The Bible is filled with examples of the Lord coming to people in dreams to give them guidance, correction and wisdom. Now a National Football League star is telling the story of how Jesus came to him in a dream and changed his life.

Russell Wilson, star quarterback for the Seattle Seahawks, tells in the new documentary “The Making of a Champion” that when he was 14, Jesus came to him in a dream.

“I had a dream that my dad passed away and that Jesus came into the room and he was basically knocking on my door, saying, ‘Hey, you need to find out more about me,’” Wilson said. “So that Sunday morning I ended up going to church and that’s when I got saved.”

Wilson talks about how he was a “bad kid” and that seeking Christ helped him to mature. He credits God for the talent that has allowed him to become a top player in the NFL.

“No one can stop what God has for you,” Wilson said.
