GOD'S PLAN
You know what happens to you when you sleep and have a very nice dream? Say, you dreamt and saw yourself driving a Porsche car. Or Imagine yourself standing on top of your three-storied Mansion in a hilly environ, where you can view the glamour of the earth as far as your eyes can capture. Or an imaginary honeymoon with your soulmate in Paris. Such experiences are wonderful, ain't they?
The excitement travels from your subconscious self into your physical body. You get up and recall the memory and become excited all by yourself but very angry that you woke up from it. You'd wish it doesn't end. Perhaps someone could just find a way to permanent your stay in there. Funny.
I so much Love the story of Joseph from the Holy book. That passage of the Bible has really helped me understand about Dream, Purpose and Destiny more perfectly in conjunction with God's plans for everyone.
God use Dreams sometimes to communicate his will and plans for us.
NB: Not all Dreams are from God.
Many times also, he use Dream to warn us, or to give us a clearer understanding of what seems to be vague physically.
So Joseph had a wonderful Dream, one that everyone would admire. He saw himself ruling. He saw himself as a honorable and a governor; a leader; a mentor; a prince. So as usual he felt so excited after waking up and went straight to his siblings to communicate it to them.
Left to him they would be happy for him and wish him more pleasant dreams like that, but he didn't know he had just activated a very heavy envy upon himself.
God revealed his plans for him, but he almost ruined it because of ignorance and the ecstasy of the view.
You see, the human sight physically or subconsciously have the vulnerability of being easily amused. Our Jesus Christ would've fell into the same trap if not for the Spirit of God and the living word in him. The deceiver, the Devil, took him up a very high mountain and showed him the beauty of the earth; and promised to give him. But JESUS knew where he was going. He had been given a more real Dream and Vision by GOD and he won't jeopardize it with a rare glance of the beauty of the earth. [Matt 4: 8-10]
God spared Joseph's errors and caused his brothers to sell him to a slave trader instead of their original plan to execute him in cold blood. He got to Egypt and God's plans for him was executed perfectly. [Gen chp 37 to 45 ]
God many times withdraws his plans for us, from us, so we don't ruin it. In a short moment of excitement from the view, we can innocently destroy it, hence forcing God to reschedule his plans for us for a later date.
That's why we see that God can show something about us to someone more spiritually and emotionally stable than us. They are most times our spiritual mentors or those who can perceive strange things from afar.
It is important for us to keep our cool on God's plans for us and not delay them by ourselves. God's plans for everyone is good [Jer 29:11]; so if you end up getting bad experiences, it's not God's fault; there's another explanation to it from your own choices and decisions.
So whatever God shows you about your life and Destiny; guard it jealously. Sustain enough spiritual and psychological intelligence to remote your life towards the direction of God's plans for you.
Remember, you're responsible for you.
