I think tv1a's point was that Joseph was being blessed every step of the way - even in his suffering and testing. The "no weapon formed against thee shall prosper...."

My point was that I agree Joseph was being blessed, even in prison, but I don't think the typical Prosperity Doctrine teaches that. It seems to only reflect on monetary gain.
