This sermon centers on the Biblical principle of walking by faith, not by sight, illustrated through the life of Joseph, whose journey from favored son to enslaved prisoner exemplifies the unseen hand of God at work in suffering and trial. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 5:5–9, it emphasizes that believers, though absent from the Lord in body, are confident in His presence through the Holy Spirit, who serves as a down payment on eternal fellowship. Joseph's life—marked by betrayal, false accusation, imprisonment, and eventual elevation—demonstrates that God's purposes are often hidden in the midst of hardship, and faith requires trusting God's unseen sovereignty even when circumstances appear unjust or hopeless. The sermon underscores that true spiritual growth and divine purpose are realized not in the absence of suffering, but through faithful endurance in it, as Joseph himself declared: 'You meant it for evil, but God meant it for good.' Ultimately, the message calls believers to persevere in faith, knowing that God is orchestrating all things for the good of those who love Him, even when the path is obscure and painful.
