But God was with him

“And the patriarchs, moved with envy, sold Joseph into Egypt: but God was with him,” Acts 7:9

When God is with you what killed others cannot kill you, what put others to shame cannot put you to shame, the path that is unsafe for others cannot harm you, the serpent cannot harm you neither can the scorpion afflict you. The world economy cannot swallow you neither can its diseases afflict you. Even if giants come against you, they will be swallowed up; see how David wasted Goliath.

Check the Bible, Daniel spent night with Lions without any harm, the same Lions torn his enemies into pieces in seconds. Zadrach, Meshack and Abednego walked inside the fire, the same fire whose breath killed the Giants that threw them into the furnace. Paul shook the venomous beast inside the fire and felt no harm. This is because God was with them.

Joseph’s brothers sold him into slavery BUT GOD WAS WITH HIM. And that makes the difference; he became a ruler in the land of his slavery and bondage. Beloved, don’t compromise God’s presence in your life for anything in this world. It is the greatest thing you need on earth. No worldly thing can take the place of God’s presence in your life. So what do you do? Spend time with God and live in absolute obedience to His word.
