Keep the
Vision
Write the vision,
run with the vision, encourage My people. Tell them to Keep the
vision. Its not a personal vision. It is thee vision. It
is the hope to which you were called. It is by faith. It is
walking and even running as if it were. Do you believe what I told
you? What I promised? Do you wait for it, though it tarries?
Does your joy wane in the waiting? Or do you believe Me still?
As you have seen the death of brethren who had a vision not
fulfilled to their or your eyes, and as you have read the discouragement
of the disciples on the Emmaus Road thinking its past, its over and we
have missed it; this is how My people have walked, thinking, we have
failed or their God did. As mourners before their Lord. And
your God has waited to see if there be any among you that walks by faith
and not by what he sees; who accepts the promise as Abraham, though he
dies. For I tell you he who is not deterred from that hope of what
was promised and walks in joy and patience regardless of what he sees or
what other's say of doubt, to him it is counted as righteousness. To
him it is as if he has done the vision for he believed and was not wavered
from what I said. I say, it is the same as if he had it just as
Abraham.
Romans 4:20 "He
did not waver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthened
in faith, giving glory to God, and being fully convinced that what he had
promised He was able to perform. And therefore, it was accounted to
him as righteousness."
Its not your
vision but mine. You are all one. It is a much larger vision
than what you thought - much being centered around yourself and how you
would be brought forth in great exploits. But worrying that perhaps
these babes will have it instead. Its not instead. Its you
believing you have it. It's the call of the Body. Its all as
one. Therefore, I have waited to see whether you would believe.
Or whether the natural will after all convince you that you will not
make it. Even if you died, even if, I am waiting to know your
faith.
Such joy, such
joy is mine concerning those who rejoice always and give thanks always not
according to any sign or to what they see or even hear but only what they
knew I said.
Yes! Hear
it well! To them it will be accounted as the same as though they did
it. And they do and did through the rest of the Body. So,
therefore, there is no jealousy but urging to run. To keep the race
until the very end. As also, the great cloud of witnesses, saying
run, run, cheering you on. Your finish is theirs
also.
