A lot of people have “sight” but have no “Vision”
You got to learn to see in the dark what your creator told you in the light!
Anyone who did anything great in life had a vision.
How do you create the vision Habakkuk 2:2/3 – And the Lord answered
and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that it can be read on the run. This vision-message is a witness pointing to what’s coming. It aches for the coming—it can hardly wait! And it doesn’t lie. If it seems slow in coming, wait. It's on its way. It will come at the right time
Having vision is your guide
It’s your whyIts your navigation
systemMindsight vs.
eyesight (seeing is believing or is it?)
Hebrews 11:1-2 – what is faith? It is the confident assurance that what we hope for is going to happen. It’s the evidence of things we cannot yet see. God gave his approval to the people of old because of there FAITH.
You have to Trust him unconditionally! Most people don’t.
How do you get this “FAITH”? You must renew your mind Phil 4:8-9 “Summing it all up, friends, I'd say you'll
do best by filling your minds and meditating on things true, noble, reputable, authentic, compelling, gracious—the best, not the worst; the beautiful, not the ugly; things to praise, not things to curse. Put into practice what you learned from me, what you heard and saw and realized. Do that, and God, who makes everything work together, will work you into his most excellent harmonies.”
“I am” responsible for your life? Prov 24:12 – “don’t try to avoid responsibility by
saying you didn’t know about it. For God knows all hearts and he sees you. He keeps watch over your soul, and he knows you knew! And he will judge ALL people according to what they have done”
Prov 12:24 – “work hard and become a leader, be lazy and be a slave”
You got to be a game changer, the earlier the better.
How do you do it? Personal development, information changes situation—
not environment!
