Overview:
Let's continue from where we left off in part one. Can you imagine how rejected and betrayed Joseph must have felt after his older brothers who should be protecting him from imminent danger, were the very ones who compromised his safety? Had they known the plan of God for Joseph's future, i wonder what they would have done then?
On the other hand, they might have known that there was something definitely extraordinary about this little guy, considering these strange dreams that made them felt less spiritual than their younger brother. Joseph's new coat of many colors from his dad Jacob was no doubt causing some kind of jealousy.
Unfortunately, these older brothers had no prophetic knowledge of what the coat of many colors meant and what the dream was actually saying prophetically in a spiritual way. Please take a keen note here 'PROPHETIC', in many cases, the people around you including family, for the most part can sense when there is something different about your future than that of theirs'. And many times, with that knowledge, it can cause some kind of compromise in the way they treat you. It's called 'devious jealousy' and or 'satanic jealousy'. It is satanic because it is associated with harm and hypocrisy. In other words, this type of jealousy has no respect of persons, it will inflict harm and keep resuscitating it, sometimes over a lifetime. It is very dangerous to the person it is targeted.
Back to Joseph's coat that his dad gave him. This special gift was very likely one of the issues gossiped among his brethren. Keep in mind as well, that Jacob was given the prophecy by God that his name was changed to Israel. That's the prophecy of a nation right there, so can we assume God meant greatness with such anointing upon Jacob's life? A prophecy that Jacob himself could not even wrap his head around at that time. In fact, there was nothing around Jacob in the physical that he could see with his physical eyes to dictate any such miracle coming to him.
Well, that is just another proof that GOD knows our beginning to the end. Jacob indeed became the father of the twelve tribe of Israel long after such divine declaration. Therefore, I do believe however, that Jacob had an idea that Joseph was going to be great but might not have known how or when. Or, whether or not he would even see his son's greatness in his lifetime. So most likely, the coat of many colors was a prophetic move for Joseph's Royalty futuristic ally. Hmmmmm.
This is very interesting because, if you read the story carefully, (Gen 37) his brothers hated him because of the love his dad had for him. Yes, they hated him but his dreams just escalated the hate. Now, you will notice that after Joseph was sold to the Egyptians, they gave their dad (Jacob/Israel) the impression that Joseph might have been killed by wild animals with the evidence of a bloody coat apparently belonged to Joseph. His brother's intent was to destroy his destiny, because they understood the interpretation of the dream Joseph communicated to them. (vs 8) His brethren said to him, "shalt thou indeed reign over us? Or shalt thou indeed have dominion over us? they hated him for his anointing to see the future in his 'prophetic dreams'.
The the next point is, look at (vs 9), the next dream Joseph had was even more troubling, the solar system is now playing a role in this young man's life, 'Sun, Moon and Stars bowing to him. His very beloved dad is getting beside himself with such anointing that cannot be disputed and nobody seemed to know how to handle these prophetic revelations. Hmmmmm, Hallelujah! But notice this keenly, Jacob/Israel was very concerned (vs 11) the bible states, "his father observed the thing". Jacob understood some things about his God based on previous experiences even from his own dad Isaac and grand dad Abraham. Hence, deep down in the spirit of his mind, he knew this child was about to experience the move of God in his life in a very unique way although he didn't know how or when but he believed God would allow these visions to manifest.
In (vs 34-35), after Jacob assumed (did not accept) his son might have been killed, he rented his clothes and mourn for days. But here is the key note i think, the bible states, Jacob refused to be comforted and rather go to his grave mourning. He was torn apart in pain hearing of such tragedy to this prophetic son. Why was Jacob refused to be comforted by his family? Could it be that he was confused about why would God allow his son to die before the child's prophecy came to pass? Didn't make any sense to him, that wasn't what God had put in his spirit. Jacob knew something was not right about this whole scenario but could not put his hand on the answer to his problem. He rather go to the grave mourning the so-called death of his son's destiny.
Remember what the coat meant? It meant Prophetic, Leadership and or Royalty. A typology of the coming Messiah that no one at that time understood in the prophecy that was prophesied by the prophet Isaiah in (Isaiah 53). He was led as a lamb to the slaughter. Furthermore, Isaiah never came on the scene as yet. Think about that. Our God is indeed mysterious. Good God Almighty!
The Lord of host must be worshiped, people of God, Lift your voice like a trumpet and worship the God of heaven and earth! He is the God who has been keeping us from the dragon of death, and is able to preserve our destiny into His will for our lives. Be strong in the Lord.
.
Say this prayer with me now:
(1) Any demonic power, preparing to demote my destiny, i dismantle your plans now and i bind you and cast you into the bottomless pit where you belong in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
(2) You destiny waster, hear the word of the Lord, you are a lier the blood of Jesus prevails against you now and forever in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
(3) You Destiny destroyer, my family and i are not your candidate, therefore die, die, dieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
PS: (please note, when u pray and say die, that means, u are declaring your spiritual power over that spirit, that it cannot harm you and u have the power over it. Its not about people its about spiritual warfare, spiritual wickedness in high places as the scripture teaches. So, these prayers are strategic and warlike and is targeted destroy the plans of the enemy over our lives. Demonic spirits come to steal, kill and destroy says the word of God so its in our God-given rights to destroy satan and his agents before they destroy us).
Be blessed.
