Giving Life to Your Dreams

1. Put Your Expectation in God

When a woman is pregnant, we say she’s “expecting.” In the same way, if we want to reach full-term and not give up or abort the dream God put in us, we must maintain expectation that it will come to pass.

We have to be determined to keep our focus, be aggressive and talk to God about it, preferably every day. If we don’t, then our enemy, the devil, is more likely to kill, steal and destroy the plans God has for us (see John 10:10).

It’s easy to fall into a passive attitude that says, “Well, we’ll just see what happens…” But we must resist becoming a “wait and see” kind of person. Instead, we need to be focused on God and determined to expect from Him, like David did.

In Psalm 27:13 (AMP), he said, I would have despaired had I not believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.

 Waiting on God is not a static, passive place where you’re doing nothing. It’s a time in your life when you aren’t taking matters into your own hands, trying to do what only God can do. You are waiting physically, but you are active spiritually, seeking His face and putting your trust in Him.
