Episode 10 - The Joseph Series: Prison to Palace (Genesis 41:46-49, Ephesians 3:20 NIV)

HealingStrong's Around the Word

Joseph's journey from pit to palace took 13 years, culminating at age 30 when he entered Pharaoh's service and managed Egypt's resources during seven years of abundance. God's blessings became so overwhelming that Joseph stopped counting the grain because it was beyond measure—a perfect illustration of Ephesians 3:20, where God promises to do "immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine."
This quick episode covers:

• Joseph was 30 years old when he began serving Pharaoh—the same age Jesus and King David began their ministries
• Those 13 years weren't wasted but were preparation for Joseph's destiny
• Joseph went from sitting in silence in prison to running a nation
• The grain became so abundant Joseph stopped keeping records—it was beyond measure
• God does "immeasurably more" than we can dream or ask (Ephesians 3:20)
• We often limit God by planning our future instead of trusting His bigger plans
• Luke 6:38 reminds us we cannot outgive God—He returns blessings in overflowing measure
