Proverbs 29:18 Where there is no prophetic vision the people cast off restraint, but blessed is he who keeps the law.(ESV) VISION

VISION REBRIEF Vision is the ability to see the results and consequences in the future of the course of action I take today. Deu 28:1-2 " And if you faithfully obey the voice of the LORD your God, being careful to do all his commandments that I command you today, the LORD your God will set you high above all the nations of the earth. And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, if you obey the voice of the LORD your God. Deu 28:15 " But if you will not obey the voice of the LORD your God or be careful to do all his commandments and his statutes that I command you today, then all these curses shall come upon you and overtake you. Vision comes from belief and the strength of belief/faith determines the strength of the vision. Vision is not abstract or simply an idea that we come up with. It is the result of personal conviction that we develop over the course of our life.

REBRIEF CONT Vision cannot be separated from the belief system it is based on. If vision is separated from the belief system it is based upon the vision will never be achieved and promises will be made and not kept. Vision is proactive and productive if it's real vision Vision for a believer is the result of his faith which is build upon the foundation of the full counsel of the word and especially the preaching of the word. Romans 10:17 (KJV) So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

A KINGDOM VISION Mat 6:33 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. The kingdom is not simply about the person of God but about His Lordship in people's lives. It not simply enough that a person is saved or healed but that God is ruling and reigning in all aspects of a person's life. When there is no reigning there is no reigning! We reign when He reigns. Vision of the added things is not biblical, not Godly and leads to idolatry. There is a lot of disappointed people in the body of Christ because their vision & prayer have been for the added things.

A KINGDOM VISION FOR FAMILY Parents are responsible to train their children up in the Lord? Deu 6:7-10 You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. You shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates. Your children must know the importance of the scripture in your life and in your home. Your children must know what you believe the bible to say and not what someone else says about the bible. (personal revelation)? Your children must know that you submit to all the bible says not just the portions that you find easy. Continually apply the scripture to real life situations in real time as the occasions present itself. The bulk of how you teach your children, particularly as they grow older, is this type of teaching You need to have a biblical conviction on how your children should handle the many things that come up in their life.

We must bless our children and pray for them continually We must confess their positives and guard their negatives We must speak with vision about their future and what God wants to raise them into. Let others boast about them when they do well, cautioning them that all our boasts are in the Lord
