Vision Test


For the Lord has poured out on you a spirit of deep sleep. He has closed the eyes of your prophets and visionaries. Isaiah 29:10

It did not take me long to journal on this passage today. What caught my attention was the word "Visionarie" A Visionarie is what I believe God has called me to be, a person who brings life to people, families, regions, for without Vision people perish. This scripture today is talking about a people who had their own plan, tried to do things their way and stopped being obedient to the word of the Lord. As a result the Lord poured out a spirit of sleep, and the eyes of the prophets and the visionaries were closed.

"To test vision, you must test the heart first"
If disobedience closes the eyes of vision I want to be obedient to the point that I live life in High Definition. I want to be able to hear a now word from God, not yesterdays revelation, not a revelation from someone else, I want to hear what God wants to do and say today. What a terrible sight to be closed off to Vision. To be closed off to the heartbeat of God, to be closed off from His plan, His purpose and His will.

Let me see God, and when I can't or if my vision becomes faint help me to go back and check to make sure that I'm doing everything right, everything the way you want. Help me Lord to remember the vision test.
