The Prison of Potiphar

Joseph is sold into slavery. However, the favor of God is upon him in everything. Slavery humbled Joseph and drew him closer to God. His righteousness would be tested, and his character will be revealed.

Have you ever felt wrongfully accused or misunderstood? Joseph’s story in Potiphar’s house shows us how to handle such situations with integrity. Despite being falsely accused by Potiphar’s wife and thrown into prison, Joseph remained faithful to God. His story encourages us to stay true to our values, even when it seems like the world is against us. Joseph’s experience teaches us that while righteousness might not always be rewarded by the world, it is honored by God. Even in the darkest moments, God’s presence shapes us for a greater purpose. How might God be calling you to trust Him today?
