3. The season where the dream looks impossible.
The dream literally turns into a nighmare—it seems it will never happen. In this stage, the dreamer has full buy-in and has given themselves totally over to see the dream come to pass, but it just is not happening.
God often uses delay to purify the motives of the dreamer. This is also the season the dreamer realizes the dream cannot come to pass without self-abandonment.
We must realize that God’s dreams require God’s help. God will also bring us to the absolute realization that we cannot produce His dream in our own strength.
A dream that tarries is always about waiting on God to prepare the fruit that is ripe and ready for harvest.
4. The season where the dream becomes a reality.
This sounds like a good season, but it may be the most difficult season of all. This is the season where fear sets in. It is actually a good fear. This fear is the reality that the dream actually might happen. This season of fear is where we experience a high level of introspection.
This is the awareness stage that the dream is too big for us. This is also the season where the dream becomes so tangible that there is no backing out. This is the point of no return.
5. The season where fear gives way to faith.
Every season of fear eventually bows down to faith. Dreams and faith are synonymous. We cannot fulfill God’s dream without faith in Him. When God gives faith for the dream, He also imparts faith to the dreamer. The dream is near when fear gives way to faith and you begin to take action steps to see the dream come to PASS!
