BIG DREAMS, BIG GOD BIG OPPORTUNITIES

God can do anything, you know—far more than you could ever imagine or guess or request in your

wildest dreams! (Ephesians 3:20 – The

Message)

No eye has seen, no ear has heard and no one’s heart

has ever dreamed of all the things

that God has prepared for those who love him.

(1 Corinthians 2:9 – Complete Jerusalem Bible)

I came so they can have real and eternal life, more and better life than they ever dreamed of. (John 10:10 –

The Message)

Everything starts with a dream that grabs

your heart!

Faith is choosing and believing God’s dream for your life. Nothing starts

happening in your life until you

start dreaming.

God gave you the ability to dream, to create, to

imagine. Dreaming is an act of faith. Everything you see on this planet started

as a dream.

Great things come from small beginnings when God is in them. But you’ve got to start with a dream. The minute you stop dreaming,

you start dying.

What is faith? It is the confident assurance that

something we want is going to happen. It is the certainty

that what we hope for is waiting for us,

even though we cannot see it up ahead.

(Hebrews 11:1 – Living Bible)

BIG DREAMS BIG GOD

THREE QUESTIONS

Now glory be to God, who by his mighty power at work within us is able to do far more than we would ever

dare to ask or even dream of—

infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires,

thoughts, or hopes. (Ephesians 3:20 – Living

Bible)

Expect great things from God, attempt

great things for God

QUESTION 1:

What’s your biggest dream for your life

or our church?

(God can do far more than you would dare to ask

or even dream of!)

QUESTION 2:

Is your dream “man - sized” or “God - sized”

( . . . more than we would ever dare to ask or even

dream of —infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts,

or hopes.)

QUESTION 3:

Does your dream bring honor & glory to God?

(Now glory be to God . . . May he be given glory

forever and ever through endless ages!)

HOW DOES GOD’S DREAM BECOME

YOUR DREAM?

First, you must dare to ask God for it!

We live in the bold confidence that God hears our voices when we ask for

things that fit His plan. And if we have no doubt that He

hears our voices,

we can be assured that He moves in response to our

call. (1 John 5:14-15 – The Voice)

If you want God’s blessing on your life this year, you

must dare to ask for it. You must say, “God, what’s your

dream for my life?

What do you want me to do?” Then you ask yourself, “What would I attempt for

God if I knew I couldn’t fail?”

Let that expand your vision.

Second, you must trust God and His promises!

I am the LORD, the God of all the peoples of the world. Is anything too hard for me?

(Jeremiah 32:27 – New Living Translation)

The things that are impossible for people to do

are possible for God to do.

(Luke 18:27 – God’s Word Translation)

Never let an impossible situation intimidate you. Let it

motivate you to pray more, believe more,

trust more, experience more, learn more, and grow more.

Faith always works in the realm

of the impossible. Hudson Taylor said there are three stages to God’s will in your

life: impossible, possible, and done.

Third, you must dream BIG.

Ask me, and I will make the nations your inheritance,

the ends of the earth your possession.

(Psalm 2:8 – New International Version)

The size of your God should determine the size of your

goal.

You haven’t really believed God until you’ve attempted

something that can’t be done in the power of the

flesh.

If you want to know how big your dream should be, ask

yourself two questions:

How much time do you have to give to it? If it’s a dream

you can give the rest of your life to, then you can really

dream big.
