Joseph’s words to his brothers reveal one of the most powerful truths in Scripture — God can turn every bad situation into something good. What Joseph’s brothers meant for evil, God used for His divine purpose. The betrayal, slavery, and imprisonment Joseph endured were not random misfortunes. They were divinely orchestrated steps toward his destiny — to save many lives during the famine.

Often, when we go through pain, loss, or betrayal, we only see the darkness. But behind the scenes, God is writing a story of redemption. The very things that seemed to break us may actually be positioning us for a breakthrough. God never wastes pain — He weaves it into His plan to bring forth good, both for us and for others.

When we realize this truth, our hearts can rest even in seasons of uncertainty. Like Joseph, we can look back and see that what others meant for harm, God meant for good.

Reflection:
Are there areas in your life that seem unfair or painful? Remember, God is still in control. The same God who turned Joseph’s trials into triumph is working behind the scenes in your story too. Trust His timing, and let faith replace frustration.

Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You for turning every situation in my life for good. Even when I cannot understand, help me trust Your perfect plan. Use every pain, every delay, and every disappointment to shape me for Your purpose. Let my life, like Joseph’s, reveal Your glory. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
