Promise 108 Gen. 49:23-24

Gen. 49: 23-24 - "The archers bitterly attacked him, and shot at him and harassed him; But his bow remained firm, from the hand of the mighty one of Jacob (From there is the Shepherd, the Stone of Israel)." Jacob is blessing Joseph, how many times have we found ourselves in the same place as Joseph; looking straight in the the heads of arrows coming right toward us. Arrows shot at us by those who don't understand us or who just plainly don't care. Arrows of circumstances gone wrong, arrows of hurt and pain? Yet Joseph's bow stood strong and his arms agile. The Mighty One of Jacob put Joseph on Him like a glove, and it was His hands that gave Joseph the strength to dodge the arrows and to stand firm. When we have Jesus in us and we in Him, its as though He wears us like a glove, He gives us the strength we need to stand firm and to become victors over life's hurts. Let Him try you on for size today!
