Genesis 41:37-57
Prepper’s Dream Job
Providence in the Details
John Baillie prayed, “Of all that will come to me today, very little will have been what I have chosen for myself.”
Where have you recently seen God’s hidden hand directing circumstances you didn’t plan?
How does Romans 8:28 (“God works all things together for good…”) reshape your perspective on surprise or disappointment this week?
The Spirit in Ordinary Places

What would it look like for someone to notice the Spirit’s presence in your home, workplace, or classroom?
Which fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23) feels most absent or most alive in you right now?
Faithfulness in Every Season
Joseph was faithful both in prison and in power.
Where do you find it harder to be faithful—when life is painful or when life is comfortable? Why?

Identity in a Foreign Land
Though Joseph dressed, spoke, and married like an Egyptian, his heart stayed loyal to God.
In what ways are you tempted to “blend in” with the world’s values (Romans 12:2)?
How can you intentionally remember your identity as God’s child (1 John 3:1) in your daily routines?
Forgetting and Fruitfulness
Joseph named his sons Manasseh (“God has made me forget”) and Ephraim (“God has made me fruitful”).
What past hurt or regret still shapes your outlook today?
How might releasing that to God open space for new fruitfulness (Philippians 3:13-14)?
Walking by Faith, Not by Sight
Pharaoh trusted God’s word through Joseph; how much more can we trust God’s written Word?
Where do you struggle to act on God’s Word instead of waiting for visible proof?
How could you anchor one practical decision this week in Scripture rather than emotion or opinion?
Go to Jesus for Bread
When the people cried for food, Pharaoh said, “Go to Joseph. What he says to you, do.” (v. 55)
Jesus later said, “I am the Bread of Life.” (John 6:35)
What does it mean for you to “go to Jesus” when your soul feels empty or anxious?
How can your family or group remind one another to feed on Christ daily through prayer and His Word?
