Genesis 35, 37:1-11(Brian) - Dreams were highly respected in Bible days as a source of divine revelation.  God had given this gift to Joseph.  Joseph is the character we will study, and I pray we will see how God’s plan continues to move forward.  God allows this gift to used so His purpose continues to move ahead.In this part of the story, Joseph will have 2 dreams which do not require much imagination to interpret—he obviously thinks he will rule over his brothers. The brothers are offended; they interpret the dreams as “delusions of grandeur”. Joseph indicates that he will gain supremacy over his entire family. His dreams came true in Egypt.  And the gift of the dream showed that God will use even this gift,  as a beginning to see how God’s purpose always prevails.What do we do when our lives get turned upside-down? Where is God when our hopes are shattered? He’s still around, still involved, still has a purpose for our lives, even our trials. Despite everything he suffered, Joseph seems able to accept God’s will; rather than ask God “why?”, his main concern is “What do I do now?” We learn from Joseph that with God’s help, any situation can be turned around and used for good, even when others intend it for evil.
