People say action speaks better than words,i will not totally agree in all cases but in times of trials and temptations conversing with the enemy will do you no good.
With Joseph being our main reference here,Genesis 39:2-12,he had told her(his masters wife) No earlier but as we know it she didn’t get it,it just wasn’t enough for her,but at verse 12!!,when he ran without caring about his cloth ,she finally got the point.
Now lets look at this verses with a little microscope.
Gen 39:2 And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
Gen 39:3 And his master saw that the LORD was with him, and that the LORD made all that he did to prosper in his hand.
Gen 39:4 And Joseph found grace in his sight, and he served him: and he made him overseer over his house, and all that he had he put into his hand.
Gen 39:5 And it came to pass from the time that he had made him overseer in his house, and over all that he had, that the LORD blessed the Egyptian’s house for Joseph’s sake; and the blessing of the LORD was upon all that he had in the house, and in the field.
Gen 39:7 And it came to pass after these things, that his master’s wife cast her eyes upon Joseph; and she said, Lie with me.
Gen 39:8 But he refused, and said unto his master’s wife, Behold, my master wotteth not what is with me in the house, and he hath committed all that he hath to my hand;
Gen 39:9 There is none greater in this house than I; neither hath he kept back any thing from me but thee, because thou art his wife: how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?
Gen 39:10 And it came to pass, as she spake to Joseph day by day, that he hearkened not unto her, to lie by her, or to be with her.
Gen 39:11 And it came to pass about this time, that Joseph went into the house to do his business; and there was none of the men of the house there within.
Gen 39:12 And she caught him by his garment, saying, Lie with me: and he left his garment in her hand, and fled, and got him out.
Please be aware that The temptation / trial of your faith you are facing now is because God has placed you in a very great place and he also wants to use this situation to take you higher,like he did for Joseph ,i believe it was time to move higher because if his masters wife had not tried him he wouldn’t have gone to prison nor would he have interpreted the dream that shot him to glory.
Know today that a mere “No” will not chase that devil that is out to kill your destiny,you have to flee and set yourself far from him/her,(Take severe action).and hold on to this mindset like Joseph did “how can i do this great wickedness and sin against God”.Be fully aware that God has invested so much in you for you to make or even meddle with foolish decisions ,do you understand i am not saying that you have or even planned to give in to any temptation,but i am showing you through Gods word that you should give it an extensive space from your life and God will strengthen you to make a firm and strong decision in jesus name.Amen
