EMPOWERED VISION 05 - VISION IS AN ‘EXPO’ INTO WHAT YOU ARE THAT IS INSIDE OF YOU THAT IS YET TO COME INTO REALITY.

Mike Murdock says "What you love is a clue to something you contain" and I dare say, what you contain (inside of you) is a clue your vision. The things that are inside of you are pointers to whom you are; or whom you ought to be; the vision of you.  

“You must decide if you are going to rob the world or bless it with the rich, valuable, potent, untapped resources locked away within you.” ― Myles Munroe, Understanding Your Potential

If God were to give you a slight peep into who you really are, you will be stunned with amazement and you won't be able to sleep, i can guarantee. 

Most times there is the need to see & know the vision of who we truly are, in other words, to see your real self. Vision is the ability to see your real self. 

When God created you He put a vision in you and thats who you truly are and not the faz (whim) or false life you are made to see on the outside.

You must have heard of this statement of fact "while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen; for the things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are not seen are eternal" (2 Corinthians 4:18). So, Vision is an ‘expo’ into what you are that is inside of you that is yet to come into reality or manifestation. It is in seeing those things that are deep / eternal inside of you, that you discover your vision.

“People think that their dream is outside of them. So they go looking for prophets – wanting somebody to prophesy to them". 

God hid your future in a place where He knew you couldn’t miss it. He hid it within you.

Vision is the insight into what God has in plan for you. In Jeremiah 29:11, God reveals his mind towards us "For I know the plans that I have for you, (declares the Lord) plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope. God has given you a future, a plan for your life and that's your vision. The vision of you. 

Vision really is God exposing the true potentials of your life to you in the midst of your present situation/conditions.

In Judges 6:12, the Angel called Gideon "A Mighty Man Of Valour (mighty warrior)" but gideon thought otherwise, he was dazed with amazement in contradictions to what the angel said even though it became obvious that the angel was addressing whom Gideon really was.

In a similar account (in Luke 1:26-30), The Angel Gabriel hailed Mary (the mother of Jesus) as "The Favored One", but Mary was greatly troubled at his statement, and kept pondering what kind of salutation that was.  

The truth is that God always sees us in the vision He created us.

When we catch and run with the vision of our lives, we will become unstoppable.

You have being created to do more. Vision here is an eye-opener

I will love to end with a story and this quote from Oprah Winfrey (paraphrased) "THERE IS A VISION FOR YOUR LIFE THAT IS GREATER THAN YOUR IMAGINATION"

A beggar once approached a little boy who was an artist to make a painting of him. The little boy agreed and went on to paint the beggar but never reflected the beggar's present conditions or appearance. The little artist painted the (same) beggar on a corporate suit, designer white shirt, with a pair of gucci glasses, Bruno Magli shoes, a versace embossed leather belt & versace genuine leather watch. The man in the painting had his hair neatly cut and kept with 'wet lips' along his neatly arranged eye brow. The beggar stood speechless for minutes in awe (wonder) at the vision the little artist-boy had of him.

May God reveal to you the true vision of who you are.

EMPOWERED VISION 03 - VISION IS THE MENTAL PICTURE OF TOMORROW!

Do you have in your mind a clear picture of what your tomorrow is? Your vision must be clear as crystal not vague. A vague vision is not a good one; there are times where a vision may not be totally clear but it gradually unfolds. This is called a vision in process (many of us are in that state). Two things worthy of note is that Vision is not static & that vision is mentally visible (first & always), conceivable, (vision can be visualized).                                         

Do you have a clear cut picture of your vision? When you have clear cut vision in life/business, you have taking the first step out or away from obscurity/insignificance. It's when you've settled in clear terms what your vision is that you can then commit to paper, having a real genuine & meaningful Vision Statement.
