When God called Abraham from his country, He gave him a dream. The same dream became Abraham's motivation to move from where he was born to a new place he did not know.
A dream will make you move places. A dream will give you an extra motivation to wake up in the morning. A dream will be similar to a compass that will direct your life towards the North Star.
When God called Abraham, Moses, Joseph,David and many others, He did not just call them plainly. He called them and gave them a dream in the same time. To some He gave the dreams of freedom (Moses), dreams of Kinghood (David), dreams of Greatness (Abraham), dreams of Glory (Joseph). Those dreams were the extra motivation that kept them going when life was tough,impossible to bear. Those dreams were the hope they hung on to when times were dark. Those dreams were the lights inside their souls when the world and circumstances shut the doors.
However, there is a sad truth about dreams: 'Everybody has a dream, but not everybody realizes his/her dream.'
A dream that has no energy behind it, is just a mere wish. It is easy to wish, most people wish for something but they don't invest any energy to make their wishes come true. Days turn into months, months turn into years and their lives remain the same. Abraham had to travel to another land to achieve the dream God had given him. If he had chosen to stay in his native land, he would have never realized his dream. A wish has no power, until we invest energy into it.
A dream that has energy invested behind it, becomes a goal. A goal is the total opposite of a mere wish. A dream becomes a goal when the dreamer takes steps to realize his/her dreams. In my entire life I have stepped into my dreams by following these steps:
1. Writing down visions and dreams:
The book of the prophet Habakuk 2:2 says :' The Lord replied : 'Write down the visions,inscribe them on tablets, so that a runner can carry the correct message to others.'
Writting down a dream increases the correctness of what you saw in your vision. It gives a clear picture of what your dream is. Write down your vision on paper.
2. Starting with what you have right now!
Stop focusing on what you don't have! People spend a lot of energy on analyzing the things they don't have to start their dreams. They focus on the money they don't have, the connections they don't have, the lover they don't have...' Stop it!
From the moment God gives you a dream, He automatically provides resources to start your dream. The problem is that most people view 'money' as the primary and only resource to start everything. As a result they overlook all the other available resources to start their dreams. There are resources other than money which can get you started . Make sure your eyes are open to see them.
