Joseph has demonstrated remarkable faithfulness in spurning the advances of Potiphar’s wife. What is his reward? Prison! In Genesis 39 we learn that God is with Joseph in Potiphar’s house, God is with Joseph in prison, and God is with Joseph in fulfilling his covenant promises. The heart of the covenant promise is the presence of God himself. And here we find that God is in Egypt, God is in prison, and God is in every detail of Joseph’s life. The answer to the question of “why bad things happen to good people” is not found in our ability to explain every detail of “why.” Rather, the answer is found at the heart of God’s covenant promise – he will be with us. With the aid of the lenses of Scripture listen to see how Joseph’s life points to the fulfillment of covenant promises and to the person and work of Jesus Christ.
