God uses seasons of testing to prepare us for what He entrusts us. Like Joseph, we are called to remain faithful, fear God, and choose forgiveness—trusting Him to turn our trials into His greater…
Yang Tuck YoongHostJoseph was," say with me, "sold." "Joseph was sold as a slave." In verse 18, "They bruised his feet with fetters and placed his neck in an iron collar."

The ruler of the nation opened his prison door.
Joseph was put in charge of all the king's household.
He became the ruler over all of the king's possessions." How does your dream come to pass? The Bible tells us in the life of Joseph we learn time and tests are both needed for your dream to come to pass.
It is not the task, it is not the talent, but time and tests are needed for your dream to come to reality.
Because what is not tested, the one that is not tested cannot be trusted nor entrusted.
But what are the tests, Pastor Ed? When we see the life of Joseph, there are three tests.
Joseph's faith was tested, Joseph's faithfulness toward his earthly employer, Potiphar, was tested, and finally, Joseph's forgiveness toward his brothers was tested as well.
There are three things that we want to learn this morning, and at the end of the service I want to be inviting you to the altar so that we can activate and then we can minister you, minister to you so that your dream can come to pass.
Come on, give me a big amen.
The first thing is this, my friends.
