“You’ll get through this. It won’t be painless. It won’t be quick. But God will use this mess for good. In the meantime, don’t be foolish of naïve. But don’t despair either. With God’s help, you will get through this,” Lucado told Gateway in a recent message.

Using the story of Joseph and the despair he went through after being stuck in a pit and sold into slavery by his brothers, Lucado demonstrated how God uses people in the very worst of places and circumstances to turn it all around for good.

“Joseph was thrown into a pit and despised,” Lucado continued. “Some people never get out. It’s not easy to get out of a pit. There’s no easy exit. Joseph’s story if you know, it got worse before it got better.”

Keeping faith during difficult seasons is not only painful and sometimes confusing, but like Joseph, it is about realizing that God uses all things for His glory. No matter the season or the struggle Gateway Church is in right now, He can use it for the good of every single congregant who calls it their home church.
