TOPIC: UNDERSTANDING LOYALTY
(Special edition)
TEXT: GENESIS 39:1-9
A superior makes a loyal protege his companion
God rewarded Jesus' loyalty to him by being with him.
And he that sent me is with me: the Father has not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him - John 8:29.
Because God was always with Jesus, He moved in the strange dimensions of miracles. Jesus of Nazareth... went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him - Acts 10:38.
God's presence with Joseph made him prosper. And his master saw that the LORD was with him, and that the LORD made all that he did to prosper in his hand - Genesis 39:3.
Joseph kept God's presence by staying away from sins.
how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God? - Genesis 39:9.
King Saul was afraid of David because he saw that God was with him.
And Saul was afraid of David, because the LORD was with him, and was departed from Saul - 1 Samuel 18:12. God's presence is the elixir for one who is surrounded by enemies.
And David went on, and grew great, and the LORD God of hosts was with him - 2 Samuel 5:10. Greatness in God's kingdom is a function of God's presence.
God's presence is acquired by been loyal to him.
God bless you.
With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.
Your case is not bigger than God.
May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Your Victory is already guaranteed
It is well, do not give up, with God all things are possible
(Please be a blessing to seven persons by sending to them our devotionals)
