2 Corinthians 5:7 "For we live by faith not by sight."
Anthony was a 12-year-old boy. He was the only child in the family, but his father did not spoil him. Even though his father did not spoil him, Anthony was certain that his father loved him. One day, Anthony made a list of needs and brought it to his father. His father was quiet and did not say a word when he read it. Anthony still believed that his father would give him what he needed. Two weeks later, his father went out of the town and left a message on the fridge's door. He asked Anthony to help his mother cleaning the house and his work room. Since Anthony did not want to disappoint his father, after getting home from school he cleaned the house. When he cleaned his father's work room, he was surprised of the things he found there. He found that all the things he needed had been provided by his father, even better than he asked for.
We all have vision and dream that God put into our life. We all have desire and need which are essential to make the vision and dream come true. However, how big is your faith to God that He can make His vision for you come true? Believe in Him. God can do everything because He is the creator of this world. The universe was formed at God's command so that what is seen was not made out of what is visible (Hebrews 11:3). What God wants you to do is to live by faith, not by sight (Hebrews 11:1).
When you believe Him, His favor will come down on you. If you have not seen the manifestation of His vision, do not falter. Keep your faith and keep walking with Him. Your faith will be credited as righteousness (Genesis 15:6) and will release the power of God into your life. You will witness how the name is glorified when His vision is manifested into your life. All for the glory of God. Amen.
