Topic: How To Conceive A Vision For Living [Sunday January 14th, 2018]
Scripture: I will stand upon my watch, and set me upon the tower, and will watch to see what he will say unto me, and what I shall answer when I am reproved. And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. Habakkuk 2:1-2.
Thought For The Day: Your vision determines your position in life.
Previously, we have identified the importance of vision in the life of a person. It is very important, therefore, to know how to conceive vision for living. There are many people who are ready to run with vision but do not know how to conceive it.
Today, we shall look at practical steps on how to conceive a vision:
- By asking for revelation from God
This is asking God at the place of prayer to tell you what He created you for. God showed Joseph what he would become by revelation through dreams.
- By having the passion to offer solution
A person can arrive at vision by having the passion to offer solution. Moses saw his brethren being unjustly treated and a vision came into his heart to deliver them. Nehemiah saw the broken walls of Jerusalem and became passionate to rebuild it. Your vision determines your position in life; your passion determines the position God will place you in life.
- By the realization of potential
This is understanding the potentials God put inside of you and deploying them accordingly. David realized he had the potential to bring down a giant called Goliath. Joseph realized that he had the gift of dream interpretation. When you discover the potential in you and what God has put inside you and you determine to pursue it by taking relevant action, you are on the path of vision fulfilment.
Beloved, I welcome you to a life of vision fulfilment as you follow these steps in Jesus’ Name.
Remember This: Your vision determines your position in life.
