Joseph’s Journey – The Power of Forgiveness (Dream to Destiny  – Series – Part 7)

The Lord is in control of every situation and everything going on. He has stored something great and special in your life.

Don’t run away from the situation you are facing right now. Where you are right now is the same place where God has kept you, He knows where you are and what you’re going through.

Even in front of the Red Sea, God opened a new door for them. The same way God is about to do something new in your life that you would never imagine.

Genesis 45-50

Freedom by forgiving:
Joseph’s brothers were biased and rude to him, but Joseph was mature in that he not only forgave them, but he was also able to see that God had a plan that he was working through with the circumstances in Joseph’s life

Joseph dealt with forgiveness in a way that the promises of God would not be delayed due to his anger inside of him. Similarly, there’s a lot of pain and hatred that you carry due to the negative lifestyle being carried in your life, there are times when everyone around you is looking in a negative manner. They more you practice forgiveness in this journey, the more blessed you will be.

Offense controls our behavior many times, that’s why failure happens because offense dominates over our life.

Joseph stated forgiveness has a major role to play in your journey with God. Forgiveness is a big part in God’s plan.

When Joseph saw his brothers, he was totally changed due to God’s presence over him and due to the act of forgiveness which enabled him to continue his journey with God. Reaching the palace is not the promise, but for Joseph, he had to go through the process of prosperity for 9 years to reach his promise.

When God gives you a position, don’t try to act according to your own knowledge because God is looking over your life viewing your attitude of forgiveness.

Many times because of not being able to forgive, you are missing many of your blessings and promises.

By forgiving, God is recieving us back to His family. Let all of God’s children practice the art of forgiveness, let the Spirit minister to forgive others because that forgiveness plays a major role in life.

When the intention of the enemy is to harm you, those harming situations will be a blessing in your life. You may be going through pain, but the Spirit of God says this enables you to reach your destiny when battling the higher realms. Exercise the spirit of forgiveness in your life.

Forgiveness helps remove pain from the heart. Come out of the jail, come out of the settlement and come out of that unforgiving nature. When you don’t forgive, you are stopping your own promise. Prayers don’t reach heaven when your unforgiving nature prevents you from staying in this world.

Many times you can’t enjoy the presence of God cause you can’t forgive. Never let I unforgiveness nature prevent you from reaching your destiny.

How we live our life today determines how we responded to the circumstances in the past. Joseph practiced forgiveness for approximately 21 years to reach his end destiny

Grace doesn’t go with work, it is freely given. Grace is an opportunity to exercise freedom.

Luke 23:34 – “Father forgive them for they do not know what they are doing”
