Dear Friend, We are to have a positive outlook on our life and future no matter what our circumstances may look like right now and receive the revelation that God has great things ahead of us waiting to be attained. The Bible declares in Jeremiah 33:3 "Call unto Me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not." The Lord is ready to lead and direct our lives onto the best path, but we must be willing to call upon Him, follow His direction and have the attitude that goodness and mercy follows us all the days of our lives. God has instilled greatness within our being that is meant to come forth, so be encouraged to renew your mind with the word of God and see yourself achieving the greatness that is within you. (1 Thessalonians 5:18) (Psalm 31:1-5) (Psalm 18:30-33) (Psalm 23:6) I hope you are inspired by today's message. MAKING DREAMS COME TRUE As a child picking grapes, I say that although we worked hard, we never really got anywhere. Finishing one crop meant starting another. We were so busy working hard, bent and stooped over, it never occurred to us to stand up straight and look around for better opportunities. By settling for the first job we found, we eliminated any chance for better ones. Had we used our minds more and our backs less, we would have had many more opportunities available to us. Qu� l�stima! (What a pity.) I was fortunate. I used my hot years under the grapevines to dream and picture. My self-conversations went like this: "I hate the heat and this dirty work. When I get older I'm going to work in an air-conditioned office and live in a big, cool house. I'm going to go to school and study so I won't have to work in the fields all my life. I'm going to marry a kind, generous man. He'll be an elegant dresser and have a briefcase." Would you believe I married exactly such a man, who later became an attorney and turned out to be a clotheshorse? We get what we picture. Throughout my life, the many pictures I have held steady in my mind have materialized. They can and will for you, too. By Bettina R. Flores As children of the Lord, we should always keep in mind that we are called to be a victorious people. The Lord has instilled great dreams and aspirations within each of our hearts, but it is up to us whether those dreams are realized. The Bible declares in Proverbs 23:7 "For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he..." This scripture does not specify success or failure, but it tells us that whatever we think in our hearts, that is true. (1 Peter 2:9-10) (Isaiah 43:18-19) (Deuteronomy 30:19) We must make up our minds and see our dreams being realized. We cannot have a vision of defeat in our minds and think our dreams will come to pass. God says in Genesis 11:6 "And now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do." Encourage yourself in the Lord and imagine your dreams coming true. Believe the Lord's Word and see yourself prospering and successful in every area of life. (Romans 12:3-8) Continue to dream your dreams and get it in your mind that with God all things are possible to those who believe. Believe in yourself and trust that God is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that you can ask or even think. (Ezekiel 37:3-14) (Hebrews 12:1-3) (Ephesians 3:20-21) Read and meditate on these scriptures: Romans 8:31-32 "What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? He that spared not His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?" Jeremiah 29:11-13 "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. Then shall ye call upon Me, and ye shall go and pray unto Me, and I will hearken unto you. And ye shall seek Me, and find Me, when ye shall search for Me with all your heart." Philippians 3:13-14 "Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus." All of these scriptures can be found in the King James Version Bible.
