“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. For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.” Habakkuk 2:1-3 KJV
Happy New Month beloved of God. It is the second month of this year 2022. The Omnipotent God has been gracious unto us. His power has kept us hitherto, His power will sustain us in this new month and beyond in Jesus mighty name.
Beloved, this year is on the run, and before we blink our eyes or say Jack Robinson, it will be over. A very pertinent question everyone should ask himself or herself is: Do I have a vision for this year? From the Bible passage above, God expects you and I to have vision.
What is vision? The dictionary defines it as the faculty or state of being able to see. Secondly it is the ability to think about or plan the future with imagination or wisdom. Thirdly, it is defined as an experience of seeing someone or something in a dream or trance, or as a supernatural apparition. Again, the millions dollars question for you is: do you have a vision for your life, family, career, ministry etc this year? If yes, you need to run with it. Otherwise, it is not too late to birth one and ensure it aligns with God’s purpose for your life.
As children of God, we are not only expected to BIRTH a vision, we are to WRITE IT DOWN, MAKE IT PLAIN UPON THE TABLES, READ IT and RUN WITH IT. It is action added to vision that makes it a powerful reality. May you receive grace to translate your vision to reality this month and this year in Jesus name
The following quotes about vision will certainly spur you to action:
- “A vision is not just a picture of what could be; it is an appeal to our better selves, a call to become something more.” – Rosabeth Moss Kanter
- “Vision without execution is delusion” – Thomas A Edison
- “Vision without action is merely a dream. Action without vision just passes the time. Vision with action can change the world.” – Joel A. Barker
Beloved, there is power in vision! Are you ready to change the world? Do you want to make this world a better place for everyone? Do you want to leave this world better than you met it? It is high time you begin to run with your vision. You have stayed too long in that valley of indecision. It is time to add action. Run with that vision. Pursue that goal. Do your part and God will do his own part. The Bible says:
“Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes; for thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.” Isaiah 54:2-3 KJV
Are you ready to run with your vision? There is someone that can help you. He is the way maker, the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. Allow Him to be at the beginning of your vision and run with Him to the end. Allow Jesus into the boat of your life. Accept Him today as your Lord and Saviour and it shall be well with you.
Once again, happy new month. May you run with your vision to make it reality in Jesus Mighty name.
Stay blessed
