A Relayed Vision Not a Delayed One

UV 3567/10000 A Relayed Vision is Not A Delayed One For the vision is yet for the appointed (future ) time. It hurries toward the goal of fulfilment; it will not fail. Even though it delays, wait (patiently) for it. Because it will certainly come; it will not delay. Habakkuk 2 v 3 The vision of whatever we are hoping for, working towards, may not be visible now but behind the scenes, the Lord is at work. If it is a God-given vision, no one can stop it. It cannot fail. It might appear to be delayed in its fulfilment but things are happening in the spiritual realms to speedily execute it in our real world, to realize and fulfil it. We need to learn to wait with expectation, faith, hope and patience for the vision to be fulfilled. We need to have a conviction whatever be the current obstacles and circumstances, since it is God-intended, planned, it will reach fruition. God is not early or late. He is just on time. It may not fit our earthly calendars and schedules but it will certainly happen. We do not see the full vision 2020 or the entire stairway we are climbing but we can see it step by step happening, being realized, fulfilled. As Jehovah Jireh, He provides for the vision to be fulfilled. As Jehovah Nisi, He ensures victory for the vision, regardless of the opposition of the ‘strong one” for Jesus is much stronger. As Jehovah El Shaddai, He shelters or provides a refuge for us as the vision is being fulfilled. As Trinity, he strengthens us in spirit, mind and body to participate and play our roles and responsibilities fully in the fulfilment of the vision. Jesus as the Wonderful Counsellor counsels us every step. Jesus as the Way becomes the very path of the vision to travel to fulfilment. Jesus as the Light puts a torchlight to take every step. Jesus as the Bread and the Water, nourishes us as we pursue the vision with diligence and determination. Moses as a young man was filled with anger or passion at the spectacle of a Hebrew slave being beaten by an Egyptian. He wanted to free one man but God wanted to use him to free and lead a whole nation of Israel to freedom and fulfilment of the vision of the Promised Land. The Lord God was preparing him decades ahead. The vision was not delayed though Pharaoh tried to sabotage it. The Lord did mighty miracles to shake and break the shackles of the Hebrew slaves. The vision was fulfilled and yet it continues to inspire individuals, groups and nations, yes humanity as a whole to this day.
