Psalm 139:
13 For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb.
14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.
15 My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,
16 your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. 17 How precious to me are your thoughts, O God!
[16 You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed.]
1 Peter 2:9 (New International Version)
9But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light. How vast is the sum of them!
Jeremiah 29:
11 For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
American Idol, America’s Got talent!, the American Inventor and so many other shows like these!
What do all of these shows have in common?
Today I want to talk about the simple truth about destiny! How many here have ever thought that you created to fulfill something great or significant in life!? Many of you probably have had dreams of doing great things!
People who have accomplished great things in life have always had a dream in there heart! People like Martin Luther king, Henry Ford, Bill Gates and or Joseph, and others like them!!
Other famous dreamers throughout history who used their dreams creatively:
Aristotle, philosopher
Schopenhauer, philosopher
Sigmund Freud, psychiatrist
Carl Jung, Psychologist
Joseph, Jacob, Daniel and Nebuchadnezzar from the Bible
Albert Einstein, inventor
Leonardo DeVinci, artist, composer, inventor
Joan of Arc, visionary
Billy Joel, musician, song writer
Paul McCartney, musician, song writer
Inspirational dreams of the famous have no doubt been responsible for shaping and molding our history, touching our hearts and minds. How different the world might be if the dreamers had not acted upon the messages given to them in their dreams.
One would ask whether these individuals were special or gifted to begin with. Perhaps they were given an extra portion of ingenuity or spiritual inspiration.
Perhaps the dream state provided them with direct access to vast reservoirs of creativity. But then maybe they were not just exceptional dreamers.
Perhaps they became special because of what they did with their dreams. Acknowledge these great minds from the past as sources of incredible power and thought but also realize that the greatest of creations have yet to be dreamed of or realized in our world today
They set out to accomplish their dream when the timing or the situation was right!
I believe the God has a plan for every one of us! NOT ONE PERSON IS LEFT OUT OF GOD’S PURPOSES!!! His purpose for the human race was an exclusive one but an inclusive!
Don’t be counted out as one of those people!!! You too can become a part of the great big plan of God!!!
What does it take to be one?!!
Well, the bible has something to say about that! First let’s consider a few verses!
You were wonderfully created by God!!
Psalm 139: 15
God gave you abilities and talents nobody else has, you have gifts that were tailor made to work for you and for others!!!
There is no one else like you on this planet!!! God created only one you!!!
You were created in secret! Devil didn’t even see you coming!!!
You are part of God’s big divine picture!
Psalms 139: Verse 17! How precious are thoughts of me!!
You can’t be a part of God’s purpose if you have not made a decision to follow God and serve him!
The bible says,
11He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. 12Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God.
This is your ticket to greatness!! Receiving the son of God in to your life and be washed of your sin and renewed in life
