God has earlier revealed to Joseph that he will be a ruler even over his brothers. Yet for many years it was not looking like it. To worsen the case, he was constantly hated by his brothers. They hated him deeply from their heart but the bible never recorded a time of grievous reaction from Joseph. He was a comported man. The brothers threw him into the pit and sold him as a slave to the Egyptians. None of these moved him. He believed in his dream that he would become what God had destined him to be notwithstanding his challenges. If they had left him in the pit, he would still be great, they were ignorant of this (Genesis 37:20).
People may be doing anything to you but you must be positive about yourself. Don’t let that bug you. Joseph became great because he was positive and not moved. If your situation always determines your mood, you have been conquered by it. When he made himself known to his brothers, he handled the situation well by not complaining. He had always known that they could not stop him from achieving his dream.
Friend, no one can stop you, take your place in faith and be mature. Stop reacting to situations unnecessarily. You will achieve your dream.
Prayer:
Lord, help me to refuse to be trapped by situations.
