As visionaires, one of the requirements we need to make our vision achievable is having people around us. Among these people are special set of people that I call “fathers of the future”. One of the things we need fathers to give us in life is an identity and a name that stem out of theirs. As for me, I have identified three fathers in my life which I believe every visionaire should have.

My first father is God almighty who created me in his image and likeness and has sent me into this world to fulfill a unique purpose.

My second father is my biological father who initiated the physical process of my coming into this world. Of all the things that I thank my father for, this single act of initiating my coming onto the earth supersede. He also gave me a name that I am proud of.

My third father is my pastor. He is not only my pastor, but also my mentor/trainer for destiny. The formation he is supplying into my life is tremendously transforming every sphere of my life.

The interesting thing is that, the name I now bear was collectively given to me by my fathers.  How do I mean?

My heavenly father made me for a purpose and has a future for me. So he gave me the vision of my future- what my future is to be according to his own plan for me. In essence, my heavenly father has given me the name “visionaire” because he has made me to see the vision of my future.

My biological father has not only given me my physical name, but he is also giving me the best education I can ever have. He believes that if I will ever be a person of significance in life, I need to be well educated. The education I am having now has enhanced my vision and has given strength to the name my heavenly father gave me.

My spiritual father is giving me the best training of my life. Not only do I need to be feed with the word of God, I also need to be instilled with correct values, standards and good prospects for the future and that is what my pastor is doing in my life. Above all the things that he has instilled in me are FAITH and TRUST. So, I am a TRUSTED VISIONAIRE that has FAITH in the future.

I have just used my story to explain how my name came into being and to also emphasize on the importance of having fathers in our lives. No one was born to be fatherless. Every person that sees himself as a visionaire must acknowledge these three people in his life because of their input in our lives. For those that do not have the three, seek to have them on time so that you can step out in the strength of their identity which you must carry.  For those that their biological father is no more or has separated from them, you can still find someone that can function in that capacity to you such as your guardian, uncle, elder brother, etc.

You need the fathers of your future. Know them, have them and acknowledge them. Remember; you were made a visionaire because you have a future in front of you and it is your responsibility to have what it takes to live happily in your glorious future.

Peace!!!

Watch out for my next post titled “visionaires platform”

 (This post is the concluding part of my previous post and I advice that you read it if you have not so that this post can be understandable to you.)

Hear the still small voice saying:

“Come unto me and let us reason together. You can believe, see, or work towards your future but, you cannot live in it by yourself. The opposition will be too much for you to bear. All the questions wondering in your mind are enough to kill you but, I am your answer because, I have answers to all your questions.

Do you want to live by the answers to the questions of life?  Come unto me!

Do you want your burden to be lifted? come unto me!

Do you want peace even when the adversary is surrounding you like a raging tempest? Come unto me!

Do you want to live up to your potentials? Come unto me!

Do you want to know the exact location you are to flourish in life? Come unto me!

Do you want to be free from stagnation? Come unto be!

I will bear you on my wings and I will fly you into your future. Your life will be filled with splendor. You just come unto me. The future you see in front of you can only be yours if you come to me because; I am the one that made you to see that glorious future. You cannot prevail by your own strength alone lest you become used out before you reach your destination.

I put the vision of your future in you. You will have to do your own part but, your partnership with me will give you an upper head and I will show you the right path to follow. Others may be getting things quick but, I will show you the right way to get there. Remember, the future doesn’t belong to the man doing it quick; it belongs to the man doing it right. There is the right way to live your life. There is the right way to get to your future.

Many have died on their life journey because they became used out and confused.

Many people are being stranded on their life journey because they think they can do it alone.

Many people have gone back because they prefer to die than to boldly take what belongs to them (their future).

Many have derailed because they accepted offers from people that don’t have their interest at heart.

Amidst all these things, I am still calling you to come.

Your future is bright but, I am the light that brightens your future.

You future is glorious but it is in my glory that I will make your future glorious.

Your future is splendid but, it is in my splendor that I will make your future splendid.

I see you as a visionaire on a life journey moving toward the future but you cannot get their alone. Let me be your guide.

Instead of swimming through the river of life, I will be the bridge on which you can cross to the other side.

Instead of climbing to the top, I will fly you over the mountains.

Instead of walking through problems, I will give you a ride through the way.

Come unto me and let us reason together. I will be your turning point and I will give you a starting point. My intentions for you are awesome. My name is JESUS I am calling on you all visionaires. Come unto me. Come, come, come, come………”

To every race, there is a starting point and to every breakthrough in life there is a turning point. The essence of our being on the earth becomes clear when we reach the point at which we begin to see our existence for what it really is. At that point, there is a turnaround into a breakthrough living and that marks the starting point of a life journey whose destination is fulfillment. The peculiarity of that journey is that, it is a journey into the future. Every step we take forward is a step into the future which means we are in our future already but, there is still an unseen part of the future that no one except God has seen. For this reason, we keep journeying earnestly with hope to see the unseen part of our future as it unfolds.

Although there is an existence of the future yet, a lot of people are not living in it because they are not taking any step towards their future. Could it be that they don’t believe or cannot see the beauty of their future? May be they have the desire to live in their future but are being tied down by or with something. It is possible for a full-grown person to be working hard but there is no significant advancement in his life. The people that are behind him have caught up with him and are now living him behind. The future he hopes for doesn’t seem to smile at him anymore. The fulfillment of life he desire is no longer there. All hope seems to be gone and he is now left alone in his predicament. The usual thing that happens next it that, questions begin to arise with no answers following them.

(I want to write those questions in a personalized form so as to typify the present state of some people. some of the questions were part of my experience while some were heard from people’s experience).

“What could have made my journey to be stagnated? What could be hindering me from pressing forward into greater things of my destiny? Was it my fault to have been born at all? What could it be that I am done with my assignment on the earth? Could it be the problem of location? Could I maybe try to relocate to another place in search for green pasture? Oh, someone please help me. My head is full of questions that I don’t have answers for. My head is too small to contain all these questions. Maybe drinking will wipe off those questions or better still suicide will be a better option. Is there anyone at all to hear my cry? My soul is heavy and I am dying. This burden is too much for me to bear. I know I have a future but I cannot see myself living in it. Where do I turn to? Where do I start from? Everywhere is dark and I cannot see the right path to take.”

Is this your present situation or do you know someone that is in this state presently? Here is the remedy…..

Watch out for the next post!!!
