2 How do I know my part in His plan? Building Blocks of Personal Vision Pastor Andy Stanley 1.A vision begins as a concern. 2.A vision does not necessarily require immediate action 3.Pray for opportunities and plan as if you expect God to answer your prayers. 4.God is using circumstances to position and prepare you to accomplish His vision for your life. 5.What God originates; He orchestrates.

3 Building Blocks of Vision 6. Walk before you talk; investigate before you initiate 7. Communicate your vision as the solution to a problem that must be addressed immediately. 8. Cast your vision to the appropriate people at the the apropriate time. 9. Don’t expect others to take greater risks or make greater sacrifices than you have. 10. Don’t confuse your plans with God’s vision. 11. Visions are refined, they do not change. Plans are revised, they rarely stay the same. 12. Respond to criticism with prayer, remembrance, and, if necessary, a revision of the plan.

4 Building Blocks of Vision 13. Visions thrive in an environment of unity; they die in an environment of division. 14. Abandon the vision before you abandon your moral authority. 15. Don’t get distracted. 16. There is Divine potential in all you envision to do. 17. The end of God ordained vision is God. 18. Maintaining your vision requires living your core values. 19. Visions require constant attention. 20. Maintaining a vision requires bold leadership.

5 Four Questions to help you know your vision. 1.What is your present age? 2.What can you see yourself doing in 5 years, 10 years? 3.How does that demonstrate the love of Jesus to you neighbor and nations? 4.What are you doing today to prepare for the coming opportunity?
