S - Genesis 43:32 The waiters served Joseph at his own table, and his brothers were served at a separate table. The Egyptians who ate with Joseph sat at their own table, because Egyptians despise Hebrews and refuse to eat with them.
O- I find this very odd that Joseph ate at his own table because the Egyptians despised Hebrews, but Joseph, being a Hebrew, held the second highest position in all of Egypt. Pharoah most have been extremely impressed in Joseph being able to interpret his dream and also in coming up with the plan that would not only save Egypt but put them in a place where every nation would come to for help through this famine. This shows me that God's favor was on Joseph but evenstill there were definitely people that did not like him.
A - I have this same favor on me that Joseph had because I have been reborn in Christ Jesus. Joseph didn't hide that he was a Hebrew and I don't need to hide that I'm a 100% committed Christian either. However, I know that in doing so there will be others that do not like me or even despise me, but I don't need to live for them but only for God! Have your way with me God!
P - God I come to you this morning and I kneel down before you and praise your holy name. I give my life to you and ask you to have your way with me. I pray that you will look over my family and my wife as they are physically apart from me and I pray that you would protect them and give them health. God, you are amazing and awesome and I just want to be near you every single day.
