After receiving this message from my author friend, I mentioned it to my husband saying that I thought it was a great sign and that finally maybe the dreams would finally see some application. Thinking along those lines, it then brought to mind the name ‘Gambit’ that I had seen twice earlier that day, and being the word smith that he is he proceeded to tell me that it wasn’t just a name but meant:

‘An opening move or any manoeuvre in which one seeks to secure or gain an advantage.’

This may not seem wondrous or like “A Grand Adventure” to you the reader, but it all makes perfect sense to me – within each connection of ‘Gambit’ are symbols that are pertinent to my personal journey and destiny and tie up with these dreams. I have been walking this out for over 3 years now and have recognised that these dreams are ‘Destiny Dreams’, which I find the most exciting of all!

These sorts of dreams always remind me of the early historical account of Joseph - albeit I prefer the ultimate outcome, rather than where he started! Joseph's dreams initially led him to being thrown into a pit and carted off as a slave to Egypt. Finding himself promoted to an overseer in Potiphar's house, to then being thrown in the dungeons after being falsely accused by Potiphar's wife. Then eventually receiving the opportunity to be able to interpret Pharaohs dreams by the counsel of God which caused him to be placed as 2nd only to Pharaoh and finally to make the appropriate practical applications to then help Egypt through a time of great famine and recession - so who knows where your dreams or signs along the way will lead you! Dreams led him from the pit to the palace!

So what about you? Have you had any “coincidences” that have initially appeared random, but as you have followed them through they have ultimately ended up changing aspects or even providing new direction in your life?



Instead of me just spouting my ideas with little or no response. I love watching people bounce or spark off others and then use the creative talents they have been given (and worked hard at) to inspire all those around them!
