The greater the darkness, the greater the Light must be in us. But it’s NOT us, it’s NOT what we are and who we are. It’s who Christ is! We have to give Him the Glory and the Honour in all things! To God be the Glory!

I’m looking AHEAD to the coming years, to the responsibility and ministry in front of me even as Satan shakes the world. Paul says, Phil 3:13-14: Forget those things that are behind… press forward to the goal, to the prize, to the high calling of God!

There are three visions, three perspectives you need to have if you want to work for God: a vision of God, of the world and of what God can do through you.

‘Where there is no VISION the people perish!’ (Proverbs 29.18, KJV.) Only the King James Version is so clear, so blunt. In other languages, in other versions, it’s watered down. But without that VISION of who God really is, you are spiritually DEAD! The Power and the Authority that I have only come through the VISION of KNOWING who God is! David says in Psalm 63.1, ‘O God, You are my God, early will I SEEK You, my soul THIRSTS for You, my flesh LONGS for You, in a dry and weary land where there is no water!’ He says, “I’m so hungry, I’m so thirsty that I will DIE!” – He was in a wilderness, no water, no food, and he’s crying out, “My soul is like that! Spiritually. I HUNGER for You! Unless I FEED upon You and DRAW upon You, spiritually, I DIE!” I challenge you, unless you DRAW on God, unless you FEAST on God, unless there is a HUNGER and a THIRST in your soul, you will never, ever be satisfied! Only those who HUNGER, only those who THIRST, who SEARCH for the water and the food!

There are three visions, three perspectives you need to have if you want to work for God: a vision of God, of the world and of what God can do through you. Most of you are younger than me, so I want to talk to you as a father, grandfather! I want to show you what vision can do in your life. If you do not have a clear vision and purpose, you will achieve nothing for God. I want to give you a clear vision for your future, of what God wants to do, and I want you to live with this vision for the rest of your life!
