Reading the story of Joseph, I understood something. He was given a dream, the revelation was through the dream, and the wisdom is what GOD did to bring him there. I remembered the bible verse Ephesians 1:17, I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. What does this Bible verse mean? When we ask  Abba Father for the Spirit of wisdom and revelation to know Him better, we are asking Him to reveal Himself to us and to use what He revealed to us to steward it. This is to also protect us because remember what Proverbs 3:5-6 says, Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. Trusting in the LORD and not ourselves makes a difference. 

For example, you want to learn to play the guitar. For you to play the guitar, you will need a tutor or some type of book to help you learn how to play the guitar. You will need to know the melody in the strings, how to hold the guitar, and how to use the guitar pick to play the melody. You cannot learn to play on your own per se, unless you’re good at picking up sounds, but you will still need to be taught; you will need to know certain things about the guitar from someone who already knows how to play the guitar. And when you do get the lessons, you are being revealed how to play it, so that you learn to steward, in wisdom, what you’ve learned and apply it when you play the guitar. The guitar is like the dream; the revelation is the lessons, and the wisdom is stewarding the lessons you’ve learned. 

Remember, the fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom (Proverbs 9:10). When you are in GOD, when you are in Christ, you are being built in His wisdom, established in understanding who He is, and filled with His knowledge to steward what He’s given you about Him through His wisdom (Proverbs 24:3-4). 

Walk in Him, Know Him, Trust in Him, by walking in the Spirit of wisdom and revelation to know Him and His will. Walk in power, love, and sound mind in Jesus’ name.
