TOPIC: PRODUCE SONS MEMORISE :  Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient towards all men. 1 Thessalonians 5:14 READ : Philemon 1:10-18 10 I beseech thee for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my bonds: 11 Which in time past was to thee unprofitable, but now profitable to thee and to me: 12 Whom I have sent again: thou therefore receive him, that is, mine own bowels: 13 Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered unto me in the bonds of the gospel: 14 But without thy mind would I do nothing; that thy benefit should not be as it were of necessity, but willingly. 15 For perhaps he therefore departed for a season, that thou shouldest receive him for ever; 16 Not now as a servant, but above a servant, a brother beloved, specially to me, but how much more unto thee, both in the flesh, and in the Lord? 17 If thou count me therefore a partner, receive him as myself. 18 If he ...

VISIONS OF GOD Friday 7 December 2012


Memorise:
And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God.
Acts 7:56

Read:
Mark 1:9-11

If the doors of Heaven are open to you, you will most likely see visions of God like Ezekiel (Ezekiel 1:1). What you see affects you in tremendous ways. Many people are in hell today because of what they saw. They are now regretting seeing what they saw. The progress or otherwise of many people is as a result of what they saw. If you see heavenly visions, your mind will be more focused on Heaven, pleasing God and working for your crown and other rewards. When you see the visions of God, you will become ambitious about becoming great in the Kingdom that never ends. What are you seeing? Where are you looking at?

In Acts 7:56-60 when Stephen looked up, he saw the visions of God the Son. Even though he was in the midst of enemies who were about to stone him to death for his faith, what he saw took away every bit of fear from him. He was full of boldness seeing Heaven standing up for him. When you see the visions of God, persecution will lose its power and devastating effects in your life. You will no longer care who is watching and who is not. You will not care about the sufferings, hunger, denial or difficulty you are going through. Oh! There is so much that God wants to release to us from Heaven but only very few people are looking up. In Mark 1:10, when Jesus was baptised, He looked up and saw the Heavens opened and He saw the vision of the Holy Spirit. His life was never the same. The silence over His life suddenly became a thing of the past. Earlier, we heard of His birth heralded by an angelic choir. Later, when He was older, the wise men visited Him from the east. Then when He was 12, He was forgotten in Jerusalem but was later found in the temple reasoning intelligently with the doctors of the law (Luke 2:1-52). After He returned home with His parents, there was a silence of about 18 years. After He saw the vision of the Holy Spirit, that silence was forever broken. His ministry took off in power and within about 3½ years; He accomplished what many cannot do in 10 life times. When you see the visions of God, your ministry will take a new turn.

Prayer point:
Father, give me a revelation of Yourself capable of sealing my fate in Heaven.
 
Bible in one year
Jeremiah 17-20
