In the ultimate Rags to Riches story- Joseph, was the second most powerful man in the entire world. And it appeared that overnight he had turned into this incredible man, but nothing could be further from the truth. For 13 years God had been preparing this man through the trials and tragedies of his life. In Romans chapter 5 verse 3 and following it says that our suffering produces endurance and character and hope. And these were the things that the suffering that Joseph endured were producing in his life. No, he was not made into what he was overnight. He was made into what he was over long hard years where the promises God had made to him through two dreams he had when he was 17 years old were tested through trials and he was made mature.
