Your gift will make room for you.

Genesis 41:40‭-‬41
You shall be over my house, and all my people shall be ruled according to your word; only in regard to the throne will I be greater than you.” And Pharaoh said to Joseph, “See, I have set you over all the land of Egypt.”

Pharaoh made these statements to Joseph, the one who came to Egypt as a slave. This is staggering to me. Is anything too hard for the Lord? Can anyone stop God? Can any situation discourage or depress God? Nothing, absolutely nothing.

Joseph had a gift of interpreting dreams. He used his gift to help people not to manipulate people. The word says God has given each one of us gifts for the profiting of people. So the gift you possess is for serving people not to become famous. God's purpose in giving you the gift is to enable you to serve people and thereby glorify God. You remember, when Joseph was in prison, he was assigned with the responsibility of taking care of the chief baker and the cup bearer, who were in prison for offending Pharaoh. Both, the chief baker and the cup bearer had a dream and Joseph interpreted their dreams and it happened exactly as he had interpreted. You see, when the cup bearer was restored, he totally forgot about Joseph. What people remember about is not how good you look or how much you know? They remember the problems you solved. So when Pharaoh had a dream, the cup bearer remembered the dream interpreter. People always remember the problems you solved. So use your gift and serve people, solve problems. So Pharaoh sent for Joseph and brought him out of prison and made him stand before Him. Joseph interpreted the dream accurately and his gift made room for him and He was  made the second most powerful person in Egypt. Hallelujah.

All of the wise men and magicians could not interpret Pharaohs dream yet it was so easy and smooth for Joseph. You know why, it was his gift given by God. Friend, what gift has God given you? Birds fly, fishes swim, whats your gift? Discover it and use it to serve people around you. Be lavish and extremely generous with your gift and serve people with the sole purpose of blessing them and glorifying God. Your God given gift will make room for you and bring you before great men and you will glorify God. Honour God with your life and gifts and He will make sure your fruit abides for eternity. Shalom.
