Look, this dreamer is coming!
“Now, when they saw him afar off, even before he came near them, they conspired against him to kill him. Then they said to one another, “Look, this dreamer is coming! Come, therefore, let us now kill him and cast him into some pit; and we shall say, ‘Some wild beast has devoured him.’ We shall see what will become of his dreams!” (Genesis 37:18-20)
Stop daydreaming! Is usually the phrase or wake up call people say to those who appear to have been lost in their thoughts. Or to a student staring past the teacher and seem not to be aware of what is going on in the class! While it might look out of place to be ‘lost’ in our dream,
it is however not bad to live out our dreams.
Let’s look at the life of the biblical Joseph’s again,
The brothers retorted here comes the dreamer!
That means Joseph was not only a dreamer, but he lived out his dream by sharing it with his brothers and behaving it out in some way
Don’t be discouraged by commentators that said Joseph should have kept quiet about his dream; hence, he would not have been besieged by the challenges that came his way.
What is your dream?
If your dream is truly from God, your stars will make you shine out.
Challenges will still come.
Learn to act upon your idea.
Believe your God-given dream;
“Arise, you sleeper! Rise up from the dead, and the Anointed One will shine his light into you.” Ephesians 5:14 (TPT)
Say it out like Jesus could tell Pilate for this purpose I was born.
When challenges come your way, don’t use your mouth to negate your God-given dream by outright denial of your purpose in life.
Don’t let your dream remain only in the dreamland
Take a step today to actualize your Purposeful life
