Do not give up your dream !

"Once Joseph had a dream ..." Genesis 37.5

"One night I also had a dream, I was in a prison and I told my brethren all that God had done for me."

Some time later, this dream became my vision, an arduous goal that God was asking me to reach. How was I going to do that ? Justice had deprived me of all my civil rights and my criminal record was overflowing with condemnations.

There is undoubtedly a dream that God has delicately laid upon your heart.

Faced with all these impossibilities, the desire to abandon and put aside this dream to direct me to things that were within my reach, has crossed my mind several times.

However, after years of waiting and prayer, the dream of God has miraculously fulfilled. My civil rights have been restored and my criminal record totally laundered ... The result : today I go through the prisons, testify to my brothers, offer books to the staff, in short I live the dream of God !

"We know, moreover, that all things work together for the good of those who love God, of those who are called according to his purpose." Romans 8:28

There is undoubtedly a dream that God has delicately laid upon your heart. It is probable

That he occupied the center of your life, your prayers, and all your efforts. Then the time has passed, and obstacles, unexpected, exhaustion, discouragement have invited you on your journey leading you to believe that it would be simpler to give up this dream.

Do you know that the majority of people who abandon their dreams can no longer flourish and are tortured by remorse ? Is that perhaps what you are experiencing as well ?

So let me tell you that these feelings are blatant proof that God does not approve of your choice. So, he will use that dissatisfaction you feel, like an electroshock so that your dream comes back to life.

"The things that I show you will happen, but only at the appointed time. They will soon be realized, it is not a lie. Wait with confidence, even if it is long. Yes, for sure, they will arrive without delay." Habacuc 2.3

Repeat this dream that you have set aside and be confident, for God Himself will lead you there.

A commitment for today

Father, I am on my way to the fulfillment of my dream ! In the name of Jesus.
