Acts 7: 9-10
9 “And the patriarchs, becoming envious, sold Joseph into Egypt. But God was with him 10 and delivered him out of all his troubles, and gave him favor and wisdom in the presence of Pharaoh, king of Egypt; and he made him governor over Egypt and all his house.
Quickword: But God…
Have you ever had a “But God“ encounter? A “But God” encounter is when you are facing a situation or circumstance that seems to be hopeless. There does not seem to be a answer that will turn out in your favor But God steps in. In our Quickword, Stephen is recalling how God moved in the life of Joseph. His brothers sold him into into Egypt which lead to
other situations that were not favorable unto Joseph, But God! God delivered Joseph out of all of his troubles and made him Governor over Egypt and all of his house.
- When life seems to be overwhelming God still shows up
- When God shows up, He can deliver us out of all of our troubles.
- When God shows up, He can elevate us to places we only dreamed up.
I don’t know who this is for today; I need you to know you are about to have a “But God” encounter. The bills seems insurmountable, But God; The relationship seems to be over, But God; you don’t think they are considering you for the position; But God; I know what the doctor said about your illness; But God. My beloved brother and sister; it seems overwhelming now, all it takes is a But God encounter! Blessings
