Recover your dreams

Joshua 1: 6-9
6 Be strong and courageous, for you will give this people possession of the land that I swore to their fathers to give them. >7 Only be strong and very brave. Be careful [to] fulfill all the law that Moses my servant commanded you. Do not deviate ?>from it either to the right or to the left, so that you succeed wherever you go.
Dreaming is easy for us, but achieving them requires a lot of effort and courage. Strive to achieve everything you've dreamed of.
It is very common for certain factors to make us abandon and discard our dreams. Working to achieve them requires perseverance and dedication. I will share four tips that will help you achieve it.
1. FREE OF THE CAPTIVITY
Psalm 126: 1-2 says: When Jehovah returns the captivity of Zion, we will be like those who dream. Then our mouth will >be filled with laughter, And our tongue with praise; Then they will say among the nations: Great things the LORD has >done with these.
The Lord Jesus freed us from the bondage of sin so we can dream. In captivity it is difficult to have a vision of what you want to achieve. Even animals change their behavior when they are captive. Orcas in captivity are unable to keep their dorsal fin upright. It is a manifestation of his sadness and humiliation.
We are free in Christ Jesus as well as the dreams we have. If you are already free, prove it by dreaming and struggling to achieve your desires. Dreaming keeps us alert, excited, activates our faith in God, urges us to work and strive to achieve it. When you are a slave to some vice, illicit sex, bribery, fraud or corruption, dreams become nightmares. Satan wants to enslave you so you do not dream. He knows that if you can dream it is because you are free by the blood of Christ. When you free yourself from a harmful habit and you declare our Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior, the faith of being someone and being able to do great things renews you and makes you an enthusiastic person, full of projects. That just happened to me the day that I gave my life to the Lord Jesus.

Dreams are related to the mind and heart of each person. If you are greedy and selfish, you will hardly have a generous dream. But if you have good intentions and your dreams are related to the benefit of many people, they adhere to your heart and your mind, then you have more chances to reach them. If you dream of being a doctor and healing people, rest assured that everything will work for good. You will be more demanding and dream of a hospital for children with cancer. Good dreams expand and fructify. That is why it is very important that you take care of your heart and expand your mind. Take care of yourself and your weaknesses because that's how you take care of your dreams.
God makes something new every day, especially with those who have good dreams. He will do something great if your dream is great, but first you must be free. Your achievements will be as great as the dreams you dare to cultivate.
2.Prepare
Matthew 13:19 warns: When a man hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the wicked one comes >and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is the one that was sown next to the road.
Dreams work like a seed. The parable of the sower applies to all sowing, no matter what. It can be Word, affection, knowledge or attitudes. The second thing that threatens a dream and that prevents it from fruiting is the lack of knowledge. If you want to help sick people, then you should study medicine, besides praying to God and asking for the gift of healing from the Holy Spirit. If you want to be a professional player in the European football league, you must take care of your body, study at the sports academy, train and learn. It is noticeable when people prepare to achieve their dreams, as it is also very evident when someone wants to achieve something, but they do not know what they are doing or how to achieve it.

A dream is hampered by ignorance. It is true that we can not be omniscient and know everything, so with humility, look for those who can help you and complement your knowledge. Attracting the ideal people to your work team is also a very smart decision that you must take to achieve everything you set your mind to. Do not forget, to achieve your dreams learn, study and prepare.
3. Do not get carried away by your emotions
Matthew 13: 20-21 tells us: And he who was sown on stony places, this is he who hears the word, and at once receives it >with joy; but it has no root in itself, but is of short duration, for when affliction or persecution comes because of the >word, then it stumbles.
The dream can last very little if we let ourselves be carried away by our emotions. They are enemies of the Word of God, because you receive it with joy, but when the affliction comes you are discouraged. Many dreams run the same risk of dying because of emotions. Particularly, I fear highly emotional people because they are inconstant and it is not known how they will react. Successful athletes are those who dominate their emotions. There are people who enroll in the university very enthusiastic. If they want to be lawyers, they buy a briefcase, a suit and a tie, but they give up the first assignment assigned to them. When the affliction and effort come, they realize that they were not born for that profession and they look for another one.
It is ironic but joy or emotion does nothing for a dream, affliction itself, because it manages to suffocate it quickly. The people free from bondage reach their dreams, who prepare themselves and do not let themselves be dominated by their emotions. On certain occasions I have wanted to give up studying, the pressure and work are intense. We are not steel, of course there are moments of weakness that drive us to want to leave everything, but the impulses should not dominate us. Only the Lord can help us overcome. If you want to see your dream come true, conviction must always be greater than emotion and feeling. It is said of Jesus that because of the joy set before him, he suffered the reproach and that he will see the fruit of the affliction of his soul and will be satisfied. Imagine that he had not endured the affliction, his dream of saving us would not have been fulfilled. Let's give thanks because he endured everything and without being guilty.
Remember that more than someone depends on your dreams. Maybe nobody will tell you and you will never be recognized, but life and God will know how to reward you for enduring the affliction represented by fighting for longings. Never stop dreaming, no matter how much it hurts or the sacrifices you have to make, keep going God will reward you.
4. The best things in life are not acquired with money
Matthew 13:22 tells us: He who was sown among thorns is he who hears the word, but the zeal of this world and the >deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.
The dream or the vision we want to reach is drowned when we allow ourselves to be seduced by deceit and wealth. Your dreams can bring wealth, if money is the product of your effort, there is nothing wrong with it. The trick is to think that wealth will give you something that is priceless. You can buy a gift but not a smile, you can buy medicine but not life, you can feed a family but not buy a thank you. You can make a nice house and still lose a home. You can also buy a new car for your child but not achieve good behavior. Money does not buy happiness.
Many want to do good and also want to prosper, that's good, but we should not get carried away by the deception of wealth. The eagerness of life should not drown us.
I hope this article has been a blessing for your life, God bless you all
