That is why, you hear people who have great anointing, and blessing on their life, tell of all the hell, and trials they walked through. There is a process of pushing, pressing and building your spiritual muscles up.
It is really easy to preach, teach and tell someone about God's word, but when you wake up one day and you are faced with living it, and having the faith to walk it, that is when you grow the most. Everything I walked through I know God has used to help me know HIS word deeper and learn a deeper trust in him. That he was not out to crush me, but better me.
The things that we feel will get the best of us, or take us down, is usually the thing that God is going to use to take us deeper in him, and raise us up higher in life.
I'm sure that as Joseph sat in the pit, he had to feel totally forsaken. It wasn't just people, but his family, his own brothers that through him there. Then when he got sold to as a slave I imagine he wondered where God was. But God had a plan through all Joseph walked through to set him up to be a blessing to a Nation. He strategically placed him where he had the right access. Placed the right people around him and declared favor over him. When God declares favor....things start to happen.
Whatever you are facing today. I pray God to let you know that he is setting you up for greatness. That the Holy Spirit will surround you, walk with you through the journey and cause you to be an Conqueror. Today's battle will be tomorrow's victory.
