Nothing happens unless first we dream.- Dreams are the touchstones of our character.You have to PUSH through travailing prayer.
In life, many thoughts are born in the course of a moment, an hour, a day. Some are dreams, some visions. Often, we are unable to distinguish between them. To some, they are the same; however, not all dreams are visions. Much energy is lost in fanciful dreams that never bear fruit. But visions are messages from the Great Spirit, each for a different purpose in life. Consequently, one person's vision may not be that of another. ( Habakkuk 2:2) And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.
To have a vision, one must be prepared to receive it, and when it comes, to accept it. Thus when these inner urges become reality, only then can visions be fulfilled. The spiritual side of life knows everyone's heart and who to trust. How could a vision ever be given to someone to harbor if that person could not be trusted to carry it out. The message is simple: commitment precedes vision.
I have had dreams and I have had nightmares, but I have conquered my nightmares because of my dreams.... without darkness Nothing comes to birth, As without light Nothing flowers.
PUSHING TO BREAKTHROUGH.
And they said unto him, Thus saith Hezekiah, This day is a day of trouble, and of rebuke, and of blasphemy: for the children are come to the birth, and there is not strength to bring forth. (Isaiah 37:3)
When pregnant woman are told by their doctor you are in nine centimeters dilated and in a few minutes, it would be time to push. I waited for about fifteen minutes and I got the urge to push. Three ten-second pushes and there was little baby( Dream and Vision ) is birthed.Our push is travailing in prayer the less you push the more risky the baby is,so be on the safe side of prayer.
We are not born all at once, but by bits. The body first, and the spirit later; and the birth and growth of the spirit, in those who are attentive to their own inner life, are slow and exceedingly painful. Our mothers are racked with the pains of our physical birth; we ourselves suffer the longer pains of our spiritual growth.
"Hezekiah says, 'This is a black day. We're in crisis. We're like pregnant women without even the strength to have a baby!I encourage you to stand strong and be courageous for your dreams and visions shall birth-forth. Take care, your worship, those things over there are not giants but windmills.
HEZEKIAH: PRAYERS TO GOD OF HEAVEN.
Then Hezekiah prayed to God: "God-of-the-Angel-Armies, enthroned over the cherubim-angels, you are God, the only God there is, God of all kingdoms on earth. You made heaven and earth. Listen, O God, and hear. Look, O God, and see. Mark all these words of Sennacherib that he sent to mock the living God. It's quite true, O God, that the kings of Assyria have devastated all the nations and their lands. They've thrown their gods into the trash and burned them—no great achievement since they were no-gods anyway, gods made in workshops, carved from wood and chiseled from rock. An end to the no-gods! But now step in, O God, our God. Save us from him. Let all the kingdoms of earth know that you and you alone are God."
GOD'S ANSWER TO KING HEZEKIAH.
Finally, this is God's verdict on the king of Assyria:
"'Don't worry, he won't enter this city,won't let loose a single arrow, Won't brandish so much as one shield, let alone build a siege ramp against it. He'll go back the same way he came.He won't set a foot in this city.God's Decree. I've got my hand on this city to save it, Save it for my very own sake,but also for the sake of my David dynasty.'"
When we are dreaming alone it is only a dream. When we are dreaming with others, it is the beginning of reality.
