God will bless you so abundantly that the sting of past pain completely fades away.

In this powerful message, Joel Osteen shows through the story of Joseph and his son Manasseh how God actively brings you out of hardship into double restoration. Joel highlights how Joseph went from a prison pit to leading Egypt at 03:04 and reveals how Job received double for his trouble after nine months of testing at 23:07.
