Ooh, do you really want me to answer this one? Just because God has given you a vision does not mean you will choose to bring it forth. Because we have been blessed with free will, you have to make a decision and actually choose to be obedient to your vision, calling and purpose. If you choose not to heed the call at the appointed time, it will dry up like fruit that has stayed on the vine too long. It will take longer and more effort to bring it forth in it’s designed fullness. You see, God brings things to you in seasons and if you are not obedient to the seasons of your vision, He will see you are not worthy or ready to carry-out His vision and there are consequences to be paid. Disobedience can also lead to experiencing confusion, unforeseen challenges in your life, seasons of lack, and being plagues by seemingly insurmountable issues.
In other words, if you don’t respond to God’s calling, you are limiting your blessings and there are consequences for disobedience in God’s Kingdom just as there are consequences in the natural world for a disobedient child. It is good to know you serve a merciful God who will work with you as you get every aspect of your life in alignment. Remember a time when you were obedient and were greatly rewarded for your actions? God also has great rewards and promises when you fully step into his Kingdom and follow his lead.
The key is that you must take faithful action. This is a hard pill to swallow because you may have been told, “It’s never too late to follow your dream.” While doing something toward your vision at any time is better than nothing, not heeding God’s timing can create undue suffering and struggle in your life. This is God allowing things to get so uncomfortable that you will be forced to move.
God has deposited something in you that no one else on the planet can do exactly like you. If you choose to allow your vision to lay dormant, those who you were born to impact will suffer. Whew! That one was even hard to write. Not being obedient to your vision leaves not only your own inner suffering, but it overflows into other’s lives. I see only one option. You must live your vision and start today. But, then again, I’m a bit biased, I know.
