God-Sized Vision
Selected Scriptures
I. A Vision Defined
A. Proverbs 29:18 (NIV), “Where there is no
revelation, the people cast off restraint;”
1. Revelation – “Word from God”
2. The nation or church that ignores God’s
Word can anticipate spiritual anarchy and
lack of clear direction
B. Since church growth is a supernatural activity, it
follows that a growth vision will come from God
and be grounded in His Word. Obedience to this
God-given revelation gives the church restraint
and provides direction.
II. A Vision Discovered
A. Initiated by God (Exodus 3:7-10)
B. Discovered through Prayer (Exodus 2:23-24)
C. Accomplished through Human Instrumentation
(Exodus 3:10)
III. A Vision Developed (Acts 13:1-3)
A. The Complexity of the Task – World Evangelization
B. The Communication of the Task
1. Initiated by God (13:2)
2. Discovered through Prayer (13:2)
C. The Commitment to the Task
1. Obedience (13:3)
2. Accomplished through Human
Instrumentation (13:3)
