Am I in the place of God?
You meant evil against me.
God meant it for good (from Genesis 50:19-20).

Trust God. And pray.

The Lord is my Shepherd

“The Lord is my shepherd . . . I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever (Psalm 23:1,6).”

At the end of our days may we, like Jacob, be able to say, “God has been my shepherd all my life long to this day (Genesis 48:15).”

Jacob assumed Joseph was dead (see Genesis 37:33).

Years later, when he was reunited with Joseph he said, “I never expected to see your face, and behold, God has let me see your offspring also (Genesis 48:11).”

Expect blessing when you pray.

The Lord’s Steadfast Love

Joseph was unjustly imprisoned. The Lord didn’t change his situation. Instead, “The Lord was with Joseph and showed him steadfast love (Genesis 39:21).”

The Lord’s steadfast love don’t always look as we think it will.

Remember that as you pray.

God saw Leah’s sorrow. When He blessed her, she said:

“The Lord has looked upon my affliction.”
“The Lord has heard that I am hated.“
“This time I will praise the Lord (from Genesis 29:31-35).”

Let your sorrow lead to praise.

Isaac was 40 years old when he married Rebekah. “And Isaac prayed to the Lord for his wife, because she was barren. And the Lord granted his prayer.”

Isaac was 60 years old when Rebekah gave birth to their twin boys (see Genesis 25:19-26).

Have you been praying and waiting for a long time? Don’t give up.
