...Everything he did, the LORD blessed... (Genesis 39.24)

            The contrast is striking in this story. He was cast to the bottom of the dungeon under heavy accusations of immorality, disrespect and disloyalty to his Lord Egyptian. The comfort of the royal palace descended to the vilest acts of prisons.

             But the Lord was with Joseph (v.21). The phrase in seems shocking in view of the circumstances. Why bless and protect it both in a situation so serious?

            When God has a plan for someone, He the proof until the end. God does not use and not blesses neophytes. He only uses those in whom He can trust (Salm 89.19, 20).

            And the text continues saying: "... the Lord extended him mercy, and gave him grace" (v.21).

            The chaos that fall over Egypt also fell on Joseph. The dark hour promised us many headaches and no expectation of improvement.

            Had not, and nor would arise no easy solution.

            But there were major challenges.

             Joseph not rebelled, never after her love was rejected and never lost the posture. He was wrapped in the dignity of men of God. Aware of the purpose of the Lord for his life and silent promotes continued - "He was oppressed, but he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, as a mute sheep before her shearers" (Isaiah 53.7).

            In prison he earns more force. In the crisis it grows. In desperation he promotes the hope. Joseph knew that "crying can last for a night, but joy cometh in the morning" (Salm 30.5).

            Found grace in the sight of the keeper of the head, won him full confidence, the friendship of prisoners, transformed the gloomy atmosphere in the blessings of God and of liberation...

            Around her everything prospered by the power of the Word and of the Revelation.

            Outside everything if rocks were broken. Nobody had control of more nothing - not Pharaoh, and the princes, governors, butlers, jailers and people. Everything ran loose.

            But in the silence of the dungeon a man had, of whom nothing escaped.

             Joseph track there hereinafter. The prisoners foresaw the freedom, bread not lacked, joy and great hope. The chain has transformed in a chantry, the desert in the fertile field and Egypt in a land of abundance.

             Because the Lord was with him, and all that he did, the Lord did to prosper (Genesis No 39.24).

            God bless you!
