WRITE THE VISION!




Write the Vision

     Habukkuk says, "And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the Vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that reads it. 3. 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." 

     You may say, "What Vision?' The one God your Creator gives you. You have to know and believe he is "your" Creator. Do you know who your Creator is? It is God Almighty- The Creator of Heaven and Earth! The one who some people ignore and try to live their lives without him, but not realize that in the end, they will perish. Proverbs 29:18 says, "Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keeps the law, happy is he."

     It is really sad how some people not only ignore God and try to live their lives without him, but they also disrespect, mock, and ridicule him. People, you must realize you will perish without God. He is not only the Creator of Heaven and Earth but all things. Including your very own breath! He is the one in control of your very own heartbeat, right now! Not your doctor! God is in control of that! Don't you think you need to get to know him being is, he is the one in control and knows when your heart will beat its last beat and knows when you will take your last breath?

     I know some of you have had earthly Dad's that were abusive to you. They have probably broken their promises to you over and over and acted like they didn't want you, and actually, they were not acting. Let's face it, they didn't want you! You cramped their style. Yes, it hurts! I know how it is. I have been there. It may sound cold and heartless of me to say it like that, but it is true. You gotta see, that your Earthly Dad was just used by God as a vehicle to get you here! God did not expect you to put your earthly dad first over him! God did not expect you to put all of your trust in life into your earthly, fleshly dad, who is a sinner just like we all are.

     God says there is only one worthy of our whole trust and that is his only begotten son Jesus Christ. Jesus is the only one worthy to put our trust into! Your Dad, my Dad are not perfect and neither are we. There was only one perfect one that walked the face of this earth and that was Jesus Christ, our Savior! He is the only one worthy of our total devotion and our total focus. Don't get me wrong, loyalty to your fellow man is definitely important. It is a good and respectable thing to be a loyal person, but if you don't get loyalty back from one single person on the face of this earth, we cannot let it devastate us to where we go through life with "Daddy Issues".

     Seriously, You don't have no time to waste on this earth! We have one life and that is all. Stop focusing on the past about your earthly dad and start getting to know your Creator! He will be your Heavenly Father if you realize you are a sinner in need of being born again, Romans 3:23 says, "For all have sinned, and come short of the Glory of God." We are all born sinners in need of a Savior, who is Jesus Christ!

     The bible says, "No man can come to the Father unless he draws them." The fact that you are reading this now proves that God is drawing you to himself. He Loves You So Much! He sent Jesus to die for your sins and the sins of the whole world. Think about that! Think how much love that must've been. God sent his only son Jesus to die for you! Would you send your Son to go to a cruel place to be mocked, scorned, killed by cruel men, and watch him die on a cross, a horrible, cruel death? I couldn't! But God did it for you and me. Knowing one day you would love him back just as passionately as he did for you!

     See, God had Faith in You! Did your Earthly Dad ever tell you that he has "Faith" in you? Did he ever tell you he was proud of you? Not too many Dad's tell their children they are proud of them, even after they have grown. I didn't hear it from my earthly Dad, but when I heard that God my Heavenly Father was Proud of me and He had Faith in "Me", it made me so happy! I felt like I was already in Heaven. Nobody had ever told me they were proud of me! But God did. And you know when it is all said and done, that is all that is going to matter.

     We need to get over our "selves' and start living and being what we are created to be, and that is a "Worshiper" of God! It takes spending time with God and getting to know him and his ways. God says in Isaiah 55:8 "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, says the Lord. 9. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts." You can't know God unless you spend time with him, but you have to be "born again" first. See, we are all born sinners until we realize that and know we personally need a Savior and ask Jesus to come into our heart and take over our life. Revelation 3:19-22 Jesus says, "As many as I love, 'rebuke (point out faults) and 'chastise (correct); be zealous therefore and repent. 20. Behold, I stand at the door and knock, if any man hears my voice, and open the door, I will come into him and will sup with him, and he with me. 21. To him that 'overcomes (wins the victory) will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. 22. He that hath an ear let him hear what the Spirit says unto the churches."

     Isn't that exciting? When you invite Jesus in, God is your Heavenly Father! You will have Peace, Joy, Love, Happiness in your heart. You want to feel accepted by someone? I mean real acceptance. Not the kind of acceptance you have with your so-called friends. Believe me, I know this. Your friends and sometimes your own family will stab you in the back, but God will never do that! He will cover you and fight for you and as Paul says in Romans 8:31 "What shall we then say to these things? If God 'be (is) for us, who can be against us?" I encourage you to pray and ask Jesus to come into your heart and to forgive you of your sins and to fill you with His precious Holy Spirit so you can know God better. God promises to give you his Holy Spirit as your helper, and God keeps his promises! Peter says in Acts 2:38 "Then Peter said unto them, Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ 'for (unto) the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. 39. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord God shall call. 40. And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this 'untoward (crooked) generation." 

Read also John 3:1-21 to gain a greater understanding of being "born" again. Give Jesus your life and he will give you a fresh new start for your life and he will show you what your purpose for being here on this earth is. He will give you a fresh vision. God Bless You!
