    • Joseph – He puts a dream within our heart.
    • Moses – He allows us to fail in our attempt to accomplish His dreams in our own power.
    • David – He teaches us through adversity to love the “Dream-giver” more than “the dreams.”
    • Paul – He clarifies our calling in times of crisis and often uses our worst failures as the platform of His future fulfillment.
    • Jesus – The dream will cost us our life and appear to others as the height of folly just before God accomplishes the impossible through us.
