The book of Genesis is replete with stories of men and women who faced impossibilities and yet saw them became possibilities. Look at Adam and Eve. Their son was murdered by his brother. God sends Cain away, but how is the earth to be populated? They had to have another son, Seth. May be your dreams lie dead and buried. May be you have lost everything, but I want to encourage you that you can start all over again and make it very well.
Look at Abraham and Sarah. No child, but with everything else going for them. Yet at 90 she gave birth. Don't allow the world or anyone to speak death to your dream. Sarah laughed at 90 am sure amused at a God who didn't look at the age as anything to stop Him from giving Sarah her promise. It's never too late to achieve your dream. Jacob was conned by his father in law but refused to give up. Rebekah when childless refused to believe that she would be barren but held onto the covenant promise that she would mother mighty descendants for their lineage. Joseph saw his dream fulfilled even though he passed through a pit and a prison before the palace.
How do it I do it again?

- Plan: It took preparation is important when setting out on a journey. Abraham stepped out to sacrifice Isaac with all he needed. Wherever God is leading you plan before you go. No sports personality ever made it big without developing themselves for the race.
- Have faith: No one ever made it with God without faith. If your faith is lacking develop it. Faith is not mental assent. Too many people think mental assent is faith but faith is of the heart.
- Move: No point talking about your plans and not fulfilling them. Abraham moved to the place God told him. Jacob stepped into the place of his calling and saw his name change. Step out and step into your dreams and see your name change from failure to success.
- Be thankful. Even Noah was grateful that the waters had receded. Be grateful for every small step as you step out.
The world is waiting for you. Imagine if Eve never had another child....my what a dilemma for God!! But God has put it within us the capacity to arise above every challenge as we place out hands into His awesome hands.
