Gen 40:8 (GNB) “... It is God who gives the ability to interpret dreams ..."
In the life of every great man is a key that unlocks his great destiny. For some people, it is prayer; for others, it is the praise and worship of God through music. For Joseph, son of Jacob, it was the “wisdom to interpret dreams.” Joseph was given the ability to interpret dreams. Joseph said, “... It is God who gives the ability to interpret dreams ..." (Gen 40:8; GNB). It is extremely important to discover your God-given key required to unlock your great destiny.
Here are some characteristics of the KEY that unlocks destiny.
1. It is an ABILITY (grace, divine enablement) to do something (Gen 40:8; GNB). Amongst all the several abilities the LORD God has given you, there is a particular one that is meant to unlock your great destiny; evaluate yourself to discover it.
2. It is given by God (Gen 40:8). The Bible says, “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights ...” (James 1:17).
3. It is meant to profit others (Gen. 40:8). The Bible says, “Something from the Spirit can be seen in each person. The Spirit gives this to each one to help others” (1Co 12:7; ERV).
Now, once you discover the key meant to unlock your great destiny, give it all the attention it deserves. The Bible teaches us to “stir up the gift of God, which is in thee” (2Ti 1:6; KJV). Another Bible version says, “fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you” (2Ti 1:6; BSB). In other words, don’t let your God-given “passion” die; fuel it with the required prayer life, Bible study, practice or constant use, and fellowship with men of like passion, who inspire and challenge you. Glory to God!
