In my blog, we talk about how to live a life strengthened with God's power and ability in your every day life.
How? Through relationship with God the Father, the Son Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit; by applying the wisdom He provides in Scripture to every area of life.
Dear Friend,
Can I encourage you to dream again—to run with the God-given vision and calling on your life?
If you’re anything like I was a few years ago, you might feel like there’s no hope left for your dreams. Maybe you've struggled to follow through on them, and now it feels too late. I understand that feeling—I’ve lived it. But I want to tell you, that doesn’t have to be your story anymore.
One of the key ways I’ve kept my dreams alive and hope fresh in my heart is by creating Vision Boards. A Vision Board is a visual collection of images, quotes, and affirmations that represent your dreams, goals, and hopes for your future. A Vision Board takes your dreams from inside of you, to in front of you, to manifesting it in your life!
Vision Boards help you keep believing to see your dreams come to pass.
And guess what? God is actually the mastermind behind this idea. In Habakkuk 2:2, He says, “Write the vision and make it plain on tablets, that he may run who reads it.”
For years, I resisted making a vision board. I thought it was selfish or silly. But the Holy Spirit began to show me the truth—it’s not only okay to dream with God, it's biblical! Today, I've seen the items on my Vision Board come to pass time and time again, and now—several Vision Boards later—I'm a believer in Vision Boards!
Creating visual reminders of your God-given dreams helps you stay focused, hopeful, and faithful in your pursuit of them.
“Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.” — Proverbs 29:18 (KJV)
The Greek word vision means a mental picture of a dream, revelation, or promise from God. It gives you hope, structure, and motivation to pursue it.
Here’s some simple ways on how to align your vision with God’s Word:
God’s vision aligns with who you are in Christ.
2 Corinthians 5:17 (NKJV) — “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.”
Do you see yourself as a new creation in your health, your soul, your finances, and your relationships? Do the pictures of your “new you” align with God’s Word?
God’s vision aligns with your desires.
Psalm 37:4 (NKJV) — “Delight yourself also in the LORD, and He shall give you the desires of your heart.”
As you study God's Word and delight in His presence, His desires become your desires. You can trust the dreams in your heart and pursue them with God. They may feel too big—but if they are from God, He will bring them to pass. Your part is to believe and follow His guidance.
Vision helps you believe God’s purpose.
Genesis 15:5 (NKJV) — “Then [God] brought [Abram] outside and said, ‘Look now toward heaven, and count the stars if you are able to number them.’ And He said to him, ‘So shall your descendants be.’”
God gave Abram a visual to help him believe. Even though it took 25 years for the promise to manifest, Abram kept the vision alive in his heart and he kept believing that God was able.
Holding onto the vision God gave him, helped Abram renew his mind and stay in faith, and then he saw the promise fulfilled. The same is true for you. Seeing your vision consistently helps renew your mind, strengthen your faith, and produce the promise.
