THE ROAD AHEAD

Genesis 41:28 NLT This will happen just as I have described it, for God revealed to Pharaoh in advance what he is about to do.

There are times when we don’t see things coming and we can either have an unpleasant shock or be thrilled to bits with what happens. We all like the thrilled to bits idea, but when we read the story of Joseph’s unfair treatment and wrongful imprisonment, but how he discovered he had a gift for interpreting dreams, we realise that even the unpleasant things are turned around by our God. In other words, God has already put in each of us all we will need to deal with our situations, and that’s important and encouraging for us to know!😊

Joseph told how God had revealed to Pharaoh what was going to happen in the next 14 years and also how to deal with them. Now that reminds us that God knows the road ahead, He knows the end from the beginning and that whatever is coming God already has a prepared plan for us to follow. He has it covered and nothing is too big or too hard for God to sort out!😊 

God wants us to have confidence for the future that whatever happens in our own lives or in the bigger picture, His plan will enable us to navigate it with the help and power of the Holy Spirit. 

We read how He was with Joseph and gave him success in all he did. Let’s never forget God is with each one of us whose faith is in Jesus, just like Joseph, and He has promised us success in all we set our hand to do when we follow His instructions. God knows what is coming so we can look to the future in the sure knowledge that He has us in the palm of His hand and He is looking after us. Lord we’re so grateful for that and thank You for it. Amen.

Romans 4:20-21 NLT Abraham never wavered in believing God’s promise. In fact, his faith grew stronger, and in this he brought glory to God. He was fully convinced that God is able to do whatever he promises.
