IT IS A SEASON OF FRUITFULNESS Vision Week 2017 was a sounding of the trumpets , a wake-up call from our slumber and state of unfruitfulness . Colin Dye ’ s messages provoked a deep hunger in me . As we were being anointed with oil , I saw the potential within each individual for greatness .
As a cell family , my sisters and I identify with the Psalm 45 ‘ royal daughter ’. We are chosen to reflect God ’ s character , beauty and glory and in so doing provoking others to desire and become the same .
STEPPING FROM
HEARING
INTO ACTION
Following the launch of the 20:20 Vision last month , Revival Times spoke to a representative from each the men ’ s and women ’ s primary team to hear their reflections and to find out their first steps in seeing the vision become reality .
I see the cell vision stirring the royal daughters to desire God so passionately , know him more intimately , that we become like him . I visualise them as strong formidable warriors of fire in our spheres of influence , pushing back darkness by the blazing light and heat of God ’ s love .
Colin stated that we have to marry the vision in order to carry the vision . For this to happen , we must first fix our eyes on Jesus and allow his vision to be birthed in our hearts with total commitment . The root of unfruitfulness is deeper than a lack of cell activity . I believe it is a heart issue . That is , our fruitfulness is a direct reflection of our revelation and intimacy with God .
February is ‘ Valentine month ’ and a Songs of Solomon season for our cell . The royal daughters will take quality time to enter the King ’ s chambers , sit at his feet in deep and meaningful intimacy , and allow him to love and nourish us with bread from heaven .
We are already discussing our current state of fruitfulness and any issues which prevent us from growing .
The royal daughters will be taking time to fast and pray , meditate on the messages given at Vision Week and to listen to Holy Spirit . In accordance with Habakkuk 2:2 , we will write down our personal spiritual vision and our vision for cell . We will identify our goals , build the strategies and run with the 20:20 Vision in 2017 . We have come into his Kingdom for such a time as this !
