we might not understand what's going on in life..BUT GOD understands completely.
Genesis41:16 reminds us who is the great interpreter" Joseph answered."i cannot, your majesty, BUT GOD will give a favorable interpretation"
The king of Egypt had a dream he didn't understand, something he could not interpret. He knew it had great significance, but he had no idea what it meant.
All of us encounter mysteries along our journey in life. We don't know why someone died. We don't understand why we found ourselves i a predicament beyond our control. we cant explain why we made certain decisions that have disadvantaged us.
Joseph told the king that he could not interpret the dream on his own. BUT GOD would give a favorable interpretation. Even though he was an innocent man, mistreated by his own brother, sold as a slave, jailed unjustly, forgotten and deserted, Joseph maintained great attitude.
...If we lose a pure heart, we lose our ability to see. The apostle John tells us that if we hate our brother, we walk in darkness and cannot see or know where we are going( see 1John 2:11), Jesus told us that the our i heart are blessed and that they shall "see"God(see Matthew 5:8)
..When he heard the dream, Joseph cold immediately see the translation. The dream predicted seven years of abundance, then seven years of famine. Joseph then advised the king to store up reserves in the time of abundance so he would ave enough for himself and others during the famine. The king took Joseph's advice, which ultimately led to Egypt becoming the wealthiest, most powerful nation on earth during that time.
You might have trouble reading the mysteries in your life...BUT GOD is able to interpret them, provide you with insight, and bring you to prosperity!!
