“And the Lord was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man, and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian” (Genesis 39:2).

Joseph proved himself to be a faithful servant of God even after receiving unfair treatment from his brothers. Joseph was his father’s favorite son, one with the “coat of many colors”; however, his brothers had some resentment toward Joseph’s favor. They also hated Joseph for his dreams that God was giving him. My friend, not everyone is excited over the manner in which God will use you. Your anointing will bother the demons in some folks, and they will have resentment toward your anointing. They stripped Joseph of his “coat of many colors,” they threw him in a pit to only pull him out and sell him to the Midianites for twenty pieces of silver. In Slavery, in captivity, God still blessed Joseph, “And his master saw that the Lord was with him and that the Lord made all that he did to prosper in his hand” (v.3). May I encourage you to stay faithful to the Lord this morning? May I share from this scripture that God’s plan cannot be stopped by human efforts? Joseph stayed faithful to the Lord. God spoke to Joseph in a dream, God had spoken into Joseph’s spirit, and Joseph knew that his dream would come to pass. Stay faithful to God, and your anointing, and what God has spoken into your spirit. Your God-given destiny cannot be changed by outside forces; God has a plan for your life, so walk with him. Circumstances may look difficult right now for you, but God is faithful; stay true to God in the pit, in being sold into slavery, when folks lie, and you are cast into prison. “The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord.” No matter what, Joseph laid his hands upon God blessed it! Father, I pray this morning that our readers would find encouragement to fight against the evil forces attacking their anointing and God-given destiny. Be Blessed in Jesus’ Name!
