FIND YOUR TRIBE (22-05-2026)

“15. And the king of Egypt spake to the Hebrew midwives, of which the name of the one was Shiphrah, and the name of the other Puah: 16. And he said, When ye do the office of a midwife to the Hebrew women, and see them upon the stools; if it be a son, then ye shall kill him: but if it be a daughter, then she shall live.” (Exodus 1: 15-16)

That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.

In our Focal Scripture, Pharaoh reached out to the Hebrew midwives, and requested that they do him a favour of killing the children of the Hebrew women. He sought to exploit their role as midwives of the Hebrew women. So, the Hebrew women went to Hebrew midwives. They may have had the option of Egyptian midwives, but they chose Hebrew midwives. They chose midwives from their tribe.

Friend, in your journey through destiny, find your tribe. Find those who belong to your tribe in Christ. Find those who believe in what you believe in. Find those who love God as you do. Find those who reverence God the way you do. Find those who believe in the principle of consecration, dedication, focus, commitment, etc. Find those who are also seeking to please God like you. Find those who are seeking the same God you seek.

Not everyone can deliver your 'child'. Not everyone can handle being around what God has put on your life. Not everyone can midwife your potentials and potentialities. Not everyone will come close to you without damaging you. Not everyone believes in a walk with God, and you might endanger your walk with God if you allow them to come close to you. Not every 'tribe' is safe for you.

Your tribe does not begin and end with where you were born. There is such a thing as your tribe in Christ. There is such a thing as a tribe of the decent, intentional, committed, efficient, diligent, consecrated, etc. Don’t be in a hurry to say you are of the tribe of Christ, yet your closest company is the tribe of sin and unrighteousness. Don’t mix your greatness with a tribe that will damage it. Don’t expose your greatness to the wrong tribe.

If God has committed greatness into your hands, then be wise to know the tribe that deserves to come close to it. Find your tribe. Find the tribe that protects your ‘seed’.

Proverbs 13: 20 says: “He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.”

Declare With Me: I have wisdom to find my tribe, in Jesus’ name!
