The phrase "dream plan" metaphorically signifies the divine purpose or calling that God has for each person. It suggests that our lives are part of a greater vision or design that God has envisioned for us, encompassing His desires, blessings, and intentions for our well-being and spiritual growth.

Then God said, “Let Us make man in our image, according to Our likeness;”                                                                                       Genesis 1:26-31 

GENESIS 1:16-31 

16 Then God made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He made the stars also. 17 God set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth, 18 and to rule over the day and the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good. 19 So the evening and the morning were the fourth days. 20 Then God said, "Let the waters abound with an abundance of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the face of the firmament of the heavens." 21 So God created great sea creatures and every living thing that moves, with which the waters abounded, according to their kind, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. 22 And God blessed them, saying, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth." 23 So the evening and the morning were the fifth days. 24 Then God said, "Let the earth bring forth the living creature according to its kind: cattle and creeping thing and beast of the earth, each according to its kind"; and it was so. 25 And God made the beast of the earth according to its kind, cattle according to its kind, and everything that creeps on the earth according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. 26 Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth." 27 So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. 28 Then God blessed them, and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth." 29 And God said, "See, I have given you every herb that yields seed which is on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit yields seed; to you, it shall be for food. 30 Also, to every beast of the earth, to every bird of the air, and to everything that creeps on the earth, in which there is life, I have given every green herb for food"; and it was so. 31 Then God saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very good. So the evening and the morning were the sixth days. 

"Before God spoke those words, He already had the dream plan in mind for you and me."

"Before God spoke those words, He already had the dream plan in mind for you and me" suggests that even before God uttered specific words or commands, He already had a preconceived plan or purpose in mind for each individual. It implies that God's intentions and plans for our lives were established even before He revealed them through His words.

1. He knows the end from the beginning. 

The statement "He knows the end from the beginning" refers to God's omniscience and His complete knowledge of all events and outcomes, both past and future. It means that God has perfect knowledge of how things will unfold and the ultimate outcome of every situation, even before they occur.

This understanding emphasizes God's timeless nature and His ability to see the entire timeline of existence all at once. It highlights that God is not limited by time as humans are, and He sees the entire span of history from its beginning to its end.

By knowing the end from the beginning, God has a comprehensive understanding of the purposes and outcomes of all things. This knowledge allows Him to guide and direct human affairs according to His divine plan. It also reassures believers that God's wisdom and providence are at work, even in situations that may seem uncertain or unpredictable to us.

The concept of God knowing the end from the beginning affirms His sovereignty and assures us that He is in complete control, even when we cannot comprehend the full scope of events. It encourages trust in God's guidance and prompts us to seek His wisdom and guidance in our own lives, knowing that He already sees the ultimate outcome.

ISAIAH 46:10  Declaring the end from the beginning, And from ancient times things that are not yet done, Saying, 'My counsel shall stand, And I will do all My pleasure,'

The verse Isaiah 46:10 is a passage from the Bible that highlights God's sovereignty and foreknowledge. It declares that God has the ability to declare the end from the beginning, meaning that He knows the outcome of all things before they happen. It also states that God can speak about things that are not yet done, even from ancient times.

The verse emphasizes God's omniscience and control over time. It conveys the idea that God's counsel, or His plans and purposes, will ultimately prevail and come to pass. It asserts that God's will and pleasure will be accomplished, regardless of human understanding or the passage of time.

This passage reminds believers of God's supreme authority and wisdom. It assures them that God is in control of all things, both in the past and future, and that His plans will be fulfilled according to His perfect timing and purposes. It serves as a source of comfort and encouragement, affirming that God's intentions and promises will come to fruition

2. You are a finished product in the sight of God through eternity.

The statement "You are a finished product in the sight of God through eternity" suggests that from God's perspective and in His eternal view, you are complete and whole. It implies that in God's eyes, your identity and purpose have already been established and fulfilled.

This concept is rooted in the belief that God, being all-knowing and timeless, sees beyond the limitations of time and perceives the entirety of your existence. From His perspective, He sees you as a finished work, encompassing all that you are and will be.

