At this point, Joseph was 28 years old and had been in prison for about 8 years. He interpreted the dreams for two of the prisoners – the cupbearer and baker. He told the cupbearer that he’d be restored to his position and the baker that he would be put to death. The baker was put to death, and the cupbearer was restored to his position in service to Pharaoh. And really Jospeh had only one request…which was to put in a good word on his behalf. He said, “Mention me to Pharoah and get me out of this prison.” (40:14). Chapter 40 ends on a sad note, “The chief cupbearer, however, did not remember Joseph; he forgot him.” (Genesis 40:23). We learn from Joseph that God is with us wherever we go, and he expects obedience, not perfection. We shouldn’t measure success by what others think of us or our station in life, but by what God thinks of us. Joseph truly believed the Lord was with him and working through him. (Genesis 40-41)
