Seeds Of Destiny Devotional – Vision: A Key To Outstanding Life

Dunamis’ Seeds of Destiny 20 April 2020 Devotional by Pastor Paul Enenche – Vision: A Key To Outstanding Life

Topic – Vision: A Key To Outstanding Life

Beloved, to be dreamless is to be doomed. Where there is no dream, the future will be doomed.

SCRIPTURE: And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it his brethren: and they hated him yet the more. Genesis 37:5.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: To be dreamless is to be doomed. Where there is no dream, the future will be doomed.

Vision is the key to an outstanding life. It was vision that made Joseph stand out in his generation. He lived an outstanding life by the power of vision. In Genesis 37:5, Joseph dreamt a dream. And please, I will like you to note that Joseph did not just have a dream; he dreamt a dream. Don’t wait to have dreams; make up your mind to dream dreams.

In Genesis 37:7, the Bible also says that Joseph dreamt another dream. No wonder he could not be doomed. Beloved, to be dreamless is to be doomed. Where there is no dream, the future will be doomed. When I say dream, I am not referring to a dream of the night where you see a tiger pursuing you. God forbid! Rather, dream here refers to the vision you have on the wings of your imagination. It is the dream you have out of your decision of where you want to be tomorrow.

Now, one benefit of vision is that vision imparts discipline to life. And discipline facilitates distinction. There are things people of vision can do and there are things they cannot do; there is a place they can go and a place they cannot go. There are people who can be their friends and people who cannot be their friends. They live a disciplined life because of their vision. Nothing disciplines a life like vision.

Proverbs 29:18 says, “Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he”. (KJV)

The Basic English Bible version renders the Scripture thus: “Where there is no vision, the people are uncontrolled; but he who keeps the law will be happy.” That is to say, where there is no vision people behave uncontrollably without order or discipline.

When you see a man who is uncontrolled, behaving like a drunkard, it is because he has no vision.

Remember this: To be dreamless is to be doomed. Where there is no dream, the future will be doomed.

ASSIGNMENTS:

Ask God to fill your heart with dreams for your destiny.
Like Joseph, make up your mind to pursue your dreams in order to realise your destiny.

PRAYER: Lord, I ask that You fill my heart with dreams of my expected future. I receive the grace to be who and what You want me to be, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.

QUOTE: People flourish where there is vision and perish where there is no vision. Culled from “22 LAWS OF LIFE” by Dr Paul Enenche.

AMAZING FACT: Some eagles have built nests so heavy that they have broken the tree.

DAILY READING: Nehemiah 9-11

PROPHETIC WORD: Your future shall not be aborted in Jesus Name.

The Transitional Phase of African Poetry

The Transitional Phase The second phase, which we have chosen to call transitional, is represented by the poetry of writers like Abioseh Nicol, Gabriel Okara, Kwesi Brew, Dennis Brutus, Lenrie Peters and Joseph Kariuki. This is poetry which is written by people we normally refer to as modem and who may be thought of as belonging to the third phase. The characteristics of this poetry are its competent and articulate use of the received European language, its unforced grasp of Africa’s physical, cultural and socio-political environment and often its lyricism. To distinguish this type of poetry we have to refer back to the concept of appropriation we introduced earlier. At the simplest and basic level, the cultural mandate of possessing a people’s piece of the earth involves a mental and emotional homecoming within the physical environment. Poems like Brew’s ‘‘Dry season”, Okara’s “Call of the River Nun”, Nicol’s “The meaning of Africa” and Soyinka’s “Season”, to give a few examples,

The pioneering phase of African Poetry

The pioneering phase We have called the first phase that of the pioneers. But since the phrase “pioneer poets” has often been used of writers of English expression like Osadebay, Casely-Hayford and Dei-Anag, we should point out that our “pioneer phase” also includes Negritude poets of French expression. The poetry of this phase is that of writers in “exile” keenly aware of being colonials, whose identity was under siege. It is a poetry of protest against exploitation and racial discrimination, of agitation for political independence, of nostalgic evocation of Africa’s past and visions of her future. However, although these were themes common to poets of both English and French expression, the obvious differences between the Francophone poets and the Anglophone writers of the 1930s and 1940s have been generally noted. Because of the intensity with which they felt their physical exile from Africa, coupled with their exposure to the experimental contemporary modes of writing in F
