January 14 Bible Reading - Genesis 39 - 41

READ GENESIS 39 - 41 HERE

Potiphar's wife sought to seduce whom?

What did Joseph do for the butler and baker while he was in prison with them?

What did the seven bad ears of corn represent?

LESSON: It took a person of great faith and character to stand for God in the time of temptation. Had he already been out of God's Will, he probably would have yielded. Remember your profession!

PRAYER: Father, give me faith and character to stand for you during temptation. Amen!

Full Armor

God has provided wonderful protection for His children because He is aware of the continuous battle that Satan wages against us. His armor is tailor made for each of us, but we must put it on in order for it to be effective. Listen to Paul's warning to the Ephesians, "Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil." One of the most unusual creatures in the sea is the lobster. It runs backwards; it hears with its legs and tastes with its feet. It chews its food with teeth in its stomach. Because the lobster is delicious food for other sea creatures, the Lord gave it a full suit of armor. As Children of God, we have also been blessed with a full suit of armor. A helmet of salvation, a breastplate of righteousness, and a shield of faith. When we forget any part of our armor, we are inviting spiritual injury. Let's take full advantage of our armor!
