Are you someone who is feeling insignificant in life? Someone whom the world does not look up high? Are you someone feeling that right now life has nothing to offer and your faith in the Lord does not seem to bring a great breakthrough?
Do not let your heart be troubled, you are not the only one sailing in the same boat. When Joseph was in the prison, he interprets the dream of the cup bearer and as a favor he asks the cup bearer to remember him before the King (Gen 40:14). However, the cup bearer forgets the petition of Joseph (Gen 40:23). All that Joseph expected was a release from his current condition. Probably he thought of going out and leading a decent life. But the plan of God was even greater than that of Joseph. Joseph's expectation to find favor with the cup bearer and then a release from the King did not happen. Joseph continued to be in the prison for 2 yrs. But at the appropriate time, when the King had a dream and was seeking wise men to interpret his dream, the cup bearer remembered about Joseph. And all these finally led to Joseph becoming the governor of Egypt.
The plan and the purpose of God is not revealed to His children. And that calls for a walk of faith. But the end result is this...That God chooses the simple people of the world to make Himself a great name through their life...
The Word of God says,
1 Corinthians 1:27-28 (New Living Translation)
27.Instead, God chose things the world considers foolish in order to shame those who think they are wise. And he chose things that are powerless to shame those who are powerful. 28 God chose things despised by the world, things counted as nothing at all, and used them to bring to nothing what the world considers important.
Whatever you may be or your life may be currently, God has chosen you for a purpose. And His purpose and plan for you is for a tremendous demonstration of His power and glory in your life.
