Genesis 39:4 And Joseph found grace in his sight, and he served him: and he made him overseer over his house, and all that he had he put into his hand. 5 And it came to pass from the time that he had made him overseer in his house, and over all that he had, that the Lord blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake; and the blessing of the Lord was upon all that he had in the house, and in the field.
During the years just prior to the Great Depression, God again opened up opportunities for nations and individuals just as He did for Joseph, for Abraham, and for the three stewards in the parable. What we now refer to as the roaring twenties, was actually God in His kindness, opening up windows of opportunity to the stewards of that era, and what they did with the blessings would make manifest if they were being led by the prudence and discretion found in Christ alone.
Just a few years ago, a convergence of contributing factors was permitted and orchestrated by The God of heaven, to open up windows of opportunity for stewards in our day. As Covid ravaged the country, working from home became the norm, which in turn triggered massive internal migration.
At the same time, interest rates were at an all time low, near zero, triggering a buying frenzy, which in turn caused a ripple effect of the phenomenal spike in the price of real estate, and like Joseph, Abraham and the three stewards in the parable, it was left up to persons to make the most of the opportunity.
Matthew 25:29 For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.
May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
