The difference between Success and Significance

From Bill Johnson’s book: “When Heaven invades Earth”

It’s time for a revolution in our vision. When prophets tell us , ‘your vision is too small’ many of us think the antidote is to increase whatever numbers we’re expecting. For example: if we’re expecting 10 new converts, let’s change it to 100. If we’re praying for cities, let’s pray instead for nations….vision starts with identity and purpose. Through a revolution in our identity, we can think with divine purpose. Such a change begins with a revelation of Him.”

Pretty good stuff to start the day, I think. I have the need to be a revolutionary, at least in the ways talked about above. Certainly Jesus was a revolutionary thinker. If I am to be like Him, I too need to think outside the normal thought process and start visioning in bigger ways. It is the difference between success and significance.
