Topic: Dont Give Up On Your Dream

Text: "And Gideon came to Jordan, and passed over, he,
and the three hundred men that were with him,
faint, yet pursuing them" (Judges 8:4).

God gives everyone a dream for their future.
Some are short-term and others are lifelong
dreams. Many times the process to realizing
those dreams is challenging and takes far longer
than anticipated. Perhaps you have become
weary in pursuing your dreams. A good biblical
example of someone who was weary but kept
pursuing was Gideon and his 300-man army. The
Bible says his men were “faint, yet pursuing”
(Judg. 8:4).
If you are feeling weary, there are some
principles that may help. First, decide if your
dream is truly from God. If so, there will be
confirmations from others and circumstances will
begin to align leading up to it. If these factors
exist but there’s still a hold up, ask the Holy
Spirit to guide you to the reasons. Perhaps there
are some areas holding you back that need
adjustment. We all need to reassess our
direction sometimes. It could also be a timing
issue and nothing more. The key is that once you
know your dream is from God, keep pursuing it
with passion. Determined pursuit creates
success. Sure, you may feel faint sometimes, but
that’s often when you are the closest to
breakthrough, so never give up,  keep pursuing your dream
today!

PRAYER
Heavenly Father, I know that You have put a
dream in my heart regarding
________________. I will not give up on the things
You have given me
to do and to become. Give me strength, I pray,
and help me to keep pursuing
my dream! Amen.
