What is Vision?
VISION IS A MENTAL PICTURE OF A PREFERABLE FUTURE. It is the ability to see the end of a thing before the beginning. In Gen 1:26, God made male and female in his own image and likeness (all of this was in God's vision, these things were not yet in the physical, they were in the mental realm). In Gen 2, we begin to see how God actually carried out his mission to translate his vision into reality. I prophesy into your life that your dream will not die. If you can dream it, you can achieve it.
We see how that there had to be a man to till the earth before seed could grow. What about the man in Genesis 1? He was in the vision realm then. God had to put adam into a deep sleep to produce Eve. What happened to the male and female in Genesis 1? Genesis chapter 1 is an account of the mental picture of the God of all creation, Genesis 2 shows us the process. God created time so that the things in the spritual can pass through the proess of manifestation. Every thing in the spirit realm is instant (Kyrus), physically,there must be a process (Kronus).
A TEST IS A HURDLE THAT MUST BE SCALED THROUGH ON THE ROAD TO SUCCESS AND PROMOTION. It is a journey crossing a crucial point on the way to prosperity and progress. Failure to execute it leaves you on the side of defeat. Information is vital. The difference between you and the person you admire is that there is something the person knows that you do not know.
Twelve tests of destiny
Twelve is a number of responsibility. Any where worth going has a pricetag attached to it.
Test of appetite
When satan wants to test a man, he comes through hunger,desire. Scripture shows us two Adams- the first one already made and the second one made ready. The first had no prior reparation, the second was prepared- their results speak for themselves. The devil came to Eve and tested her by appetite (Gen 3:5). Man lost paradise because of uncontrollable appetite. Appetite is not just food. Money, sex and every other thing that the body craves for comes under this heading. Gen 25:27-37 gives an account of the profanity of Esau, how he exchanged his birthright and future for a plate of pottage and lentils. Confess this: my birthright is not for sale!
Discipline humbles you (Deut 8:3). Control your appetite, put it on a leash. We have the power to do any thing but not every thing is necessary. You can control your appetites by knowledge of God's word (Matt 4:1-3). Temptation is not a sin till you have yeilded to it. What you know will deliver you.
Test of pride
pride is a negative self worth. It is an inner judgement that says " i am all in all". Pride is despising the place of others. Show me a man that has pride and i will show you the principal enemy of God. What you are now is by Grace (1 Cor 15:9-10). What makes you better than those in the grave is the grace of God. Before you begin to get ahead of yourself, remember that you are what you are by grace. Pride takes your position and gives it to others (Jn 3:27, 1 Cor 4:7).
The test of sex
Sex will either make or mar you. The only way it can make you is if it is done right. To get to your inheritance and fulfil God's purpose for your life is to pass the test of sex (Gen 39:5, 7,9-10). A man that knows where he is going to will not rush "opportunities" of today. Beware of the strange woman, beware of sex (Prvb 7:26-27, Judges 16 )! Ministers, be very careful with women and gifts. I know of a servant of God that lost a 12year old ministry between the laps of a woman. She kept showering him with gifts until she seduced him and one day. Those fleeting moments of pleasure started the chain reaction that oblitrated his ministry. He got her pregnant and confessed to his wife and the church. His wife forgave him but he was thrown out of the church while his assistant took over. Sex and sexual immorality is a sensitive metter.
The rest of this teaching will come your way next week. I hope you had a nice time reading and i hope you have been blessed. Feel free to leave your comments.
