THE VISION OF THE CHRISTMAS STAR christmas2020

on the nite Jesus was born, the wise man saw the star
4 power of visions
1. vision give us a purpose for living
if theres no vision, ppl perish
-ability to see how things could develop in the future
-vision is not the same as goals and objectives
   -can't brainstorm to have a vision

-having visions, doesn't mean a bed of rose but a purpose meaning life
-not just a good idea but created in the realm of the Holy Spirit
2. vision provides a route map to guide our next step
-the star shows the wise man which direction
-visions guide our decisions, steps
-when we have a vision, we dont choose our decision, but its our vision.. making decisions based on vision
-we need to stay focus
-we need to commit what is impt
-our visions create our habits
3. a vision will come under attack
every vision will have distraction
-the bigger the vision, the bigger the obstacles, the more distractions
-our faith will be tested
   -God wants us to be clear with our vision.. is tt exactly what we want
   -so tt we can have confidence in God's promises..
-put doubts in our mind, discouragements
-family's desire to protect.. afraid of failure
-rivalry amg siblings
-Satan put temptation along the way..
-fear of failure.. afraid of judgment
-burnt out, worn out.. tired of trying, hoping
4. Our vision always lead us to Jesus
-a good vision will always lead us to God, make good decisions..
-stay focus on the vision
-vision should draw us to Jesus
-if a vision makes us so busy or tired and draw us away from God.. it's a bad vision
   -it's time to renew our vision
-its so tired to lean our ladder on the wrong wall and after much climbing then realized tt its the wrong side
-no matter what, how bad or how dark, focus on the vision.. -dont give up on God!
-God knows our potential, our worth.. we may not understand what we are going through, God is in control!
   -our dream has not turned out as we wanted, but God have something better in His mind
-God sees our value.. 
-we can trust God that He has great plans
-be wise, stay focus on drawing near to Jesus
