Control Yourself

 Joseph could no longer control himself 
in the presence of all his attendants, so he cried out, 
“Have everyone withdraw from me!” 
Thus no one else was about when 
he made himself known to his brothers.
(Genesis 45:1)



Father in heaven, 

The fruitfulness of your Hands is at work in me each moment of my life. Be praised and glorified O Lord for giving me the wisdom, courage, strength, will and determination to control myself in times when my faith is being put to test.

Today, I humbly come before You weak and vulnerable to ask and seek for Your own heart through Christ. I need to forgive so that I may be forgiven. Help me dear Lord to leave all my hurts in the past so that I can move forward. Have mercy on me Lord, forgive all my sins and heal me from all my pains and hurts.

As I journey towards the abundance that You have stored for me, please carry me through whenever a storm arises. My trust is in You and what I can only do is to hold on You ever so tight. Only by your Hand can I be raised up!

A lot of years I have suffered from the hands of uncertainties and financial insecurities but in Your love, goodness, and grace, you have changed my lot. I now enjoy the comfort and fullness of Your grace. Thank you so much for working mightily in me and loving me despite my sins. 

With much hope, love, and thanksgiving I pray in Jesus Name. 

Amen.
