The Price of Vision

Sunday, July 13th, 2008

Verse: “In the year that king Uzziah dies, I saw also the Lord.” – Isaiah 6:1

Quote: “It must be God first, God second, and God third, until the life is faced steadily with God and no one else is of any account whatever.”

Friends are an amazing blessing and can continually point you towards God, but sometimes God will remove people from your life to help you see Him more clearly.  No matter how godly a person is, or healthy your relationship is with them, God Himself must remain top priority in your life.

Vision and Reality

Sunday, July 6th, 2008

Verse: “And the parched ground shall become a pool.” – Isaiah 35:7

Quote: “If you have ever had the vision of God, you may try as you like to be satisfied on a lower level, but God will never let you.”

The parched ground is who we are as fallen creatures, the pool is our potential–who God wants us to be.  Not only does God have a vision for us, He also has the means to help us accomplish that vision and fulfill our role in His kingdom.  We have to take that vision and make it a reality by choosing to obey God’s leading.  Vision without actuality is a breeding ground for Satan’s attack.  Live out what God puts in.  Accomplish the visions He’s given you.
