Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They don't toil, neither do they spin, yet I tell you that even Solomon in all his glory was not dressed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today exists, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, won't he much more clot... -
The disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit. Acts 13:52 WEBWhile at the beach one day, I watched some kids playing with a beach ball. They would hit the ball and it would soar into the air, but then gradually float back down to the earth. Without some form of lift, the ball will alwa...

Dare To Dream

When they had crossed, Elijah said to Elisha, Ask what I shall do for you, before I am taken from you. And Elisha said, Please let there be a double portion of your spirit on me. 2 Kings 2:9 ESV
Walking together down the road, Elisha was just a servant. The mighty prophet Elijah was renowned for calling fire down from heaven multiple times. He caused a draught on the land, and then caused it to rain. He resurrected people from the dead, fed people for years from a small jar, and much more. He was a force to be reckoned with.
Elisha could only dream of being used by God like that. Still he asked for a double portion anointing, and the Lord gave it to him. Elijah did fourteen miracles, Elisha did twenty-eight, exactly twice as many.
Do not be afraid to dream big. God can easily surpass your wildest dreams and go beyond your imagination, if you will go with Him. Of course, keep God centered and be a good servant / steward along the way just as Elisha did. Dare to follow your dream. It just may be that the Lord placed that within you for such a time as this.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, give me a fresh vision and renew the dream that you gave me. I want all that You have for me Lord, in the name of Jesus.

I really needed this today! Thank you!

Amen Pastor Dion. I believe the dream we have for ourselves is God woven into our very being. It is part of His plan. If we trust Him we will see this dream become reality, all in His perfect timing. We should not be silent about reminding Him or inquiring an answer from Him about this dream, for it shows Him that we trust Him to bring it to reality.
Thank you, Pastor Dion, for this timely encouragement!
