(then what?)
Here's the good news.
Your future (destiny) isn't determined by your present circumstances.
It gets determined by the size of your dreams.
By your perception of what's possible.
By God's plan and purpose for your life.
BUT!
While God puts the dream inside you, you have to resist minimizing it down to what you think is possible.
Most people dream about one inch from their present circumstances.
They reduce a God-sized dream down to a man-sized dream.
They call this being realistic, limiting what's possible down to your past limited experiences.
It's through this biblical promise that my dreams and desires get set.
Ephesians 3:20 AMP - Now to Him who is able to [carry out His purpose and] do superabundantly more than all that we dare ask or think [infinitely beyond our greatest prayers, hopes, or dreams], according to His power that is at work within us.
Here are the ingredients of the dream ...
- carry out His purpose
- do superabundantly
- more than all we dare ask
- more than all we dare think
- infinitely beyond your greatest prayers
- infinitely beyond your greatest hopes
- infinitely beyond your greatest dreams
- according to His power that is at work within us
If you dare muster up the faith and courage to go after a God-Planted dream, you will be tested.
There is a predicable journey you will walk through from dream to destiny. There will be some valleys.
Tomorrow I'll lay out the four predictable seasons of the journey.
Don't wait for more favorable circumstances. Your time is right now!
If you surrender what you have to God — right now. He will multiply it.
