9-Apr Joshua 19-21 1 Tim. 3-4 Psalms 41-45 Proverbs 9

Josh 21:43-45 (NIV) 43 So the Lord gave Israel all the land he had sworn to give their forefathers, and they took possession of it and settled there. 44 The Lord gave them rest on every side, just as he had sworn to their forefathers. Not one of their enemies withstood them; the Lord handed all their enemies over to them. 45 Not one of all the Lord's good promises to the house of Israel failed; every one was fulfilled.

COMPASS GUIDE clearly indicates that there are three dimensions of living for a follower of Christ.  NEED: Where God meets every need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.  This is a wonderful first dimension as God will supernaturally provide for the follower of Christ.  Whether it's food supernaturally showing up in the refrigerator, a bill miraculously being paid, unplanned checks in the mail, or any creative way that God meets your needs, this powerful dimension is one that every believer should walk in and benefit from.  God's children should not be begging bread or living in need.   DESIRE:  Proverbs declares that God will give you the desires of your heart.  This is a most powerful dimension because it brings happiness and joy to the believer.  It's one thing to receive bread for your needs, but to receive steak, potatoes and gravy for that bread is something that puts a smile on the believer.  It's called favor, blessing, and confirms that God loves, accepts, and reaches out to His people.  This dimension makes life really good for a person, and it brings an increased capacity for the follower of Christ to stand up and announce the greatness and goodness of God through the word of his testimony.  DREAM LAND:  This dimension is the final stop, the land of promise.  This is the land flowing with milk and honey.  It's God's planned destiny for your life, and it's the culmination of all the gifts, callings, talents, and strengths that God put in you.  When your puzzle is fully assembled, you will find yourself in the land of promise, the dream of God.  And any dream of God will be a dream of yours, because all of your desires, dreams, wishes, and inner workings are linked to that dream.  It's the final culmination of fulfillment.

How many dimensions are you living in.  Statistics say that over 90% of the world is out of place, hates their jobs, and they are not content, happy, or fulfilled with their lives.  This means that they are not even living in dimension two DESIRE, let alone headed for the DREAM.  Only 10% of the world knows how to set a realistic, attainable goal.  Only 10% of the world achieves fulfillment and success in their lives.  This is the remnant, and these are those who found the secrets of the kingdom of God.  They are focused.  They do everything on purpose.  They use every opportunity to further their purpose and calling.  They reach their goals, finish their course, and they seize the moment.  They are different from the 90% because they have tapped into the secrets of the kingdom of God.

I want to invite you to this dimensional lifestyle where all three dimensions are living and active in your daily life.  Living outside of the three dimensions of NEED, DESIRE, and THE DREAM is not really living, it's only survival, slavery, and cyclical "rat race" mentality.  I challenge you to get off the merry go round and get on the fast track train towards your dreams!  Get a COMPASS GUIDE today at www.doctordanieldaves.com or on www.amazon.com and then join a COMPASS GUIDE seminar near you.
