If there is one saying I absolutely hate in todays popular vernacular its when people say “it is what it is”. NOOOOO
It is what you believe God to make it.
ABC’s of dreaming:
A – Know your abilities – your dream should match your gifts, talents and passions. If you are 5’5 and want to be the next slam dunk champion… probably not.
If you are a guy who weighs 300 plus pounds and wants to be a fitness model… uhmm
Joseph knew his God so he knew GOD’S DREAMS FOR HIM. If you only know your abilities but don’t know God you will fill your life with meaningless dreams. If your dream is not to advance God’s kingdom it will not fulfill you.
The danger is that you can have a dream but it may not be God’s dream for you.
God gives us all talents and gifts and we can use those anyway we choose – we typically don’t have to seek them out, we discover them out. HOWEVER TO FIND GOD’S DREAMS WE MUST SEEK HIM! KNOW HIM, LISTEN TO HIS HEART!
I wanted to be a professional water skier… but God ended that real quick. I could have been mad, upset and gone my own way! I had to search God’s dream for me…
Some of My dreams are currently to be independently rich so that I can be a pastor for free. To be the best speaker/PREACHER EVANGELIST in the world. To write books that change peoples lives. To heal the sick, blind to see, raise the dead, speak prophetically with intense accuracy - THESE ARE JUST A FEW OF MY DREAMS. I will need God to do all these things.
B- Know your lucky Breaks are coming. I get tired of people who say “oh they are so lucky”. Here is the truth, everyone is given a dream from God, some choose to work, pray and seek God 100% to achieve these. The harder you work, pray and seek the more breaks you get!
IT’S LIKE SAYING TO SOME ATHELETE – YOUR SO LUCKY. LUCKY?
Joseph did not have an easy life.
Despised by his brothers
Sold to slavery
Accused of rape
Sent to prison
Forgotten in prison
But in every situation he chose to continue to serve God- he never gave up his dream.
Some people may have looked at Josephs life and said wow he was lucky, he was always in the right place at the right time… but it was his faith in God that took him to each new level.
I KNOW I HAVE NOT ACHIEVED ALL MY DREAMS YET… IT ACTUALLY GET’S HARDER AS YOU GET OLDER TO HANG ONTO THEM… BUT IM NOT GIVING UP!
C – Know that it takes Courage.
*If you choose to stay on the path you will have to give some things up – it takes courage to do that.
*It takes courage to look at your circumstances and still believe in it. To look at a lack of money, time, education, age etc… and still believe in your dream.
*It takes courage to prioritize your life to meet that dream.
How to get and keep your dream!
First and foremost seek God to give life to your dream!
- Believe in your ability to succeed. You cannot perform in a manner inconsistent from which you see yourself.
2. Get rid of your pride. People who are full of themselves usually don’t have much room left over for a life-changing dream. Pride puts the focus on appearance rather than potential, and it prevents you from taking risks.
3. Cultivate constructive discontent. Discontent is a driving force that makes people search for their dreams. Complacency never brings success and only constructive discontent will motivate you to find your purpose and grow to reach your potential.
- Rely on the Spirit of God to show you steps to take that are led by him and not by man.
