Sunday 3rd Service with Pr. Robert Kayanja

Today’s Message: VISION
We are discussing visions according to Jeremiah chapter 1. Jeremiah, a prophet of God, was spoken to by God for over 40 years, yet he struggled to grasp the message. The distinction between a dream and a vision is crucial here.
Verse 1, The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests that were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin. It’s noteworthy that priests typically didn’t reside in Benjamin; their place was among the Levites. Jeremiah, however, was living with the Benjaminites, the descendants of Rachel. Benjamin, Rachel’s son, hosted Jeremiah, who was simultaneously facing challenges.
Verse 2, To whom the word of the Lord came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign. Write down number 13. Verse 3, It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, unto the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah king of Judah, unto the carrying away of Jerusalem captive in the fifth month. Write number 11and 13. Add the totals of 13 and 11, resulting in 24. For 24 years, God was speaking to Jeremiah, and he wasn’t becoming what God wanted him to become. He wasn’t getting it! I know many of us, God has been speaking to us for quite a long time, and yet we have not seen what He said, 5 years, 6 years, even 7 years. But I am here to tell you that today is the day when God is going to fulfil everything, He said about you.
The bible tells us that those 24 years are passed. Verse 4, Then the word of the Lord came unto me, saying, Verse 5, Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. Why did the word come to him? Verse 6, Then said I, Ah, Lord God! behold, I cannot speak: for I am a child. Verse 7, But the Lord said unto me, Say not, I am a child: for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak. Verse 8, Be not afraid of their faces: for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the Lord. Verse 9, Then the Lord put forth his hand, and touched my mouth. And the Lord said unto me, Behold, I have put my words in thy mouth. You could see Jeremiah after 24 years; he is still saying “I am a child!”
Child of God, Vision is powerful. The bible says, without vision people perish [Proverbs 29:18]. To perish is to vegetate. To vegetate is to be in a comatose state. In other words, you are alive but depending on other sustaining systems. Equipment is the one keeping you alive, and you can’t live on your own. You can’t do things on your own. You are always being bailed out when you run your company or business.
When I was in Switzerland, I saw that there were no villages. Every village is a city, but they still maintain their way of life, for example raising cows; you could find like in Kololo the land is about 30 or 40 acres, and they have been like that for 200 years. I looked at their cows and I realized ours are just like sheep. These guys have mastered their game, and they are not gambling. Each cow can give you 50 liters a day and its creamy milk, and then they get Uganda coco and mix it together with Uganda sugar and they create chocolate. When you go to airports, those of you who have travelled, all the chocolates you see are typically Swiss chocolate. They create Swiss cheese; they have mastered their game, because long time ago, their forefathers had a vision of being the dominant Nation on security, banking, and services. The Swiss army is what protects Vatican. The Swiss bank is what controls the world economy. Every money of every nation is in Switzerland. They make the best watches in the world; if your watch is not made from Swiss, then it is not a watch. How did they come to that level? Vision.
Vision is different from sight. Sight is what you and I have. Vision is when the Lord shines on you, and then you see what you have never seen before. Jesus said, I am the light of the world [John 8:12]. So, when He shines on you, then you begin to see what others have never seen. That’s why the bible says, we don’t walk by sight, we walk by faith [2 Corinthians 5:7]. Because vision requires faith when you are believing. God was talking to Jeremiah, and he was not getting it. He even came to the point of touching his mouth and putting a word, but Jeremiah was not changing for 24 years.
I know many of you have been hearing the prophecy, the word; you will be this and it has not happened… until verse 10, the Lord changed the methodology. The Lord changed the way of doing it. This is what He said, “See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.” Jeremiah had to see in order to believe it, to walk in it and to hold it. It is the SAME with Abraham. God told him everything, I will bless thee… I will do this… until He said, see I have given you this land [Genesis 13:15]. Unless they see, they will never believe. Unless they believe they will never receive. Church, vision is powerful because the light of the Lord will shine on you. You will see land where there’s no land. You will see a house where there’s no house. You will see money where there’s no money, and you will believe and get it.
Vision is powerful that’s why in the book of Joel chapter 2 verse 24, He said, And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions. So, dreams and visions are a result of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. May the Lord pour His Spirit on you today that you may see what you have never seen. May the light of His glory shine on you. May you be able to see, and your vision is for Generations to come; it is perpetual and generational. You are going to make generational wealth for the first time in Africa in the name of Jesus because the Lord is going to pour His Spirit, power, and wisdom on you.
This is what He told Jeremiah, SEE… I have this day set thee over the nations…Today is the last day of your suffering, being sick, tormented and being denied. No more… no more failure, diseases, and witch doctors. Declare, I am over the nations… Do you see it? And over the kingdoms, it doesn’t matter what is in Uganda right now or in East Africa, whether the nations are fighting or whether there’s no money, you are above it… you will get your visa and money. You will build a factory… your name will be on top of buildings. You are above the economy. To root out… one day I was looking at our church building, a bird had flown and dropped its waste on it and the plant was growing. The other time it was on NSSF… birds are like demonic spirits; they fly everywhere and drop ideas in your vision. Something you never planted then it begins to grow. He says now in order for you to fulfil your vision, you are going to uproot everything your Father never planted… everything that the devil has planted and not planted by your Father, you are going to uproot it. Uproot cancer, diseases, Witcraft, demons, poverty, failure, attacks, jealousy… root it out. You are the head and not the tail. There’s no failure in you. Satan has ideas that he can plant in you to divert you from your vision, not anymore. Today root it out. Wrong friends, uproot them…
The reason you don’t have a breakthrough is because of vision and the anointing, but this day, the Lord is pouring His anointing on you…Then He said, to pull down. Every idea that exalts itself above the knowledge and wisdom of God, pull it down. You will succeed, and you are the head. Then He said, destroy: how do you destroy? We destroy by the anointing. We use the anointing… Now LAUGH….and speak in tongue… Then He said, Overthrow… overthrow the enemy. How do you overthrow? You declare the word of God; I am the righteousness of God. I am born-again. I am filled with the Holy Spirit. The joy of the Lord is with me. The Kingdom of God is here. I am the temple; I am the head and not the tail. Speak the word. Then He said, to build; you will be built up when you return to the Almighty, the God of grace, the God of mercy, the God of power. You are being built up in your innermost being. You are being built up in your finances.
As I conclude this message: Declare, I return to the God of Revival, to the God of power, to the God of mercy, to the God of Grace. I return to the God of joy. I run away from religion. I run away from man and return to the Almighty God. Finally, He said, and to plant. Today, you are planting a new beginning.
