Where Are You - Part 2
Do you know where you’re going, do you know your journey or your race?
Each of us has a race, some of us might have a long race (Joseph) and some of us might have a short race (John the Baptist).
Joseph and Christ = Us
But what does this have anything to do with me? Let’s take a look at Joseph journey.
Joseph was favored by the Father. He had a very powerful dream, however, he didn’t know everything that was going to happen. He was filled with pride, cockiness, etc…things that needed to be purged. He needed to humble himself.
So God took him on a journey….
- Betrayal – Family, blood, church, physical pain
- Pit – When he was thrown into the pit by his brothers, darkness
- Out of Pit – He got out of the pit, but wasn’t long until….
- Sold/Slavery – “Feeling” of Pain
- Prison – Increase of pain
- Favor in Prison – He had favor in prison
- Butler/Baker – The will of God – Speak the truth in love – To not do it is going out the will of God
- Endured – Butler forgot about Joseph
- Pharaoh’s House – Destiny/Race/Perfected
12 years all together
Carefully take a look and read through Joseph’s journey. Ask your self where YOU are based on 1 -9.
Great faith will be tested greatly.
These days ahead will determine (endured, tempted in this life) and you have to make a judgement of whats really important.
Do not fear when you are tempted or going through tribulation (tough times). Fear causes you to be cautious instead of going forward. Fearing is not sinning, camping out in it is.
