Moving Forward with Your Dream
You've a dream, but now what? In this sermon, we'll help you move forward with your dream.
In the Bible, Joseph is recorded as having two significant dreams. The first dream is found in Genesis 37:5-8, and the second is recorded in Genesis 37:9-11.
Both dreams were interpreted to mean that Joseph would one day rule over his family, which further angered his brothers. Eventually, Joseph's dreams played a significant role in his story, as he was sold into slavery by his brothers and later rose to power in Egypt, becoming second-in-command to Pharaoh and saving his family from famine.

Nehemiah was a Jewish cupbearer to the Persian King Artaxerxes I. In the book of Nehemiah in the Old Testament of the Bible, it is recorded that Nehemiah heard about the plight of the Jews who had returned to Jerusalem after the Babylonian captivity. The walls of the city had been destroyed, and the people were vulnerable to attacks from their enemies.
1. Pray - Upon hearing this news, Nehemiah was deeply distressed and prayed to God for guidance.
2. Act - He then approached the king and requested permission to go to Jerusalem to rebuild the walls. The king granted his request and also provided him with letters of authorization to ensure his safe passage.
3. Plan - When Nehemiah arrived in Jerusalem, he surveyed the damage to the walls and formulated a plan to rebuild them. He organized the people of Jerusalem into work groups, each with a specific section of the wall to rebuild. Despite opposition from their enemies, the Jews worked diligently and completed the wall in just 52 days.
4- Determination - Nehemiah's leadership, faith, and determination were critical to the success of the wall rebuilding project. His story serves as an example of how faith in God and perseverance can overcome seemingly insurmountable challenges.
Start immediately planning for the future. I Peter 3:10-12, cited from Psalms 34:12-16.