It signifies that God has a divine plan for your life, which includes your spiritual growth, transformation, and ultimate destiny. From God's eternal perspective, He sees the fulfillment of His purposes in your life, and He views you as complete in His sight.

This understanding carries a sense of assurance and encouragement. It suggests that you have inherent value and purpose in God's eyes, and your journey through life is part of a greater design that God has already completed. It invites you to embrace your identity as a beloved child of God, fully accepted and cherished by Him.

However, it's important to note that this statement does not imply that your earthly journey is without growth, challenges, or the need for continued spiritual development. It rather emphasizes the certainty of God's plan and His view of your ultimate destiny, even as you continue to grow and mature in your relationship with Him.

JEREMIAH 1:5 "Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you; Before you were born, I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations."

This verse from the book of Jeremiah shows God speaking to the prophet Jeremiah, revealing His divine knowledge and purpose for Jeremiah's life. It emphasizes that even before Jeremiah was formed in the womb, God knew him intimately. It speaks to God's foreknowledge and sovereign plan for Jeremiah's life, as well as his consecration and appointment as a prophet to the nations. This verse highlights God's personal involvement and intentionality in shaping and calling individuals for specific purposes in His divine plan.

GALATIANS 1:1  Paul, an apostle (not from men nor through man, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father who raised Him from the dead),

This verse is from the book of Galatians and is part of the opening greeting from the apostle Paul. It emphasizes the divine authority and source of Paul's apostleship. He asserts that his apostleship did not originate from human beings or through any human agency, but it was bestowed upon him directly by Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised Jesus from the dead. This verse underscores Paul's recognition of his unique calling and commissioning as an apostle by divine appointment, rather than through human authorization or influence.

These two verses showcase the concept of divine calling and appointment. In Jeremiah 1:5, God speaks of His knowledge and purpose for Jeremiah even before his birth, highlighting God's sovereignty in calling and setting apart individuals for specific tasks. In Galatians 1:1, Paul affirms his apostleship as a divine commissioning from Jesus Christ and God the Father, emphasizing the divine origin and authority of his ministry.

Both verses affirm the understanding that God is actively involved in the lives of His chosen instruments, calling and equipping them for specific roles and tasks in His kingdom purposes. They remind us of God's sovereign plan and his personal involvement in directing and using individuals for His glory.

3. Everything is already there in the blueprint, just like when an Architect wants to build the house; everything is already put in place. 

The statement "Everything is already there in the blueprint, just like when an Architect wants to build the house; everything is already put in place" suggests that there is a preconceived plan or design for something, and all the necessary elements and details are already established beforehand.

In the context of an architect wanting to build a house, before construction begins, the architect creates a blueprint that outlines the structure, layout, and specifications of the house. The blueprint contains all the necessary information and instructions for the construction process. It serves as a guide for builders and ensures that all components and details are accounted for.

The statement implies that similarly, in the grand scheme of life and existence, there is a divine plan or blueprint that encompasses all things. This blueprint, which is attributed to God's wisdom and foreknowledge, contains the intricacies and arrangements of events, circumstances, and individuals' lives. From this perspective, everything is already set in place according to the predetermined design.

This understanding suggests that there is a sense of order and purpose in the universe, and nothing is left to chance or randomness. It conveys the idea that God, as the ultimate Architect, has already planned and ordained all things according to His divine wisdom. It further implies that there is a purposeful unfolding of events and circumstances guided by this divine blueprint.

However, it is important to note that this statement does not negate the concept of free will or personal agency. While God may have an overarching plan, individuals still have the freedom to make choices and participate in shaping their lives. The statement mainly highlights the idea that there is a higher divine order and purpose to all things, and God's plan is already established.

PSALM 139:16 Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, The days fashioned for me When as yet there were none of them.

This verse from Psalm 139 expresses the psalmist's awe and recognition of God's deep knowledge and involvement in their life. It portrays God's intimate awareness and care even before the psalmist's physical formation in the womb. It suggests that God's eyes saw the psalmist's innermost being and purpose, even before their physical existence. The verse further implies that God had already written and ordained the events and days of the psalmist's life, even before they came into existence. This verse emphasizes God's sovereignty and his personal investment in the life of every individual.

