LISTEN TO TODAY’S DEVOTIONAL

GUIDELINES FOR A GODLY VISION

1. Born of God and supported by His word: the bible should CONFIRM your dreams not conflict with it.
2. Must be balanced: your vision should take into consideration every aspect of your life.
3. Must be part of your heart (you have a passion for it): If your heart is not in something I’d question long and hard if it’s really from God. God gives the passion and drive to to see you through the vision.
4. Must be concise, clear, and plain (yet compelling and exciting) The more complicated the vision the harder it will be to stay focused.

HOW TO KEEP THE VISION

1. Write it down: visualize it, think about it often and read it out loud daily.
2. Thank God for it: for giving you the privilege of having a vision.
3. Remember the vision: when you have stumbling blocks and obstacles; remember God gave you the vision before those obstacles!
4. Imagine how many lives will be touched: by you living out your God given vision

PERSONAL APPLICATION

Write out your personal vision for your life, business, or ministry

TODAY’S SCRIPTURES

Ecclesiastes 7:16-18 Do not be over-righteous, neither be over-wise—why destroy yourself? Do not be over-wicked, and do not be a fool, why die before your time? It is good to grasp the one and not let go of the other. Whoever fears God will avoid all extremes.

Ecclesiastes 9:10 (NIV) Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might, for in the realm of the dead, where you are going, there is neither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom.

Habakkuk 2:2 (NIV) Then the Lord replied: “Write down the revelation and make it plain on tablets so that a herald may run with it.

Psalm 119:105 (NIV) Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.

Proverbs 3:6 (NIV) in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.
