Vision trip

Acts 11:19~21 Some of them, however, men from Cyprus and Cyrene, went to Antioch and began to speak to Greeks also, telling them the good news about the Lord Jesus. The Lord's hand was with them, and a great number of people believed and turned to the Lord. (20~21)

Prayer has the power to move heaven and earth and even the world. If you can bring life to your soul through prayer and find your specialty inside of prayer, then you can have a vision trip through prayer that takes you all over the world. If that is so, how should we begin for our vision trip? You must surely understand the following three things.

1. The vision trip of the people of faith in the Bible

The people of faith in the Bible who received representative answers all experienced a vision trip. In their journey through life, they did not despair or fall into unbelief. Rather, they saw the important vision God had prepared for them. Everything on life’s path became a vision trip that fulfilled God’s covenant. If you can have a vision to embrace the world, however the difficulties come, you will not easily give up or despair. Instead, it will become a journey of enjoying answers until the future unfolds as an answer before your eyes.

2. The Early Church’s vision trip

We must find the vision trip of the Early Church that guarded its faith even in the midst of persecution and hardship. God allows all things for His people who begin their life journey holding on to the grace of the blood of Calvary’s cross. The Early Church, which had confidence in this, held on to the covenant of the Mount of Olives and experienced God’s kingdom while praying; they gathered at Mark’s house and resolved to stake their lives for the Lord, not caring if they died. Also, inside of their resolution of prayer and faith in the covenant, they found a vision trip that saved their family, church, and the field, saving Asia, Macedonia, and even Rome.

3. Vision trip through today’s Word, today’s prayer, and today’s evangelism

If you meditate deeply and pray with the covenant of Christ, the content of God’s kingdom and the filling of the Holy Spirit that appears in Acts 1, the time schedule of answers will come like the answer of the day of Pentecost. Also, when you enjoy the mystery of scheduled prayer in the Gospel the doors of evangelism will open like they did for the Antioch Church and you will receive the answer of Rome evangelization. Traveling the world through every moment of prayer is called 24-hour prayer.
