DO YOU HAVE A VISION?

“Of the sons of Issachar, men who understood the times, with knowledge of what Israel should do, their chiefs were two hundred; and all their kinsmen were at their command”

1 Chronicles 12:32 (NASB)

David had many warriors in his army, brave, loyal, experienced, and carrying all manner of weapons. But there was a distinctive characteristic for the sons of Issachar; they understood the times and knew what Israel should do.

Do you understand the times and what you should do? Knowledge and judgment is needed in making decisions. You need to have information on where you, your mission or job is in relation to what is happening in the world and the society around you. You also need a vision of where you are going or what you intend to achieve, and then you can plan the best course of action or strategy to take you there. Having a vision brings passion and energy to one’s cause and also motivates others towards a common goal.

The name Issachar means “His reward will come”. A reward could mean a return on investment, wages, compensation, etc. Whatever you do, for your service to God, or the world, work diligently and may you have a rich reward.
