A NEW DREAM

Post date: Nov 6, 2012 5:37:40 AM

Since the day that Satan was sent out permanently from heaven, there had never been a sad time there, but whenever the joy in heaven is elevated to new height because of the activity of just one of us (God’s children) the earth will explode with a big celebration. The angels of God are waiting to announce and to celebrate your success and breakthrough; they are waiting to applaud your fulfillment and new life. This is because they know every thought and every word of God concerning you. They are messengers of God for our good and they guide us every day until we reach our destiny as determined by God for us in life.

Just like parents are very joyful in seeing their child develop positively in every activity from childhood to adulthood and achieve various successes in life, your God is proud when you develop better ideas and be successful, and will call a celebration in heaven where He will brag about your achievement. The devil attended one such celebration where God was hailing Job.

“And the Lord said to Satan, Have you considered My servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, one who [reverently] fears God and abstains from and shuns evil [because it is wrong]? Then Satan answered the Lord, Does Job [reverently] fear God for nothing? Have You not put a hedge about him and his house and all that he has, on every side? You have conferred prosperity and happiness upon him in the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land.” Job 1:8-10

Before job was invaded by the devil, God did brag about his success and way of life, when the devil attacked him, he felt left alone and forsaken, but God was still with him, preserving him for a future glory which later came, and God did enable him to see and enjoy that glory 120 years thereafter. Did you think you will die before seeing the glory of God in your life like job did? I will assure you that your patience, persistency and daily cry to God has reached heaven and just like Jacob saw the angels ascending and descending on a ladder in his hard times, you will also see God’s angels ministering to you for a new and joyful life. This was Jacob:    

“And he came to a certain place and stayed there overnight, because the sun was set. Taking one of the stones of the place, he put it under his head and lay down there to sleep. And he dreamed that there was a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven; and the angels of God were ascending and descending on it. And behold, the Lord stood over and beside him and said, I am the Lord, the God of Abraham your father [forefather] and the God of Isaac; I will give to you and to your descendants the land on which you are lying.” Genesis 28:11-13

Before Jacob had that dream, he was afraid of his life, tired of trouble, felt lonely and confused, not knowing what will befall him in the coming days or years and running for his dear life, but God, who had ordain something greater than fear and confusion for him, gave him a new dream, a dream of hope, confidence, assurance, peace and determination. That is what God is giving you as you prepare for the blessing in declaring what your lives will be like in 2013.

Like Jacob, God comforted him with a dream, like Job, God defended him and bless him thereafter in far better ways than before. That same God is going to do yours. Despite your failures in the past, you will have to dream something new. Despite the several disappointments and frustrations over the years, you are going to have a new dream about yourself from now on. Old things are passing away.  Despite the pains of lack of motivation and supports, God is giving you a new dream of joy like Jacob, a new dream like the children of Israel in captivity.     

“When the Lord turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream. Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The Lord hath done great things for them.” Psalm 126:1-2.
