Six Dreams that Came True

5 Reasons that God entrusted Joseph with 6 life-changing dreams. #BibleLoveNotes #Bible

Joseph’s life involved six dreams: two about his destiny, two about the destiny of two fellow prisoners, and two about the destiny of Egypt (Genesis 37-41).

Why did God entrust Joseph with these dreams?

God had a purpose for Joseph's life, and Joseph had these godly qualities:

1. Joseph gave God the credit (Genesis 40:8; Genesis 41:15-16)
He never took credit for the special insights, abilities, and favor God gave him.

2. Joseph persevered. 
He spent thirteen years in slavery and twenty-two years separated from his family.

3. Joseph refused to be sidetracked by sin (Genesis 39:6-18). 
He refused the advances of Potiphar's wife at great personal expense.

4. Joseph did his best in the worst of circumstances because the Lord was with him (Genesis 39:2, 23).

5. Joseph knew sinful people could not thwart God’s plan (Genesis 50:20).
Genesis 50:20 is an incredible, faith-filled statement much like Romans 8:28.

God has a plan for each of our lives (Ephesians 2:10), and Joseph's example can serve us well.
