We are created to dream, God sized dreams.
Be encourage today to look into the lives of those who have traveled before us and find how they dreamed God sized dreams:
1. I will, like Paul, forget those things which are behind me and press forward.
2. I will, like David, lift up mine eyes to the hills from whence comes my help.
3. I will, like Abraham, trust solely in my God.
4. I will, like Enoch, walk in daily fellowship with my Lord.
5. I will, like Jehoshophat, prepare my heart to seek God.
6. I will, like Moses, choose rather to suffer than to enjoy the pleasures of sin.
7. I will, like Daniel, commune with my God at all times.
8. I will, like Job, be patient under all circumstances.
9. I will, like Gideon, stand firm even though my friends seem few.
10. I will, like Aaron, uphold the hands of my spiritual leader.
11. I will, like Isaiah, consecrate myself to God’s work.
12. I will, like Andrew, strive to lead my brother to a closer walk.
13. I will, like John, learn to lean upon the bosom of the Master.
14. I will, like Steven, manifest a forgiving spirit toward those who hurt me.
15. I will, like the heavenly host, proclaim the message of peace and hope.
God help us all to keep alive the dreams and the dreamers we were created to be so that we too can walk in a newness of life in Christ Jesus!
We are where we are today, because someone dared to be different and reached for the stars. Many times under the heavy load of criticism and false accusations, but thank God they were willing to press on anyhow.

Don’t Kill the Dreamers from Joel 2:28.
