I came to Canada in December 2000 to get a Masters of Engineering in Electrical and Computer Engineering. How did I end up as a pastor? How did I decided to leave all that training to pursue Ministry? How then did I decide to continue to earn money on the side as a BiVo Minister?
In this episode of the BiVo Podcast, I answer the question of how to capture your God-given vision by sharing my own story.
But the Lord said to him, “Go, for he is a chosen vessel of Mine to bear My name before Gentiles, kings, and the children of Israel. Act 9:15
Our Lord Jesus Christ has a vision of bringing the Kingdom of God to earth and reconciling God’s lost children back to Him. It is this vision that we plug into.
Receiving your God-given vision is, therefore, finding out how you will contribute to this vision that our Lord Jesus Christ has. How do you see yourself in the big picture of what our Lord Jesus is doing?
Here are a few pointers
- Develop a deep-seated desire to please God with your whole life (Jesus has the original vision)
- Be convinced that whatever God desires for your life is the best that you can ever be.
- Spend time in Prayer and Fasting to verify and confirm the direction that you have received in your heart.
- Confirm the Holy Spirit’s direction with your spouse, other family members, pastor, and God-loving friends.
- Receive the courage to take the first steps as well as the courage to continue.
- Have respect for others who have gone ahead with a similar vision, and learn from them or their materials.
- Consistently spend time in Prayer and Fasting for direction as the details of the vision unfold.
- Enjoy the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ as He works things out within the vision.
