"I NEED NOT BE CONSIDERED!" - Conclusion

 Finally, the cupbearer remembered Joseph! His conscience stung him, and he told Pharaoh about the remarkable young man in prison who two years earlier had correctly interpreted his dream and that of the baker. Immediately, Pharaoh had Joseph summoned from prison. - GENESIS 41:9-13.

Imagine Joseph's feelings as Pharaoh came with the royal summons. He quickly changed his clothes and shaved-likely removing all the hair from his head. for such was the Egyptian custom. No doubt he prayed fervently that Jehovah would bless him in this interview!  Soon he found himself in the opulent court of the royal palace, standing before the monarch. We read: "Then Pharaoh said to Joseph: 'I had a dream, and there is no one to interpret it." Now I have heard it said that you can hear a dream and interpret it." Joseph's response showed, once again, both his humility and his faith in his God: "I need not be considered!  God will speak concerning Pharaoh's welfare." - GENESIS 41:14-16.
