Follow Your Dreams( by Fenny West)

Acrostic Word

Follow Your Dreams

Follow your dreams, your purpose, your assignment and vision regardless of opposition, obstacles, barriers or impediment.

Everything is possible, if only you can dream about it

Boldly

Realise that you have God’s DNA. As He is so you are in this world, go where angels dread

Understand that you have the divine nature and

Apply who you are in Christ always

Relentlessly pursue your godly goals and you will be amazed where it will take you

Paul, writing to the Philippians, wrote: “I press toward the goal, for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Phil. 3:14 and in 2Peter1:3, it is written: As His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness through the knowledge of Him who called us into glory and virtue. And in James 2:17 it is written: Thus also, faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.

So, my friend, follow your dreams. Have Big Dreams! And go big time for your dreams. Pursue your dreams passionately, relentlessly.

When David saw Goliath, he saw a prize to be obtained. What the king give to one who brings him down. He knew that he had a God with Whom all things were possible. And so, whilst others were quaking in their boots, David was energised, enthused and invigorated for what God would do through him. He kept recalling what God had done in times past and saw the battle as God’s.

David saw in Goliath, a dream for his greatness, promotion and upliftment. The way you see your opposition and obstacles matters a great deal. I counsel you to see them as stepping stones to a higher ground. See them as ladders to your greatness. See them as opportunities for God to display His power and promote you. See them like Caleb and Joshua saw the giants- as bred.

David was sure he would bring Goliath down because he knew the God he served. He told Goliath:

“You come to me with a sword, with a spear, and with a javelin. But I come to you in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. 46 This day the Lord will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you and take your head from you. And this day I will give the carcasses of the camp of the Philistines to the birds of the air and the wild beasts of the earth, that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel. 47 Then all this assembly shall know that the Lord does not save with sword and spear; for the battle is the Lord’s, and He will give you into our hands.”

48 So it was, when the Philistine arose and came and drew near to meet David, that David hurried and ran toward the army to meet the Philistine. 49 Then David put his hand in his bag and took out a stone; and he slung it and struck the Philistine in his forehead, so that the stone sank into his forehead, and he fell on his face to the earth. 50 So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and a stone, and struck the Philistine and killed him. But there was no sword in the hand of David. 51 Therefore David ran and stood over the Philistine, took his sword and drew it out of its sheath and killed him, and cut off his head with it.

Yes, regardless of how macho Goliath was, David knew that with God all things were possible and he focused on the power of His God. And guess what, he brought Goliath down,

Notice that it was Goliath who had a sword, but David spoke of cutting off his head, and so it was. So say what you want to see and not what you see. Speak in line with God’s mind for you. Say what God says about you and enter your promised land. No foe can stop you. You are unconquerable, formidable and indomitable in Christ.  Through our God we shall do valiantly. You are more than a conqueror. (Rom8:37) If God be for you who can be against you. Possess your possession (Obad1:17).

And so you under the sound of my voice or reading this, pursue your dreams, follow your purpose and God will back you.

His word says, “We are sufficient in His sufficiency.” (2Cor.3:6) His word says: “All things are possible to those who believe. (Matt19:26) His word says, “Stand and see the salvation of the Lord. (Ex.14:13 ) His word says, “ If God be for us who can be against us? (Rom8:31)

Follow your dreams my friend and God will back you and take you to your Promised Land.
