Genesis 39: 20bBut while Joseph was there in the prison, 21the Lord was with him; he showed him kindness and granted him favor in the eyes of the prison warden.
41: 39Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Since God has made all this known to you, there is no one so discerning and wise as you. 41So Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I hereby put you in charge of the whole land of Egypt.”

Joseph kept believing God when things seemed to be going wrong (Genesis 37, 39-45). He was given a big purpose and dream. He persevered through betrayal, slavery, promotion, demotion, and prison before receiving the manifestation of the purpose that God called him to. If Joseph had given up, or quit believing that God loved him and that God is good and reserves good things for His people, Joseph would have never reached the other side of the trials. Victory is guaranteed for the believer who trusts God and perseveres through the trials to the victory.

I John 5:4 For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.
