[Devotional] IN HIS PRESENCE: Becoming aware of your dream (1)

READ: JOEL 2:28-32

MEDITATION VERSE

“And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions” (Joel 2:28).

The best dream to live is the dream that God has for you. It is the assignment you were created to accomplish on earth. You can become aware of your dream in several ways, and we will be looking at the different ways in the next few days.

The first way is by “divine inspiration”. The bible says, “for it is God who works in you both to will and to do of His good pleasure” (Philippians 2:13). Divine inspiration is the inaudible voice of God speaking to our hearts through His Holy Spirit. My first encounter with my dream several years ago was divinely inspired. The inaudible voice of God was speaking to my heart. Over the years, God has continued to point me towards my assignment in more ways than one.

You would need to spend time in God’s presence consistently and pay close attention to that still small voice that speaks to and directs your heart. God is always speaking to us, His children, but we must be willing to ‘to wait on Him’ and listen. It may not happen otherwise. Scriptures can also confirm the dream that God has for you. As you study God’s word, pay close attention to the scriptures that light up inside your heart. They are pointers to your dream. Sometimes, a particular picture will keep popping up in your mind. Do not dismiss it. Endeavor to understand what it represents in your life.

You can also become aware of your dream is by hearing the audible voice of God as it occurred during the biblical times to the prophet Samuel “Then the Lord called Samuel. (1 Samuel 3:4). You can also become aware through visions and dreams. “And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out My spirit on all flesh, your sons and your daughters shall prophesy. Your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions” (Joel 2:28).
