Timing And Location

Genesis 45:10-11 (KJV) And thou shalt dwell in the land of Goshen, and thou shalt be near unto me, thou, and thy children, and thy children's children, and thy flocks, and thy herds, and all that thou hast: And there will I nourish thee; for yet there are five years of famine; lest thou, and thy household, and all that thou hast, come to poverty.

Being in the right place at the right time is a phrase that people use when they describe an unexpected "stroke of luck", unexpected blessing, or something good that happened to them when they happen to "connect" with a circumstance that resulted in a positive way. Well, God has planned specific locations for each of us to be to experience and receive certain blessings. Abraham knew it when God told him to go to the land where he would be abundantly blessed. Joseph came to know it after he had been in Egypt a while and a famine came on. God has promised to provide for His people, but it is specific to timing and location. I'm sure Joseph didn't like enduring the hardships he endured when he was sold into slavery to Egypt, but had he not, his whole family would have perished. I'm sure it was not an easy decision for Abraham to leave his father's house and the land where he had lived all his life, and go to a place he did not know. Be encouraged today and know that even though the place where you believe God wants you to be is not somewhere you would have chosen, it is for a reason and it is for a season. Just follow peace and know that the timing and location is specific for the blessing of provision and protection for you and your family.
Have A Blessed Day
