The History of Joseph

Picture Joseph pushed into a pit by his brothers in his parka of many colors

There was no pity by his peers in preventing that pit

Priced and purchased as a slave and then placed with Potiphar

But then he was pathetically accused by Potiphar's provocative wife 

This placed him on a path to prison

Prison life was a place of pain and patience

Penitentiaries weren't playgrounds back then

Prisoners weren't playing putt putt or ping pong 

But after the pit, Potiphar and prison he got promoted to power in the palace

The proving of the pit proved a point that plots from other people don't prevail when you pick God's perfect plan

Even powerful Potiphar did not pick Joseph's path

It was divine providence not Potiphar

Even your own personal Potiphars cannot cloud your own life's picture 

Though prison was permitted and not pursued Joseph prospered in his plight

The problem of the penitentiary actually prepared him for the palace

God's promise put him in power to rule over that present population

Prayer connects the puzzle pieces of all our problems 

Your plethora of problems may actually be preparing you for the place of promotion

Your personal problems can push you into your purpose 

And those petty punk brothers that placed him in a pit led a procession to the palace to apologize for that evil plot of the past

If we stay positive in pain and problems we progress into the next promotion and fulfill our purpose
