DARE TO DREAM....
copywrite jmoore 5.25.12
Then the Lord answered me and said:“Write the vision and make it plain on tablets, that he may run who reads it. 3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time;but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie.Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry. 4 “Behold the proud, his soul is not upright in him; but the just shall live by his faith. Habakuk 2:2-4
When God gives a great mandate you can be assured that the opposition will be great.. I am often.. VERY OFTEN.. reminded of Joseph and the DREAM that led him to be thrown into a pit, sold into slavery, falsely accused, unjustly imprisioned.. all for the sake of the fulfillment of his destiny for the purpose of the kingdom.
His journey to the palace was not a pleasant one and the route was more like that of a treacherous aobstacle course... but in it all Joseph "served the vision and mandate" that God gave to him by serving in prison.. serving in Potipher's house.. serving wherever he found himself.. He served other prisioners, he served the prison wardens.. and he served with gladness in his heart.
Joseph's service built him a resume (reputation) that qualified and positioned him in readiness to be recognized by royalty to relegate with appropriation and litigation the actualization of the dream he dreamed as a boy.. Though his dreamed SEEMED impossible to attain, his service to the dream transitioned him FROM the pit TO the palace.. for the benefit of the multitude..
Little did Joseph's family know that the dream he had, that same dream they despised him for, had global purpose. Little did they know that in trying to kill his vision, they were actually fueling his mandate. Little did they know that Joseph's dream had the potential to save their lives.
Are you dreaming an impossible dream? Write that vision and make it plain.. keep it before you to encourage you through the discomforts and discouragements of the obstacle course... Recognize the course as a means to build spiritual muscle needed for the positioning and execution of the mandate from a global seating.. I DARE YOU TO DREAM..
