Ever felt like you’ve been lost in the shuffle? Ever felt like all this work and faithfulness and development has been for …this? Ever wondered why can I not get a break?

I was feeling like that one day and truly just discouraged about my dreams. I was thinking : Is this pie in the sky?! Is what I see in my heart even reasonable?

That was the morning that by “some chance” or perhaps providence my Christian meditation app was about the command to be strong and courageous. Same day my devotion for the day was titled Remember the Dream. God is so faithful!

The point that hit home with me was from the story of Joseph which I really didn’t even want to read because I was thinking yada yada yada….I know this story. {Just being honest.} But in my heart, I knew that the Word is alive and disciplined myself in that moment to follow through with the devotional. Each time we read His Word even if we think we already know that particular truth, something new and fresh can jump out at us if we open our hearts to be humble and teachable. And sure enough it did!

I realized as I read this story I had read hundreds of times and even preached on it many times…that even if you or I found ourselves literally in prison like Joseph did wrongfully so, God will get ya when He has need of you!! So as I find myself in my living room studying for hours on end each morning when no one sees the tears, the writings, the wrestling with God about things, the petitions I prepare and present to Him regarding what concerns me, the cries of my heart I’ve dreamed of for decades that I have not yet seen….God will “get me” in His timing.

David was being faithful to his assignment and God got him when it was his time. The three Hebrew children were in the fire when God got them out! Jonah was in the belly of the whale and God got him and sent him straight to where he was suppose to be. And Joseph landed among thieves, then it went from bad to worse and he found himself in prison. But God got him!

If you find yourself hidden, things maybe have gone from bad to worse, or you may simply be like David, faithfully doing all you know to do, God will get ya! Even if you are in the fire, God’s mighty arm will reach down in the nick of time and pull you out and set you before Kings like He did for those Hebrew boys in scripture or whoever He needs to get you in front of for your promotion that He has on His mind for you. Remember the dreams God has put in your heart and be strong and courageous to trust Him when you think about them rather than doubt them.

“Trust in Him and in all your ways acknowledge Him and He WILL direct your path!” Prov. 3:5

When we love those ANYWAY who maybe have put us in the “belly of the whale”, “sold you among thieves”, “thrown you in the fire”, or “landed you wherever you find yourself” God will see to it that love will never fail!

God’s got you!!! He will get you right where you need to be.
