I went back to the story of Joseph today and I had highlighted two places in the notes on the side at some point of how Joseph replied to the cupbearer, the baker and also to Pharaoh.
He said, “Don’t look for answers from men, but look to God.”
(me paraphrasing, of course)
Hmmm…I mean, we do that a lot, don’t we? We will ask everyone else their opinion about a situation, seek advice from the stars or even just reason within ourselves…all while God is saying, “Yo…I’m right here where you left me.” (me paraphrasing again 😉).
Listen, you can ask Facebook all day long. You can talk face to face with some very wise Christian counsel, but at the end of the day you will find if you will seek the Lord, there you will find peace for your situation.
Whisper.
Cry.
Moan.
Scream.
He knows your heart and He is able to do exceedingly abundant above all you could ever ask or think!
Yep. Look no further than the Lord. He is sufficient in every area of your life. His Word has every answer you will ever need. Joseph got the answers he needed because He was focused on the Lord.
Put your spiritual magnifying glass on Him…examine Him…and prove Him. I can promise you this…you will see things more clearly than ever before.
Genesis 40 & 41
