Roger Dowd, When It's Time to Change Garments

Joseph wore four distinct garments in his life:

1. The Coat of Many Colors
2. Slave Garments under Potiphar
3. Prison Garments
4. Royal Garments as 2nd-in-Command

Per Charles Swindoll:

1. Surprises are always part of God’s leading.
2. Surprises always intensify our faith.
3. Stepping out in faith always brings clarification to God’s plan.
4. Obedience always stimulates growth.

It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the Lord.
