Genesis 50:20

Okay, I am going to start with my favorite verse in evangelism... The verse is Genesis 50:20. "You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives." NIV version

I believe that this is a verse of testimony for many people. I believe that everyone can relate to this verse. It hits home with most. We all have a testimony. I am going to start with mine, and then I am going to open the doors for the rest of you to put in your testimony in relation with this verse. I was in a severe domestic violence situation. I was raped and beaten. I had a baby through the traumatic events. I use this verse to bring many people to Christ that are in the same or similar situations that I was in.

The way that I apply this verse is by giving this testimony to many people. I am even writing a book about it. I think that it is important to find God amongst our darkest hour.I believe that through testimony of our personal lives, we can apply Genesis 50:20 to most every situation.

Saving the lives of many, doesn't have to be physically. It can also mean spiritually. Think about it. If someone is to burn in hell, their life was not saved. Therefore not all of us have to be in extremely harmful situations in order to apply this verse. Does that make sense?

We can learn through any kind of mistake, sin, or other life changing experience. We can use the sinful nature of others, to save the souls of humanity. Please feel free to share your thoughts, feelings, experiences, or testimonies in regards to this verse.

Every verse is important, however in learning the Bible, I feel like this is one of the most important to learn to help us to understand the nature of God. Hello walls, am I onto something???
