Text: Genesis 39:1-6
Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan
Exhortation:
There are some people that enter into relationship with you and your life takes the upward and positive turn. Because of them what seems not to be working previously in your life receives life. That progress which has been hitherto slow gains unusual speed. May God bring such people into your life in Jesus name.
A very good example of such a person was Joseph, one of the sons of Jacob’s. While he was a slave in Portiphar’s house, the word of God says that the presence of the Lord was so much with him that, “From the time he put him in charge of his household and of all that he owned, the Lord blessed the household of the Egyptian because of Joseph. The blessing of the Lord was on everything Potiphar had, both in the house and in the field.” Genesis 39:5
His father too carried the same grace. When he was an employee of Laban, his uncle who happened to be an animal agriculturist, the family business took a new positive turn. His flocks were little when Jacob started the job but after 14 years they had grown to a multitude.In fact when Jacob resigned from his position Laban rejected his resignation and pleaded for his nephew to continue to serve him.
Laban said to his employee and nephew, Jacob, “ I pray thee, if I have found favour in thine eyes, tarry: for I have learned by experience that the Lord hath blessed me for thy sake.” Genesis 30:27
May God usher the Jacobs and Josephs into your life that would bring positive divine change and prosperity to you in Jesus name.
Prayer Nugget: Father, send my way destiny helpers like Jacob and Joseph in Jesus name.
