Overview
Joseph’s dreams enraged his brothers; even his indulgent father was critical, but he himself had the conviction that they were indications of some future status and supremacy. Then he was sold by his brothers and slandered by a woman, imprisoned by his master and ignored by a butler. The dreams were shattered; would they ever become reality? Interestingly, it was the dreams of others that were the catalysts that turned things around and transferred him from the prison to the palace.
His brothers had cynically remarked, “We shall see what will become of his dreams”. They certainly did! Follow the ups and downs of this young man through the book; catch glimpses of your Saviour illustrated in his life. See in his resilience and his integrity a role model for your life. Realise that shattered dreams can become reality when God is in control.
Author Bio
Jack Hay became a Christian as a boy when living in South West Scotland. He resigned from his employment in Banking in 1972 to serve the Lord in a full time capacity at which time he moved 100 miles north to Perthshire. For a number of years he was involved mainly in pioneer evangelism, but as the years have passed, more time has been spent in teaching the Scriptures. He takes an interest in a few places where simple teaching is needed, e.g. Sri Lanka, and has been visiting there twice a year for the past two years. He has written a number of evangelistic leaflets for John Ritchie – “Safe, Sure and Happy” and also biblical study titles.?
