VISION No.1
Prov 29:18
" where there is no vision the People perish."
NASB "People are unrestrained"
Perish = "PARA" = to go it alone
= to cease to refrain
= to let go restraint
Introduction
1 Sam. 3:1 "no open vision"
Zech. 4:1-2 "What seeist thou"
Habak. 2:1-2 "Write the vision---Wait for it"
I. Vision must be based on the purpose of God
1. Focus on God's purpose. Phil.3:13-14 "press toward the
mark" "SKOPOS" = like a dove Single purpose vision
= eagles eyes telescopic and
microscopic
2. God's purpose found in the covenants
= Gen 1:28-29 John. 15:
= Relationship = worship v.2 fruit
= character = integrity v.2 more fruit
= growth = multiply v.5 Much fruit
= subdue = warfare v.16 fruit
= dominion = rulership that remain
3. necessary ingredients
= biblically accurate
= balanced
= progressive
= obedience e.g. 2 Chr.7:14 "if my people turn"
II Vision shapes destiny
1. Noah = saw it, was compelled Gen. 6:7, Heb. 11:7
2. Abraham = saw it, had to leave Gen. 11:22, Heb. 11:8-11
3. Moses = saw bush, destiny was determined Exod. 1-6,
Heb. 11:22-27
4. Nehemiah = saw it, his job was in jeopardy Neh. 1:1-5
III. Vision destroyers
check Num. 13:28-31 underline the "never the less"
a. magnifies the problem instead of the vision.
b. magnifies the power of the enemy.
1. Num. 13:28-31 = wrong perspective
2. Num. 13:32 = wavering faith
3. Num. 13:33 = grasshopper complex
4. Num. 14:4 = retreat mentality
5. Num. 14:1-10 = Blame shifting
