Memorise: “The LORD of hosts hath sworn, saying, Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand:” (Is 14:24) Read: Exodus 3:1-10 |
| God can restore lost years, wasted efforts, lost health, freedom, and joy. Besides, God can restore forgotten dreams.
Moses had an encounter with God. Within his first six years, his mother taught him that he was a Jew, not an Egyptian, and that God had a special plan for his life. He knew part of that plan embraced delivering the Israelites from several years of Egyptian domination and slavery.
He even tried to act that out by killing an Egyptian but he got into trouble. He had to go on exile to stay alive. He was 40 years old then. After another 40 years as a fugitive, he gave up his dream of delivering his people. He was just waiting to die. He was satisfied with eating and watching over sheep and going back to bed. But one day, the bush burned and his destiny was restored. His forgotten dream returned. Like Moses, it is possible you once had great dreams that you would be great and that the world would hear about you. Then you encountered series of setbacks. Today, you have completely forgotten your dreams. The One who restored the forgotten dream of Moses will restore yours in Jesus’ Name. Never give up on your dream as long as the Restorer of dreams is alive and with you. When I was very young – in 1950, only two lorries came into my village – an Austin and a Bedford. Those days, very few people could afford to put on shoes. They included the traditional head, the village headmaster and the catechist. One day, the Anglican bishop came on a visit. All the little children including myself, lined up on the way as the hunters fired gun shots to welcome him. He came in a shiny car, and was well dressed. When I saw his shoes, my mouth opened wide in surprise. On getting home that day, I told my mother I was going to be a bishop. As the years rolled by, I forgot that dream. In 1981, when I became the General Overseer of the RCCG, I went to visit our church in my village. I went in a brand new car, my shoes were glittering. The school children lined up the way and the hunters fired their guns to welcome me. Then I realized I had just fulfilled my childhood dream. What is the dream of your childhood or youth? Have you discarded it? Don’t! The Restorer will breath into it and bring it back to life. That dream will come true. Hand it over to Him today!

| If you are sensitive, you can recall something God showed you or spoke to you about your future many years ago. It is a dream. Hold on to it! |
Yes I know, and thankful to God that He is able to restore what I have lost.
