DREAM-KILLERS – DREAM-SAVERS
Genesis 37:19-21
"Then they said to one another, 'Look, this dreamer is coming! Come therefore, let us now kill him and cast him into some pit; and we shall say, "Some wild beast has devoured him." We shall see what will become of his dreams.' But Reuben heard it, and he delivered him out of their hands, and said, 'Let us not kill him.' "
There will always be dream-killers – people who have the ministry of destroying other people's visions. They are nay-sayers who put down other people's dreams by undermining, or ridiculing, or saying, "It can't be done," or saying, "Who does he think he is?" Scornfully, they say, "We will see what happens to his dreams." But God often sends a deliverer to keep the dream alive – an encourager who will stand up against the crowd. Many dreams would die if it wasn't for the Reubens in this world.
TODAY'S PRINCIPLE: Dreams die without encouragers who help save the dream from extinction.

Have a Reuben (not a sandwich) day. Love you.
