How Long Can You Stand?

Joseph knew very well that if he agreed to Potiphar's demands to engage in illicit sexual affair,his life could have changed 'for the better' literally, from the look of things.

Humanly speaking,he could not have gone to jail,and he would receive other favors from Potiphar.

But he said,No.

As expected,he landed to jail.

When Shadrak, Meshek and Abedinago were supposed to bow to the King Nebuchadnezzar demands.

They refused.

Even when thrown into a den of lions,they still refused to bow.

Even though in the two scenarios they first suffered out of the choices they made.

After a while they can attest to those being the best decision they made out of the scenarios they were in.

Many times,we will find ourselves in awkward situations in life.

They will seem insurmountable but then are we not told God cannot allow us to be tempted beyond what we can overcome?

How far can you withstand criticism?

How far will your no remain to be a no.

How far will the character you've build for years remain?

How long are you going to hold onto what you believe in?

How long will you hold on to that business you are working on?

People who have remained steadfast in their character and calling are the one who make the biggest shots in life.

They are the influencers of generations.

They remain true to who they are and what they want in life and they ultimately get it.
