God's Favor For Joseph

                   For those who find me find life and receive favor from the Lord - Proverbs 8:35.

Joseph found favor in Potiphar’s sight

              Joseph found favor in Potiphar’s sight and became in charge of his household as God was with him. Potiphar put him in charge of his household, and he entrusted to his care everything he owned. From the time he put him in charge of his household and of all that he owned, the Lord blessed the household of the Egyptian because of Joseph. The blessing of the Lord was on everything Potiphar had, both in the house and in the field - Genesis 39:4,5.

Joseph found favor in prison

           Joseph found favor in the sight of keeper of prison. But the Lord was with Joseph and showed him mercy, and He gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison. And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph’s hand all the prisoners who were in the prison; whatever they did there, it was his doing. The keeper of the prison did not look into anything that was under Joseph’s authority, because the Lord was with him; and whatever he did, the Lord made it prosper - Genesis 39: 21-23.

God's favor in our life

              The favor of God was with Joseph in all the circumstances of his life. For You, O Lord, will bless the righteous; With favor You will surround him as with a shield - Psalm 5:12. For His anger is but for a moment, His favor is for life  - Psalm 30:5. God’s time of favor had come in our life. You will arise and have mercy on Zion; For the time to favor her, Yes, the set time, has come - Psalm 102:13. May the favor of the Lord our God rest on us; establish the work of our hands for us - yes, establish the work of our hands - Psalm 90:17.

                                               

 

PRAYER: Dear Lord, May Your favor rest in our life. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
