The LORD Was With Him

Genesis 39 is often read as an example of how to resist sexual sins. Which it is. But there is a bigger theological message being conveyed about the LORD’s presence and steadfast love being with you – even in the lowest points and darkest times in life. For God’s people, unrelenting temptations, untrue accusations, and unjust treatment are not evidence of his anger or abandonment. They’re steps in his unfolding redemptive plan for our lives.
