4 Why have a vision? Proverbs 29: Where there is no vision, the people are unrestrained, but happy is he who keeps the law Vision is the bridge between the present and the future. Without it we perish or go unrestrained. Vision gives pain a purpose. Those without vision spend their lives taking the path of least resistance as they try to avoid discomfort. The level of sacrifice that a vision requires will determine the size of people who follow. Sacrifice separates the small from the great.

5 * The Vision for your life can be helped or hindered by the relationships you choose for your life. Proverbs 15:22 & 16:1 Without consultation, plans are frustrated, but with many counselors they succeed; the plans of the heart belong to man, but the answer of the tongue is from the LORD

6 * Vision gives strength when the journey is tough. Philippians 3: I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

7 Revisiting Our Prophetic Calling for Future Fulfilled Purpose

8 2019 will be the year that future history books will be written about your life. Again, raise your faith and prepare your hearts, because The Lord has designed 2019 as...

9 OUR YEAR OF DYNAMIC IMPACT!

10 Isaiah 58:10-12&14 If you are generous with the hungry and start giving yourselves to the down-and-out, Your lives will begin to glow in the darkness, your shadowed lives will be bathed in sunlight. I will always show you where to go. I ll give you a full life in the emptiest of places firm muscles, strong bones.

11 You ll be like a well-watered garden, a gurgling spring that never runs dry. You ll use the old rubble of past lives to build anew, rebuild the foundations from out of your past. You ll be known as those who can fix anything, restore old ruins, rebuild and renovate, make the community livable again I ll make you feast on the inheritance of your ancestor Jacob. Yes! God says so!

12 This is the word that will summarize your Luke 1: For with God nothing shall be impossible.

13 The Lord says engage and abide by these three directives: 1. Prepare for supernatural opportunities. 1 Corinthians 16:9 9 - For a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries. 2. Clean up your life. Joshua 3:5 (NIV) 5 - Joshua told the people, "Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the LORD will do amazing things among you."

14 3. Become so selfless that helping becomes more important than being helped. Acts 20:35 (AMP) 35 - In everything I showed you [by example] that by working hard in this way you must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He Himself said, It is more blessed [and brings greater joy] to give than to receive.

15 Now! LIFT YOUR HANDS ALL OVER THE AUDITORIUM. In the Name of The LORD JESUS, may God pour His SPIRIT OF PRODUCTIVITY UPON EVERY BELIEVER! MAY THE POWER TO MAKE A DYNAMIC IMPACT COME UPON YOU! May you see RADICAL BREAKTHROUGHS IN YOUR ANOINTING, HEALTH, FINANCES AND RELATIONSHIPS, AND MAY YOU MAKE AN INDELIBLE MARK UPON THE EARTH

16 May you succeed in areas your doubters said you wouldn t! May you defy even your own imagination! And may God touch the earth through your hands! Shout! Shout! Shout! For Radical Results, Explosive Manifestations and DYNAMIC IMPACTS have joined forces to WORK-IN-YOUR- LIFE!!!

17 Zechariah 9: Return to your fortress, you prisoners of hope; even now I announce that I will restore twice as much to you.
