From vision to action - How to turn your dreams into reality
Dr. Roberto Miranda
(Audio: Spanish)
SUMMARY: The passage in Proverbs 13:4 speaks about the difference between a lazy person who only dreams and a diligent person who takes action to achieve their goals. The speaker encourages listeners to take control of their lives and live with purpose, vision, and determination. They highlight the importance of planning, self-motivation, and initiative. The speaker also addresses the "magical mentality" that some Christians possess, where they believe that simply declaring things and praising will change their lives without putting in any effort. They emphasize the need to use the power that God has given us to conquer our personal and societal challenges. The speaker concludes by encouraging listeners to put structure and discipline within the Word of God and work hard to make their prophetic declarations a reality.
The author emphasizes the importance of balancing faith and action in the Christian life. While God wants to bless and prosper His people, He also expects them to work hard and take action to achieve their goals. The author encourages readers to develop a broad vision of life and to use their skills and abilities to accomplish great things in the world. He also warns against a poor mentality that can hold people back from giving generously and parting with their resources for noble causes. Ultimately, the key to a successful and powerful life is to unite faith with action and to turn visions into concrete, material realities.
The speaker talks about the importance of having a vision and a purpose in life. He encourages the listeners to write down their dreams and goals, and to work towards them every day. He emphasizes that it may take a long time to achieve these goals, but it is important to stay focused and determined. He also reminds the listeners that failure is not possible for those who believe in God, and that even mistakes and setbacks can be used for good. The speaker urges the listeners to use their God-given talents and energy to do great things and glorify Christ.

I invite you to go to Proverbs. I want to use this simply as a point of focusing our minds on the subject at hand. Proverbs chapter 13 verse 4, two, three verses ok yeah let's use that first Proverbs 13:4 and I want to talk about how to turn your dreams into reality, the full title of this meditation is: "From Vision to Action" and how to turn your dreams into reality.
I told you the last time I preached that I wanted to start a series of sermons that I call "horizontal sermons" meaning that maybe the topic is not so sublime and exalted and spiritual but it is a very down to earth practical topic that I want to provide you with. some concrete tools for a successful life, a productive life, an extraordinary life and then I encourage you to focus your mind on that specifically.
