HE MAKES IT WORK FOR GOOD
Genesis 45:5,7
But don’t be upset, and don’t be angry with yourselves for selling me to this place. It was God who sent me here ahead of you to preserve your lives.
God has sent me ahead of you to keep you and your families alive and to preserve many survivors.
We may not fully understand why someone could become "a son of perdition". Why some could plot evil as if they were created for that same purpose. (WE YET HAVE THE POWER OF CHOICE)
However what we are taught is that the Lord uses everything to bring His will to pass. Also that we are not to be that son of perdition:
Matthew 18:7
Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!
It is terrible when one is not able to ask forgiveness and make amends. It is better to stay away from playing the evil one. For our Heavenly Father is Light and in Him is no darkness at all:
1John 1:5
This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
Instead, what happens when light comes is that darkness has to leave the scene, for darkness cannot comprehend light.
Thus what matters is God's plan and intention for you. Joseph focused so much on this that the troubles he faced could not stop him.
The eyes should be on the price. Christ taught us this, furthermore we look unto Him.
Hebrews 12:2
Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of [our] faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
When our eyes is on the goal, other weights and distractions will not be strong enough to take us down. Glory to God.
What of the evil plot of Potiphar's wife, at that time it could have looked as if Joseph's world had crashed, however listen:
Genesis 45:8
So now [it was] not you [that] sent me hither, but God: and he hath made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and a ruler throughout all the land of Egypt.
Definitely Potiphar and his wife had to bow to Joseph if they were to eat!
The victory the Lord gives far surpass any temporary victory we fight for ourselves. For Daniel proclaimed about our Heavenly Father:
Daniel 2:21
And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding:
There is nothing like putting your trust in the Lord.
Isaiah 55:11
So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper [in the thing] whereto I sent it.
Thus let there be pestilence here or there, troubles and temptations. We must not loose focus. Believers must be careful yet remembering that nothing is new. Epidemic could ravish the world but the Lord keeps His own safe.
All things yet work for our good. We let go of fear, and hold on to faith. For the storm will pass away, leaving us with victory and relief.
For surely we know that the world will come to an end, of the timing we do not know, however remember that we are also timed. Even if we live up to a hundred and twenty, we will still leave the scene.
What manner of persons ought we to be? Our faith in the Heavenly Father should not waver.
HE WILL MAKE ALL THINGS WORK FOR OUR GOOD.
Romans 8:28
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to [his] purpose.
Halleluyah.
He calls us blessed.
