Rhapsody of Realities 15th June 2025 Devotional – MESSAGE
In our previous study, we emphasized the importance of seeing and creating the future you desire through the power of vision. Today, we take it a step further by understanding the necessity of having a strategy. Many of God’s children, though able to visualize, lack the vital element of strategy.

Joshua 6 provides a remarkable example of how vision and strategy work together to produce divine results. God said to Joshua, “See, I have given into thine hand Jericho.” The battle had not yet begun, but God declared the victory. Joshua had to see it first—this is the power of vision, seeing what God has already given you and acting accordingly.
However, vision alone is not enough. God gave Joshua the vision, but Joshua needed a strategy to take the city. The divine strategy was for him and the children of Israel to march around Jericho for seven days. Joshua had to follow the strategy to bring the vision to pass. In the same way, when God gives you a vision, He also gives you the strategy to accomplish it. Be sure to employ that strategy.
Life is a construction, not an accident. If life were an accident, it would be chaotic. Many people live in chaos because they have not structured their lives with purpose and vision. They drift from one event to another, relying on luck or chance. But a successful life or any successful endeavour is built on a solid foundation through vision, strategy, principles and means.
It makes no difference what your endeavour is; function from where God has positioned you and use the tools He has given you—vision, strategy, and faith—to build something extraordinary.
PRAYER: Dear Father, I thank you for the ability to see and construct my life according to your divine vision. I walk in wisdom, guided by your Spirit, implementing the right strategies to fulfil your purpose for my life. My steps are ordered, and my success is inevitable, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Joshua 6:1-5
Complete Jewish Bible
6 Yericho had completely barricaded its gates against the people of Isra’el — no one left, and no one entered. 2 Adonai said to Y’hoshua, “I have handed Yericho over to you, including its king and his warriors. 3 You are to encircle the city with all your soldiers and march around it once. Do this for six days. 4 Seven cohanim are to carry seven shofars in front of the ark. On the seventh day you are to march around the city seven times, and the cohanim will blow the shofars. 5 Then they are to blow a long blast on the shofar. On hearing the sound of the shofar, all the people are to shout as loudly as they can; and the wall of the city will fall down flat. Then the people are to go up into the city, each one straight from where he stands.”
Joshua 6:20-22
Complete Jewish Bible
20 So the people shouted, with the shofars blowing. When the people heard the sound of the shofars, the people let out a great shout; and the wall fell down flat; so that the people went up into the city, each one straight ahead of him; and they captured the city. 21 They completely destroyed everything in the city with the sword — men and women, young and old, cattle, sheep and donkeys.
22 Y’hoshua said to the two men who had reconnoitered the land, “Go into the prostitute’s house and bring the woman out with all that she has, as you swore to her.”
