Joseph didn't stand out because he made Egypt to profit during the days of plenty...No! Joseph stood out because he knew what it takes to be productive during 7 years of famine.
In today's world...when you build a ship or any automobile...it is tested in a "Test rig" before it is certified for use, but when Noah built his ark...there was no Laboratory, nor Rig for his ark to be tested...yet...it stood the storm for 40 days.
Friends, It's time to deploy yourself fully into your craft...because if you are giving just enough, there is coming a time...when 100% will become the new average.
Jacob was soooo good at his job, that he could literally determine what kind of offspring will be produced.
They used to say...Isaac prospered in the days of famine...It's important to note that...in the days of famine, Isaac and his men dug wells...NOT WELL...WELLS...they produced their own water so they can sustain their crops. What you call Irrigation today was first started by Isaac. Gen. 26:12-22.
Let's put this in perspective: Abraham dug wells, the Philistines seized it; Isaac dug AGAIN the wells: They dug the first well, it was seized; they dug the second well, it was also seized. By the end of the third well those who hated them knew they couldn't stop them.
.
They dug those wells...manually, not with some digging or borehole technology. They dug those wells in the days of scarce rainfall (famine).
It's a shame without Technology, humanity was used to work ethics that out lived their existence...but these days, technology has heightened our laziness.
Don't just "Dream Big"...but be ready and be willing to "Work Big".
You will not fail!
Good morning and Happy New Week!
