Hebrews 11 is one of my favorite passages in the whole Bible. It's often called "The Hall of Faith" – Noah. Abraham. Joseph. Moses. They all had their own unique dream that God placed in their hearts. Long before they saw their dreams come to pass, they could see them.
Can you see your name listed with theirs? God can. The same God who placed dreams in each of these heroes of the Bible has placed a great dream inside of you. Whenever the dream inside you begins to show itself, there will be challenges, adversity and people telling you to give up. But the key is to KNOW that you KNOW that God will make good on His promise and keep believing in and obeying God even when everything and EVERYONE around you is telling you to quit.
No one else can accomplish the dream God gave you. God planted the dream in your heart. No one else can do it for you. Through faith and obedience to God's Word, you can accomplish it, but you've got to take action. Dreams only come true when the dreamer takes action. If you are unsure of the dream, ask God to give you wisdom and clarity. Maybe you're having a hard time holding on to it because of the pressures of life. Or maybe you've been waiting and this is your moment to step out and move forward in faith!
