Judges 5:12, NIV
Wake up, wake up, Deborah! Wake up, wake up, break out in song! Arise, Barak! Take captive your captives...
The prophet Joel said, "Wake up the mighty men!" I am here to wake up your dreams, wake up your talents, wake up your potential, wake up what God put in you. You may have let some circumstances convince you that it's never going to happen, but I believe you are going to rise up and see it come to pass. Don't be discouraged by the disappointment, the closed door, or the bad break. That's a sign that the dream is still alive in you.
Get your hopes up. Every morning, rise up and remind yourself to be patient, to persevere, and to prepare. Keep honoring God, keep being your best, and what He has promised you is going to thrust you to a new level of your destiny. What God has put in you is going to take you further and be bigger than you could have imagined, better than anything you have ever dreamed, and more rewarding than you ever thought possible.
Father, thank You for the call to rise up, to get my hopes up, to start expecting things to change, to wake up what You put in me. Thank You that I am closer to going to the next level than I have ever been. I believe that I am about to see more than I have ever imagined. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
