June 3, 2018 The Dream Series: What Is A Dream? Step 1: Desire Rev. Dr. Derrick B. Wells

What is a Dream?

1. A dream is a work assignment offered by God
2. A dream means a deep desire to door be
3. It means to acquire something of tremendous importance

Step 1: Desire  Name your desire; this is the urge within us indicating that God seeks to express Itself through us

1. Desire is the dream in embryo state
2. Desire is God tapping into my soul seeking expression
3. Desire must be impressed upon the subconscious mind before it can be accomplished
4. I cannot desire anything that I am not capable of attaining

Dreams come true when I know what to do

What is my motivation?

Attainment of my dreams won’t be easy. It will require work and the best of me

My dreams are my goals – work them and step away from the naysayers

My work assignment is possible

I am investing in reshaping my life

Can I see my possibilities? I have the power to transform me

Write out my vision (only to myself) BE CLEAR

Hinders to my dream

1. There is not enough
2. I’m not enough

I must prune negativity from my life

Overcome and let go that I’m unworthy. I am all and have all that God is

With God before me there is a new possibility; it’s not over until I take hold of the desires from God and move out on them

Luke 12:32 (NRSV) Do not be afraid, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom

John 15:1-8 (KJV) (Use to stay on point!)

1. I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman
2. Every branch in me that beareth not fruit He taketh away; and every branch that beareth fruit, He purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit
3. Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you
4. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me
5. I am the vine, ye are the branches. He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit; for without me ye can do nothing
6. If a man abideth not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned
7. If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you
8. Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples
