Your Presence Means Blessings
And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a
prosperous man; and he was in the house of his
master the Egyptian (Genesis 39:2).
As a Christian, no matter what happens around
you, refuse to fret, fear or be discouraged,
because you’re the seed of Abraham. Always choose
to see things from that perspective. You might say,
“But I’m going through difficult times right now; I even
just lost my job.” Still, refuse to be discouraged or
dismayed. In fact, if you’d only see from the perspective
of who you really are in Christ, you’d realise that you
didn’t lose your job; the organisation probably lost you!
You’re a treasure, a gem, a star, and a champion!
Your presence anywhere means blessings, because
you’re the blessed of the Lord! You own the world.
Your potentials, abilities, and wisdom are limitless! Your
presence in an organisation means blessings for the
organisation and everyone in that organisation.
Now, this isn’t for the guy who’s ineffective at
work and gets laid-off; no; I’m talking about Abraham’s
seed! Abraham’s seed is effective; he’s fruitful and
productive in every good work. Whatever he does
prospers; that’s his heritage. This is how you must
think. Consider Joseph, even though he had been
sold into slavery, falsely accused and imprisoned, he
was still a blessing, so much so that he was placed
in charge of all the other prisoners. Prior to that, as a
slave in Potiphar’s house, Potiphar recognised that God
blessed him because of Joseph, and made Joseph the
overseer of his entire estate.
You’re blessed and you carry the blessing. Where
you go, God goes; what and whom you bless, is blessed.
Because of you, your school, neighbourhood, city or
country is blessed. Recall God’s Word to Abraham, “…
and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be
blessed” (Genesis 26:4). That’s exactly what we do;
we convey and distribute blessings. Hallelujah!
Prayer
Dear Father, I thank you for blessing me and making me
a blessing. You’ve made me prosperous and effective;
a blessing to this world, and a dispenser and distributor of your
righteousness, love, kindness and goodness,
in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
