Living Content

Philippians 4:12

Contentment! Mmmm, I’d like to have a little of that; how about you? I find it hard to be contented about almost anything. My performance is not up to par. My weight isn’t where it should be. My words were a little insensitive in the last conversation. It’s even easier to slip into recognizing what we don’t have financially and then pursue that.

But before money, possessions, health, or any other thing can be truly enjoyed, we first have to learn that contentment is not based on our circumstances but our salvation.

Prophet – Joseph

Genesis 40:12-13
“This is what it means, ” Joseph said to him. “The three branches are three days.    Within three days  Pharaoh will lift up your head  and restore you to your position, and you will put Pharaoh’s cup in his hand, just as you used to do when you were his cupbearer.

Genesis 40:18-19

“This is what it means,” Joseph said. “The three baskets are three days.    Within three days  Pharaoh will lift off your head  and impale your body on a pole.  And the birds will eat away your flesh.”
Genesis 41:26-32 – Kindly read

Genesis 50:24-25

And Joseph said unto his brethren, I die: and God will surely visit you, and bring you out of this land unto the land which he sware to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.   And Joseph took an oath of the children of Israel, saying, God will surely visit you, and ye shall carry up my bones from hence

Am I Brother’s Keeper?

Romans 14:7

For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself.

1 Kings 19:5

And as he lay and slept under a juniper tree, behold, then an angel touched him, and said unto him, Arise and eat.
