When Dreams Come True: the Story of Joseph

"In the last days," God says, "I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, Your young men will see visions, Your old men will dream dreams." Acts 2:17 As the Old Testament story of Joseph illustrates, one of the ways God leads His people is through dreams and visions. The question is, what happens when we pursue those dreams and visions? The natural tendency is to think that things will go from good to better to best. After all, isn't that what the Lord promises to His people? So, when it doesn't, when instead it goes from good to bad to worse, as sometimes it does, we are often left confused and sometimes embittered. "God, where are you?" is the cry of our heart in times like this. What the story of Joseph illustrates so clearly is that sometimes the Lord uses the adversities of life to refine both our vision and our character so that we can better fulfill the purposes of God in our generation. Packed with practical wisdom and insight, this book is a must-read for anyone who longs for their dreams to come true.
