*TOPIC: THERE’S A SCRIPT, HOLD ON.*(Series 5) *Scripture Reading:* Genesis 37:3-4 *”Now Israel (Jacob) loved Joseph more than all his children, because he was the son of his old age; and he made him a [distinctive] multicolored tunic. His brothers saw that their father loved Joseph more than all of his brothers; so they hated him and could not [find it within themselves to] speak to him on friendly terms.”*(AMP) Welcome to March, it will be a month of great happenings in all ramifications of your life in Jesus Christ name. Amen! The story of Joseph, the man with the coat of many colors is also someone whom Lord moved away from his father through his siblings in order to fulfill the story that God was writing about him. Emphatically, If Joseph was still with the father, Jacob who had loved him so much, it would have been impossible for what the Lord showed him to comes to pass. *The same way the drama ministry move out of there comfort zone to a location to really be what has written on the script in their hands. Meaning, sometimes, God will have to move you out of your brethren (comfort zone) so as to really fulfill the script written about you.* The love Jacob had for his son was too great that he would have kept him by his side and he would not have learnt the ways of leadership. *When God moved him away, He increased his wisdom to walk towards his vision. God also taught him how to be patient, how to forgive and how to overcome temptations like Portiphar’s wife. God used Joseph movement to also make Israel a great nation in Egypt* (In Genesis 45:5 – Joseph said to his brothers *”Now therefore be not grieved, nor angry with yourselves, that you sold me here: for God did send me before you to preserve life”).* God also used Joseph promotion in Egypt to bring into fulfillment the prophesy He gave to Abraham years before Jacob was born. Genesis 46:3-4 *”And He said, “I am God, the God of your father; do not be afraid to go down to Egypt, for I will make you (your descendants) a great nation there. I will go down with you to Egypt, and I will also surely bring you (your people) up again; and Joseph will put his hand on your eyes [to close them at the time of your death].”* So, when the Lord change your location, is for a particular reason because the script written down concerning you permit it. *Also, don’t be surprise that even in your new location, many challenges or affliction will arise, just to prepare you ahead of future glory. There’s a script concerning you, hold on.* To be continue tomorrow morning by God’s Grace. Good morning and do have a fruitful weekend. *Prayer point:* Holy Spirit, help me to be obedient to divine instructions in accordance to your will for my life in Jesus Christ name. Amen! T.S.
