There is no Provision without Vision.

It is when we step out with a vision to accomplish something that the resources are then given to us. Vision always attracts provision. It is like a magnet that pulls in exactly what it needs to be successful. When we have a vision for our life, we will begin to draw the necessary components that God gives us to accomplish the vision. We need not to worry if we can accomplish the vision if we are living the vision out. You will always draw what it is you need when you step out with the vision.

So what is needed for us to receive the provision for our vision?

1. Patience

Provision doesn’t alway scone overnight. Sometimes God tests us to see if we are committed to the vision He has put in our heart. Remember, He tested Abraham all the way up until the point He provided the Ram. When God puts a vision in our heart it goes through a process of marinating and developing. Many times we want to run full steam ahead, but God is a God of patience and development. He will give us a vision, but then work the vision out within us.

Galatians 6:9

Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

2. Faith

God operates on the currency of faith. By faith it all works together. We cannot come to God without faith. It is the essential ingredient to our existence. The Bible says, “Without faith it is impossible to please God.” In order for us to receive the provision to our vision we must flex our faith muscle everyday. Dream big and believe big. This means we must speak and believe in faith.

Hebrews 11:6

And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.

3. Christ-Like Attitude

Don’t allow negativity to detract the provision God wants to send you. If you are complaining about the lack of provision for your vision why would God send you more provision? God doesn’t respond to complaints, He responds to faith! Let your attitude be that of Christ. He never wavered in His vision, even when the going got tough. Your attitude will determine how you go through the process of receiving your provision. And some times how much provision you are going to get.

Philippians 2:5b

…have the same mindset as Christ Jesus.

4. Pure Motives

The vision that God gives us will always be about helping others…somehow, someway. You can’t do what God has called you to do and it not be about blessing others. We must make sure our motives to receive provision are in purity to honor God and be about His work. Provision comes when we use it for the Glory of God, not our own selfish agendas. We must keep our hearts pure and our motives on the Kingdom.

Philippians 2:3

Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves.
