Genesis 40:5 (NKJV)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201c\u2026both of them, each man\u2019s dream in one night and each man\u2019s dream with its own interpretation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Don\u2019t compare lives and don\u2019t compare dreams. Although there may be a similarity in what\u2019s happening to two people, the overall plan for each is different, and we need to stay sensitive to that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Both the Butler and the Baker had offended Pharaoh, and both had been put in the same jail, and both had similar dreams on the same night. So much resemblance but we must avoid group analysis because God deals with us as individuals, not as a group. And the interpretation of our life situations may not be the same, even though the external circumstances may look similar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Each man\u2019s life and each man\u2019s dream has its unique interpretation. Don\u2019t lump your life\u2019s direction with another person\u2019s because there is a similarity. Each person is unique, and let us seek God\u2019s special direction for each man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cLord, may I not be quick to assess anyone\u2019s situation based on comparisons with other people\u2019s historic storylines. Give me the eye to understand each\u2019s uniqueness and therefore treat each one as such. Amen.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
