TRANSFORMATION
GENESIS 45:3-5
- Joseph said to his brothers, ” I am Joseph ! Is my father still living ?” But his brothers were not able to answer him, because they were terrified at his presence.
- Then Joseph said to his brothers, “come close to me”. When they had done so, he said, “I am your brother Joseph, the one you sold into Egypt !
- And now, do not be distressed and do not be angry with yourselves for selling me here, because it was to save lives that God sent me ahead of you”. ( NIV ).
- The brothers of Joseph could not recognize him. The splendours around Joseph surpassed the imaginations of his brothers; ‘their’ Joseph was supposedly languishing in slavery or even dead. They had earlier bowed before ‘ this’ man and ‘this’ man could not be Joseph. In fact, they had sold Joseph into a life of misery and penury to forestall obeisance to him, so ‘this’ man, this great ruler, could not possibly be ‘their’ Joseph !
But, it was ‘their’ Joseph and they had bowed before him. They had failed to stop Joseph from fulfilling his destiny. Their wicked deeds notwithstanding, the God of Joseph had fought for him and uplifted him above his enemies.
I declare to you this day that surely as the Lord lives, your detractors will marvel at your great transformation from nobody to celebrity when God has perfected the awesome work of your uplifting and fulfilment, in the precious name of Jesus Christ.
Joseph had to repeat his introduction of himself, ” I am Joseph…” because the brothers were so terrified at his presence that they had become ‘deaf ‘.
I declare to you this day that God is about to elevate your status in a bewildering manner that will terrify your persecutors, in Jesus Christ’s name.
To crown the humiliating experience of his brothers, Joseph refused to apportion any blame to them despite their deeds of wickedness. Joseph saw the brothers’ act as the act of God to make him a preserver of lives. He saw his brothers as vessels of God’s plans for the fulfilment of his destiny: the brothers meant it for destruction of Joseph but God planned it for his elevation.
I stand on the Word of God and by the unction of the Holy Spirit that God will turn the diabolical devices of your detractors into ladders of elevation for you, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.
Beloved, I see you celebrating. I see others rejoicing with you. I see your unrepentant foes wailing. I see laughter replacing tears of sorrow, and I see you Divinely uplifted from nobody to somebody, in the precious name of Jesus Christ.
*** Cleave to Jesus Christ, get abundant life; Seek the Kingdom of God, get every other things;
Joseph refused to sin against God by fornicating: aspire to lead a life of holiness.
Win souls for God’s Kingdom, get fulfilment;
We’re pilgrims on earth, strive after everlasting life with our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.
Trust God, stay Godly , be triumphant.
