DAILY READINGS: Exodus 23:10-33; Psalms 66-67; Acts 13:1-25

And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, It is not in me: God shall

These dreams are the third group that Joseph experienced. The
first set concerned Joseph and his brothers, his immediate family; the
second set (the butler and baker) moved beyond family to the immediate
world; this last set had even wider implications, the national
and international world. In addition to the expanding sphere,
Joseph’s approach to expressing and explaining the dreams grew
with each. There was more Joseph and less God in the first group of
dreams, but more God and less Joseph in the third pair. God was
moulding His man even as He used him! —C. Funston
