VISION

 

1 Timothy 4:13--Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine.

Acts 13:2

--As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them.

1 Timothy 4:15--Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all.

Psalms 127:1

--Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.

Proverbs 19:21

--There are many devices in a man's heart; nevertheless the counsel of the Lord, that shall stand.

Acts 16:9

--And a vision appeared to Paul in the night; There stood a man of Macedonia, and prayed him, saying, Come over into Macedonia, and help us.

Proverbs 29:18

--Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he

Habakkuk 2:2--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.

 

 

 

 

Never allow what you see (your vision) be limited to current circumstances.

Spiritual vision is given from above due to purpose and destiny for your existence.

When circumstances seem to or attempt to cloud your view,

find a Word 'seed' of promise for you to plant in what may seem like a barren time.

There may be times of 

CHALLENGES

UNCERTAINTIES

FRUSTRATION

FEARS

SADNESS

.....and DISAPPOINTMENTS

Sometimes they are weeds attempting to choke out your seed.

At other times, they themselves can be seeds of preparation... that can be used.

Water your promises, dreams, visions, ... with faith, and allow God to grow them into existence ... of the destiny and purpose for which He created you...

with spiritual encouragement and power for your journey to times of refreshing and fulfillment.

One of the most important aspects of success is the ability to visualize your path

and stay focused on the lighted path to your dreams, aspirations, callings, etc until you reach them.

Establishing, or identifying your vision or life's purpose is the first step.

 

 

 

 

 

"Not with his eyes but with His vision"

 

"Life just seems so full of connections. Most of the time
we don't even pay attention to the depth of life.
We only see flat surfaces."

"To see what is in front of one's nose
needs a constant struggle."

"The art of being wise is the art of knowing what to overlook."

"I go to nature to be soothed and healed, and to have my senses put in order."

"Never lose an opportunity of seeing anything that is beautiful,
for beauty is God's handwriting -- a wayside sacrament.
Welcome it in every fair face, in every fair sky, in every flower,
and thank God for it as a cup of blessing."

"If you go as far as you can see,
you will then see enough to go even farther."

 

"Our visions begin with our desires."
