Turning any situation around for Good
Bible verse As for you, you thought evil against me, but God meant it for good, to bring about that many people should be kept alive, as they are this day. Genesis 50:20
Whatever may have e happened to us in the past, it does not have to dictate our future. Regardless of what people may have tried to do to us. God can take it and turn it for good. Romans 8:28 says, In all things God works for the good for those who love him."
In genesis 37-50, Joseph's brothers meant evil against him. They devised a plan to destroy him by selling him into slavery in Egypt. But in the end, Joseph became second in command to Pharaoh and was used by God to save many lives.
Whatever happens in your life, remember that God is on your side. He will build your life, your reputation , your family and your career. Be thankful that He is with you, put your confidence in Him and prepare to be amazed at how He can turn every situation around for His Glory!
Lord I am grateful that You can turn any and every situation in my life around for good. Help me today to focus on You rather than my past. And thank You that You can take even the most painful parts of life and fashion something beautiful from them. In your name we pray. AMEN
