TOPIC : THE SIN OF INGRATITUDE
(Special edition)
TEXT : GENESIS 40:30-23
[20]And it came to pass the third day, which was Pharaoh's birthday, that he made a feast unto all his servants: and he lifted up the head of the chief butler and of the chief baker among his servants.
[21]And he restored the chief butler unto his butlership again; and he gave the cup into Pharaoh's hand:
[22]But he hanged the chief baker: as Joseph had interpreted to them.
[23]Yet did not the chief butler remember Joseph, but forgat him.
Dearly beloved, the Bible said that "he forgat him".
Why did he foget?
Because most men suffer from ingratitude.
They only remember you when they need you.
As a young pastor, I often watch people with excitement as they give testimony and end it with " I will never leave this church, you will be my pastor forever".
Two months latter, they are in another church.
The Butler forgot Joseph, but God remembered him.
How will this Butler face prime minister Joseph the next day in the palace?
Don't be like 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
