Being a blessing!
The Lord was with him and caused everything he did to succeed. (Genesis 39:23 NLT)
Success is being where God wants us to be! This may be in lowly servant hood or in a great position.
Joseph accepted God’s choice of where he had to be. This includes being thrown into a pit, sold into slavery, beaten and jailed after false accusations, and waiting for years in dark dungeons.
No matter where Joseph was, he saw the opportunity to demonstrate the goodness of His God to the people in need. It is astounding to notice that nothing could stop Joseph being a blessing!
Secret was, Joseph had resolved in his mind that he will be a blessing to his authorities and help them with God’s help.
He was a blessing to his father Jacob. He was a blessing to Potiphar. He was a blessing to the jailor. He was a blessing to Pharaoh. Finally he was a blessing to the whole world!
This is the way of being a blessing!
Amen!
