When the night is prolonged 2


“And the patriarchs, moved with envy, sold Joseph into Egypt: but God was with him, And delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favour and wisdom in the sight of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and he made him governor over Egypt and all his house.” Acts 7:9-10

Your strongest light in the darkness of the night is your assurance that God is with you. The patriarchs sent Joseph to the darkest night of his life. They sold him into slavery to put an end to his dreams. But the presence of God brought light into his life. God did not only bring him out of the darkness, He ensured the fulfilment of his dreams.

“What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?” Romans 8:31
“And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest.” Exodus 33:14

When you are sure of His presence, you have confidence that you will overcome and the night will be over. You need this confidence to be unshakable in the night of your life. His presence guarantees victory and rest in any situation we find ourselves. As a child of God, He has promised not to leave you or forsake you (Hebrews 13:5-6; Romans 8:28). All you have to do is to maintain your love for God and spend time with Him daily. Never allow the night to take you from His presence because that is your key for total turnaround of the situation.

Let your nighttime expire and let your daytime begin in Jesus name.

Prayer for today: Oh God let your presence be with me and give me victory in this night situation in Jesus name.
