VISION MAKES THE DIFFERENCE - Part 1.

Prov. 29:18:- Where there id no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he".

Vision is a devine insight. It is a mental picture of an outward outcome. God's vision to you is a covenant binding you to God. Your vision is your plan, your goal, your hope, your desire, your picture of the future. Your vision is what you seeahead, and that visionis controlling how your life seed grows and what bring forth in your life.

Do you have a vision, dream or insight into your future? Your vision is a foresight with insight based on hindsight. it is seeing ahead with your own eyes to the future. It is seeing the invisible and making it visible. Joseph saw a vision of his future and made it visible by telling his brethren. Vision is an informed bridge from the present to the future. It is the purpose of your existence and God's purpose and task for you.

Vision is your God-given idea. God's vision for your life is like a finger print, there is no other one exactly like it. Without vision, there is nothing to strive for, no goal to pursue, no dream to realize and no success to achieve.

The whole process of life begins and ends with desire to achieve and attain. Vision is also called dreams or goals. God doesn't grant wishes but desires. To achieve and attain ones desire in life, you must set goals. You must define in clear terms what you want. It is obvious that goal setting is a product of planning. Success is planned. It is a deliberate effort. Wishes don't produce result but deliberate plan of action towards success produce the result called success. No one can succeed outside vision.

A life without vision is like a purposeless, focusless, wandering personality. It is like torchlight without batteries; willing but powerless. If there is no vision guiding your life, you are an aimless wanderer, a pilot without compass, a house without building plan.

THE MINISTRY

Joy to the world, for the Lord is come, let men receive her song. Let everyone, prepare him room, and let Heaven and nature sing to His Holy name for in time like this, the psalmist recognised the lordship of our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ and noted, "I will sing unto the Lord for He is godd and His mercies endureth forever. For the Lord is merciful and full of grace. Let all the earth make a joyful noise unto His name".

Today has presented to you and me a lie question that do not desire an urgent response but a gradual one as God continue to give you and I the grace to continue on thid earth. What is this question? Remember the Lord made us to know that all have sinned and come short of His glory, yet he allowed us to have salvation as the promise to bring men back to himself was fulfilled through one man - JESUS, who came to die for the remission of our sins. Without considering this, man has continually live in sin as if it is worth perpetuity. However, the Lord had asked, "shall we continue in sin and that the grace of God abounds?" Terribly NO. As the Bible has given us a choice good enough to bring us to his presence daily.

Today, we do no longer think a more brighter way to adore God in his majesty because of our inability to realise our sinful nature, hence the worship we render to God is like Cains. Can we look into our lives, re-examine ourselfs, seek God vehemently as christians today so the our lost glory in Him will be restored, then and then alone can we give a prospective worship to the Lord our God.
