A True Vision Fulfilled!


‘A True Vision Fulfilled.’
a) Romans 15:25. I must go to Jerusalem to take a gift to the believers there. This vision was not for Paul’s benefit but for the Lord’s Glory and the benefit of poor Believers in Jerusalem.
b) Acts 19:21. Apostle Paul resolved in the Holy Spirit. This was a Vision from God. Not his own idea.
c) Acts 20:22. Apostle Paul was constrained by the Holy Spirit in this Vision. He was not even sure what was going to happen to him in Jerusalem.
d) Acts 21:15; 24:17. A True Vision has to be well prepared for.
e) Romans 15:31. Apostle Paul needed God’s Protection from Jewish unbelievers who were out to destroy him and his genuine desire was to give acceptable service to the True Believers.

‘Choose Your Friends Carefully.’
Proverbs 18:24.
a) In TNIV: “One who has unreliable friends soon comes to ruin.”
b) In NLT: “There are ‘friends’ who destroy each other.”
c) In ESV: “A man of many companions may come to ruin.”
d) In HCSB: “A man with many friends may be harmed.”
(Through this Second one I want to Choose My Friends Carefully)

A True Vision has to be well prepared for. There may be years of preparation before a True Vision can show signs of beginning to be visibly coming to pass. Sometimes there will be several years of study and training to make the vision something viable and real. Sometimes there will be the careful selection of the team, if a team is needed for the execution of the Vision. Always a True Vision is bathed in Prayer. A True Vision is never a hasty thing.
