故事
嫉妒约瑟的兄弟们把他卖给了一群以实玛利人。这些人把约瑟带到埃及，将他又卖给了一个名叫波提乏的官员。
波提乏注意到神使约瑟在他所做的一切事情上都顺利，所以他把约瑟任命为自己一切事物的负责人，无论是在家里还是在田野里。约瑟是一个值得信赖的仆人和二把手。因为约瑟，上帝祝福了这个埃及人的家。
波提乏的妻子是一个邪恶的女人，她说了约瑟的谎。她让他被关进了监狱。然而，神继续与约瑟同在，恩待他。
狱长看到神与约瑟同在，就让他负责监狱里的所有人。有了约瑟的管理，狱长知道事情会顺利进行。约瑟是一个值得信赖的仆人和二把手。神与约瑟同在，让他在所做的一切事情上都顺利。
在监狱里，约瑟遇到了法老的司酒长和司膳长。他们因冒犯法老而被关进监狱。一天晚上，司酒长和司膳长都做了一些他们自己无法理解的梦。
第二天早上，约瑟看到司酒长和司膳长都很忧伤，就问他们怎么了。这两个人解释说他们前一天晚上都做了梦，但是无法理解梦的含义。神赐约瑟解梦的能力，所以约瑟告诉了他的朋友们他们梦的含义。两个梦都像约瑟所说的那样实现了。
两年后，法老在同一晚上做了两个梦。早上他因为这些梦而烦恼。法老召集埃及所有的智者，告诉他们自己的梦，但没有一个能解释这些梦的含义。就在这时，司酒长记起了约瑟，他告诉法老约瑟可以解释他梦的含义。
法老召来约瑟，告诉他自己在同一晚上做了两个梦，但是没有一个智者能解释这些梦。约瑟解释说法老的梦都是一个意思。这些梦揭示了神即将做的事。 神将赐七个丰年，人们将有充足的食物，但此后的七年，人们将无法种植粮食。
约瑟告诉法老他应该储存接下来七年多余的食物，然后在后七年中用这些食物来养活大家，因为他们将无法种植粮食。这个主意对法老来说似乎很好，他就任命约瑟负责整个埃及国。约瑟是一个值得信赖的仆人和二把手。在这七个丰收年里，约瑟让埃及人储存了足够多的食物，以在后七个荒年里养活大家。梦境实现了，就像约瑟所解释的那样。

JOSEPH, SECOND IN COMMAND
The story of how God continued to use Joseph in good times and bad. TOPICS: Blessings, Faith, Joseph, Patience, Protection
DURATION: Approximately 10 minutes Joseph's jealous brothers sold him to a group of Ishmaelites. These men took Joseph to Egypt and sold him to an official named Potiphar.
Potiphar noticed the Lord gave Joseph success in everything he did, so he put Joseph in charge of everything he owned, both in the house and in the field. Joseph was a trustworthy servant and second in command. The Lord blessed the household of the Egyptian because of Joseph. Potiphar's wife was a wicked woman who told lies about Joseph. She had him thrown into prison. However, God continued to be with Joseph and showed him kindness.
The prison warden saw that the Lord was with Joseph and put him in charge of all the people in prison. With Joseph in charge the warden knew things would run smoothly. Joseph was a trustworthy servant and second in command. The Lord was with Joseph and gave him success in whatever he did.
While in prison, Joseph met the king's cupbear and baker. They were put in prison for offending the king. One night both the cupbearer and the baker had dreams that they could not figure out.
The next morning, Joseph saw that the cupbearer and baker were sad and asked them what was wrong. The men explained that they both had dreams the night before, but could not figure out what the dreams meant. God had given Joseph the ability to explain the meaning of dreams, so Joseph told his friends the meaning of their dreams. Both of the dreams came true, just as Joseph said.
Two years later, Pharaoh had two dreams on the same night. In the morning he was troubled because of the dreams. Pharaoh sent for all the wise men of Egypt and told them his dreams, but none of his wise men could figure out the meaning of the dreams. It was at this the time the cupbearer remembered Joseph and told the Pharaoh that Joseph could figure out the meaning of his dreams.
The Pharaoh sent for Joseph and told him that he had two dreams in the same night, but none of his wise men could explain the dreams. Joseph explained that the dreams of the Pharaoh were one and the same. The dreams revealed what God was going to do. God was going to send seven years where there would be more than enough food for all the people, but for seven years after that, people would not be able to grow food.
Joseph told the Pharaoh that he should store up the excess food for the next seven years and then use this food to feed the people during the seven years in which they would not be able to grow food. The idea seemed good to Pharaoh and he put Joseph in charge of the whole land of Egypt. Joseph was a trustworthy servant and second in command. During the seven good years, Joseph had the Egyptians store up more than enough food to feed the people during the seven bad years. The dreams came true just as Joseph had explained.
