How to live God's Dream

Dream Busters

 

  1. Family - Genesis 37:5

Now Joseph had a dream, and when he told it to his brothers they only hated him the more.

 

  1. Friends - Psalm 1:1-3

Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers;   but his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night.   He is like a tree planted by streams of water, that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers.

 

  1. Fatigue - 1 Kings 19:3-5

Then he was afraid, and he arose and went for his life, and came to Beer-sheba, which belongs to Judah, and left his servant there.  But he himself went a day's journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a broom tree; and he asked that he might die, saying, "It is enough; now, O LORD, take away my life; for I am no better than my fathers."  And he lay down and slept under a broom tree; and behold, an angel touched him, and said to him, "Arise and eat."

 

  1. Failure - Joshua 7:3-5

And they returned to Joshua, and said to him, "Let not all the people go up, but let about two or three thousand men go up and attack Ai; do not make the whole people toil up there, for they are but few."  So about three thousand went up there from the people; and they fled before the men of Ai, and the men of Ai killed about thirty-six men of them, and chased them before the gate as far as Sheb'arim, and slew them at the descent. And the hearts of the people melted, and became as water.

 

  1. Fear - Numbers 13:27-28

And they told him, "We came to the land to which you sent us; it flows with milk and honey, and this is its fruit.   Yet the people who dwell in the land are strong, and the cities are fortified and very large; and besides, we saw the descendants of Anak there.
