A DREAM COMETH!

 

Eccl 5:3

3 For a dream cometh through the multitude of business; and a fool's voice is known by multitude of words.

 

           Solomon, the writer of Ecclesiastes, is also the writer of the proverbs. That truth gives this verse the ability to stand alone even while it is connected to the context. It also gives it the possibility of at least two meanings.

 

           The strict meaning is that a hard day’s labor might cause dreams which are a compilation of the day’s activities. That being the case, I have had some “doozies!” Some can’t even be repeated here! Without a Daniel to interpret and make sense of them, most of those dreams are dismissed.

 

           The other meaning is that any worthwhile venture, a dream, only becomes a reality through careful planning and hard labor. If you pass any large or successful venture you can be assured that it began as someone’s dream or vision.

 

           What is your vision for yourself, your career, your family, and your church? Are you satisfied with the way things are or do you dream of something bigger and better? If you are a dreamer, God can use you if you apply the labor and patience to bring those dreams about.

 

Acts 2:17

17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,[to tell forth truth or foretell events under inspiration] and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: [be given insight while sleeping]

 

Dear Lord, help me to be a visionary! Give me the strength to add the labor that is necessary to bring those dreams to pass. AMEN
