Gody Sanchez had a Vision From God. Maybe it wasn’t on the scale of Daniel’s four beast vision in Daniel 7, but Sanchez envisioned how to turn the noisy leaf blower beast into a quiet electric leaf blower—“he preserved jobs, negotiated peace, inspired hope, and did a small part to save the planet.”
Discuss Gody’s story with the class and point out how he ‘saved the day’. Did the Sanchez’ vision cause people to glorify God? How did it change Gody’s life? Was it encouraging?Ask the class about similar stressful situations they know of where God spoke to them or others in a vision.
Penn Clark lists 10 Characteristics of a vision from God based on the life of Paul. How does Daniel’s vision stack up regarding these same 10 characteristics?
I’ve always marveled at the Shakers and their visions to achieve earthly perfection. Community? I dig that. Regular confession? Makes biblical sense. Separation from the world? Hmmm. Celibacy? You’re kidding…
Have some fun this week as we prepare to study “Rejoice in the Lord’s Sovereignty”.
