CAPACITY

 *Text :  Gen 41:40 ISV* 

 *So you are to be appointed in charge over my palace, and all of my people are to do whatever you command them to do. Only the throne will have greater authority than you.”* 

I'm sure you are familiar with the story of Joseph, the dreamer. He was called because he wouldn't be silent about the spectacular dreams God was showing him about himself. 

You don't have to be silent about the vision God has called you to do. Surely, not everyone will agree with you from the beginning. But note that  *you don't need everyone's approval before you obey God.* 

 *The truth is your  critics today will celebrate your success tommorrow if you used their criticism as a stepping stone and not as stumbling block.* 

Habakkuk 2:2 says ```And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.``` 

So Joseph announced his dreams and it fetched him plenty enemies. 

You may be going through challenging moments right now simply because the enemy has seen the glorious assignment ahead of you and he wants you to chicken out before your manifestation.
It's important to know that your real enemy is the devil, he only employs willing humans (agents) to carry out His intentions. Look past the agents and deal with the real boss(the devil).

 *Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, and seeking whom he may devour:* 1 Peter  5:8.

Joseph was betrayed, sold into slavery,  lied against,  and sent to prison unjustly. 
While going through these daunting challenges,  instead of spending his time and energy to build up resentments and bitterness against his offenders,  Joseph was busy building capacity. 

Don't waste your life on side attractions,  focus on the assignment He has given you because your day of manifestation is fast approaching. 


 *BIBLE READING* : 
Gen. 41:1-57..

 *PRAYER FOCUS* 

1. I receive the grace and wisdom to build capacity in my time of preparation so I will not be ashamed in my time of manifestation.

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

WHEN GOD IS SILENT(2)

Text: Matthew 4:1  *Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.*  We saw yesterday that God was not pleased with many israelites that left Egypt for the promised land  (Corinthians 10:5).  A good percentage of the Israelites were overthrown in the wilderness.   Wilderness experience is not what any child of God desires, but it is an experience God sends or allows his children go through. In Deuteronomy 8:2, God says that He *LED* the Isrealites through the wilderness for forty years to humble them, to prove them, and to know what was in their heart whether they would keep his commandments or not.  Our Lord Jesus Christ was also *LED* into the wilderness by the Spirit of the Lord to be tempted by the devil. You will  notice there is a similar feature of the number *40(forty)* between these two wilderness experiences. That is, that of the Israelites and our Lord Jesus Christ. The Israelites spent 40years, Jesu...

GULLIBLE BUT INTELLIGENT

Text : Mat 25:31-32  *When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:*   *And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:*  Have you ever wondered why Jesus compared His followers to sheep and not goats?  Sheep has reputation for being stupid, defenceless and harmless creatures that mope about on hillsides doing not very much. They are good for two things: being eaten and producing wool. According to a study by Keith Kendrick, he said in reality, Sheep are actually surprisingly intelligent, with impressive memory and recognition skills. They build friendships, stick up for one another in fights, and feel sad when their friends are  sent to slaughter. The truth is that sheep are far smarter than we know., All these reasons and more are the basis for Jesus' comparism of His followers with sh...
