Are You Being Robbed of Your Dreams?

Behold, I am against them that prophesy false dreams… (Jeremiah 23:32)

My friend, did you know that it always saddens me when I look at television and newspaper accounts of families whose homes are burglarized and precious items stolen? Sometimes it takes these victims years of hard work to replace their losses. Tragically, it happens every day. But there is something even worse: When a man is robbed of his dreams. Millions are robbed of daily miracles because of their defiant and stubborn rebellion to a God-given instruction.

Disobedience disappoints the heart of God. It ties His hands and it robs you of the fulfillment of your dreams. God cannot commit Himself to the success of a rebel. In fact, He warned Israel, "Moreover all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue thee, and overtake thee, til thou be destroyed; because thou hearkenedst not unto the voice of the Lord thy God to keep His commandments and His statutes which He commanded thee," (Deuteronomy 28:45). It is first-degree robbery to disobey God. Every rebel is ultimately penalized by the un-realization of their dreams.

Are you robbing yourself of your own dreams?

My friend, disobedience is a heartache to God. You must confront it. You must uproot it. You must ask His forgiveness. It can happen right now, even as you are reading these words. Discover that moment of total trust where you can rest all that burdens you on the shoulders of the Lord. This moment of complete surrender to Christ can be the beginning of the fulfillment of your dreams!

Stop robbing yourself of your dreams!

God does not promote you according to your age. He does not promote you according to your I. Q. Nor does He promote you according to your abilities. God promotes and rewards you according to your progressive acts of obedience.

Obedience is the key to fulfilling your dreams!
