Pastor Lucas Miles continues the verse-by-verse teaching through the life of Joseph by turning to Genesis 39, highlighting God’s faithfulness in the midst of injustice and temptation. Though Joseph has been betrayed by his brothers and sold into slavery, Pastor Lucas emphasizes the repeated truth of the text: “the Lord was with Joseph,” reminding the church that God’s presence does not waver when circumstances are unfair or confusing.

As the message unfolds, Pastor Lucas walks through Joseph’s rise in Potiphar’s household, where integrity and diligence, empowered by God’s favor, lead to increased responsibility. This season of blessing is met with intense temptation as Potiphar’s wife repeatedly pursues Joseph. Pastor Lucas underscores Joseph’s refusal as an act of faithfulness—choosing obedience to God over personal comfort or immediate gain.

Pastor Lucas then addresses Joseph’s false accusation and imprisonment, noting that Joseph suffers not for wrongdoing, but for righteousness. Even in prison, God’s presence remains evident as Joseph once again finds favor and leadership. Throughout this section, Pastor Lucas draws clear parallels between Joseph and Jesus, presenting Joseph as a righteous sufferer who bears punishment for sins he did not commit, foreshadowing Christ’s redemptive work.

Throughout the teaching, Pastor Lucas challenges believers to carry God’s blessing into every environment and to be recognizable by their Christlike character. He contrasts legalism with grace, reminding the church that victory over sin flows from identity in Christ rather than willpower alone. The message closes with a call to remain rooted in God’s Word, allowing Scripture to shape decisions, guard hearts, and sustain faith in every season.
