“And Noah began to be a farmer, and he planted a vineyard.” Genesis 9:20 NKJV
The word for today centred on a man. He lived many years ago. God gave this man a vision, in fact a big vision. It was a vision that seemed impossible.
The vision was to build an Ark because a mighty flood was coming to destroy the earth. His warning to the people fell on deaf ears. The world had not experienced flooding before, so why the need for an Ark. They revelled in their wickedness, they refused to believe in his vision.
Nevertheless, the vision consumed Noah and his family for many years. It gave him purpose and focus. After the flood, there were only eight people in the world. The vision had been accomplished.
Noah and his family settled after the flood. He became a farmer and planted a vineyard. Noah started drinking of his produce and became drunk.
This was a man that was declared just and righteous before the Almighty God. His walk with God led to him being entrusted with a mighty vision and saved from destruction. But after the vision was accomplished, he became vision-less. He no longer had a purpose to focus and direct him. He turned to drink.
An idle hand will become the devil’s playground. Have a vision for your life to help you focus. If you do not have one ask Elohim, your Almighty Father. A life without vision and purpose will become a directionless life, going any which way seems good but the end is shame.
You were created for a reason. Do not live your life without purpose.
#PrayerforToday 21st March 2018
Almighty Father, in the name of Jesus, give me vision to see things like You do. Open my eyes to see You in every detail of my life. Let my life be purposeful and meaningful. Thank You for the plans You have for me; plans for my good, to give me a hope and a future. Amen.
I pray this inspires you to be more and do more for Yeshua Ha Mashiach (Jesus Christ).
