THE END OF YOUR DREAMS: A PLUS OR MINUS TO HEAVEN?

WILL CELEBRITY MATTER IN ETERNITY?
Remember Joseph, the dreamer? Finally his dreams came to pass, all! We shall come back to him.
Today, many have dreams, talents, abilities, strengths, relationships...but Heaven is in tears and at a loss because of the dreams and visions that some people are pursuing and fulfilling.
Briefly, do you know what makes a man a STAR?
1.      Strengths (S)
2.      Talents (T)
3.      Abilities (A)
4.      Relationships (R)
*S + T + A + R = STAR
You cannot become a star if you ignore the Strengths, Talents, Abilities and Relationships God has brought into your life. People despise relationships and their destiny remains a mirage before their very eyes. That point where you reach and you do not struggle to shine or be recognized...you have become a (shinning) light; a kingdom STAR.
But the BIG question that everyone will face and answer on the day of judgement is: HOW MANY PEOPLE DID YOUR STAR LEAD TO JESUS? HOW MANY PEOPLE THROUGH YOUR (GOD-GIVEN) DREAMS, VISIONS AND TALENTS MADE HEAVEN?
There was a star that led the ‘wise men’ from the east (unbelievers they were) to Jesus. And their lives (the wise men) changed for good and for God. They found the way to salvation through a star.
Dear friend and celebrity, God is not against you becoming a star, but are you are a star for the kingdom of God, leading people to Heaven? Or, your star (as a musician, celebrity, model, actor, actress, footballer, etc) is leading people to Hell? I tell you a truth, there is no way you will make others sin and miss Heaven and you expect God to open that same Heaven to you (except you repent).
What makes you a real star is if you shine here on earth and in Heaven your light is not missing.
“And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever” (Dan. 12:3).
Anyone who misses Heaven will be in Hell where there is no shinning but weeping and gnashing of teeth. In Hell, there are no fans or followers; no one to sing your praise and hailing you in iniquity. Your fans in fame would become your fans in flames. Celebrity is not a license in eternity...salvation and holiness is!
What has your talent achieved for God? Any talent that produces and promotes nakedness, lust, immorality (through music, etc) has been hijacked  by the devil and is working against God. Many young people who claim God is the source of their “successes” are fighting on the side of the devil and against God. How? Their beauty, gifts, knowledge are making others to fall, to weep, to miss Heaven, and to go to Hell.
Back to Joseph;
“But God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, TO SAVE MUCH PEOPLE ALIVE” (Gen. 50:20).
All his dreams and the fulfilment of them was for one ultimate eternal purpose; “TO SAVE MUCH PEOPLE ALIVE”.
Joseph is not in Heaven because he fulfilled his dreams, but because by the fulfilment of His dreams, he saved much people alive. Friend, how many people are staying alive because of your dreams? How many people are escaping Hell and finding God (Heaven) by your dreams?
In the end, any dream without eternal impact and significance is a failed dream. And this is why, my ability to write, my medical knowledge, everything, must save me and them that hear me. May our dreams not take us and others to Hell. May you and I not fail God.
