Message summary & scripture references

God desires for us to implement the vision he has given us faithfully. Faithful means that we do it the way God wants us to do – not the way we think is best. Without being faithful to implement the vision God’s way, we are, at best, frustrated with minimum success and slow progress and, at worst, God takes the vision from us.

Proverbs 20:6 KJV

[6] Most men will proclaim every one his own goodness: but a faithful man who can find?

Act 7:2-4 NIV

[2] To this he replied: “Brothers and fathers, listen to me! The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham while he was still in Mesopotamia, before he lived in Harran.
[3] ‘Leave your country and your people,’ God said, ‘and go to the land I will show you.’
[4] “So he left the land of the Chaldeans and settled in Harran. After the death of his father, God sent him to this land where you are now living.

Genesis 12:1-5 KJV

[1] Now the Lord had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee:
[2] And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:
[3] And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.
[4] So Abram departed, as the Lord had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him: and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran.

Revelation 2:2-5 NIV

[2] I know your deeds, your hard work and your perseverance. I know that you cannot tolerate wicked people, that you have tested those who claim to be apostles but are not, and have found them false.
[3] You have persevered and have endured hardships for my name, and have not grown weary.
[4] Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken the love you had at first.
[5] Consider how far you have fallen! Repent and do the things you did at first. If you do not repent, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place.
