[Act 26:19 NASB95] 19 “So, King Agrippa, I did not prove disobedient to the heavenly vision, . . .”
How is your vision?
Vision is a buzzword in many circles. They use the word to indicate what goal they want to accomplish. There is pressure to have a vision, even if it is something you make on your own.
Sourced From God
As Christian, our vision is sourced from God. Paul called it a “heavenly vision.” It was for the prospering of God’s Kingdom. It involved the transformation of individuals and nations.
Two Components
A heavenly vision will have at least two components. The first component is a general vision. The general vision comes from the Bible. God has given us a mission to expand the Kingdom of God upon the earth through preaching the Gospel and making disciples. The second component is a specific vision. God has given us individual gifts that will indicate what God wants to accomplish. He will then tell us where those gifts need to be used. Some people say, “Find your grace and your place.”
Prove Obedient
We must be obedient to the vision God has for us. Paul stated to King Agrippa that he “did not prove disobedient to the heavenly vision.” It is one thing to know what God has called you to do. It is another thing to do it. This Sunday, we will unpack what Jesus said to Paul about the vision for his life. We will discover what God expects us to fulfill as it relates to the general and specific vision for our lives. Let’s commit to being faithful to the vision God has for us.
