Introduction
t is my pleasure to help you write your vision and make it plain. Habakkuk 2:1-
3 says, “Write the vision and make it plain on tablets, that he may run who
reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and
it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not
tarry.” Habakkuk stationed himself as a watchman to look at the nations, as God
had commanded him. The prophet also waited expectantly for God’s response to
his three commands: 1. Write the vision 2. Make it plain, and 3. Wait for it.
Habakkuk’s faith is seen in his anticipation of a response from God. This scripture
means exactly what it says: write the vision and make it plain on tablets literally
means to write your vision and plans down on paper, e.g., in the form of a business
plan or a diagram. Make it plain means to keep it simple and easy for someone to
read your ideas and tell someone else. Once your vision is released into the
atmosphere and your ideas are spread abroad, all you have to do is wait for it and at
an appointed time God will bring your vision to pass.
This book will walk you through every step necessary to begin your ministry or
business. With the wisdom and knowledge God has given me, I count it an honor
and privilege to help you complete your assignment. Chapter after chapter I explain
each step and give you valuable tools needed to get your ministry off the ground
and running. It is my desire that your vision be released from your mind, to your
paper, and to reality. I believe once you read this Holy Spirit led book, your vision
will become a reality. Not only do I share secrets to success, but I also share how to
defeat demonic and spiritual principalities that will come up against you as you
begin your assignment. Through many years of heartaches, immature decisions,
sacrifices and pain, I open up my heart and vision in order to help you with yours.
It is no accident you are reading this book: God has ordained you for such a time
as this to proclaim liberty, set the captives free, lay hands on the sick and cast out
demons in Jesus’ name. Your ministry is important to the body of Christ: it doesn’t
matter how large a ministry because one ministry can’t do it all. One person can’t
do it all and one person can’t save every soul on Earth. No, this takes an army and
you my dear friend are a part of God’s army. Aren’t you glad God chose you to be

sergeant at arms in the army of the Lord? He loves you so much that through my
pains and sacrifices God has favored you with these valuable tools to edify the
body of Christ. After reading “Write the Vision and Make it Plain” you will get
valuable information that will not only save your ministry but advance your
ministry. And guess what? You don’t have to pay the same price I did to get this
needed information; rather, this information is offered to you by simply reading.
Your favor with God is to be admired.
