The last time we saw Joseph, he was being betrayed and sold as a slave by his brothers. But in Genesis 39 we pick back up with the story of Joseph and find that God is with him and is blessing him even though he is a slave in Egypt. His master’s wife sets her sights on Joseph and this young man is faced with a terribly difficult temptation. Given what we’ve read so far in Genesis, we expect Joseph to give in, and fall flat on his face. But instead he withstands temptation and remains sexually pure. It is a story about the faithfulness of God to uphold him, but there are several things that we can learn from Joseph as we pursue holiness in our own lives. Join us this Sunday as we learn how to fight for purity in the midst of temptation.
