Sermon Notes Genesis 41:50-52

Joseph [Gen 37-50] - often victim of others' spite
Freedom - dancing on enemy's ground
Even in prison, a Christian is free
Joseph suffered from favouritism
Be wary of attaching status to gift

Joseph:
See the bigger picture
The Lord is with us always
Christian discipleship - 'a long obedience in the same direction', only able to go forward
Don't trust in humans for salvation, trust in God alone
Devil would be happy if we were most successful person ever if we lost our faith
Don't allow your troubles to be your prison
