Vision is the secret
of action and motion (Habakkuk 2:2), and where vision is absent, idleness is
inevitable.
SCRIPTURE: And the
Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables,
that he may run that readeth it. Habakkuk 2:2
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
The absence of vision is the abundance of idleness. Vision is the secret of
action and motion.
Previously, we saw the
benefits of living a life of vision. We saw that vision is the secret of
outstanding existence. Vision imparts discipline to life. And discipline
facilitates distinction.
Today, we shall be
looking at two other benefits of vision:
1. Vision is the
secret of action and motion
Vision is the secret
of action and motion (Habakkuk 2:2), and where vision is absent, idleness is
inevitable. The absence of vision equals the abundance of Idleness. Where a
person lacks vision, time becomes a burden. The person who lacks vision has
time but he doesn’t know what to do with it. If you have time and you don’t
know what to do with it, your life is wasting. If you wake up in the morning
and you don’t know what to do with your life, then your life is wasting. The
absence of vision is the abundance of idleness. Vision is the secret of action
and motion.
2. Vision is key to
wisdom.
Wisdom comes naturally
for people of vision. When you know what you want out of life, the wisdom to
achieve it comes naturally to you.
Matthew 6:22 says,
“The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole
body shall be full of light.” (KJV) Men of vision are men of wisdom. Women of vision are women of wisdom. Your
mind opens up to revelation and insight if you know what you are meant to achieve.
Make up your mind to
conceive the vision for living. Review your vision from time to time.
Remember this: The
absence of vision is the abundance of idleness. Vision is the secret of action
and motion.
ASSIGNMENTS:
1. Make up your mind
to move and run in life by conceiving and maintaining a vision for your life.
2. Refuse to live an
idle life.
PRAYER: O Lord, I
receive the grace to run in life by the power of vision. Help me not to live an
idle life, in Jesus’ Name.

determines your future; so, to be without a vision is to be without a future.
