Be fruitful in and out of season...!

Genesis 39:2-4, 20-23 NKJV

The Lord was with Joseph, and he was a successful man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian. And his master saw that the Lord  was with him and that the Lord  made all he did to prosper in his hand. So Joseph found favor in his sight, and served him. Then he made him overseer of his house, and all that he had he put under his authority. Then Joseph’s master took him and put him into the prison, a place where the king’s prisoners were confined. And he was there in the prison. But the Lord was with Joseph and showed him mercy, and He gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison. And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph’s hand all the prisoners who were in the prison; whatever they did there, it was his doing. The keeper of the prison did not look into anything that  was under Joseph’s authority, because the Lord was with him; and whatever he did, the Lord made it prosper.

Shalom! Day #85. Do you know that even in tough and difficult times the Lord is always with you? Let's pray. Father, thank You for being with us in every kind of situations of our lives, for You have promised that You will never leave us nor forsake us. In Jesus name we ask and pray,  amen!

Today, we're going to look into Joseph's life. Joseph had gone through tough and difficult times of his life. Being thrown into the pit, then sold as a slave to the Egyptians, then was in the house of his Egyptian master and then thrown into the prison and was given a huge responsibility to govern Egypt. In all this rough, tough and difficult situations, Joseph did not deny God, did not complain, did not curse his brethren, did not fight back. He remained in peace. The only secret Joseph had was, the Lord was with him in every secods of his life and the Lord prospered him in everything he did.

You can prosper even in the midst of rough, tough and difficult times with one condition you must have the Lord with you. Be fruitful in and out of season. Be fruitful in and out rough, tough and difficult times. The key is that the Lord is with you, without the Lord's presence and intervention you cannot do anything, although you do, it may seems to be prospering but no.

Psalms 1:3 NKJV

He shall be like a tree Planted by the rivers of water, That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he does shall prosper.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!
