Chapter 6: The Power of a Visionary – Part 2

Habakkuk 2:2–3 (KJV): And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.

With 2025 soon coming to an end, we are all entering a new season, and I couldn’t be more excited, as personally I’m entering it with strong purpose by God’s grace. I know what it feels like to drift without direction, to wake up wondering if this is really what life is supposed to look like. Stepping into this season with clarity feels powerful.

I hope Part 1 of this series has helped someone, even if it was simply to look at their life from a different perspective. More than anything, I want others to find purpose and understand why we are here.

It reminds me of that familiar childhood question teachers and parents would ask: “What do you want to be when you grow up?” I used to envy any child who could answer confidently, because truly, what life experience had they even had to decide that? As we grow, we realise it can take years to work out what job we enjoy—or even just tolerate for the monthly paycheque. We have to experience something to discern if our hearts are actually in it. Only then can we become good at it.

I spent most of my working life as a Personal or Private Assistant. I was organised, I enjoyed helping others, and it gave me a small sense of satisfaction. But deep down, I was living someone else’s life—thinking only about them, making their life better, and in doing so, I lost the “me”.

But our loving God orchestrated time for me after the redundancy to finally live my own life, to experience things for myself, and to truly see what my life should be. I longed to be fulfilled and to have something meaningful in my own name.

Spending quiet time with Him allowed me to reflect on ME and discern what He had put in my heart. After talking to Him, reading the Bible and listening to Prophet’s teachings, I felt a burden—a pull that I just had to do something. Not a one-time thing, but a need. Burdens birth visions, and you only discover your burden when you start having a relationship with yourself, because then you are having a relationship with HIM.

Talk to yourself—privately—and see what thoughts come up. Ask yourself: What do I feel the need to do? THINK BIG. Yes, you need to see it in your imagination, but does that burden make your heart sing?

If it does—you have found your calling.

Don’t worry if your calling sounds crazy or unrealistic. Most visionaries appear that way, otherwise how would the world expand? And remember: God would never put something in your heart that you weren’t capable of achieving.

I love visiting my friends who live in Dubai. Dubai is a desert, yet because of a visionary leader, look at what it is today. I’m sure many of the Sheikhs’ architects or staff thought he was unrealistic, but he had vision, detail and unwavering belief. Today, Dubai is one of the most architecturally stunning cities in the world.

As I emphasised in Part 1, money cannot form any part of this thinking. Your calling, your vision, your purpose is not about money. If the vision is from God, trust that He will make the provision.

As God instructed Habakkuk, there are three things we must do:

1. Write it out.

Yes, you can include pictures, but actually write it like a work presentation. Make it visible. If you can, involve your family so they become aligned with it. If you own a company, make the vision visible to every employee. And once it is written—don’t change its foundation. You can amplify it or add to it, but the core remains the same.

2. The vision must “run”.

A God-given vision carries momentum. It has the power to keep pulling you forward. If life feels stagnant, it’s because you’re not aligned with your vision—there is no movement.

3. The vision must speak.

Not through your own voice or boasting, but through its impact. The results will speak louder than anything you could ever say.

Every God-given calling has a delay. If it arrives instantly, it’s a dream—not a vision. Every true vision comes with waiting attached to it, because there is correct timing for its arrival.

I thank God that the things I wrote on my vision board years ago didn’t manifest straight away. I know I would have been lonely, unfulfilled, and I would have lost it all. God leads us to the right place at the right time for our purpose to emerge.

Any vision that involves helping others, feeding the Lord’s sheep, will surely come to pass. Your family and future generations will go far under a visionary leader, but the Kingdom of God must always stay at the centre of it.

Prophetically, September—the ninth month—is a birthing month. I published my first blog at the beginning of the month, and an answer to a request I made to the Lord for more wisdom and knowledge came to me also in September 2025. That revelation will now become the main focus of the blogs going forward. October became the finishing month, where the foundation of my vision was completed. And November has been a month of favour beyond measure, filled with knowledge about God’s purpose.

To demonstrate my faith in God and the vision He put in my heart, I registered the company name and designed the logo. Do something to demonstrate yours.

Although I will still be called to remember and share stories from my past, my blogs from now on will be in the “now”. This begins with a non-coincidental meeting with someone in September 2025. I say it this way because it was our ever-loving and magnificent Father who put this person in my path that day. Join me in the next chapter as I step into the Kingdom of God and discover what His purpose truly was.Until then, dear Readers… All Glory Goes to God.
