Joseph is a perfect example for us to follow in order to live an uncompromising christian life. We many a times think that we cannot live in the pattern of this modern world without making some compromises to our christian qualities. We can never be blessed and helped by God if we live a life with many compromises and when we lower our christian values for petty things of this world. Joseph was exalted by God because he led an uncompromising life to the world under all the circumstances. It is my prayer that the Lord may open our eyes to this danger of compromising to the world and turn us back into uncompromising christians. Let us go through the following article,and ask our Lord Jesus Christ to help us if we lack the zeal for God.

“I am like a sheltered olive tree protected by the Lord himself. I trust in the mercy of God forever and ever.”
-Psalm 52:8 (TLB)
Turn to your Bible and read the wonderful stories of men who were alone in Godless surroundings but who, by the help and presence of the living God, made a marvelous contribution to their own times. Joseph was surrounded by sin and intrigue in Egypt. His master’s wife tried to seduce him. He was tested by imprisonment, but through it all he trusted in God and sought to know and do His will; and he stands today as a wonderful example of the keeping and strengthening power of God in the heart of a man who believed in Him.
