SCRIPTURE:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his children, because he was the son of his old age: and he made him a coat of many colours. And when his brethren saw that their father loved him more than all his brethren, they hated him, and could not speak peaceably unto him. And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it<\/em> his brethren: and they hated him yet the more. And he said unto them, Hear, I pray you, this dream which I have dreamed: For, behold, we were<\/em> binding sheaves in the field, and, lo, my sheaf arose, and also stood upright; and, behold, your sheaves stood round about, and made obeisance to my sheaf. And his brethren said to him, Shalt thou indeed reign over us? or shalt thou indeed have dominion over us? And they hated him yet the more for his dreams, and for his words. (Genesis 37:3-8<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DEVOTIONAL:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Word of God says a lot about dreamers and their dreams. Let\u2019s look at the life of Joseph:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

God\ngave Joseph this dream, but once Joseph decided\nto tell the dream to his family that\u2019s when everything began to fall apart.\nHis brothers hated that he had the dream, and they hated\nthat he told them about it. They also hated him for what the dream\nmeant. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now\nin verses 9\u201310, it says: \u201cAnd he\ndreamed yet another dream, and told it his brethren, and said, Behold,\nI have dreamed a dream\nmore; and, behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars made\nobeisance to me. And he told it <\/em>to\nhis father, and to his brethren: and his father rebuked him, and said unto him,\nWhat is<\/em> this dream that thou hast dreamed?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

God often prepares leaders through dreams. One of the first\nthings God gave to Joseph was a dream. Many inventions and innovations have\nbeen birthed through dreams because dreams inspire curiosity and creativity. A\ndream is a powerful tool that God often uses to prepare individuals for\nleadership. Initially, a dream is subjective because you are the only one to\nsee it. And even if you tell the dream to someone else, people can reject the dream and the dreamer\nas was the case with Joseph. Nevertheless, if you are\ngoing to become a leader with vision, you must have a God-given dream\u2014which\ncan take place while you are asleep or awake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PRAYER:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dear God, thank you for the dreams You have given to me. Help me to understand the meaning of these dreams and what steps You want me to take next. Help me also to be wise in sharing my dreams with others. In Jesus\u2019 Name, Amen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
