*WHEN REALITIES CONTRADICTS THE DREAMS*


*By Pastor E O Gabriel  20 May 2024*


SCRIPTURE: And we know that all things work together for Good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His Purpose - *‭‭Romans‬ ‭8:28‬ ‭KJV‬‬*


*It is highly exciting to receive Dreams or Prophecies of Greatness but very discouraging when such Dreams or Prophecies are followed by contrary events.*


Joseph had Dreams of Greatness, and because of this, hell was let loose on him. 


Shortly after his Dream, he suffered the loss of his coat of many colours. 


Thereafter, he was also thrown in a well that had no water. 


Help came his way, and he came out of the well but was then sold into Slavery. 


He found himself in Potiphar's house, but the devil struck again, and he found himself in Prison.


*The Prison experience gave birth to the fulfilment of his Dreams.*


*Key Points To Note:*


*(1)* The devil can see a little into the Future.


• Why did the devil come to tempt Jesus thrice after 40 Days of Fasting? He knew His Light was about to break out. He knew Jesus was to step into His Purpose - *Matthew 4:1-11*


*(2)* There is no Royal road to Greatness. No Great feat will come with ease - *Matthew 11:12*


*(3)* The bigger the Dream or Prophecy, the hotter the attack.


*(4)* Whatever attack that can't take your Life can't kill your Dream.


*(5)* Whatever contrary event that came your way is for your Good - *Romans 8:28*


*What are we to do to experience the realities  of Dreams or Prophecies?*


*(1)* Look unto Jesus - *Hebrews 12:2*


*(2)* Keep the Dreams alive.


*(3)* Avoid Negative Sentiments such as weeping, regrets, anger, hatred, bitterness, murmuring, etc.


*(4)* Avoid the wrong Company - *Proverbs 13:20*


*(5)* Keep developing your Potentials.


*(6)* Be a Blessing.


Do good in spite of Challenges. 


*(7)* Expect the fulfilment of your Dreams or Prophecies 


*Prayer:*

Father, in Jesus' Name, when realities are contrary to my Dreams, empower me not to give up in Jesus Christ Name.

EVOLVE OR DISSOLVE 2 AND DO YOU HAVE A TEMPLATE?

  *EVOLVE OR DISSOLVE 2 AND DO YOU HAVE A TEMPLATE*?                                     Another reason many have dissolved or gone extinct is that the visionary is unwilling to stretch.   They are not flexible or willing to change their ways; they prefer to stay the same. They don't want to be bothered with having to learn new things, meet new people, do it differently, or add a new twist to it.   It may even entail spending more money, and you may even risk losing money, clients, or staff.   Stretching entails a great deal; it challenges your brain, alters your thinking, is demanding, and entails a new level of commitment and responsibilities.   They are afraid of confronting new challenges because it is like starting over.Maybe you should be told that the world is no longer in its primitive state; it has grown beyond where it was when you arrived.    As it grows, things wear out and new things emerge because those who came before you accepted the challenge. They took

He Positioned himself where Jesus was Passing and was made Whole - *Mark. 10:46-52* Zacchaeus would have died a sinner but for his Positioning. He Positioned himself where he would see Jesus, he climbed a Sycamore tree. Jesus entered into hi

 SEED OF TRANSFORMATION DAILY DEVOTIONAL                                                *THE SEA IS NOT FULL* *By Pastor E O Gabriel  18 March 2024* SCRIPTURE: All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full; unto the Place from whence the rivers come, thither they return again - *Ecclesiastes 1:7* *The sea is never full because from whence the rivers come, there they return again.* *The water Cycle otherwise known as the Hydrologic Cycle involves the continuous flow of water from the Earth to the Atmosphere. It is a never Ending Cycle.* The Bible says, cast thy bread upon the waters, for after many days thou shall find it again - *Ecclesiastes 11:1* *Many Inferences to draw:* *(1)* Living is Seeding. Whatever a man does is a Seed that grows and comes back to him - *Galatians 6:7* *(2)* The Wicked shall not be Unpunished - *Proverbs 11:21* *(3)* He that labours, labours for himself.  Every Good you do, you do for yourself because God the Rewarder will reward you according as y
