Nothing just happens, there are things that make things to happen, for every action there will always be a reaction. This is also true when it comes to vision, when you have a vision there are things that it will do for you, vision will never leave you the way you are or where you are, the impacts vision will have on you are enormous, but below are 6 things vision will definitely do for you.
1. Vision Provokes Decision: The more you see where you are going, the more poised and consented you are willing to get there; you cannot see it clear and still remain there. In Genesis 13:14-18, the Bible said, “And the Lord said unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou art northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward: For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed forever. Then Abram removed his tent, and came and dwelt in the plain of Mamre, which is in Hebron, and built there an altar unto the lord”.
Abram would’ve remained where he was if not for what he saw. His decision to remove his tent and move was provoked and by the vision of the land which he saw. Austin Ayoosu in his book “THE POWER OF DECISION” said..,
“Everything in life starts and ends with decision” — Austin Ayoosu
To be able to make such decisions vision must be in place, decision is only possible when vision is available, and the nature of the visions you embrace, determines the structure of the decisions you make. The reason you are still where you are, and have not decided, is because you have not seen what you need see that would spur you make the decision to be there.
2. Vision Enhances Motion: Nothing impends motion like the lack of vision; you can’t see it and not move swiftly to seize it. One of the major reasons why people move sluggishly in life is because of the lack of vision; you need to see where you are going clearly. The clearer you see where you are going the faster you will get there. In one of my previous post, “The Place of Vision” I said that,
“Vision is the secret behind a life of passion; it motivates people to go through life with force.”
Your speed will be accelerated, if you are seeing where you are going clearly, conversely your speed will always be reduced when where you are going is not clear, concerning Abram in Genesis 12:9, the Bible said.., “And Abram journeyed, going on still toward the south”. He enjoyed a steady and uninterrupted motion void of any obstruction, because he saw where he was going clearly.
3. Vision Determines Direction: There are many ways, but not all leads to where you want to go, there are many plans, patterns, and strategies, yet not all can produce the result you expect. There is a vivid direction that leads to the attainment of your goal. Vision-less people are directionless people, and directionless people can never be successful in life.
“Efforts and courage are not enough without purpose and direction”— Anonymous
God told Abram to “walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it” this speaks about direction, a definite and specific way which God wanted him to go, where you see determines where you walk, confusion in life is as a result of the lack of direction. You must see where you want to go in order to get there. To be continued! Join Steemit and shear your thoughts with me.
