The Lord Was With Him

Joseph went from being a prince to being property as a slave. However, God was with him even though Joseph was not in a place that he wanted to be in. The blessing of God was evident on Joseph's life. Joseph was a slave but the Lord was with him and Potiphar promoted him to his personal assistant. Potiphar and his household prospered because the Lord was with and blessed Joseph. We too can be a blessing to our households if we are in Christ and will recognize it is from God and give honor to God. Sex outside marriage is a wicked sin against God. It is not love if someone tries to get you to sin. If you love someone do not sin against God with them. Joseph could not transfer jobs to get away from Potiphar's wife but he did purposely stay away from her. God can be with us, and bless us, and prosper us, even in a situation that we would not choose. We need to be like Joseph and set our hearts on the will of God. We should not give in to sin because it would be a sin against God.
