God Will Redeem Your Dream

 God Will Redeem Your Dream

Have you ever felt like your dreams have been shattered, lost, or stolen? Maybe you've faced disappointment, rejection, or failure, and it seems like your dreams are slipping away.

But here's the good news: God is a redeemer. He specializes in taking broken, lost, and shattered dreams and redeeming them for His glory.

From Evil to Good

Genesis 50:20 says, "You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives." This verse reminds us that God can take even the most evil intentions and turn them into something good.

When Joseph's brothers sold him into slavery, they intended to harm him. But God had other plans. He used Joseph's slavery to position him for greatness, ultimately saving the lives of many people.

Redeeming the Impossible

2 Kings 4:11-13, 14-16, 17 tells the story of a Shunammite woman who faced the impossible. Her son had died, and she was left with no hope. But Elisha, a prophet of God, intervened and prayed for the boy. Miraculously, the boy came back to life.

This story shows us that God can redeem even the most impossible situations. When we face circumstances that seem hopeless, we can trust that God is working behind the scenes to redeem and restore.

Hope in the Midst of Suffering

Job 19:23-25 says, "Oh, that my words were recorded, that they were written on a scroll, that they were inscribed with an iron tool on lead, or engraved in rock forever! I know that my redeemer lives, and that in the end he will stand on the earth."

Job's words give us hope in the midst of suffering. Even when we're facing intense pain and hardship, we can trust that our redeemer lives. God is working to redeem our circumstances, and He will ultimately stand victorious.

God's Plans Are Not Hindered

Isaiah 42:19 says, "Who is blind but my servant, and deaf like the messenger I send? Who is blind like the one who is at peace with me, and blind like the servant of the Lord?"

This verse reminds us that God's plans are not hindered by our circumstances. Even when we're facing challenges and obstacles, God is working to redeem and restore.

Conclusion

God is a redeemer. He specializes in taking broken, lost, and shattered dreams and redeeming them for His glory. When we face impossible circumstances, we can trust that God is working behind the scenes to redeem and restore.

May we hold on to hope, knowing that our redeemer lives. May we trust that God's plans are not hindered by our circumstances. And may we see God's redemption in our lives, as He takes our broken dreams and makes them new.
