TODAY’S WORD from Joel and Victoria
|
The scripture tells us that
without vision, people perish. If you don’t have a dream or vision for your
life, then you’re not really going to reach your fullest potential. Maybe at
one time you had a dream, but you went through some disappointments or setbacks.
Things didn’t turn out the way you planned. But here’s a key: when one dream
dies, dream another dream. Just because it didn’t work out the way you had it
planned doesn’t mean that God doesn’t have another plan. You cannot allow one
disappointment or even a series of disappointments to convince you that your
dream is over. It’s time to dig your heals in and hold on to the promises in
your heart. Stir up those God-given dreams today and watch Him pour out His
favor and blessing upon you and fulfill every desire in your heart!

Fill me with Your hope and expectation and give me the dreams and desires

The bible says : Ecclesiastes 3:1-22 - For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to pl...
