Receive Joseph was thirty years old when he entered the service of Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh, and went through all the land of Egypt. During the seven plenteous years the earth produced abundantly. He gathered up all the food of the seven years when there was plenty in the land of Egypt, and stored up food in the cities; he stored up in every city the food from the fields around it. From the book of Genesis, chapter 41, verses 46 to 48
Engage Joseph had been sold into slavery and then sent to prison. It was there that he became as a person who understood the meaning of dreams. He was able to understand Pharaoh’s dreams. He was placed in authority and worked with the Egyptians and made sure that they had enough grain stored. Eventually, when his family were struggling they went to Egypt for help. Joseph was reunited with his family. Joseph had spent years working in Egypt, patiently doing his tasks.
