What’s the vision or dream you have for your life? Is your goal so big, that thinking about it gives you butterflies? If your answer is “yes,” then your vision may be God-given. I say this because . . .  God only gives God-required visions, too-big-for-you-to-do-it-without-Him visions, God-I-Can’t-Do-This-By-Myself-I-Need-You visions. You probably need examples, right? Okay.

He gave moses the vision of delivering the Children of Israel out of bondage.
He gave 99-year-old, childless, Abraham a vision to become the Father of Many Nations. 
He gave a young virgin, named Mary, a vision that she would give birth to the Messiah. Do you see a pattern?

READ: THIS BOOK OF THE LAW

God will never give you a vision that you can make happen without His help. So, what did God do for the above-mentioned heroes?
God parted the Red Sea for Moses.
He gave Abraham a son.
And Mary? She was still a virgin when she became the mother of Jesus. 

So, what does all this mean for you? It means that when God gives you a vision, He also includes the resources necessary to make it happen. Those resources might include connections, support, information, finances, directions, miracles … whatever you need. 

Now, circumstances will try to convince you that you don’t have what’s required to move forward with your vision. Unfortunately, that’s when a lot of people give up. Don’t do that.

When it looks as if you don’t have what you need, that’s the time for you to press in even more. Why? Because your resources will be discovered as you remain faithful to your calling. You will never fulfill your vision as you sit and do nothing. You’ll discover your provision as you continue to pursue your vision.

So, please, don’t allow a little adversity to stop you on your path to destiny.  As Theodore Roosevelt said, “Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.” 

Now, that’s good advice. But  II Corinthians 12:9 (NIV) says it this way: God said, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in your weakness.” So, what’s your “weakness,” as it applies to your vision? Think you don’t have the right connections? His grace is sufficient. Need additional information? His grace is sufficient. Searching for technical support? Or capital? His grace is sufficient.

No matter what happens, as you pursue your calling, remember: God’s grace is sufficient. It’s during your faithfulness to your God-given vision, that you’ll discover all the God-given provision you’ll ever need.
