🍲 *SHABACH YESHUA ENDLESS GOODNESS DAILY DEVOTIONAL* Thursday 9th February 2023 ____ *TOPIC:* *MIRACULOUS TRANSFORMATION FROM FORGIVENESS

**KEY VERSE:* 

"After Job had prayed for his friends, the Lord restored His fortunes and gave him twice as much he had before. (Job 42:10, NIV).

📖 *TODAY'S READING:* 

Genesis 50:15-21

📜 *ONE YEAR BIBLE STUDY PLAN* 

Exodus 30-32

 *COMMENTARY* 

The account of Joseph in the scriptures is a super and classical study of forgiveness. An eleventh son among dozen children of Jacob. He zoomed from the eleventh to become the captain of the dozen. Picked from the pit but alighted at the palace, yet kept his cool. He was disdained by his siblings but he committed his case unto Him who judges righteously. He was lied against by his mistress and justice was denied him, was incarcerated and had no opportunity to defend himself. He gave good free services to his mates but was forgotten when the opportunity called. With all of these gallons of woes, because of his spiritual sensitivity, he remained faithful, never sold out, built impeccable pedigree, and won the confidence of mates and masters. In due course, was appointed a prime minister that effectively and efficiently prepared Egypt to survive seven years of economic

downturn which his mindless and wicked siblings were the net beneficiaries.

At the translation of their father, the siblings had strong apprehension of a payback but Joseph told them not to fear because it was not about him but God arranged everything to save lives. He promised to continue to take care of them.

Joseph's positive response to all the calamities that he

encountered made God arrange the aggregate evils to transmute into positive blessings that lifted his head, chest and shoulder above all his contemporaries.

Just as Job forgave his bigoted friends, and prayed for them and God restored his captivity and all his lost items were replenished in the double fold, making him better off at the end as seen in our key verse, so shall God transform us as we genuinely forgıve our

offenders

How to respond to issues of life will, to a large extent, determine the outcome.
