We were all called out of darkness into God's marvelous ligt.All of us were at one time a prisoner,caught up in the of the wiles of the enemy.We were all sold into the bondage of sin, by the lust of the flesh,lust of eye and pride of life.But thanks be to God that he blessed us with salvation through the death of His son Jesus Christ, that we might save others.
In our story today Joseph was made head of all Egypt.A journey that started when his brothers out of envy,sold him into slavery,and ended with him being a father to Pharaoh,lord of his house and ruler throughout all the land of Egypt(vs.8).But God didn't do all of this for Joseph for him to be a big shot,no God blessed Joseph that he might be a blessing to others.God didn't reveal Himself to us so that we can sit high and look low,He didn't deliever us that we might wear important titles,sit in the high seats of self-righteousness.No God saved us that we might reach back and save someone else. God revealed the dangers that lied ahead to us that we might tell others that are lost in darkness that there is a famine coming and only those who are here in the care of the Lord shall be saved.God blessed us to bless others.
God shared Jesus with us.He is not your to keep,he is not to be your best kept secret,He was given to you that you might share Him with all you see."It is more blessed to give than to receive" it is in sharing Christ with others that we are truly blessed.Receive Christ and be blessed,share Christ and be a blessing.......
