Daily Bible Study with Fel and Andy: Genesis - Day 62

It's about this young man.

And we talked about it before you left, Phil, that he dreamed a dream at the age of 17.

Yeah, that's right.

And we looked because very early, 37, we didn't get very far into it really.

His dad, he loves him and he makes him a very colorful coat.

That's what that musical is kind of named after this idea.

And yeah, he's having these dreams.

And he's also, he comes to a point where his brothers don't really like him.

He's got all these big brothers.

They're from another mother, which is probably part of that rivalry that comes forward.

Joseph tells his brothers and his dad about the dreams.

And when we're getting there, these dreams really make Joseph out, which is actually God's will for his life.

He's going to be leading them at some point in the future.

And it's a prophetic dream, we know.

But his brothers, well, they're not a huge fan of it, are they, Andy? No.

No, because he's the second youngest of 12 brothers, and he's basically having a dream that one day he's going to be their leader or their lord.

And it's funny, a lot of people interpret this and say, well, we've got to be careful who you share your dreams with.

But he actually had to share the dream.

Because they hated him, they eventually sell him as a slave.

Then he gets sent to Egypt.

And then in Egypt, all this other stuff happens to him.

And then eventually he gets promoted to become the leader of Egypt.

That was God's plan.

Yes.

Because if he just stayed in his own little setting, his own little town that they were growing up in there, they were country people, they were farmers, he never could have run the world.
