Theme: Joseph was chosen before the pit. So were you.
Before the betrayal, before the pit, before the palace — Joseph dreamed. He didn’t earn the dream. He was marked by it.
Some people are dreamers because they read books or chase success. But then there are those of us who carry dreams that we didn’t ask for — dreams that find us. These aren’t fantasy. They’re prophetic previews of what God has written into our scroll. That was Joseph. That might be you.
Joseph’s dreams weren’t a result of ambition. They were a revelation of identity. They pointed to something heaven-ordained, not man-made. And as soon as he shared them, opposition was triggered.
That’s how it works when you’re carrying something holy.
Dreams from God will attract resistance because they threaten darkness.
🙏🏼 You Were Chosen Before the Conflict
If you’ve ever been told you’re “too much,” “too intense,” or “too spiritual” — take heart. That resistance didn’t start when you opened your mouth. It began when you were marked in the spirit. Joseph was favored by his father and hated by his brothers. Both came from the same source — the dream.
You’re not imagining the warfare.
You’re not crazy for feeling targeted.
You’ve simply been seen in the Spirit.
Before Joseph ever interpreted Pharaoh’s dream, he had to believe in his own.
This is the season to return to the dream — not the version others mocked, but the one you saw in your spirit when no one else believed. The one that makes your heart burn.
🔥 A Word for Dream Carriers:
You’ve been misunderstood, mishandled, maybe even thrown into your own “pit.”
But none of it disqualified you. It confirmed you.
Because God doesn’t give shallow dreams to untested vessels.
He gives destiny to those He trusts with the journey.
You were marked from the beginning.
The dream in you isn’t your idea — it’s Heaven’s.
And Heaven always finishes what it starts.
📖 “Your dreams are not random. They’re prophetic previews of your assignment.”
