Kong Hee: Stepping Into Your Purposeنموونە

Is Your Vision From God?

People constantly ask me, “How do I know if something is from the Lord, or if it’s just what I want?” I tell them to look in Genesis where God came to Abram in a vision and said, “Do not be afraid…” (Genesis 15:1).

When you have a vision that is from God, you will tend to experience an initial bout of fear or intimidation at what is required of you, because a real vision requires faith. At the very same time, the visions and dreams that God gives you will build your faith as you choose to obey, take risks, and see Him make good on His promises.

God gave Abram a big vision. He told him, at 75 years of age, that He would give him a son, and that through him all nations would be blessed. Abraham would have been afraid. In fact, we know there were times his trust in God was weak. Yet God came through, and his wife bore a son when Abraham was 100 years old!

If you want to know if a vision is from God, ask yourself, “Does this require me to step out in faith?” God’s vision for your life will often challenge you to step out into territory that may be unfamiliar to you. Pray and seek discernment from Scripture, and look for God’s guidance at every step.

Prayer for the day:

Pray that God would give you supernatural guidance when it comes to His leading in your life.
