We need to exercise care when it comes to sharing our dreams as who we share our dreams with will to a large extent determine whether they are fulfilled or fizzle out. Not everyone needs to know your dreams as not everyone has the ability to help you bring them to fruition and if they don’t, what then is the purpose of sharing? We could kill our dreams by telling them to the wrong people the reason being the wrong people will plant in our hearts fear and discouragement which will keep us rooted to the spot and stop us from taking the actions required to bring our dreams to fulfilment.
Jesus had a dream and he shared the same with his disciples who were supposed to be his inner circle and the bible records that Simon took him aside and began to rebuke him (the aim of this was to introduce fear and to keep him from accomplishing his dream) but because Jesus knew better he instantly silenced Peter and with a very strong rebuke too.
Joseph had a dream and he told it to his brethren; it led to increased hatred for him and a plot to kill him so as to stop the fulfilment of his dreams.
Pharaoh told his dream to Joseph and not only did he get an interpretation he got a solution to the challenge and ultimately the fulfilment of his dream. Needless to say that Pharaoh shared his dream with the right person.
The people you tell your dream will usually do one of three things; one, talk you out of it by introducing discouragement and fear mainly because it is out of their comfort zone and they fear what you will become at the actualisation of your dream. Two, try to resist the fulfilment of your dream through opposition (like Joseph’s brothers). Three, they will support you in the actualisation of your dream.
Therefore the next time you are going to share your dream with a friend or family member, ask yourself the question, Will they help me achieve my dream, talk me out of it or become an opposition?
If you are unsure, say nothing.
