BECAUSE OF YOU!

(Be The Symbol Of God’s Blessings To Others) BE THE SYMBOL OF GOD’S BLESSINGS TO OTHERS

TO THE BIBLE

Genesis 39:3-4 MSG
“His master recognized that God was with him, saw that God was working for good in everything he did. He became very fond of Joseph and made him his personal aide. He put him in charge of all his personal affairs, turning everything over to him. From that moment on, God blessed the home of the Egyptian–all because of Joseph. The blessing of God spread over everything he owned….”

LET’S TALK

He was Potiphar’s slave, but Joseph was a prosperous young man. When you read from the first verse of Genesis 39, you’ll see that Potiphar recognised that the Lord was with Joseph and that all he did prospered. So he put him in charge of his entire household and everything he had; and God blessed him for Joseph’s sake (Genesis 39:1-5).

The purpose God called and chose you for is so that through you He can show forth His manifold wisdom, and demonstrate His excellence to your world. He wants to prove His extraordinary greatness in your life. Deuteronomy 28:13 says of you, “You’ll be the head and not the tail; you’ll be above only and not beneath” (Paraphrased). Being the head doesn’t necessarily mean becoming the CEO of a global organisation; it means being blessed and becoming a blessing to others.

Determine today to live up to your calling as God’s symbol of blessings to your world. Let others take notice that because of you, favour, increase, and progress have come into their lives.

GO DEEPER

Genesis 12:2
And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:

PRAY

Dear Father, I thank you for blessing me and making me a blessing. I’m a carrier and distributor of your blessing and grace to my world. Through me, you show forth your manifold wisdom and demonstrate your excellent greatness. My family, school, neighbourhood, city, and nation are all blessed for my sake, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
