"And יהוה‎ YHWH was with Yosef, and he became a prosperous man. And he was in the house of his [Egyptian] master.... [who] saw that יהוה‎ YHWH was with [Yosef]. And all that he was doing, יהוה‎ YHWH was causing to prosper in his hand...." B'reshiyt (Genesis) 39:2-3

From the angry hands of his brothers to indentured servitude in Mitz'rayim, Yosef was nonetheless on the path toward his destiny. At home with Yis'rael, Yosef had clearly been the favorite among the sons. Now, owned by Mitz'rayim, he was receiving the favor of the Lord. Despite his troubled circumstances, "all that he was doing, יהוה‎ YHWH was causing to prosper in his hand... and he became a prosperous man... and his master saw that יהוה‎ YHWH was with [him]."

Like Yosef, we, too, may display evidence that יהוה‎ YHWH is with us-but also like Yosef, יהוה‎ YHWH's favor does not guarantee our release from unfavorable circumstances. Indeed, things may get much, much worse before they show signs of getting any better-yet this does not diminish יהוה‎ YHWH's approval of how we are living for Him. May we take solace in the favor that יהוה‎ YHWH is showing us today, even if it means waiting for our vindication and destiny just a little while longer.

I praise You, יהוה‎ YHWH, for even in the midst of undeserving trials, You are with me. Thank You for preserving me and moving me along the path to my destiny, even when it seems like I am standing still. I bless Your Name, for only You can send prosperity when oppression would otherwise abound. Show me Your ways, Abba, Father-your ways of faithfulness, security and hope...
