TOPIC:  WANTED! A MAN OF VISION.  FRIDAY AUGUST 25

TEXT:  NEHEMIAH 1:3-11

KEY VERSE: “And I arose in the night, I and some few men with me; neither told I any man what my God had put in my heart to do at Jerusalem: neither was there any beast with me, save the beast that I rode upon.” (Nehemiah 2:12).

God is seeking for men of vision. A man of vision is a leader of himself, his house and of a group of people placed under him. A visionary man is a man of direction and energy. He may fall but will rise again because of the passion burning inside. He has a destination. He finds it too hard to give up on a right course. He believes he is able. At last, nature makes way for him.  Opposition and his foes bow out of his way. He overcomes and achieves his dreams and is counted among the heroes of life. A godly visionary man seeks the fullness of God, prepares his family for spiritual fullness and liberty, and the church for true spirituality and fruitfulness.  May the Lord make us men and women of vision.

   

‘'Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the father of lights, with whom there is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.”

A vision is a message received by the heart concerning what to do and how to do it. It is a meaningful spiritual knowledge, understanding or wisdom obtained from the Lord.  A vision is an important divine idea imparted to the mind. It is the key to success and breakthrough. It is the route to the will of God. Vision gives direction and energy. It comes from what is seen, heard, read or felt.  It is an idea dropped into the mind. It is the excitement of thought. The Lord answers our prayers mostly through vision, injecting an idea. Visions can be received or rejected, nursed or starved to death. It takes labour, resources and wisdom to achieve a vision.

Vision normally draws sufficient grace from God and the help of man for accomplishment. But it takes a man of faith to believe his visions and to work on them. Has God put an idea in your heart concerning how you can be saved completely from sin? How to pray through to sanctification and holiness? How you can be delivered from sickness and Satan? How you can be employed? How you can be more evangelistic? How to rise to greater achievement? Pursue it. Ask for His help and wisdom of achievement. “And I arose in the night, I and some few men with me; neither told I any man what my God had put in my heart to do at Jerusalem: neither was there any beast with me, save the beast that I rode upon.” (Nehemiah 2:12).

Thought for the day:  Without a vision, there is no future.

Song for the day: Open my eyes o Lord.

Bible reading for the day: Psalm 124-127; 1 Corinthians 7:1-24
