God spoke some prophecies directly to the heart of the individual; Joseph had prophetic dreams given to him at night. The dream of his family bowing down to him was fulfilled, not just once, but four times. Today, God speaks to individuals by word (The bread) or by picture (The lamp) just as He did during biblical times.
Gen 37:7 We were binding sheaves of grain out in the field when suddenly my sheaf rose and stood upright, while your sheaves gathered around mine and bowed down to it."
Gen 42:6 Now Joseph was the governor of the land, the person who sold grain to all its people. So when Joseph's brothers arrived, they bowed down to him with their faces to the ground.
Gen 43:26 When Joseph came home, they presented to him the gifts they had brought into the house, and they bowed down before him to the ground.
Gen 44:14 Joseph was still in the house when Judah and his brothers came in, and they threw themselves to the ground before him.
Gen 50:18 His brothers then came and threw themselves down before him. "We are your slaves," they said.
