Recognizing God's Purpose

Today's Word "So Joseph recognized his brothers, but they did not recognize him. Then Joseph remembered the dreams which he had dreamed about them, and said to them, 'You are spies! You have come to see the nakedness of the land!'" — Genesis 42:8-9 (NKJV) Thoughts on Today's Word  Joseph’s journey from being betrayed by his brothers to becoming a ruler in Egypt was filled with hardship, yet God’s purpose was being fulfilled. When Joseph saw his brothers, he remembered the dreams God had given him years earlier. At that moment, he realized that everything—his suffering, separation, and rise to power—was all part of God's divine plan. Often, we go through trials without understanding why. Like Joseph, we may feel forgotten or unfairly treated. But in time, God’s purpose is revealed. What once seemed like pain can become a stepping stone to a greater calling.

Starve Your Doubts

 


Today's Scripture:

Elijah went before the people and said, “How long will you waver between two opinions?”

(1 Kings 18:21, NIV)

Today's Word:

Doubt comes to us all. You have to guard your mind. You control the doorway to your thoughts. When negative thoughts come, have a “No Vacancy” sign. “Sorry, but there’s no room for you. My mind is filled with faith. I am healthy. I am blessed. I am anointed. I am victorious.” Don’t give any energy to the negative. When you dwell on those thoughts, and you start going down the road that things are not going to work out, you’re giving them life, you’re allowing them to grow. Start starving your doubts and feeding your faith. As today’s Scripture says, maybe you’ve been wavering between two opinions, going back and forth. One day you’re saying, “I believe it’s going to happen.” The next day you say, “It’s never going to work out.” You’ve been unsettled. That’s okay. Today can be a new day. You can set your mind. You can make the decision: “When I pray, I’m not just going to believe that it will happen. I’m going to believe that it did happen. I’m going to receive it when I believe.”

A Prayer for Today:

“Father, thank You that I can let the message of Jesus dwell richly in me and fill my mind with truth. Thank You that I can be free from wavering between faith and unbelief and have a settled mind that believes. I declare to doubt that there is no vacancy. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”

Have a Firm and Settled Monday.
