Love – all man-kind
Joy – in the LORD
Peace – tranquility innerman
Longsuffering – waiting period but serving
Gentleness – kind, mild, quiet and a calmness in his spirit that God the Father was with him
Goodness – well behaved; a good example of God the Father
Faith – to believe God the Father for the outcome of good and not of evil without seeing it manifested yet.
QUESTION
WHY DO YOU THINK FAITH WAS THE LAST FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT GIVEN?
◦ Because if Joseph (we) can receive the other eight attributes faith is just believe its done already!
◦ CONFIDENCE – BELIEF
PROSPEROUS MAN
Joseph became a prosperous man in the house of his master.◦ WHY? He serve with all of his heart, mind and soul
He did it with a wiliness of heart
He took all his cares to God not man (master)
He was a good steward over what was entrusted into his care
He received a promotion because of his ability to follow a LEADER and was able to receive INSTRUCTION from that MASTER.
IN THE HOUSE OF HIS MASTER THE EGYPTIAN Joseph was in a strange place but, never the less he
took ownership of the place.
Joseph saw an opportunity to bring about change to the MASTER’S HOUSE; not his own agenda but the LEADER VISION.
Joseph stood out from the crowd because of his wiliness to serve without looking for special privilege given to him by the MASTER
Because of Joseph relationship with God the Father he receive more than he expected
