God's making a way

Genesis 37:4-36

Luke 24

It’s impossible to be led by the spirit of God and be without an opportunity and a way to move from one level of divine glory unto another.

However many times that not when God gives you an assignment and we execute the assignment to finality we find ourselves we nothing coming up next for some time.

And may many times than not find ourselves falling into the trap of feeling desperate like they is nothing major is ever going to take place.

Without a doubt it’s important to resist feeling and acting desperate whenever you find yourself in a place where it seems like everything has come to a closure.

The most effective way to overcome desperation when your story seems as if it has come to end is by giving God the glory, the honor, and the victory as much as to give God thanks.


Joseph was thrown into an empty well by his brothers and instead of reacting to situation in desperation because they seemed as if they was no way for him to be brought out of the empty well, Joseph responded with a heart that looked unto God with gladness and thanksgiving.

Because he understood his brother's actions will not be over and ahead the will of God for his life.

Hence God sent a convoy of the Ishmaelites whom he used to save Joseph out of the empty well.

It’s quite possible that life has thrown you into an empty well and in your understanding there is no way for you to emerge out of the empty well that you find yourself in.

And being desperate seems to be the easiest of options in the event of trying to figure out how to get out of the empty well but if you can only start by giving God praise and Thanksgiving then God will without a doubt make away for you.

An empty well is symbolic of a place of stagnation and a place of no way as well as a place of not going to the next level of your life.

The empty well is also symbolic of a place where progress does not take place as much as a place where dreams are frustrated.

The diabolic plan of the devil functioning through the jealousy and the envy of his brothers for the life of Joseph was designed to make sure that Joseph's dreams are frustrated, disappointed, and lifeless.

So in throwing Joseph in the empty well the devil and Joseph's were confident that his dreams that had been a reason of envy for them were never going to come to pass.

There is plan of the devil that has been designed to frustrate your dreams, your progress and to suffocate the life in your vision.

And the only way to make the plan of the devil work easy against you is by acting desperately every now and then you find yourself at a place where your dreams seem to be frustrated and far from being realized.

Desperation will kill you faster than the empty well that life has thrown you into.

So never be desperate when your dreams seem not to be coming to pass, never lose hope simply because everyone is having it well and you’re not.

The God who gave you a vision and a dream to make a difference in your lifetime is going to make a way for you and it does not matter how far deep is the empty well that the enemies of your dreams have thrown you into.

The enemies of your dreams think you are not going to be able to emerge out of that place dryness and emptiness because they believe it’s far too deep for you to come above the place of dryness and emptiness.

However the God who made away amidst the red sea is going to make away for you and you going to emerge out of that place of dryness and emptiness.

The moment you start to give thanks and praise unto God while in that place of emptiness, dryness, and stagnation then God will surely make away for you.

Jesus spent three days in the grave but after three days he resurrected from the dead because God Almighty made away.

Hence the God who made a way for Jesus to be resurrected from the dead is going to make a way for you to come out of that place that you so not desire to be stayed in by the power of the Holy Spirit in the name of Jesus.
