If God said it....You Write It!

Have you ever had a vision or dream that you thought that was just out of this world? If so, did you write it down or just think "this isn't going to happen"?  I'm guilty of both.  I have had many visions that I didn't write down only becuase I thought "that would be nice, but let me be real with myselft, it's not going to happen".  I just spoke death over a possible vision God gave me because of my little faith and fear. 

Habakkuk 2:2-3
 2 Then the LORD answered me and said:
     “ Write the vision
      And make it plain on tablets,
      That he may run who reads it.
       3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time;
      But at the end it will speak, and it will not
lie.
      Though it tarries, wait for it;
      Because it will surely come,
      It will not tarry.
       

God plainly says in these two scriptures to write down the visions He gives to you.  Once you write it down, continue to pray sincere prayers over the vision and watch God work. Be mindful not to get discouraged if you feel like it's not happening when you think it should.  Verse three says that God has an appointed time for the vision, and you may have to wait, but it will surely come in due time. 

It's an honor when God trusts us enough with a vision He has for our lives.  Take them seriously and don't let anyone discourage you from that vision.  It's also important that we have vision for our lives.
 
Proverbs 29:18

 18Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.


Not everyone understands what God allows you to see and not everyone is on the same level of faith that you are to understand how you are going to carry out your vision.  Continue to write down your visions and take them to God in prayer and fasting. If He said....You Write It. 

Here are 10 reason God gives us visions:

WHY A VISION?
1. Clarifies Direction
2. Invites Unity
3. Facilitates Function
4. Enhances Leadership
5. Prompts Passion
6. Fosters Risk Taking
7. Offers Sustenance
