Dare To Dream
It is interesting to wake up in the morning and find out that you have only been dreaming. You wake up and would want to relive that dream because whatever the dream was, it was good and it should have been a real life scenario when you woke up. You never wanted to lose that connection. Sometimes, we say that ‘stop living in dreamland’ indicating that your aspirations and talk are evidently out of your reach. People will tell you, ‘come on, my friend be real’, but how will it look like after a couple of years time, they will see you in another world altogether living the dream that they told you was impossible and out of another world. The fact that we sleep and our spirit communicates in a certain way should tell us that there are possibilities that can be attained, especially when the dream was good. If it was a bad dream, normally it would be a warning message for you to watch out so that you can escape what is ahead.
My friends, dreams are powerful and the day that you begin to dream, it is that day that you began to define your future. I do not mean the dream that you get when you are asleep but rather the ability to use your mind to imagine your future and set goals to achieve, because God wants you to be able to partner with Him by using your mind fruitfully to think (He is able to do exceedingly and abundantly above all that we ask or THINK, according to the power that works in us – Eph. 3:20). So, I want you to get it right, God wants you to use your mind to imagine, actually to dream. Yes, He does and because of this, God requires that you be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove that which is good, acceptable and perfect will of God, Rom. 12:2. A renewed mind is a key to great dreams because you can easily partner with God to bring His kingdom down. This means that God wants to help you achieve your dream because it will bless God, you and people.
As you read this, I encourage you to begin to have a dream for your life and believe that you will live that dream in the not too distant future. Great men have become who they are today for us to take inspiration from all because they had a dream. Martin Luther King, Jr. made the famous and widely acclaimed statement I have a dream and even though people thought it was wishful thinking, you and I are living the reality of that dream. Your dream can live on even when you are dead and gone. Out of that dream has come an unbelievable reality in the person of the US President Barack Obama who famously declared Yes, we can. That has changed the course of history. Can I ask you a question here, who ever said that these are the only ones who can change the course of history and make a lasting impression on this planet? It is your mind that is limiting you, so refuse to be limited and begin to have a dream. Dreams are powerful and have the ability to define your life.
I want to close by letting you know your dreams can be a true reality only when you partner with God because He alone knows your future and has the ability to bring it to pass. The devil only seeks to destroy that future by giving you a false dream which eventually destroys your life even though sometimes it might on the outside look like all is going well, but truly within you, you are a mess. It is for this reason that God wants to partner with you to make your dream real joy within and without. All He requires is for you to surrender your life to Jesus and He will wash away every sin and become your Lord. The partnership will begin there.
