We are a product of God’s dream. When
God created us He put a little bit of Himself in each of us. Part of our DNA is
to be able to dream. When we dare to dream, we’re like God. When we confine
ourselves into everyday monotony, we’re limiting our endless possibilities.
Living life without a dream is like a GPS without a satellite.
Most of us start off in life with
great expectations. But negative experiences keep us from dreaming. When we are
disappointed about something we’re once so passionate about we stop dreaming.
Broken promises, broken dreams make us lose passion for life. Today I want to
light a fire in you – dare to dream again! If you dream it; God will bring it
(to pass). Dreams still come true!
Another deterrent to dream is time.
When we pursue our dream and nothing happens for a long time we tend to put our
dreams in the back burner. Once we’re so eager to get a college degree but now its
way down in the priority list. Once we’re determined to take a voice lesson or
improve on our skills but now they are on hold. Time has a way of robbing us
from our dreams. Don’t let time keep you from dreaming.
If
God has said it He will do it. He wants you
to live happy, fulfilled and a productive life.
I have many friends who are waiting for
their ship to arrive. They want their business to turn around. I have friends
who want their relationships to be restored. Then there are others who have
been sick for a long time. Few of my friends are still looking for a job or a
better job. Some are waiting for their children to turn around. Friend, it’s
good to wait for your ship to arrive. But then there are times, you have to
swim to your ship in the ocean! No matter how long it has been and how many
setbacks you’ve had, you must sail again.
As a Christian leader, I find it
offensive that non-believers are redefining our culture. They have an agenda.
They’re passionate about life. They are top producers. They’re inventing new things.
Today I want to encourage us to dream BIG dreams. Dreaming ignites creativity.
Dream makes us pregnant with hope, purpose and passion. Where is your dream
taking you today? Are your dreams big enough to change the world or do they
just involve you and your family? If we’re not living our dream now, let me
sound an alarm – you’ll have a lot to catch up with as you grow older. Even
worse, you’ll have a lot of regrets reminiscing what could have been. I
challenge you to live now. Make the most of what you have now. Give your best
at what God has called you to be. You are a world changer! Don’t just breathe; live life to the fullest. Set goals, plan and
pursue. God is with you and He is for you.
The Bible is full of people who
pursued their dreams. It took Moses forty years but he led God’s people to the
Promised Land. Abraham, Joseph and David all had to wait but they succeeded.
The dreams and visions in your heart are from God. If you go after it you too
will succeed. Awaken the giant within you. You’ve got what it takes. You’ve got
heavens resources to back you up. This week, dream BIG and help someone fulfill
their dream. When you help fulfill their dreams, God will help you with yours. Your
business will go to a new level. Your church will grow. Your marriage will be
restored. Your child will come home. Your health will spring forth. Your debts
will be canceled. Will you dare to dream again? I know you will. Tell us how we
can pray for you.
“Write the vision and make it plain on tablets, that he may run who reads it. For the vision is
yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not
lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; because it will surely come, it
will not tarry”
(Habakkuk 2:2-4 NKJV).
What are your dreams?
