He Will Take Care of You ~ F260 Week 5

No matter where life takes us, the turns and detours it may make...we can never be lost to God's love. God always knows exactly where we are. His love is immeasurable. It is inexhaustible. God can do so much more than we can ask or image. As believers, we will always have hardships in this fallen world. However, it is impossible to be separated from the love of Christ. Jesus died so that we can have a personal relationship with Him, forever! We can feel totally secure with Him, not matter what or where life's detours take us. If we believe these promises, then we don't have to fear in overwhelming circumstances. As you continue reading about Joseph this week, you will see his life is still one detour after another; but also be sure to notice that the LORD WAS WITH JOSEPH, the LORD BLESSED where Joseph was, and the LORD MADE all he did PROSPER...even in bad circumstances, God is still in control and can use those situations to ultimately bring Him honor and glory, or to serve a purpose in our lives, if we will submit and obey. Joseph may not have understood why he had to to be an Egyptian slave for 11 years while he was in the process; but when he had the opportunity to save his whole family from the famine, he was thankful. God can use what others mean for evil to fulfill His ultimate plan. Joseph was rejected, sold into slavery, and imprisoned. God meant all of the events in Joseph's life for good...Joseph just couldn't see the whole picture at the time he was walking through those detours. Don't ever question God's ability to take care of you...don't ever give up hope that God has wonderful things in store for you!

This week in F260 (January 28th - February 1st) we are reading through almost all the end of Genesis.
Monday: Genesis 39-40
Tuesday: Genesis 41
Wednesday: Genesis 42-43
Thursday: Genesis 44-45
Friday: Genesis 46-47

Our memory verses for this week are Romans 8:28-30 and Ephesians 3:20-21. 
Romans 8:28-30: 28 And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. 29 For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.30 And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified.
Ephesians 3:20-21: 20 Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
