Josephs Rise to Power
37. So the advice was good in the eyes of Pharaoh and in the eyes of all his servants. 38. And Pharaoh said to his servants, Can we find such a one as this, a man in whom is the Spirit of God?
39. Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, Inasmuch as God has shown you all this, there is no one as discerning and wise as you. 40. You shall be over my house, and all my people shall be ruled according to your word; only in regard to the throne will I be greater than you. 41. And Pharaoh said to Joseph, See, I have set you over all the land of Egypt.
42. Then Pharaoh took his signet ring off his hand and put it on Josephs hand; and he clothed him in garments of fine linen and put a gold chain around his neck. 43. And he had him ride in the second chariot which he had; and they cried out before him, Bow the knee! So he set him over all the land of Egypt. 44. Pharaoh also said to Joseph, I am Pharaoh, and without your consent no man may lift his hand or foot in all the land of Egypt. 45. And Pharaoh called Josephs name Zaphnath-Paaneah. And he gave him as a wife Asenath, the daughter of Poti-Pherah priest of On. So Joseph went out over all the land of Egypt.
46. Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh, and went throughout all the land of Egypt. 47. Now in the seven plentiful years the ground brought forth abundantly. 48. So he gathered up all the food of the seven years which were in the land of Egypt, and laid up the food in the cities; he laid up in every city the food of the fields which surrounded them. 49. Joseph gathered very much grain, as the sand of the sea, until he stopped counting, for it was immeasurable. 50. And to Joseph were born two sons before the years of famine came, whom Asenath, the daughter of Poti-Pherah priest of On, bore to him. 51. Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh: For God has made me forget all my toil and all my fathers house. 52. And the name of the second he called Ephraim: For God has caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction. 53. Then the seven years of plenty which were in the land of Egypt ended, 54. and the seven years of famine began to come, as Joseph had said. The famine was in all lands, but in all the land of Egypt there was bread. 55. So when all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread. Then Pharaoh said to all the Egyptians, Go to Joseph; whatever he says to you, do. 56. The famine was over all the face of the earth, and Joseph opened all the storehouses and sold to the Egyptians. And the famine became severe in the land of Egypt. 57. So all countries came to Joseph in Egypt to buy grain, because the famine was severe in all lands.
Because of Your Grace and Mercy,
Joseph rises to the top.
He shines in his integrity.
Even in the Court of a King,
He gives godly, inspired and bold answers to those who question him.
And thus, by Your Revelation to Joseph through the Pharaoh's Dream
Joseph is able to save millions of people.
And through this, the preservation of the Family of Israel,
And eventually the giving of the Law, The Prophets, and the Messiah.
Thank You, Father, for showing us History through Your Perspective!
And thank you for heroes like Joseph,
who show us how to conduct ourselves in a corrupt world.
LORD, We ask that You fill the leaders of the USA with Your Spirit,
that they may make Holy and Righteous decisions.
Comfort and heal those who have been touched by Violence,
And please expose and correct those who use tragedy
to further their own political agenda.
Bring the Truth To Light, Abba Father,
And expose all the Liars!
For the Sake of Your Anointed,
and For The Sake of Your Name,
we pray for the Peace of Jerusalem,
For Israel,
According to Your Word,
and Your Promise.
Give us Wisdom,
That we may discern Your Plan,
Even in bizarre events that leave us puzzled,
frustrated, and hurt.
Help Us remember that You are in Control,
You Are On the Throne.
Thine is the Kingdom,
The Power and the Glory,
And You Are the Same,
Yesterday, Today, and Forever!
Father, We eagerly await Messiah,
To Set Up His Kingdom,
And Make All Things Right.
Blessings To All Who Visit This garden of Prayer.
Hallelujah and Amen

Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.2 Timothy 2:15
Dear LORD, we thank YOU that in YOUR GREAT MERCY and GRACE YOU have preserved the stories of those who honored YOU, loved YOU, trusted YOU, and Glorified YOU.
