BELIEVERS AND BUILDERS


In the journey of Vision there are many kinds of people you'd come across. These people may either be for your vision, or against your vision. Many times as young Visionaries, we love to seek for people to buy into the vision, to believe in what we do, to believe in us and the  dreams of our hearts. This request is often granted, but it is not always sufficient. Today, I was privileged to meet Chichi Umuseaka the Founder of 9ineteen Networks, on a campaign we are about to carry out in Precious Jewels Development Initiative. While returning, the thought came into my heart, that there are two kinds of people, Builders of Vision and Believers in Vision.

If you intend to go further and faster in your journey into the vision, you must first  seek for Builders, and have a handful of them. Having builders will raise the vision to heights you never thought possible. Schedule meetings with top people in your field, ask for them to be your mentors, learn from them, read their updates on social media, follow their shows. Remember Jesus, he chose out the 12; the builders of the vision first before launching out into public ministry where it was recorded a number of times that "great multitudes followed him"

Obviously, they believed in the vision, but they were not builders. In the end only 120 disciples received the Holy Spirit in the upper room and spread the faith round the world. They were builders.

Though the builders may not be on your core team like Jesus, but you should maintain a cordial relationship with them.

Central Truth: Seek for Builders of the vision, they would uplift God's vision for your life far more than you can do with those who only believe in you.

FOCUS SCRIPTURE: Matthew 8:1

PRAYER
LORD, send my way people that will build up the vision that you've given to me in Jesus Name.
