Men who had vision from God.


Abraham:

Genesis 15:1 

After these things the word of the LORD came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.

Jacob:

Genesis 46:2

And God spoke unto Israel in the visions of the night, and said, Jacob, Jacob. And he said, Here am I.

Balaam:

Numbers 24:4

He hath said which heard the words of God, which saw the vision of the Almighty, falling into a trance, but having his eyes open.

Numbers 24:16 

He hath said, which heard the words of God, and knew the knowledge of the most High, which saw the vision of the Almighty, falling into a trance, but having his eyes open.

Samuel:

1 Samuel 3:1 

And the child Samuel ministered unto the LORD before Eli. And the word of the LORD was precious in those days; there was no open vision.

1 Samuel 3:15 

And Samuel lay until the morning, and opened the doors of the house of the LORD. And Samuel feared to shew Eli the vision.

Hidden in His Love

He … loads me with love and mercy Psalm 103:4

It’s time to let God’s love cover all things in your life. All the secrets. The hurts.

The mornings you awoke in the bed of a stranger? His love will cover that. The years you peddled prejudice and pride? His love will cover that. Every promise broken, drug taken, penny stolen. Every cross word, cuss word, and harsh word. His love covers all things.

Let it. Discover along with the psalmist: “He … loads me with love and mercy” (Ps. 103:4). Picture a giant dump truck full of love. There you are behind it. God lifts the bed until the love starts to slide. Slowly at first, then down, down, down until you are hidden, buried, covered in His love.

“Hey, where are you?” someone asks.

“In here, covered in love.”
