Knowing God's vision.


"And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, …"
Acts 2:17
One of the things that the Holy Spirit came to do in our lives is to enable us to see visions. The Holy Spirit came to give us a vision for our lives. That is why as a young person it is important you are able to get a hold of God's vision for your life from an early age.
The Bible says in Proverbs 29:18, "Where there is no vision, the people perish: …" This means that living without a vision is like dying without knowing. This is because your life will lack meaning without vision.
How do you know that you have gotten God's vision for your life? You know you have gotten God's vision for your life when you know God's plan and purpose for your life, because vision is a revelation of God's plan and purpose for your life.
God's plan means what God wants to do with your life. God's purpose means why God wants to carry out His plan in your life. So if I find out God's vision for my life, it means that I know what God wants to do in my life
and why. That gives meaning to your life. Also, if you want to be ahead in life, then you must know why you were born.
Knowing God's plan and purpose for your life also gives you a sense of identity and self value, because if God has a plan and purpose for your birth it means that you are important and significant to God.
Prayer.
Dear Father I thank you for giving to me the Spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of you and your plan and purpose for my life in Jesus Name. Amen.
For further study read:
Jeremiah 1:4-5, Galatians 1:15-16, Romans 8:28-30.
Doing the Word
Measure your success based on the fulfilment of God's vision for your life and not based on the life or achievement of somebody else.
