AWAKEN

Beloved congregation, today's sermon centers on a profound theme: "AWAKEN." Each of you carries dreams and aspirations, not as mere fleeting thoughts but as divine prompts placed within you by the Almighty. Remember this: "Do all you can to make your dreams come true. Because it is God who placed that dream in you."

God, in His infinite wisdom, has sown dreams within every heart. These aren't mere whims or passing fancies but divine signals, tailormade for every individual, hinting at a purpose, a mission. They're not just desires; they are revelations of God's grand plan for each one of us.

These dreams signify our divine mission. They are etched deep within our souls, showing us the heights we can reach when we align with God's will. They light up our journey, guiding us to our most genuine, divine selves.

However, a dream without active pursuit remains just that – a dream. It demands faith, determination, and perseverance to metamorphose into reality. They beckon us to rise above the mundane, urging us to explore the vast landscapes of our potential.

Realize that God has given us dreams and simultaneously equipped us with the resources to bring them to fruition. Within you lies the reservoir of talent, determination, and the enduring spirit gifted by God.

This is the magnificent truth: The dream you cradle in your heart was trusted to you because God saw in you the strength to chase it, the heart to nurture it, and the unwavering faith to realize it. This sacred journey of following your dream, guided by faith, has God's promise of fulfillment.

So, my dear brethren, breathe life into your dreams. Understand that these divine inklings are testaments of God's trust and immense love for us. Be bold in your dreams, in your faith, in your actions. The dream you hold bears the mark of divine approval, bestowed upon it by God.

May the Almighty empower you, guide you, and shine His grace upon you as you ardently pursue the dreams He's gracefully sowed within. Amen.
