Listen to what other have tell you because it could help you in the end.

No matter what trust in God and do what he tells you.

We should act like Joseph. Because he helped the servants even

though he didn’t have to.“Joseph said to him in reply ‘This is what it means the three baskets are three days; within three days Pharaoh will lift up your head and have you impaled on a stake and the birds will be pecking the flesh off your body.” Genesis 40: 18-19

The criminals crucified along with Jesus are represented by the servants of the King.

The wine pourer represents the man who asked for forgiveness.

The baker represents the one who does not follow God.

Page 6: Genesis 40 and 41

By trusting God and having faith will help you to grow closer to God.

God will help you be guided to heaven, and lead you away from temptations.

Others can help you along the way.

Pharaoh had two dreams: Both had 7 years of famine and 7 years of abundance.

Joseph opened all the cities during the famine and rationed the food for the Egyptians

Pharaoh took Joseph out of prison to interpret his dreams. Everything he said came true.

Page 8: Genesis 40 and 41

Key characters: Pharaoh, Joseph, and God

Events: Pharaoh’s dreams, Joseph traveling to Egypt, Joseph interpreting the dreams.

Theme: 7 years of famine and abundance

Page 9: Genesis 40 and 41

We can listen to what our spiritual leaders tell us.

We should act like Joseph because he is messenger of God.

Pharaoh looked through magicians to interpret the dream instead of God.

“When the 7 years of abundance enjoyed by the land of Egypt the 7 years of famine set in just as Joseph had predicted.” Genesis 41:53-54

Page 10: Genesis 40 and 41

The 7 years of famine is like before creation

The 7 years of abundance is like the 7 days God made the world.

Joseph rationed the wheat as Jesus distributed the fish and bread.

Always look to God for help. Always be positive in a bad situation

because God will make it good. With God all things are possible.
