God has spoken to every one of us at some time in our life. He’s given us dreams, visions, and things to accomplish for Him. I want to inspire you to get a new hold on those dreams. Pull them down from the shelf, dust them off, and get moving!

“But I just don’t see how it’s possible,” you may say. “I know God has spoken to me, but I can’t do anything.”

Remember Joseph? He dreamed that his brothers would bow to him. Upset about his dream and jealous of his relationship with their father, Joseph’s brothers threw him into an empty pit. Then they sold him to a passing caravan bound for Egypt. (See Genesis chapter 37.) I’m sure Joseph thought, “God, what is happening? This is not the way I dreamed it!” He found himself working in Egypt as a servant and then being thrown into prison. He could have said, “Wait a minute, Lord. You’re making a mistake!” Even though it seemed as though his dream was shattered, Joseph kept believing God. And years later, his dream came to pass just as God had given it. His brothers bowed before him. (See Gen. 42:1–6.)