 Psalm 139:16 reveals that God saw and ordained the days of the psalmist's life before they even came into being, emphasizing God's involvement in every aspect of our existence.

EPHESIANS 1:4 just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love,

This verse from the book of Ephesians speaks to the believers' divine election and calling. It highlights the idea that before the foundation of the world, God chose and selected believers to be in a relationship with Him through Jesus Christ. It emphasizes that this divine choice was not based on human merit or actions but was an act of God's grace and purpose. The verse also expresses God's desire for believers to be holy and blameless before Him, motivated by His love.

Both verses underline the concept of God's foreknowledge and sovereignty.

 Ephesians 1:4 speaks of God's predestination and choosing of believers before the foundation of the world, highlighting God's sovereign plan and His desire for believers to live in holiness and love.

These verses remind us of God's intimate knowledge, purpose, and active involvement in our lives. They affirm the idea that God's plans and purposes extend beyond the boundaries of time and space, and that our lives have meaning and significance in His eternal design.

• You are completed in the sight of God throughout eternity. -- Colossians 2:10 God created you with a purpose and a Dream Destiny

The statement "You are completed in the sight of God throughout eternity" emphasizes that in the eyes of God, you are already whole and complete. This understanding is connected to the verse Colossians 2:10, which states, "And in Him you have been made complete, and He is the head over all rule and authority."

Colossians 2:10 affirms that believers find their completeness and fulfillment in Christ. It suggests that through a relationship with Christ, believers are made whole and lacking nothing. It acknowledges that Christ is the ultimate authority and source of spiritual fullness.

When connected with the idea that "God created you with a purpose and a Dream Destiny," it underscores the belief that God has a specific plan and destiny for your life. It suggests that God's purpose for creating you extends throughout eternity and includes a dream or calling that He has placed within you. This dream destiny refers to the unique purpose and mission that God has specifically designed for you to fulfill.

The combination of these ideas conveys that, in God's sight, you are already complete and whole through your relationship with Christ. This completeness is not based on external achievements or circumstances but is rooted in your identity as a child of God. It also highlights that God has intricately crafted and ordained a specific purpose or dream destiny for you, which unfolds throughout eternity.

Overall, this perspective reminds believers of their inherent value and purpose in God's sight. It encourages them to seek their completeness in Christ and to actively pursue and embrace the dream destiny that God has prepared for them.

being made in human likeness 8 And being found in appearance as a man,
he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death— even death on a cross! 9 Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

2 Kings 4:8-17 

8 One day Elisha went to Shunem. And a well-to-do woman was there, who urged him to stay for a meal. So whenever he came by, he stopped there to eat. 9 She said to her husband, “I know that this man who often comes our way is a holy man of God. 10 Let’s make a small room on the roof and put in it a bed and a table, a chair and a lamp for him. Then he can stay there whenever he comes to us.”

11 One day when Elisha came, he went up to his room and lay down there. 12 He said to his servant Gehazi, “Call the Shunammite.” So he called her, and she stood before him. 13 Elisha said to him, “Tell her, ‘You have gone to all this trouble for us. Now, what can be done for you? Can we speak on your behalf to the king or the commander of the army?’” She replied, “I have a home among my own people.” 14 “What can be done for her?” Elisha asked. Gehazi said, “She has no son, and her husband is old.” 15 Then Elisha said, “Call her.” So he called her, and she stood in the doorway. 16 “About this time next year,” Elisha said, “you will hold a son in your arms.” “No, my lord!” she objected. “Please, the man of God, don’t mislead your servant!” 17 But the woman became pregnant, and the next year about that same time she gave birth to a son, just as Elisha had told her.

One of the most important things you can do to see your dream come to pass is to be a giver. Your dream will never come to pass until you are willing to sow into the dream of another and become a dream partner. Get involved in somebody else dream and God will get involved in yours. –Jerry Savelle

These women were helping to support them out of their own means. Luke 8:1-3   

2. Because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now. Phil. 1:5 

Now it happened one day that Elisha went to Shunem, where there was a notable woman, and she persuaded him to eat some food.
