SEE BEYOND YOUR PAST AND PRESENT
Proverbs 29:18 Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he. (KJV)
For some people all they can see is their past and present. To them the future is always unknown. They do not realize that if you don't envision your future disaster and distress may await you in the future. There is always a future whether or not you envision one. And when a default future comes it's always full of calamities.
See beyond your past and present into your future. Envision your tomorrow. How do you want your tomorrow to be like? See it! The Bible says in our theme verse "Where there is no vision, the people perish:.." This clearly tells us why people fail in life. Lack of vision leads to failure. And one who sees only his past and present cannot have a vision of a glorious future. Do not envision your future through the circumstances of your life today. Your future can be independent and different from your past and present circumstances. The future belongs to those who see it.
The later part of our theme verse says "...but he that keepeth the law, happy is he." He that keep the Word happy is he. How do you keep the Word? It is by meditating on it. And deep meditation is vision. When you meditate on the Word you see what it says in pictures. This tells us that you can see your future through the vision of the Word.
See beyond your past and present today. If you limit your vision to your past and present you would become uninspired and unmovable. It is vision that takes a man from one level to another. What you see moves you; you can't move if you don't see. So see vision of your future.
PRAYER
Thank Lord for your Word by which I see. I envision through the Word of God; I see beyond my past and present into my glorious future. I see by the Word a great, beautiful and fulfilling future the Lord has prepared for me. Amen.
