“And there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias; and to him said the Lord in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Behold, I am here, Lord.”
Acts 9:10 KJV
We think that only in the Bible and in the early church God spoke to people in a vision. We think that visions stopped after the ascension of Christ. Our God never changes, He was, He is and He forever will be. He still speaks to His people in a vision to accomplish His purposes. Ananias was a disciple in Damascus, some three hundred kilometres from Jerusalem. Yet, when Paul came to Damascus soon after Jesus’s ascension, that this disciple was asked to go to Paul and give him a message from the risen Lord Jesus. In the natural, Ananias recoiled from this, knowing Paul’s reputation of being anti-Christian. But thank God he was obedient to the vision. Let’s be disciples who receive visions from the risen Lord Jesus to do impossible things! God makes the way for us to accomplish His purposes. Let’s testify to the visions God gives us and be obedient to do it and bring glory to our living God. Let’s be obedient to our heavenly vision from God. Thank You for speaking to us in visions, Lord Jesus!
