Summary
God is sovereign over success. Joseph's rise to power in Egypt demonstrates that humility—attributing all accomplishment to God rather than self—is the correct response to advancement. Listeners learn to handle prosperity by recognizing God's responsibility for their success and maintaining faithful stewardship of what He entrusts to them.
Highlights
God is responsible for every good thing that has ever happened in my life.
I can't, but God can. I don't have the ability, but he has the ability.
Don't doubt in the darkness what God showed you in the light.
