TOPIC: BENEFITS OF A GRATEFUL HEART FULFILMENT OF DESTINY.

BIBLE TEXT: GENESIS 41:14-40
Genesis 41:14-30
[14]Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they brought him hastily out of the dungeon: and he shaved himself, and changed his raiment, and came in unto Pharaoh.
[15]And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, I have dreamed a dream, and there is none that can interpret it: and I have heard say of thee, that thou canst understand a dream to interpret it.
[16]And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, It is not in me: God shall give Pharaoh an answer of peace.
[17]And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, In my dream, behold, I stood upon the bank of the river:
[18]And, behold, there came up out of the river seven kine, fatfleshed and well favoured; and they fed in a meadow:
[19]And, behold, seven other kine came up after them, poor and very ill favoured and leanfleshed, such as I never saw in all the land of Egypt for badness:
[20]And the lean and the ill favoured kine did eat up the first seven fat kine:
[21]And when they had eaten them up, it could not be known that they had eaten them; but they were still ill favoured, as at the beginning. So I awoke.
[22]And I saw in my dream, and, behold, seven ears came up in one stalk, full and good:
[23]And, behold, seven ears, withered, thin, and blasted with the east wind, sprung up after them:
[24]And the thin ears devoured the seven good ears: and I told this unto the magicians; but there was none that could declare it to me.
[25]And Joseph said unto Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh is one: God hath shewed Pharaoh what he is about to do.
[26]The seven good kine are seven years; and the seven good ears are seven years: the dream is one.
[27]And the seven thin and ill favoured kine that came up after them are seven years; and the seven empty ears blasted with the east wind shall be seven years of famine.
[28]This is the thing which I have spoken unto Pharaoh: What God is about to do he sheweth unto Pharaoh.
[29]Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt:
[30]And there shall arise after them seven years of famine; and all the plenty shall be forgotten in the land of Egypt; and the famine shall consume the land; ……………………
