Now Joseph Had A Dream

Ever had a dream and wondered if it would come true? Then this little devotional is for you.

There is hope. There is a hope that God cannot and will not lie. Hold on a little bit longer. And dig a litte bit deeper. God is in the business of dream answering and when He does, it is going to be huge!

God Bless.

“Now Joseph had a dream, and he told it to his brothers; and they hated him even more.” Genesis 37:5 “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.” Jeremiah 29:11

Years ago, while attending a women’s conference at a large stadium, I heard the voice of the LORD whisper in my ear, “Why not you? Why can’t this be you, My daughter?” He said, “I will expand your reach to many across the world and I will use you in even greater ways to teach and preach My Word.” I breathed in that moment. Unbeknownst to me, I was going to need that memory for the weeks, months and years ahead. The Bible says how Joseph had a dream and his brothers hated him even more. Shortly after that experience, I went through the darkest depression I’d ever faced and had tried to end my life. The vision I received from God at that conference seemed lost. I felt like it was over for me. But to God, it’s never over until He says so. Instead of feeling sorry for myself, I got up, rolled up my sleeves, and I fought with everything in me to renew my mind, rediscover who I am, and reclaim my destiny in God. It wasn’t easy, but God’s Holy Spirit helped me every step of the way, and years later, the LORD gave me a dream of a stadium and has said He is expanding my reach to minister the gospel to many across the world. Maybe your actions or the actions of others have caused you great pain and disappointment in your life, but it doesn’t have to be the end of your story. The Word of God says, you are saved and called with a holy calling, not according to your works (or lack of works) but according to

His own purpose and grace which He gave you in Christ Jesus before the world began (see 2 Timothy 1:9)! You are victorious through Jesus no matter how you feel and no matter how it looks!

Determine not to feel sorry for yourself! Get up, my sister, and roll up your sleeves! Fight with everything in you to: 1) Renew your mind with God’s Word (see Romans 12:1-2) 2) Rediscover who you are in Christ (see Luke 15:16-18; 1 Corinthians 15:10) 3) Reclaim your destiny (see Genesis 32:22-32; Acts 20:24; Philippians 3:14) It’s not over until you accomplish everything God purposed you to do in the earth by His grace and power. It’s not over until His dream for your life come to pass! The one who calls you is faithful, and He will do it! (see 1 Thessalonians 5:24)
