Do you dream?

Do you have a God given dream? A dream that you know was placed in your heart by our Father, and that you must realise before you die?

Do you have something that drives you to do certain things to make that one thing happen eventually?

Well I have one, one I realised was a God given one only recently, and I also know that it is going to take me some time to actually get to a point where I can live out this dream, due to financial implications and time constraints, etc.

But the problem is, I know this dream will only get to be realised in about 5 years’ time, so what do I do to keep this dream alive, since satan’s best weapon is to steal our dreams, which in turn will break our hope, and he in turn hopes that it will make us doubt in our Father and His promises.

Since my dream is HUGE, in the sense of time and money, and I KNOW that I will not be able to do it for a while still, so I need to do small things in the meantime to keep this dream going and growing.

My dream is to travel Africa with a Land Cruiser, and to minister to the orphans and widows. God also told me that this ministry will not be funded by a church, and the funds will mainly come from myself and some sponsors along the way.

Now, the implications is that I can get caught up in making the money through me and my fathers’ business, and forget about this dream, which is exactly what satan wants, but I have some contingency plans in place for this.

One, is to go on small outreach trips, with different groups, when and where the chances appear to do this.

The other plan is to have a group of brothers and sisters, keep me aligned with this dream, and have them pray for me about this on a regular basis, and be accountable to them in order to put the things needed in place to make this dream happen.

So, what is your dream, and what are you doing to keep this dream alive?
