“… and lifted up Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmaelites for twenty pieces of silver: and they brought Joseph into Egypt.” Genesis 37:28. The Oasis of Hope Devotional Today! MY LIFE IS NOT FOR SALE. Joseph was born great, but is sold as a slave. A slave is a person who is d property of & wholly subject to another. Once yo life has been sold off, unless it is bought back, u may not be able to fulfill yo destiny. Beloved, there is something wrong going on that must be stopped. In fact it is called a tragedy. It is not right & should not be. Many children of God who are supposed to be kings & queens have been converted to slaves. And those who should have been d slaves are now occupying their positions. Many who should be employer of labor are still jobless. But d time has come to occupy yo rightful position! As a child of God, u’re destined for greatness. God has a purpose for yo life. Before u were born He has written certain things about yo life. Hence, yo destiny is what u’ve been called to be & to do. Yo destiny is why u were born, or d expectations of Heaven for yo life. Yo destiny is what God had in mind, d original intention of God before He created u. Yet, d fulfillment of that destiny scares d devil. Nothing gives him as much pleasure as keeping u distracted. There are three things he loves to do: (a) substitute it, (b) delay it, or (c) waste it. In today’s devotional, we see Joseph who has been foreordained to be great sold as a slave. There are powers that sell, buy or steal destiny! There is no need to be alive if yo life does not fulfill its divine destiny! Friend, do u know d real life u’re supposed to be living? Have yo enemies converted u to a servant? Look at yoself today. Perhaps u’re not who u should be now. The real lives of many people exist only in d dream. They count money in d dream but they are poor in real life. They own companies only in d dream but are jobless here. They preach to thousands of people in d dream but are still sinners here. They live in houses in d dream but here they can’t even pay their house rent here. IT IS TIME FOR A CHANGE! It is time to shake off d dust of depression, failures, poverty, of sickness, & of defeat. Arise! Do not sit any longer in d dust. Sit in yo rightful place. Take up yo authority. Sit on yo seat of power. Sit on yo throne. Take up yo rightful position. U’re not a slave! “I have seen servants upon horses and princes walking as servants upon the earth.” Ecclesiastes 10:7. Prayer: My father, whoever may be riding upon d horse meant for me; bring them down today in Jesus name. Hav an Awesome day! U’re unstoppable! Shalom.
