Good evening and welcome to day 12 of 50 days.
When I was in high school I learned about a biblical principle called Death of a Vision. Pastor Bill Gothard shared with us in his Basic Youth Conflicts seminar that time and time again in the bible we see that God gives a vision that must die before it ultimately is fulfilled. While we may agree this makes for an exciting moving or play it also makes for a stressful and sometimes disappointing life. God gives you an idea or a gift. All seems well until the death event comes. Your relationship went south or you had healing only to get sick again or you get a dream job only to find out that your new boss is a demon.
Your faith in God must be bigger than the death of your vision. I want to make sure you get what I’m saying. Only a faith that is bigger than our problems will take us through the death of our vision to it’s final glorious realization.
Joseph dreams that he will be honored with others bowing to him. But he is sold into slavery. It looks like things are getting better when he gets thrown into prison. It looks like things will get better when he gives the meaning of a dream to the kings butler but then he forgets about him for 2 years. Finally God elevates him.
Daniel went through a lion’s den. The three hebrews went through the fire. The shunamite woman prays for a son and receives him only for him to die. But the prophet brought him back to life.
There are somethings you are believing God for but will not come to pass without some death. Do you believe past the death that you see?
If not you can tell Jesus “Help thou mine unbelief!”
I don’t know why I’ve had to cry brought to my knees time and time again but I can promise you this. Jesus specializes in resurrection!
This has been day 12 of 50 days of revelation. I look forward to meeting you tomorrow!
Good night and hold on until your change comes!
