Dream On!

Hebrews 4:12 Amp “For the Word that God speaks is alive and full of power [making it active, operative, energizing, and effective]; it is sharper than any two-edged sword, penetrating to the dividing line of the breath of life (soul) and [the immortal] spirit, and of joints and marrow [of the deepest parts of our nature], exposing and sifting and analyzing and judging the very thoughts and purposes of the heart.”

This morning as I was reading the Word, I saw the words on the page move as if they were alive. I checked my glasses, rubbed my eyes, looked back and they began to dance on the page. This verse popped into my head so I looked it up in the amplified. Wow! Seriously! I did not expect that this morning. Perhaps thats why so little happens in our lives…..we don’t expect.

Everything that lives, moves, thats just a fact of life. Why shouldn’t the Word of God also move since it’s alive. Until we see it as living, we won’t expect it to bring life when we agree with it and speak it. I’m getting very excited in my spirit here. As a child, I was always accused of having an overactive imagination, making things up, some of you know what I’m talking about. What if I wasn’t making it up? What if God had placed in me the ability to see things that weren’t here yet but no one recognized that so it wasn’t encouraged or developed.

How many of you had a dream? Was it something God placed in you and did the enemy try to steal, kill and destroy the dream? Shoot, I still dream. I still have visions of things that haven’t happened yet. Does it mean I’m making it up? I don’t believe so. God is always looking for people who will step outside the boundaries this world places on them, those who will believe for impossible things, those who aren’t afraid to speak the Word over situations and circumstances of life and death with bold expectation of the supernatural appearing. I still see my paralyzed friend leaping out of her wheelchair. Just because you don’t see it, doesn’t mean it hasn’t happened.

Time does not restrain God and we would do good to remember that. So the next time you read the Word, let it come alive to you. Let it dance the dance of the supernatural. Dream big! Dream long! Let the Spirit of the Lord work freely in you today. He’s watching for those he can trust with a dream bigger then their own. A dream that He laid out before the world was formed full of children who will believe and trust in His ability and not their own. Are you that dreamer?
