Do not live without vision!

My greetings to you, dear friends! I bless you this day!

I thank the Lord for the words that He speaks to us daily to edify us, to strengthen our spiritual walk and to help us move forward.

Today I would like to share with you a word about building or constructing your future.
The truth is that we are a product of what we see. In order for us to reach any goals in life, we have to first see (visualize or imagine) them. So many people do not advance and move forward because of the lack of vision; they only live in the ‘now’. Very often people do not have any future plans; they do not have a clue of what goals they want to reach in this life.

The Bible says,

 „Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint” (Proverbs, 29:18).

This verse of Scripture tells us that without a revelation from above, without a vision and an understanding of where we are going, without the understanding from the Lord about our future, – we become unrestrained.

In a different translation of the Bible this verse says that without vision people perish. It means that if we do not have a plan from the Lord, based on His revelation for our lives, then we will wander aimlessly without purpose or direction and eventually decline.

Without a plan and a revelation, life becomes senseless and goes ‘down the hill’. We must catch the vision from the Lord for our families, ministry, and work – in fact, for all the spheres of our lives. This is the will of God for us, and it is also the beginning of a blessed and a great future for us. The future belongs to those who have vision.

So the word of Lord for you is: do not live without vision! Trust God, pray and receive the vision from above for your life.
God bless you today!

Till tomorrow!
Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

  • What are the grounds or foundations of favour? II

    Through faith in Jesus Christ we become clothed in his righteousness and nature. In the our spirit we have the perfect character of the Almighty God even though we do not become perfect in our actions immediately after becoming followers of Jesus. We reflect God’s life, character and thoughts more and more in our lives to that extent to which we submit ourselves to the new nature in our spirit. Our daily submission to God’s nature and character in us is what I call practical righteousness that qualifies us for God’s favour.

  • God desires to give you true success

    As we said before, a successful person is the one who knows what God wants him to do in his life and has dedicated his life for doing God’s will. Human success is not measured by his social status, banc accounts, and influence in society, popularity or fame in this world. True success is measured by how successful he has been in doing God’s will.Think about it today! God desires to give you true success that can be found in learning and doing God’s will for your life. You are the one who determines what to do with your life: either seeking temporary pleasure and enjoyment or seeking the eternal values of God’s Kingdom and His will for your life.

  • Changes mean working hard persistently II

    While growing up and changing we will see how we become more patient. Patience is a fruit of the Spirit God wants to be visible in your life. Therefore, God sometimes permits conflicts in your life, to help you with developing the fruit of patience. God desires to trample our pride thus transforming us into likeness of loving, persevere Christ. You are still arrogant if you show resentment at nonsense. God desires to help you to get rid of this arrogance. That´s why He allows people to do wrong to us. God is trying to teach us how to handle such situations, so that we are able to build relationships with people as His representatives on this Earth. Everything God permits in our life works together for good if we let Him mould us.

  • If you desire to experience God´s power and His mercy in your life, make fellowship and love to God priorities for your life!

    Yesterday we spoke about how we can experience God´s power and mercy in our life. It fully depends on how deep we dedicate ourselves to Him. Once we realise we are not living for ourselves but for One who died for us, we discover the source of the unlimited power and mercy of God.However, submission to God doesn´t mean doing everything that comes to your mind. Contrariwise, it makes us responsible for getting to know what God bears in His heart regarding His will to our life. For this reason you have to submit yourself in whole to the Lord in order to have fellowship with Him as a source of inspiration, freshness and guidance. Everybody who experienced His power in his life and became a tool of His mercy constantly submitted himself to the Lord.
