Genesis 41-45
“And Pharaoh said unto his servants, Can we find such a one as this is, a man in whom the Spirit of God is? And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Forasmuch as God hath shewed thee all this, there is none so discreet and wise as thou art: Thou shalt be over my house, and according unto thy word shall all my people be ruled: only in the throne will I be greater than thou.” Genesis 41:38-40
Dear God, my hope is that one day I will find myself in a position of influence as Joseph did but Lord, in my heart of hearts, I know that I am not the man that Joseph was. I know beyond an shadow of a doubt that I am nowhere near where I must be to have such influence and power. My hope is that I will be used for great things but Lord, I pray that You would not allow me to move up until I have become a wise and disciplined man to do so. Lord, I have tried to move up faster than I should have in the past and I know that it leads to nothing but frustration and discouragement. Lord, I cannot describe how much my heart desires to do something great, help me to be the man to be used in that manner.
