  JOSEPH  Genesis 50:15-23 Devotional:- “Then his brothers also went and fell down before his face, and they said, "Behold, we are your servants”" (v.18) NKJV   🎙 Victory Daily Devotional JOSEPH Pastor Remi Agbabiaka  ·  Genesis 50:15-23 Remi Agbabiaka Outreach Ministry (RAOM)  |  victorydaily.blogspot.com One of those who encountered divine victory in the word of God was Joseph HHhhhh . And the God who gave him victory has not changed. Right from his youth, he had been facing challenges from his brothers. They hated him because of his dreams. They never wanted his star to shine. The hatred was so much that they planned to kill him, but God preserved him. That same God will also preserve you. He was sold as a slave to Egypt, yet God was with him, and He prospered him.   Even in Egypt he was faced with a lot of challenges because he was standing f...

IMPATIENCE

IMPATIENCE

SCRIPTURE: HEBREWS 4:8-13    
DEVOTIONAL:- “For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart”. (Vs. 12)

    One major thing which many people are not careful about that can hinder their prayers is impatience. It is natural for a person to be impatient because of our human inability to manage our temperamental weaknesses. This is why we need to have quality understanding of the ways of the kingdom of God.

The king of this kingdom is God and His ways are different from ours (Isaiah 55:8-9). He has His own eternal plan and He made us to fulfill a part of His plans (Jeremiah 29:11, Isaiah 43:21). In God's agenda, there are things He will not do according to our plans but according to His own plan. This then calls for our maturity to work with Him in humility and endurance for our good and for His glory.

You need to stop comparing your life with others' (2 Cor. 10:12). We are not created to behave the same way. We may sometimes be impatient and angry with God, but that is not enough for us to act in unseeming ways. There are times when some Christians change their church family because of impatience. This is really not a step of spiritual maturity. 

Friend, you need to covenant your life to stay with Jesus and remain in your church. This is because it takes planting to flourish (Psalms 92:13). Impatience makes you change your mind in doubt (James 1:6-8). It confuses the angels assigned on your prayers. So, watch out. Be mature to be patience with God. Then you will always receive answers to your prayers. Peace!

Prayer: Lord, help me to patiently wait on you for my desires
