"Vision of God" | Greater Vision Series

Let’s Rediscover…Refresh…Reclaim our Vision of God and God’s vision for you!

Your vision of God shapes everything you do. If you have a lesser vision of God, you will do less for God in life. God has a greater vision and wants us to do greater things.

A clear vision of God can give us a clear vision for our life, “here am I send me”

Ephesians 3:17-21

God wants us to be deeply rooted in him. I believe that he wants us to be so deeply rooted and connect with /Christ, that we also have a clear vision of God in our lives.

Ephesians 1:18, 2 Kings 6:15-17, Proverbs 29:18

God has a greater vision, but will we choose to see it?
When God speaks, are you ready to hear what he has to say? What story is he writing?

Our hearts were molded to live in God’s larger story, his greater vision, not to be choked out in the third soil.

Luke 1:31-37

When how is out of sight is it tempting to put what out of mind.
Mary had to believe in the greater vision of God.

The gospel message is the proclamation that Jesus is King
Don’t exchange the greater for the lesser or easier.
With Lesser vision- Rather than believing that Jesus is King, and his word never fails, We tend to believe what we expect.
It really comes down to what is the future that we live in expectation of. Is it one in God’s presence, living as a subject in his kingdom until he fully restores the cosmos?
Do not let the question of “how?” Trump the fact that Jesus is King and his word will never fail.

Mark 1:1, 15

Jesus gives vision to the first disciples of who they could become by following him, it’s also our identity as disciples “be become do”.
They had a great response to a great vision. They were not underwhelmed.
Gospel vision: Jesus is King. Gospel response - repentance, forgiveness, discipleship.
Repent and believe the Kingdom vision.

When Jesus is our King, we have a greater vision of God. Is your Jesus too small?
When Jesus becomes your King, you will take responsibility for your stubborn refusal to believe in God’s power.

Isaiah 6:1-8

God inspired visions lead back to God. We should not be the focal point.
Isaiah saw the vision of God, and ended up getting a vision and mission for himself! In the same way, having a clear view of God helps us to know what to do as well! Some ways that you can see God more clearly for spending time reading his word, praying for God to show himself to you, and talking to others about how they see God.

What will you do to see God more clearly in your life?

Pray for God to help you see him more clearly, it may clear his vision for you!
