SETBACK

  SETBACK Genesis 39:10-21 Devotional:- “Then Joseph's master took him and put him into the prison, a place where the king's prisoners were confined. And he was there in the prison” (v.20) NKJV Most people do not yet understand that what we call a setback, a lot of time is a set-up to set us to our top. Setback, as viewed by people, is demotion, but it is rather an opportunity to retreat and re-fire for greater victory. When the purpose of a thing is not known, men are bound to abuse it. Today, we read about Joseph, who was thanking God for being promoted from a slave to a house overseer. He always tried to put his best into his assignment, and by this, he always had joy. At this time, the enemy wanted to damage his testimony by the temptation of sin, but he stood his ground for God (2 Timothy 2:22). But then he faced something like a demotion to prison.

CONNECT

CONNECT

Devotional:- “But remember me when it is well with you, and please show kindness to me; make mention of me to Pharaoh, and get me out of this house” (V 14).

        God has kept all that you will ever need inside relationship. The reason people lack is because they could not connect with people God has placed their help in their hand. That is why all of us must understand the need to connect with people God has placed around us for our solution. To connect is to be introduced to someone who is also open to accept you. To connect in marriage relationship is to open up for your partner and allow him or her to be permanently part of your life.

The wisdom of God to connect everywhere is revealed to us in the scripture. We saw Joseph, a mere prisoner with no one to bail him, yet, he got connected with people who recommended him at the palace of Pharaoh and he was released. This wisdom is to willingly be a solution to people in trouble. It is often said that a friend in need is a friend indeed (Matthew 25:31-40).

No matter how highly placed anyone is, they will have needs. When you can make yourself a solution, people will open up to you and you will be allowed in their homes. Observe the challenge of your spouse and help to solve the problem, then you will be connected. You cannot force yourself on people but there is no one you cannot connect with. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, make me a solution to all around me.

“SOMEONE NEED WHAT YOU KNOW HOW TO DO, IDENTIFY THEM AND HELP THEM”
