The Dreamcatcher


Chapters 40-41:

These passages could be called "The Dreamcatcher" as we see Joseph sharing God's meaning for dreams: first the Pharoah's cupbearer and his baker; then for the Pharoah himself. The Pharoah was so impressed by this man of God that he made him second-in-command for all of Egypt.
Joseph implemented a plan to save food from the seven good years to the nation (Egypt) would be able to survive the following seven years of famine. Our small groups discussed how faith and God's Spirit can guide us through turmoil and challenges.
For next time, continuing reading beyond chapter 41, to the conclusion of the story of Joseph. We will study the culmination of events leading to his reunion with his family, and the revealing of God's greater plan.
