The Man With A Dream (TRUE story)

This man had a dream ... and shared his dream with a close friend ... hoping his friend would lend him $10,000.

• His friend slept on it.
• Next day his friend told him that it was a great idea, but that he wouldn't risk the $10,000.

So, the man went to a bank, and got turn down.

• He went to another bank ... got turned down.
• He went to the 3rd, 4th, & 5th bank ... got turned down. (how many would have quit?)
• He went to 100 banks ... got turned down.

Just a couple side-notes:

• Who said it was going to be easy???
• Pursue that God-given dream within you. He has a plan and purpose for YOU! He hasn't given up on you, don't YOU give up on Him. (You may want to listen to the 14-part Hope Series on my website. See the audio section at the bottom of the page on this link ... www.bishopdennisdavis.com/index.php/media/ministry)

The dream continued to burn within him.

• He went to 200 banks ... to 300 banks ... he was turned down repeatedly.

Another side-note: So many quit too soon. It's not that they failed, it's just that success didn't come quick enough for them, so they give up, and quit. Think about this. Who did God give the dream to? YOU! Others may not see it, because God gave it to YOU! As you continue to pursue the dream He gave to YOU, others will begin to "catch" the vision. Stay faithful!

He went to 307 banks ... he was turned down by each of them.

• UNTIL ... bank 308 took the risk on his idea.
• So ... Walt Disney started Disneyland ...
• and ... his friend, Art Linkletter, is still kicking himself for not taking a risk on his friend's idea.

NEVER, NEVER, NEVER ... quit!

May God bless you abundantly!!!

Confirmation

I received this prophecy through email, and found it as a confirmation of getting the "Hope Series" on the website. At this writing, I have parts 1-4 (of 14 parts) uploaded and active on the website. People need HOPE ... there are many hopeless people in the world today. This series, if people will receive, and act upon, the message preached, will launch them into a "hopeful" future.

Here's the prophetic word that I received through email this morning.

"I am releasing a new wave of possibilities as I fling open the doors of hope. This is a time when you can hatch new ideas and creative ways to remove the clogs in expression and progression. If you will seek expansion through My Spirit, you will begin to move in a new flow of freedom. Don't be afraid to forge ahead, but also be diligent to discern what is of Me, or of the flesh. Your spirit will bear witness to My Spirit, says the Lord."

May God bless you, and make you a blessing to others,
