God answer them

  

Text: Genesis 41:16(KJV)

And Joseph answered Pharoah, saying, it is not in me, God shall give Pharoah an answer of peace.

The answer is truly not in us, like Joseph recognized before Pharoah that he is handicapped without God.  The truth is, it takes a lot of humility to recognize the hand of God in your gift or talent and not try to take the glory to your self effort. From our scripture above, we can see that Joseph knew he had no power to interpret dreams, which made him wholly depend on the influence and revelation of God. Although, he knew God was helping him, he never tried to take the glory. We can see that he clearly expressed that it is not in him but in God’s deposit of ability in his life.

 2Corinthians 3:5- Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think anything as ourselves, but our sufficiency is of  God.  Although God is the one that makes away and gives us all we need, we still have to be ready or go through the process of preparation to get that assigned position for us. In the case of Joseph, he had been in the process of preparation and equiping before he got to the high position of being a Governor.  -Remember, for you to get that position set up for you, there is sacrifice attached, and the sacrifice will be what you can carry, so endure to the end. Brethren, always remind yourself, it is in God concerning that matter and God will help us in Jesus name.

PRAYER POINTS:

1. Father, help me to be sensitive to know that it is not in me but in God to give that stubborn pursuer an answer as to enthrone me in Jesus name.

ACTION QUOTE: Remember, your strength is in God and not in man.
