3 Lessons Joseph Teaches Us About Walking In Our Purpose By: Erica Wyatt

Walking In Our Purpose
One of my most  favorite men in the Bible is Joseph.
I love Joseph because he demonstrated great faith in the midst of great trials and hardships on the road to his purpose. There is a lot that can be learned about the process of living out your purpose through Joseph’s story.
I want to share with you a few of those lessons which you can easily apply to your own life as you strive to live out your God-given purpose:
 1. Avoid sharing your vision with everyone.
One key thing that can be taken from Joseph’s story is the importance of safeguarding your purpose.
Even though you would like everyone to be happy for you, the truth is not everyone wants to see you succeed.  Many times if you are not careful, the enemy will use those closest to you to discourage you and distract you from what God has called you to do.
Seek Godly counsel to share your vision with so that you can receive encouragement and directions on how to move forward.
2. Keep your integrity in the midst of testing.
When God begins to open up doors for you to walk in your purpose, you will be tested.  The key to more favor and more open doors is to keep your integrity. There is nothing in this life worth more than your God-given purpose.
Joseph was tested by his master’s wife and more than anything he was concerned about doing something that was not pleasing to God.
You will be tested, but you must be determined to hold onto your integrity at all costs.
3. Don’t allow your situation to drown out your purpose.
I love Joseph so much because he was determined to shine no matter what the situation .
After his master’s wife lied on him, and he was thrown into prison, he kept walking in His purpose.
God called Joseph to be a ruler so no matter where he went, he carried the favor of God with him. He did not walk around with his head held low because that would have been contrary to God’s purpose for his life. He continued to let his gifts open doors for him, and that was eventually what set him free and propelled him into the fullness of His purpose.
When you make up your mind to not allow your circumstances to drown out your purpose, God will give you great success just like He did Joseph.

SOUL TIES, DEMONIC OPPRESSION, and SPIRITUAL BONDAGE

The Bible speaks of what is today known as soul ties. In the Bible, it doesn't use the word soul tie, but it speaks of them when it talks about souls being knit together, becoming one flesh, etc. A soul tie can serve many functions, but in it's simplest form, it ties two souls together in the spiritual realm. Soul ties between married couples draw them together like magnets, while soul ties between fornicators can draw a beaten and abused woman to the man which in the natural realm she would hate and run from, but instead she runs to him even though he doesn't love her, and treats her like dirt. In the demonic world, unholy soul ties can serve as bridges between two people to pass demonic garbage through. I helped a young man not too long ago break free from downright awful visitations from demons, all due to an ungodly soul tie he had with a witch. The man was a Christian, and the only thing that allowed her to send demonic torment his way, is through the soul tie. Ot

MARINE KINGDOM / SPIRITUAL SOUL TIES

DESTROYING THE ACTIVITIES OF MARINE KINGDOM Texts: (ISAIAH 49: 24 – 26) “Shall the prey be taken from the mighty, or the lawful captive delivered? But thus saith the lord, even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away, and the prey of the terrible shall be delivered: for I will contend with him that contendeth with thee, and I will save thy children. And I will feed them that oppress thee with their own flesh; and they shall be drunken with their own blood, as with sweet wine: and all flesh shall know that I the lord am thy saviour and thy redeemer, the mighty one of Jacob”. (Job 26:5) “Dead things are formed from under the waters, and the inhabitants thereof”. Every spirit living in the water is known as marine spirit. Marine kingdom is the greatest kingdom of all evil demonic kingdoms. Marine kingdom is the most wicked, most populous, well organized kingdom, far away from other evil kingdoms, that exits in the Air, land and outside this planet. The headquarters of mari

Loving a Fatherless Man. What EVERY woman should know.

“It is far easier to build strong boys than it is to repair broken men.”  –   Frederick Douglas   RESPECT FOR A WOMAN IS ONE OF THE GREATEST GIFTS A FATHER CAN SHOW A SON.- Mimi Men are wired to “model” behavior.  A father’s main role in a home is to provide a “model” for a young boy to follow. He shapes his son’s masculinity, integrity and character. He influences his son’s understanding and treatment of the opposite sex. He prepares him for purpose and trains him to understand his role as a man. When a father is absent a boy must formulate his manhood out of  thin air.  While many single mothers have done a tremendous job of bringing up boys, a woman cannot give a boy something she has never possessed;  authentic masculinity. A generation of Fatherlessness has produced; broken promises, broken families and the rejected hearts of boys who have become broken men. What role should a woman play? A man’s deepest question will always center on his performance, “ do I
