If I could do anything on this earth I wanted to do what would it be
if money were no object what would I do with my life
if I could ignore the critics and the doubters what would I do
if you weren't worried about what people said about you what would you do
what's in your heart what's in your heart what would you tell me when you're
not occupied at work and your mind's not with something what are you thinking about
you you lay in the bed at night and you think about it how much time do you spend dreaming
how much time do you just sit around and just think about man what if what if how much time you
spend doing that how much time do you just spend dreaming who do you want to be what kind of person
you want to be dream it when you stop dreaming you just exist you just go through the motions
we were not created to go through the motions we were created to dream your heart comes alive when
it dreams and it dies when you stop dreaming why do people stop why do people quit dreaming
kids are young they dream don't they ask a boy what you want to be I want to be a cowboy
I want be a fireman kids just they just want to do this stuff you know what that's called it's
called dreaming all right they get a little older they get in school and uh I love to listen to them
when they get out of high school they're going you know they've got these dreams they're gonna have
families we're gonna are they fired up about their careers it's called dreaming it's when you've got
something in your heart you want to do and you're looking forward to it it's called dreaming dreams
motivate us they give us energy for life they inspire us they excite us what's your dream
what's your vision it doesn't have to be changing technology in the world but it could be for a
better marriage it could be for a healthier lifestyle it could be for a business you own
yourself it could be the dream to be self-employed it could be a dream to get a college education and
you can do that after you're 80 you can do that no matter how old you are or where you are what's the
dream what's the challenge to for fight through the difficulties of the day that's driving you
let me tell you how he works in your life he plants dreams and desires in people's hearts you
don't hear him with this ear right here you hear him right here you ever heard this he speaks to
your heart well you don't hear words in your heart dreams come in your heart and you get to dreaming
about this stuff and then he goes to work to bring them to pass your dreams come to pass that's the
sweetest thing in all the world to the heart well who put this in here all right learn something
about your heart here your heart lives on dreams and and when your heart stops dreaming you die
listen to this one where there is no vision the people perish when you lose your vision and you
stop dreaming and you stop looking forward out there you're not excited about the future anymore
you die now you can still eat bread and chicken and walk around and go to work but you're just
a zombie living and people are losing their dreams they're losing hope that's why the heart is sick
among people today what the scripture say lift up your eyes lift up your head start dreaming again
and the problem with most of us who are watching this message right now
is that we have become so practical that we have lost the tool that God has given us
to be able to create a different situation from what we're currently experiencing because
somebody told us that was for kids today I'm trying to stir your anointed imagination
to see again to dream again to hear again to write again to be able to do
there will always be times your life seems to be inconsistent with the dream God showed you so you
have a choice you can either reduce your heart to current circumstances or believe your life
will eventually catch up with your dream see never allow circumstances to change what God told you or
what God put in your heart time doesn't matter see every dream faces the frustration of delay
and it's way better to experience the frustration of delay than to be willing to take the option of
a detour so Habakkuk says though the vision tarry wait for it it will surely come to pass
delay is not denial don't give up just because it's taken a long time
I made a decision a long time ago that believing was my job
but the outcome is his and too many people won't believe unless they know the outcome
that's not faith is anything too hard for the Lord you tell me what he can't do here's how
you know it's his dream if you can do it it ain't his it's got to be bigger than what you could do
I mean it's got to be big and listen if it's going to be big go ahead and go real big
people say well the the way our nation is right now our nation the way it is right is crushing
dreams who is your God quit letting this nation tell you how to live quit letting the news tell
you how to live let the bible fetch your dreams for you and dreams require persistence we quit too
easy we give up too early I hear people say I'm too old I'm too young but no matter who you are
no matter where you are you can dream you'll make mistakes and you'll give up don't let satan steal
your dreams through your mistakes or through your failures friends will steal your dreams how
many well-meaning people have I had to tell me now that's a little too big right there
in other words I'm telling you satan will get in people's mouths and try to crush your dreams
and you know what you need to do just keep right on sailing do not let the dream stealer destroy
your dreams you're too old you're too slow you're not smart enough you don't have what it takes
you need to learn stuff listen learn stuff like this if God be for me who can be against me
if you're gonna dream your way to the top out of where you are if you study the lives of great
achievers you'll always discover that dreams were a part of what drove their life it fueled them the
dream drives how they act how they think how they talk and how they respond great achievers always
have a dream that drives them they don't want to stay where they are they want things to be better
they want things to be different now at the moment it may just suck but not in their head in their
head they're thinking it will not always be like this it may be bad for the moment but it won't
be bad forever I'm going to make the choices I'm going to I'm going to take every opportunity to
change these circumstances and over time you can do something every day that can change tomorrow
just something tomorrow's not a day of the week anyway right if you want to change tomorrow it
starts with decisions you make today and you can't wait until tomorrow to change tomorrow
you you change tomorrow by changing today small decisions made every day lead to a big future
today's discipline determines tomorrow's success if you do what you have to do when you have to do
it one day you'll get to do what you want to do when you want to do it listen to me
you only live one life you get one life what you gonna do with it find his plan for your life
all right you're not too old it's not too late forgetting those things which are behind let's
reach forward to the things that are out there and while you're at it if you're gonna go go big
