“The Vision of the House”
“Points of the Vision”
Proverbs 29:18 Habakkuk 2:1 Acts 20:20 Acts 2:41-47
• Every “Man of God” should have a God given vision for the House (Church)
• Vision is the goal or direction given for the “Man of God” to be able to fulfill God’s plan and purpose for building His kingdom
• God gives the vision – It is up to you to get connected to the vision
• You being connected to the vision is going to bring the provisions to meet the needs of your life and the lives of your family members
• Just going to church does not connect you to the vision - That only makes you a church attendee
• The vision will motivate and provoke you - A life without vision is a life that is out of control
• A person running with vision is better off than the person with no vision
• Vision will always be bigger than you - Vision will always bring glory to God
• Because vision stretches you and brings out talents lying dormant in you
• The 8th point of the vision of this house is: A Non-threatening Name - Calvary Christian Center
• The 9th point of the vision of this house is: Radio and Television
• G-12, Pathways, and Life Groups are connected to the 10th point of the vision of this house: A Care Group Ministry
• Life Groups are a part of the vision because: It makes a big church a small church - It brings accountability to you - It gives opportunity to develop leadership skills
• Every Christian’s destiny is leadership – Every one of you is a leader
• You may be leading on a smaller level than someone else
• But you have the potential to develop the greater leadership that is within you to be a person of influence for the kingdom of God
• Many people are interested in getting a position to show their authority
• God is not interested in you just getting a position of authority
• God wants you to get into a place of influence so you can start helping people to help themselves
• Once you come into this ministry, there is a Pathway for you to travel on
• The Pathways will develop you into leadership, a person of influence, and a person who makes a difference in the lives of other people
• Jesus had the same thing for His twelve - Everyone that came into connection with Him
• He had a place where they can grow - A place where they can develop their character
• You also need to develop your character to become a better person and make a difference in the life of someone else
• By having a life group and sharing your experiences, the Word, and mentoring – You will help change lives and potentially an entire generation
• Start running with the vision – Because vision is going to: Empower you – Stretch you – And cause you to move beyond your mundane lifestyle
• Every vision must have a goal – It will never become a reality for you to be a leader unless you go through the process
• In every church there should be a vision – Vision gives goals – And goals gives process
• Some people are fighting process – It takes process for you to get prepared to move into leadership and start helping people
• God wants you to get connected to vision – Get the goals of the ministry in your heart
• Set out to achieve those goals by being willing to go through the process – Process is there to turn every believer into a leader
• It is called the Pathways: The Path to Belonging – The Path to Involvement – The Path to Understanding Your Purpose
• The Pathways are there to help develop you into the leaders that God wants you to be
• Get involved today –Get connected with the vision of this ministry and with the “Man of God” of this house (Church)
• God gave His son’s life for you so that you can give your life to help somebody else – That is when life begins
• God has you here by divine purpose – He has given direction for you to be used by Him in a greater way
