Who can have vision? You can have vision. Vision occurs between your ears and about 18 inches below in your heart, a heart vision that happens inside of you.
In Prov. 29:18 is says, “Where there is no vision, the people perish.” So, the opposite would be that where this is vision, the people live and flourish, they come alive. Who can have a vision or can have vision? If you ask, “Can I have vision?” The answer is yes. Everyone can have insight, revelation, and vision of something that needs to be fulfilled so that people can flourish.
You might be the only one who see the vision and if you see it then it is your thing, your responsibility, your place to see that the vision comes alive. If the vision is unexpected then research it because what if it came from God? We often times think that vision is given to a select few and we aren’t one of the few. But you are not doing the selecting, God selects. And doesn’t always chose those who are most qualified or strongest. Consider Gideon who was from the lowest family in the lowest tribe of Israel and God called him a mighty warrior.
When you think of visionaries you think of people who are out front, leading, telling the story but everyone has a story to tell. Too many times we rationalize away that story or put ourselves down so we don’t share our story often. The bible says that we should be built up therefore in the most holy faith so that we can fulfill the call that God has put on our lives.
Don’t put yourself in any spot where Satan can kill, steal, or destroy your vision. God has given you a vision for something and that something is most likely for right where you are at. Don’t let fear keep you from taking action on your vision.
Would God give a vision to someone He knows probably won’t act on the vision? God is a believer and the only thing that pleases Him is faith. He is never lacking in it. He is so ready to give out and bless people with so much and vision is one of the greatest blessings because it gives inspiration and encouragement. He wants to give vision and purpose so we can live our lives to their fullest measure. If you get a vision then you can think, God believes in me enough to give me this information and insight. Everyone needs to say, “I can have vision!”
The next thing you need to do after you receive the vision is to write it down. Hab. 2:2 says to write down the vision. Don’t take it lightly. Think about it, write is down, pray about it, say it out loud, and share it with people. Get it clear, make it plain and defined so it becomes a part of your life. Refine it and add to it if necessary. Thoughts disentangle themselves when they flow through the lips and on to the finger tips.
You need to make it plain so that a runner can run with it. Think of businesses that have started in a person’s garage. Giving it to a runner who gets the vision might either mean you are the runner or the vision is so large that you need others to run with you or for you. They do the work and make it happen. They lay out steps in sequence that are needed to complete the vision. Man plans but God directs.
Robin shares a vision God showed her about how God placed her in a specific department at work to witness to those people around her. Once she saw the vision it inspired her to go to work and it gave her purpose and direction to what she thought was an ordinary job in her ordinary life. God had entrusted her to witness to those people and it gave her a responsibility to live her life well in front of them. A vision can be for right where you are, it is not always a grandiose assignment. This simple vision brought life and brought Robin to a flourishing place.
God wants to give vision to every one of His children so they can come alive and so others can join in to. And that includes you.
