Courageous Hope

DAY 4 OF 5

When God Gives the Vision

Throughout my ministry, God has given visions that seemed far too large for me to carry. Reaching entire nations? Placing His Word into the hands of millions of children? Humanly speaking, it was impossible. Yet time and time again I’ve seen that when God gives a vision, He also gives the provision.

That doesn’t mean provision always comes quickly or easily. Many nights I prayed, “Lord, how will this happen?” And many times He answered through unexpected channels such as faithful partners, miraculous resources, or open doors that no man could have forced. Each time, my faith grew stronger as I watched His promises unfold.

The same God who provides for global missions is the same God who cares about your needs. When He stirs your heart with a vision—whether for your family, your church, or your community—He intends to supply what is needed to see it through. Faith means stepping out even before you see the resources. God loves to meet us in that place of trust.

Reflect
What vision has God placed in your heart that feels too big? How might He be inviting you to trust Him for the provision?

Pray
Father, thank You for the vision You place in my heart. Help me to walk in faith, trusting You to provide everything needed to fulfill Your calling. In Jesus’ name, amen.
