In almost every one of my dreams, I’m presented with an option to take an easier path—a choice to minimize the God-sized dream, allowing it to morph into something that sounds good but isn’t exactly what I sensed the Lord was stirring in me; but because it seems like the path of least resistance, I am willing to give in. Do you ever find yourself doing that, too? Do you ever find yourself trading in God-sized dreams for dreams that provide a bit more comfort, security, or ease? It can happen to the best of us, and it certainly happened to the Israelites.
The Israelites cried out for freedom, and the reason they found themselves in a situation where freedom was now their heart cry was because they had settled for less than the God-sized dream that had been given to their ancestors – Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. They had taken the path of least resistance, and eventually they had paid for it in the form of oppression and slavery. They had traded their dreams, bit by bit, for a lesser god, and they didn’t continue to trust the Lord with their lives. It didn’t happen overnight but was a gradual progression ending with them crying out for rescue.
After the Israelites were enslaved and worked to the bone and their baby boys were being thrown into the Nile River in an attempt to erase their very existence, they cried out for help. God heard their cries and remembered His promise to their ancestors. He would rescue them just as He promised Jacob he would in Genesis 46:3-4.
God planned to deliver them, heal them, and give them the Promised Land. He would be their King, not Pharaoh. He would be their Deliverer, not their slave driver. He would hold up His end of the promise despite the Israelites’ choice to worship the gods of Egypt and place their trust and well-being in the hands of the king of Egypt.
In our lives, there almost always will be an easier way we can take, a path of least resistance; but God-sized dreams require us to follow after the Dream Giver and trust Him with our hearts, relationships, family, finances, and well-being. We can’t worship God, trusting Him with our dreams, and also worship the pharaohs of this world. God requires our complete trust.
