As we look back over the past couple of years and the effects on every level that COVID -19 has reaped upon this world, we must comprehend one of the spiritual purposes that this pandemic has been allowed to happen. As I contemplate and ponder the extraordinary and deadly effects of COVID 19, I cannot help but wonder why. Could it be because we have been spiritually sleepwalking? During our pious slumber, this pandemic has done massive damage to this world. Could the spiritual purpose be for us to Clearly Observe the Vision In our Dreams that God is trying to show us. That could very well be what the acronym COVID stands for from a spiritual aspect.
And then, there is the number 19. According to some, the number 19 seems to be a common number, but it is clear, that it is much more than that. Some theologist believe the number 19 represents the time for spiritual awakening and growth.
Therefore, as we spiritually awaken from our slumber and begin to grow spiritually, it is important that we have Clearly Observed the Vision In our Dreams that God has shown us.
These "awakenings" are essentially the process of spiritual growth and sanctification. They are part of what Romans 12:2 describes: "Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect."
So, as we walk in our spiritual awaking and growth, remember the dream that God has or will place in each of us. As the WORD reads, write down your dream. It will come to pass when God says it is time. It will be fulfilled and is not a fake dream. So, wait for it! It will surely come to pass with no delay. Your personalized dreams will take you to the spiritual expectation that God has for you. Remember, not every dream appears while you are sleep. Wake up and pay close attention.

19 - A sign that it is time for your spiritual awakening and growth
2 Peter 3:18
But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be the glory both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.
1Peter 2:2
Like newborn babies, you must crave pure spiritual milk so that you will grow into a full experience of salvation. Cry out for this nourishment.
Unfortunately, it took a harsh pandemic, Covid-19, to wake some of us up spiritually as well as in other areas of our lives. Even though the pandemic is recognized as being officially over, some have fallen back into their pre-pandemic ways spiritually and have allowed themselves to be conformed to this world rather than transformed. Along with studying God's Word, writing the vision can help us to grow spiritually.
