Your gift will bring you before kings
Manage episode 312133908 series 3107341
Do you see a man who excels in his work? He will stand before kings; He will not stand before unknown men. Proverbs 22:29 Joseph had a gift to interpret dreams and he used it while in prison. In addition to being a dream interpreter, Joseph was a skilled administrator and manager. We are told that his master's business flourished under him. Even when Joseph was thrown in prison he excelled and was placed in charge of other prisoners. Please don't get me wrong, there is never any justification for the evil that is perpetuated against people. That said, it is important to understand how to overcome this evil. Joseph as we have already seen did not wait for his "oppressors" to create the ideal conditions for him to do well. Joseph skillfully used his gifts and that made away for him and brought him much needed liberty and freedom. There is nothing wrong with setting up advocacy groups to fight for the rights of others. The call for social justice and equality sounds great and it is highly necessary, but this alone will not do it. Government intervention and laws are great, but all laws are limited because a lot depends on the individual and what they do with their gift.
