Joseph in one day was promoted. If you desire to get a result, this tale is crucial.

What are the things we can learn from Joseph's tales?

1. Joseph had a reputation: Reputation is what people know you for and the ability they know about you. The Butler explained to Pharaoh about Joseph.

What can people say about you? Do you want a great life? Start by building a great reputation that would stand you out.

#GRAService #Wisdom #MyTurnToShine #ChurchGRA

Reputation does not come through prayer; it is driven by your result. A good reputation brings people to you, no matter where they are. They will locate you.

2. Joseph had a result: Can you focus on building and achieving results? Gen 41:13. Your result will speak for you. Where you can't go, your results will go before you.

Remember, words speak while results shout. Your result will attract people of value. Don't just manage to get by, seek the right result. Results will set you apart.

3. Joseph took action: Actions influence the results you get.

Joseph took actions(Gen 41:13) Your results are products of the actions you take. Choose to ignore your current condition and take action. Don't delay.

4. Preparation: Your preparation gives energy to your action. Gen 41:14. You need to look nice, not just in your eyes but also in the eyes of the person you are addressing.

If you don't prepare and your time comes, you will miss it. Always be prepared!

5. Joseph listened: Joseph spent time listening to what Pharaoh had to say. Learn to listen if you want to get results. Listen twice as much as you speak.

#GRAService #Wisdom #MyTurnToShine #ChurchGRA

Don't be in haste to respond; listen first. It may seem like you know what the person would say but you might be wrong. Listen to understand and not just to reply.

6. Joseph understood Pharaoh's expectations: Every time you meet people, try to understand their expectations of you.

7. Joseph went the extra mile: The King asked for an interpretation of the dream. Joseph interpreted it and then gave an advice.

#GRAService #Wisdom #MyTurnToShine #ChurchGRA

Beyond the interpretation was a problem. Every problem has its difficulties and possibilities. Joseph was able to communicate this solution. Be willing to go the extra mile and make a difference.

#GRAService #Wisdom #MyTurnToShine #ChurchGRA

Joseph was successful not just for what he knew but who was with him. He knew that God had a role to play in his success.

You have got to do your best and stay with God. He is the supplier of wisdom. It is all about God and not you alone. May you find things easier this week and beyond.

God bless You!
