Allowed for Good Reason

“As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good, to bring to pass, as it is today, to save many people alive.” (Genesis‬ ‭50:20‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

Sometimes when something bad is allowed to happen to you, even after you prayed in faith, trust that God allowed it for a good reason.

Your enemies may have intended evil towards you, but God permitted you to be placed exactly in this situation to bring about some form of good!

What you thought was for your harm, will actually turn out to be for your protection and promotion.

The harder the enemy tries to topple you, the more he ushers you towards possessing your inheritance in the promised land. This is divine irony, and it is hilariously wonderful for us!

Potiphar’s wife thought that she had set Joseph up to suffer, but it was actually God who allowed this to happen, so that Joseph could meet the chief butler at the right time. It was an awesome divine set up.

If you have read the story before, Joseph interpreted the chief butler’s prophetic dream, and this opened a way for him to meet Pharaoh in the palace, to interpret the king of Egypt’s dreams.

Without being sold into slavery and thrown into prison, Joseph would have never had developed the humility and faith needed to do his job well as the second-in-command of Egypt.

Without being in the prison at that time, Joseph would have never ended up in the palace. All the events in Joseph’s life, both good and bad, worked together for good.

There is a reason for every season of life. Treasure all the precious lessons you can because things are usually not as they initially seem.

Then what happens to your enemies who try to harm you? Haman built a gallows, hoping to get Mordecai hung on it. In the end, through the invisible hand of God’s intervention, Haman ended up being the one hung on the gallows. The enemy’s plans backfired on himself.

“Whoever digs a pit shall fall into it. Whoever rolls a stone, it will come back on him.” (Proverbs‬ ‭26:27‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

You have been predestined by God for greatness, and prepared so that you would enjoy great glory, rewards, and honor in the Messianic kingdom during the Millennium.

God works by times and seasons. At this time, people around you may even look down on you, but God sees you winning soon.

Prayerfully consider your situation now. Ask God to reveal anything He wants you to know for the next few steps you will take. He can lead you to the right place at the right time.

“The God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob” is a Bible Study series eBook about the Book of Genesis. It highlights a faithful and generous God who keeps His covenant, despite how our patriarchs of faith messed up big-time in their lives.

The apostle Paul said we are blessed together with believing Abraham, and the Book of Genesis says that Abraham was blessed in all things. Study this book to understand the kind of blessings that are laid up for you.

“Many others are also having the same problem. It’s normal, it’s ok.” This may be an excuse that the world uses, but not you child of God.

The Bible is full of characters who had problems but were delivered from them because of a faithful and gracious God!

Don’t identify with others to justify remaining in defeat. Instead, you can look at those who have a covenant relationship with God and expect the same blessings to be yours by the solid basis of covenant and not based something as shifting as feelings.

Abraham is our pattern for a blessed man. The Bible says that God had blessed him in all things. All means all.

Why was he blessed? It’s not because he was perfectly obedient to God. If you read his life story, he failed in major ways at times.

Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him as righteousness. He became righteous through faith in Yahweh, just like us who became righteous through faith in Jesus Christ.

Abraham is a blessed man because he had the gift of righteousness, and because he believed in God’s promises, even if he wasn’t perfectly obedient all the time.

Hey, this sounds like you and I! If Abraham could have the testimony that he was blessed in all things, we can have that too if we just believe in a good God.

The Bible says that we are blessed together with believing Abraham. If you see defeat in any areas of your life, don’t use the commonness of this kind of defeat as an excuse to remain in it. Expect to be blessed in all things like Abraham was because you are righteous in Christ, and whoever is righteous is a blessed person who enjoys the favor of God!
