In All Seasons (3 of 5)
Series: God Is with Me (The Life of Joseph)

Genesis 40-41
ILLUS.- I love Fall. The weather, the football, the food. - Now, here we don't get the weather until Nov-Jan.- It's majestic. Life too is full of seasons. - We have times where things fill new and everything is growing... Spring, we have times of rest and fun... Summer, we have times of transition where things wither, or fall away... Fall, and we have times of coldness, death... Winter. -Thing about the weather is though it changes God doesn't. It's the same in life. No matter the season you are in, God's the same. He doesn't change. - He's at work in every season.
This morning through Josephs' story we are going to see that God is with His people in every season. He is working in the ups and the downs, back up again and so on. When life is a roller coaster. God is still at work faithfully working for His glory and your good.
At this point Joseph has been sold into slavery by his brothers, he's been falsely accused by his master's wife after rejecting her temptation to immorality, he's not unjustly in prison for a crime he did not commit. While in prison though he finds favor with the prison guard and he puts Joseph in charge. Just as God gave him favor as a slave he now has it as a prisoner.
Let's read Joseph's story and learn some truths that can help us be faithful to God in all seasons.

They continued for some time in custody.
