The voice in me

So far we have learned that there is always a promise. But with each promise comes a problem..when problem arise we tend to be negative and doubt God. But the trials we face don’t mean that the promises are lies rather it requires us to have Faith and belive in God . Also that it’s only God’s word that tells us the truth about who we really are and only He can help us get there .

Let’s look at the second ….

the story of Joseph.

He had a promise (a dream) but found himself in a pit, to being a slave ,then  prisoner . This was the total opposite of what he truly was. We were never told what went through Joseph’s mind in all this but the fruits speak for themselves.  As a slave he was the man in charge, in prison like wise. Why is it that despite him being in just devastating places he seemed to be excelling.  We are only told one thing, that they could tell that God was with him. He did not compromise his belief when Potifas wife wanted to seduce him. He did not stop believing in dreams even though his own had led him to the pits. He even went on to interpreting dreams for others. He chose to remain faithful in what he knew and also with what he had.

For many of us this has not been the story. We had the promise (dream) ,it led us to the pits and we gave up. I encourage you today to pick yourself up from where you have fallen, start believing again. And be faithful with what you have where ever it is that you are. Being rooted in the word means believing and living what the word says. Then shall you be planted by the waters and bear much fruit.

Where have you rooted yourself in? Frustrations and doubts? Why not try God, He provides living waters.
