NAYSAYERS

"Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds." - Albert Einstein

Frequently, people are going to be offended by your ideas, plans and deeds. Remember Joseph? His heartless brothers fake his death, sold him to human traffickers. Things go from bad to worse, and Joseph ends up in an Egyptian dungeon. Do you remember why Joseph’s brothers sold him into slavery in the first place? For his dreams. Have you ever been called a 'dreamer'? Every true dreamer has to deal with naysayers, everyone has had more than their fair share and usually they aren't distant acquaintances.

If your dreams don't scare you, then they are too small. If they can scare you, how much more others? Your dreams will inspire many people, no doubt. But those dreams will also attract fierce opposition: they will cause a wide variety of reactions, including jealousy, rejection and anger. Some people might even want to kill you for your dreams. Simply because you're daring to disrupt the status quo.

You’re going to offend someone, but you’ve got to decide who it will be God, or the naysayers. The best revenge against your naysayers, is massive success.
Succeed so well that, like Joseph's brothers they'll come bow down to you and God will be glorified. Don't lose hope today that you're being persecuted for your dreams, instead rejoice because you're changing the status quo by dreaming. Be bold!

Let us pray: Father, thank you for my God-inspired dreams in Jesus name.

"...ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good..." - KJV
