Doing Good but Being Forgotten

Jeffrey Kent Episode 371

Joseph prospers in the prison because God is with him, and he applies himself.  When the incarcerated chief cupbearer and chief baker have dreams, Joseph offers God's interpretations for them.  The chief cupbearer's dream indicates that he will be restored to his position with Pharaoh.  Joseph asks him to remember his plight, but the chief cupbearer fails to do so.  Joseph is forgotten in the prison, but not by God.
