God Works Through Humans | Genesis 41
He grew up in a complicated family. He endured betrayal, hardship, injustice, and isolation. Yet in one of the Bible’s most dramatic reversals, Joseph rose to a place of power and authority, delivering God’s people and preserving the covenant family.

In a dramatic turn of events, Joseph is finally promoted from prison and given a position of prominence under Pharaoh in the midst of famine. Joseph speaks God’s purposes, serves with God’s power and is satisfied with the provision he gives. What might this story have to teach us about the kind of people God partners with?
