UNDERSTANDING VISIONS (PART 2).

TEXT: Ephesians 1:16-20 (AMP).

 
¹⁶ I do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers.
¹⁷ [For I always pray to] the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, that He may grant you a spirit of wisdom and revelation [of insight into mysteries and secrets] in the [deep and intimate] knowledge of Him,
¹⁸ By having the eyes of your heart flooded with light, so that you can know and understand the hope to which He has called you, and how rich is His glorious inheritance in the saints (His set-apart ones),
¹⁹ And [so that you can know and understand] what is the immeasurable and unlimited and surpassing greatness of His power in and for us who believe, as demonstrated in the working of His mighty strength,
²⁰ Which He exerted in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His [own] right hand in the heavenly [places],

Paying more attention to the details in verse 16 of our text for today, it became obvious that prayer plays an essential part in the receiving and understanding visions. There is no better way to completely understand anything than going to its source. In verse 17 of our text it became clear that the Lord God Almighty who is the Father of glory is the one and only source of heavenly visions and mysteries. Therefore if any man would be able to decode the mysteries of life that are often encoded in dreams and vision then he must seek true intimacy with God till he is empowered by God to access the spirit of wisdom and revelation. When a man gets to this point in his walk with God, his eyes will begin to receive divine light and insight to understand that which only few persons can. This is when his direction and purpose becomes clear and he begins to gain much needed speed to progress in life. The difference between average people and those with outstanding testimonies is the degree of light they have to run with. If any man would spend time in the word of God he will begin to find the access to divine light. The scripture says “
¹³⁰ The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple. Psalms 119:130 (KJV).  Soaking yourself in the word of God will dispel every darkness and order your feet on the path of glory. Spend quality time with God regularly and you will be amazed the glory that will be made manifest in your life. The Glory Realm Devotional by Rev. Igho Y; the Glorious Fountain Ministries.
