A standing sheaf,
A shining star.
My dream reveals
Who God’s people are.
We’re full of light,
And life divine,
We live in Christ,
In us He shines.
A shining star.

A “master of dreams,”
I choose to live in what I’ve seen.
For Christ in me beams,
A shining star, a living sheaf.

Though many fail,
And fall to sin.
It doesn’t change—
God’s chosen them.
We’re not a judge,
But shepherds true.
We overcome
So they can too.
And fall to sin.
It doesn’t change—
God’s chosen them.
We’re not a judge,
But shepherds true.
We overcome
So they can too.

The world is but
A glance away.
It speaks to me
To sin each day.
But I will flee,
With others too.
We reign as kings,
The lust subdue.
A glance away.

Yes, I’ve seen the dream!
I live in Christ and He in me!
His word I believe!
The vision’s real and reigns in me.

We won’t be swayed
To love the world.
Though ev’n betrayed,
We’ll gain the Lord.
Restricted now,
In grace He’ll train,
The coming age
With Him to reign.

"My burden is to point out that Joseph was released from prison through his speaking by faith. Joseph dreamed that he was a sheaf rising up and that his brothers were bowing down to him. Ten years went by, and still this dream had not been fulfilled. If this had happened to us, we would have been disappointed to the uttermost and said, "Forget about this dream. I'm through with being a dreamer and with hearing about dreams." Joseph was seventeen or eighteen years of age when he was first put into prison, and he was about twenty-eight years of age when he interpreted the dreams of his two companions in prison. He was released from the dungeon by speaking. Eventually, by his speaking, Joseph was released from prison. If he had not spoken to the cupbearer, there would have been no one to tell Pharaoh about Joseph. It was the cupbearer who brought the news to Pharoah that there was someone in prison who could interpret dreams. (Gen. 41:9-13) Therefore, Joseph was released from prison indirectly through his interpretation of the cupbearer's dream. Whether or not the vision works depends upon your mouth. If you say no, it will not work for you. But if you say yes, it will work for you, even though it does not work for others. It all depends on whether you say yes or no. If you say no, it will be no; and if you say yes, it will be yes. Concerning the dream, the vision, it matters a great deal whether we say yes or no, for either our yes or our no will come true.
Joseph was truly a dreamer, and his life was a life of dreams. A victorious and overcoming Christian will always be a dreamer. You need to have dreams, and you need to interpret the dreams of others. Day by day let us all speak according to our vision, according to our dreams. Furthermore, we must interpret the vision of others, and we must live according to our vision. We should not speak according to our feelings but according to the vision. We are visionaries. Because we are visionaries, we do everything according to the vision. Although a certain thing has not yet come to pass, we speak according to what we have seen of it, and we find out that our vision is being fulfilled." (Joseph - The Reigning Aspect of a Mature Believer, Chapter 5, The Secret of Joseph's Release and Exaltation)
Prayer: O Lord Jesus, may we all learn to speak in faith and by faith! Train us and perfect us to speak not according to our feeling or experience, but according to the vision. Cause this vision to constitute us dreamers, living a life of dreams, in order to express Yourself, the Master of dreams, corporately in the church, full of living sheaves and shining stars. We choose to live in what we've seen for Christ in me beams... a shining star... a living sheaf!

Christ beams in us! The world is only a glance away, tempting us to sin each day, but we won't be swayed to love the world!! We will flee, subdue the lust, and reign as kings! Lord, we fail so many times, but no matter what, You have chosen us. We want to be those who overcome and turn this age!

站立禾捆，发光明星，神子民在我梦中如是。 满了光并神圣生命，住基督里，让祂在我显耀
我是做梦的人，我一生活我所看见，基督照我里面，发光的星，站立的禾捆
虽许多失败，于罪中沉溺。神的拣选无所能改。非为审判官，应是牧羊人，率先得胜引人同得赏
世界离我并不遥远，它时引诱致我日跌倒，但我会逃，同我清心伴，如王掌权，来使欲为奴
我-确-见-其-实！彼此内住何其真实！祂话我所信！真实异象，作我管治
不爱世界，永不动摇。何来亏损，我总赢得。今时受管，恩中成全，不久之日同祂掌权

Love this! :) Fills me with joy! A standing sheaf, a shining star! God's people are full of light! It's so good to have our vision enlarged!
“If even the little ones are influenced by what they see, then how much more was the young may Joseph influenced by the heavenly vision, the vision that he was a sheaf rising up full of life and that he was a star worshipped by all the other stars!
Do you not believe that Joseph was influenced and impressed by this vision? I definitely believe that he was. The point I am making is that Joseph's excellent and marvelous behavior was due to the vision he received. The vision of his two dreams controlled his life and directed his behavior.
He behaved as the sheaf standing up and full of life, and he conducted himself like a heavenly star shining in the darkness. With this viewpoint, you are able to understand the significance of these three chapters. ”
