CARRIER? SLAYER? OR ENABLER?

ARE YOU A VISION SLAYER? When God called Moses to bring the children of Israel out of Egypt, He called Moses! He placed the Vision in him and even though Moses was reluctant, he submitted to the call. God gave Moses an assistant, his brother Aaron, but the Vision and the anointing to bring the Vision to pass was in Moses. Aaron, despite his weaknesses, was an Enabler of the Vision, not the Carrier of the Vision. When the Vision grew beyond Moses’ capability to deal with all the details, his father-in-law suggested that Moses select righteous men to deal with the issues, only bringing the most difficult cases to him for resolution. These men were not the carriers of the Vision, they were the Enablers. At no time in the Word do we ever see God pouring the same vision at the same time into multiple persons. This would create confusion as there cannot be multiple heads directing the process. God works through one man, who then builds a team that is committed to enabling the Vision. In today’s culture, we witness an element committed to maintaining control over the Vision Carrier. This ought not to be so! If the Vision Carrier is called of God, he is the Primary, Anointed, Called-out one to birth the Vision. The rest of us are either Vision Enablers or we are Slayers of the Vision. The Vision Carrier is not and should not be subject to the personal prejudices and opinions of those not committed to being Vision Enablers. The Vision Carrier is not beyond making mistakes, take Moses for example, but the bottom line is, he makes the final decision. Just like in a marriage, the two may not be able to agree on a given subject, so the husband then is charged with making the final decision. And it could very well prove to have been the wrong decision, but Christ is his head and they will work it out. It’s the same with the Vision Carrier, he is the one who will answer to the Father for every decision he makes. Our job is to come along side and work with the Vision Carrier to bring the Vision to pass. If we are not Enablers of the Vision, then we work against God and have become Vision Slayers.
