How do we know God's providence is true in Joseph's story?

God's providence in Joseph's life is evident through the events that unfold in Genesis 39. While Joseph experiences betrayal and humiliation, he ultimately rises to a position of power and influence in Egypt, enabling him to protect his family during famine. This pattern reflects God's sovereign plan and promise made to Abraham. In this narrative, we see that all circumstances—including slavery and false accusations—serve God's ultimate purpose. Romans 8:28 reassures us that God works all things for the good of those who love Him, making clear the truth of His providence in the lives of His people.
