…there is none that can interpret it.
Genesis 41:15-16
Pharaoh had a disturbing dream, but
there was nobody who could interpret it for him. The best in his kingdom could
not. Put yourself in the picture, you also have a dream, you have an issue on
your mind and it is bugging you. It could be about your home, you know all is
not well. You are surrounded with pressure-you've sought for advice from
parents, friends, brothers and sisters, yet you are not satisfied. You have
asked yourself several questions, yet you have gotten more confused instead of
answers.
Don’t be alarmed, Joseph said, “It’s
not in me.” It’s not in you either, to solve the questions and issues bugging
your mind. It’s not in you to give the answer and bring an interpretation. However,
there is good news.
Joseph said, “God will give Pharaoh
an answer of peace.” When God gives you an answer of peace, you will have peace
that passes all understanding. When God gives you an answer of peace, things
will change in your family. When God gives you an answer of peace, you will
stop suffering. The answer of peace can take care of your challenges.
The answer of peace from God can take
care of all kinds of peer pressure, and they will lose their power and
influence in your life. There are habits you desperately want to stop; you have
tried all you could, all to no avail. An answer of peace from God can help you overcome
them.
The answer of peace is the voice of
peace. Proverbs 18:24 says, “There’s a friend that sticks closer than a
brother.” This friend is Jesus. He was with his friends at sea. They faced a
storm and his friends became afraid. They were facing the same issue you are
facing now. Jesus came and gave an answer of peace: ‘peace, be still.” Immediately
there was calmness and peace. My friend, the same calmness is here for you to
take this week and always.
It does not matter the storm you are
going through right now, I bring you good news today. You are qualified to be
peaceful. Peace is your portion, and you can have it. Isaiah 30:15 says, “…in
quietness and in confidence shall be your strength…”
