You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives.
(Genesis 50:20)
Pray
You are the God who works all things together for good for those who love You and are called according to Your purpose. Just as Joseph declared in this verse, what was meant for evil, You turned into good. I come before You today, knowing that You are in control and that You have a plan for my life. Help me to trust in Your timing and Your sovereignty, even when I cannot see the bigger picture. Give me the strength to endure trials and tribulations, knowing that You can use them for my ultimate good and Your glory.
Please help me to have a heart like Joseph’s, to forgive those who have wronged me and to seek reconciliation. Allow me to see the bigger picture and to trust in Your perfect plan for my life, even when things seem difficult and painful. I thank You for Your faithfulness and for the promise that You will work all things together for my good.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
