Work Etiquette - Part I

Genesis 39:2-6 , 20-23

The following points are revealed out of these passage,
1. God was with Joseph.
2. Joseph was given all the works and responsibility in Potiphar's house and in the jail. (Must have been given all the works and his masters sat down relaxly)
3. Joseph didnt say back even a single word that he was dumped with work.
4. Joseph obeyed his early masters and worked for God.
5. God blessed the households of Egyptian because of Joseph.
6. Joseph prospered.

Abstract of the above passage and points.... U have to remember thumb rule.... Have your fingers like that....

Thumb Finger: God is with me
Have a faith and bold declaration that God is with me.

Pointing Finger: I am working for GOD
Always take/say that the task, work or anything that we do is for God and not for our PM, SPM or whoever above us.

Middle Finger: I will be prospered at my work place
This is the tallest of all fingers, so as that i will be lifted high by God - easy to remember this point.

If we work for God, our reward will surely come from him. We might not got the recognition at our work place or might not got the proper salary hike or might not be encouraged by ur fellow colleages, don't feel bad.

Remember we are working for God and expect reward from HIM. He is more than able to lift us high at our workplace.

The following points are reserved for furthur discussions,
1. Joseph wouldn't have done all the work by himself. He must have delegated to his fellow workers and manage them - People Management. How to handle people at our work place.
2. Joseph would have told 'NO' or asked his master to rearrage the priorities of his work to accomplish all the works - Saying NO. How to say 'NO' when we are dumped with lot of work.
