Ephesians 2:10 (NET) For we are his workmanship, having been created in Christ Jesus for good works that God prepared beforehand so we may do them.
After Clement received the Lord Jesus and was baptized in the Holy Ghost, as he continued to live in the spirit, he received the vision for his life and now started to live according to it. As he continued to walk with the Lord and grow, he discovered that even his shameful past was no longer a disadvantage, God fitted it into his plan such that Clement could serve God in peculiar ways that those circumstances of his past had equipped him for.
One of the major works of the Holy Spirit in the heart of the believer is to give him a vision and purpose for living. We see in Acts 2:17 that when the Holy Spirit is poured out on all flesh, young men will see visions… The Holy Spirit crystallizes the vision of God concerning us in our hearts. As we begin to see God’s plan for us and understand how God has caused all things to work together for our good(see Romans 8:28), this understanding would help us live purposeful, disciplined, and guided lives. This is the natural out-working of living a vision-driven life. “But where there is no vision, people cast off restraint [and perish]”. See Proverbs 29:18.
Even our Lord Jesus Christ was able to fulfill His purpose when he became flesh because He lived a vision, purpose-driven life. He is our perfect example. He endured the cross because of the vision of the joy that was set before Him (a vision of bringing many sons into glory through the power of His throne).
Go into today reevaluating the vision of your life and how you’re living to fulfill it. Every Spirit-filled person should live a purpose-driven life.
Prayer: Father, help me live a vision propelled, purpose-driven life. Deliver me from all spiritual blindness, in Jesus Name. Amen.
