Reading: Proverbs 28-29, Psalm 48, and 2 Peter 3
Scripture: Proverbs 29:18, Where there is no prophetic vision the people cast off restraint, but blessed is he who keeps the law.
Thoughts: This proverb about vision not only speaks to those of faith but also to the world, for those in Christ and in the Church we are given vision through Holy Spirit and are given a path or some times just a destination. With that vision we know where to strive, we have that destination in mind. Are we developing a culture of vision in our home that will give direction to our family and direction to the next generation? Back during the World Wars our nation was unified in vision to the point that because of the shortages that came from the wars, our government encouraged people to use every available chunk of land to grow food to help one another. We are not unified in vision or purpose and it feels like there are those in power who are seeking to divide us so much that we can no longer stand. Let Holy Spirit lead us and guide us and seek the prophetic vision that He has for us.
Prayer: Father God, I thank you that you sent Holy Spirit to dwell within us and bring us wisdom and understanding to this world. I thank you that you are pouring out your love and peace on us every day. I thank you for your blessings and provisions. I thank you for the vision you have given me and I ask that you help me to see it more clearly and with more understanding. I ask that you encounter those in power that they know you more and that they are able to walk in your was and seek you instead of their own selfish desires.
