Up to this point, it’s felt like the story of Joseph has been nothing but bad news. One painful experience after another. But all those events have been leading up to this moment. 

 At last, all the links in the chain of God’s sovereignty are about to become clear…and it’s the greatest story of promotion in the Bible. In one day, Joseph went from being in the pit of prison to being second in command of all Egypt.

The question is, “If God could do that with Joseph, is He able to do with you?” Dare we dream that the God who is alive can take this mess that we call our past and use it to do something greater than we’ve ever imagined?
