Joseph and Potiphar's Wife
God guides us through temptation by our obedience to Him.
We follow good instructions that steer us to where blessing is ordained; directions which keep us out of harm's way.
Joseph is spared by his fidelity to God and also to Potiphar.
It is worth noting that Potiphar, captain of the guard, the officer of Pharaoh, may have been a eunuch.
So Potiphar's wife has unmet needs and is left alone with herself while Potiphar serves the needs of Pharaoh.
Do we fail to meet our spouses needs while we pursue our vocation?
Every man and woman is tempted; and our safety and deliverance is already provided for by God: in our knowledge of Him, in fellowship with each other, and ultimately, in Christ.
