TOPIC: SPIRITUAL EYES II MEMORISE :  Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law.  Psalm 119:18 READ :  2 Kings 6:15-23  15 And when the servant of the man of God was risen early, and gone forth, behold, an host compassed the city both with horses and chariots. And his servant said unto him, Alas, my master! how shall we do? 16 And he answered, Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them. 17 And Elisha prayed, and said, LORD, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the LORD opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha. 18 And when they came down to him, Elisha prayed unto the LORD, and said, Smite this people, I pray thee, with blindness. And he smote them with blindness according to the word of Elisha. 19 And Elisha said unto them, This is not the way, neither is this the city: follow me, and I will bring you to the man...

TOPIC: DREAMS AND FAITH

MEMORISE:
“We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak;” - (2 Corinthians 4:13)

READ: Hebrews 11:8-10

8 By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went.

9 By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:

10 For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.

MESSAGE:
Children of God can have great dreams and be confident they will come to pass because their heavenly father is the Alpha and Omega (Revelations 1:8). Children of God who put all their faith in Him can rest assured that God can bring their dreams - no matter how great h - to pass because He is the only one that can declare the end from the beginning (Isaiah 46:9-10).

No matter how great your dreams may be, God can bring them to pass if you have faith in Him. God himself said in Habakkuk 2:4 that the just shall live by faith.

(2 Thessalonians 1:3) tells us that faith can grow. Since your faith is a significant ingredient in the manifestation of your dreams, you must feed and grow it by listening to, studying, meditating and praying the word of God diligently.

In Mark 4:35-41, the Lord asked His disciples why they had no faith, but in Matthew 6:30, the Lord said to them, “O ye of little faith”, meaning that they now had faith, though little. Your faith can even grow further to become great faith (Matthew 15:21-28). Your future can actually be far better than your dreams; all you have to work on is your faith. Beloved, your faith must grow. When you hear me talking about my aspirations and dreams, I am only saying such great things because of how much faith I have in my God who is almighty.

Before I was born again - when I had no faith, my greatest ambition was to be a Vice- Chancellor-the youngest Vice-Chancellor in Africa. By the time I got to know Jesus and surrendered my life to Him, I began to understand that my natural mind could not even imagine how far He could take me. Now, I have learnt to dream big because I have a God who can do truly great and mighty things.

God rewards those who have faith in Him (Hebrews 11:6), so dream big and have faith in God that He will bring all your dreams to pass.

KEY POINT:
Grow your faith and dream bigger.
