CHAPTER 13

When the Joseph Ring Is Placed on Your Finger

Then Pharaoh took his signet ring off his hand and put it on Joseph’s hand; and he clothed him in garments of fine linen and put a gold chain around his neck. —G ENESIS 41:42 J WHAT GOES UP will eventually come down. Our words ascend like holy smoke before the throne of the heavenly One, and answers are sent back to the seeker. When God’s blessings are released and the windows of heaven are open over you, then God begins to pour out blessings that you will not have the room to contain (Mal. 3:10). These blessings are more than spiritual bumps on your arms and feeling good about your relationship with the Father. When God manifests His blessings, it is a visible sign of favor to those observing your life. We see one of the greatest examples of divine favor in the events in the life of Joseph. There are some important insights concerning God’s favor in the story of Joseph’s ring.
