“WRITE THE VISION!”

 

Habakkuk 2:2-3                 (ESV)

The Righteous Shall Live by HIS FAITH

[2] And THE LORD answered me:

    “”WRITE THE VISION”;

        make it plain on tablets,

        so he may run who reads it. 

    [3] For still the vision awaits its “appointed time”;

        it hastens to the end—IT WILL NOT LIE.

    If it seems slow, WAIT FOR IT;

        it will SURELY come; it will NOT DELAY.”

THE DREAM, VISION, or PLAN that GOD has placed on my heart is WRITTEN on the word processing program that I write devotionals on.  For this “brain damaged” hemorrhagic stroke survivor, it is a habit that I use because my confidence in my abilities isn’t as good as it used to be??  To have it listed on my computer log is a lot better than not remembering the item in question!

Waiting for the “appointed time” is NOT one of my strong suits!  Always wanting to receive HIS PROMISE is something that has been very enthralling!  NOT KNOWING the “difficulties” that are certain to come along with HIS PROMISE is something that causes me to “lose excitement” before the BLESSINGS are enjoyed.  Writing HIS PROMISES down is something that I perform in order to keep my HEART and MIND stable when “the enemy” begins to attack me.  

Habakkuk 2:2 begins with “WRITE THE VISION” being SPOKEN by THE LORD in HEAVEN!  HE knew that I would not be sharp enough to remember HIS PROMISE, especially when trials and tribulations were on their way!  HE wants me to “WRITE THE VISION” so I can be often reminded of HIS PROMISE and HIS PLAN for my life!!!  Therefore, I “WRITE THE VISION” to remind me that HE IS IN CONTROL, and I am not!!!
