IT'S A HARD KNOCK LIFE

Genesis 41:52

Joseph named his second son Ephraim, for he said, "God has made me fruitful in this land of my suffering.

This story is just too good to be true, yet it's true. Joseph was sold by his brothers to become a slave, and later he was charged with and imprisoned for a crime that he didn't commit. Throughout all of this, his faith in God remained steady and he never violated the God's commands. The situation seemed impossible, but God makes ways for us. Not only was he Joseph released from prison, but in due time he would became Prime Minister of Egypt. More than half of his life was spent in the school of hard knocks, but every time he passed his tests, the Lord promoted him forward. Don't question what God has promised in the light as you pass through during the darkness of night. You can always be fruitful in every circumstance and situation.
