Letter 25: Assigned for Your Elevation

Have you ever felt forgotten by people—but clearly remembered by God?

Joseph knew that feeling. He went from favored son to pit, from slavery to prison, and still Scripture repeats one truth: God was with him. Even in the lowest places, Joseph’s God-given gift kept working. His ability to interpret dreams didn’t disappear in hardship—it showed up in every season.

In prison, Joseph interpreted the butler’s dream and simply asked to be remembered. But the butler forgot…for two long years. Yet God had not forgotten. At the right moment, Pharaoh needed an interpretation no one else could give—and suddenly the butler remembered Joseph. Not coincidence. Divine timing.

Joseph’s story reminds us: being overlooked by people is not the same as being overlooked by God. Your gift still works. Your obedience still matters. And when the time is right, God knows how to bring your name back up.
