Promise 91 Gen. 39:21,23
Gen. 39:21,13 - "But the Lord was with Joseph and extended kindness to him, and gave him favour in the sight of the chief jailer.... The chief jailer did not supervise anything under Joseph's charge because the Lord was with him; and whatever he did, the Lord made to prosper." Joseph was put in jail as an innocent man. Even though it looked like a terrible thing for Joseph, God still showed him that He was with him by granting favour in the eyes of the jailer. God just moved Joseph on closer to the bigger blessing that He wants to give him. The scripture doesn't say if Joseph held a grudge or was angry at the Potipher's wife for what she did, but we do know that there was no offence in the eyes of God, which I'm going to suggest that, because Joseph knew God was with Him, he held no offence against the woman, therefore none against God, and God blessed him. God is a just God, He will act on our behalf and will work in the hearts of those around us, just to remind us He is with us.
