WHERE IS THE LORD WHEN ALL FALLS

                                 WHERE IS THE LORD WHEN ALL FALLS

           The book of Genesis 39-40 talks of the story of Joseph from when he was hated of his brothers, thrown into a pit,sold to Potiphar in Egypt as a slave, put into prison unjustly and later forgotten by the kings butler is one, many will call or term, a curse story and Joseph a curse person. Listen if Joseph was alive today and went through all these, and he was to see the many so call ministers of God, they would see all kinds of evil against him and lead him into all kinds of deliverance services if not "sowing seed" practices. Yes he would be blamed for all his misfortune. The question that will come up in most lips will probably be ,"WHERE IS GOD?"
           We usually see evil in everything, and every hardship, and it is either we blame the devil or some other persons for all the misfortunes we may encounter in our existence.Yet we never never want or have time to find out what is happening, and what is the will of God in all things. Our mind are only focused on justifying ourselves and never looking into things to see what may be the will of God. Certainly i am not saying we should fold our hands and allow every evil that befalls us, but that in trouble ,pain and hurt, what is the Lord trying to do through it, never forgetting Romans 8:28  And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. Yes i believe that in trouble, hurt disappointments etc, instead of us manifesting our choleric behaviors and blaming all the people around us, may we like the Lord Jesus Christ, seek the will of God, know it, live it, and obey it for we are certain that Romans 8:28 is true. I therefore plead with you to always seek the Lord in all things and to know what His purposes are.
          To Him who has given us life through the sacrifice of His son Jesus Christ on the cross, be glory, honor praise, power, majesty and might forever and ever.
