Keep to your faith walk
The mother of Jesus said to the servants, "Whatever He says to you, do it!"
John 2:5 - NKJV
What God shows you to do always works out! How many Christians experience it this way? It seems sometimes like it is only a few. This is because so few follow through on what He shows them to do. The many allow themselves to be unsettled and discouraged by the adverse things that happen. In the face of this they "cast away their confidence". Afterwards they stop following through on what the Lord showed them to do. Heb.10:35-36.
What's the Lord showing you to do about the visions you hold? How committed are you to following through on His directions? Realise that, at the time it's given you, what God shows you often doesn't make sense. Take, for example, Naaman. What God showed him to do by the prophet for his healing didn't make sense. In fact, it horrified him. He was to bathe in the dirty looking Jordan river. What was the sense of that? If you want cleansing surely you need clean water! Naaman eventually decided he'd better walk by faith, not by sight. As a result he did what was directed and in the river received healing. 2 Kings 5:14.
Expect times of opposition. If voices rise up against you to oppose you, raise your voice up in praise and declare God's promises. Keep your faith walk on track to receiving by speaking aloud God's promises. Voice them clearly, consistently and persistently and your head will have to leave off its natural reasoning to hear what you're declaring! You'll also face adversity. Have the power to see things through. It's called fortitude. It's endurance. Look how Jesus endured the cross for you. His power to see things through is in you! You can make it! Neh.6:2-3, Heb.12:1-2.
God's way gets you there!
