5Then Joseph had a dream, and when he told it to his brothers, they hated him all the more. 6He said to them, “Listen to this dream I had: 7We were binding sheaves of grain in the field, and suddenly my sheaf rose and stood upright, while your sheaves gathered around and bowed down to mine.”
8“Do you intend to reign over us?” his brothers asked. “Will you actually rule us?” So they hated him even more because of his dream and his statements.
I Had a Dream!
God uses dreams to speak to us. He used a dream to speak to Joseph about Mary and her pregnancy and here He used binding sheaves of grain. Notice the grain because later in Joseph’s life his family will come before him in Egypt to purchase grain because of a drought.
But his brothers react in a prideful fashion and hated him all the more!
Do you react in a prideful fashion?
Blessings, David
