yes, you receive the dream but that doesn’t mean that you’re done. you must finish the job, you must go all the way.
you don’t just start it, you finish it. joseph’s most significant contributions came seven years (at least) after he received his dream, after he was given the signet ring and the robe was put on him. it wasn’t until seven years later he started making the significant contribution, feeding the world and bringing israel down to egypt. that’s the main reason GOD sent him there.
HE wanted to bring the nation of israel down to egypt for over 400 years. that was part of HIS plan. if joseph had given up five years after he had received his dream and said, “i think i’m going to go on to something else,” he would have missed the very reason GOD sent him there.
some of you came to the front porch today just to hear that. GOD brought you here today just to say, “don’t give up short of finishing the dream,” or you’re going to miss the very reason GOD sent you here.
just a thought from the front porch…
