After two long years of being forgotten in prison, everything changes for Joseph in a single day. When Pharaoh’s troubling dreams leave Egypt’s wisest men speechless, Joseph is suddenly summoned from the dungeon. Instead of promoting himself, he humbly points to God as the source of wisdom and insight. In one breathtaking turn, the prisoner becomes the second most powerful man in Egypt. Joseph’s story reminds us that no season of waiting is wasted, and when God moves, He can change everything in a moment. His timing may feel slow, but it is always precise—and perfectly aligned with a purpose bigger than we can see.
