The purpose of God;s reveling truth in us where he dwells.

Vision is so important that, without it, the Bible says our life will decay and perish: “Where there is no vision, the people perish . . .” (Proverbs 29:18, KJV). Another translation says: Where there is no revelation (“prophetic vision”), the people cast off restraint (“live carelessly”) (NKJV).  Getting to Know God is an entirely living matter now and for ever.
 
To me, this verse carries a two-fold challenge: If we are not walking in prophetic vision, seeking God's will 1 corinth1-3 then we are causing others to live carelessly without conviction of the truth of the Gospel by not allowing  the truth  to be known among them. Thus we end up are also caught in a downward spiral that causes Luke warmness of heart and undisciplined living.
 
 And there is no true joy and victory in Christianity when we live that way nor is there a hope granted to the lost without the Good news.
 
 Our own faith becomes little more then a philosophy with it's lifeless rules and things to do and meetings to go to. A vision becomes a by product of personal connection an effort which has and is seeking the   connection spoke of in in John 13-17 KJ3.
 
 
narrow way shares it's  steps
