““Sing, O barren, You who have not borne! Break forth into singing, and cry aloud, You who have not labored with child! For more are the children of the desolate Than the children of the married woman,” says the LORD. “Enlarge the place of your tent, And let them stretch out the curtains of your dwellings; Do not spare; Lengthen your cords, And strengthen your stakes. For you shall expand to the right and to the left, And your descendants will inherit the nations, And make the desolate cities inhabited”. Isaiah 54:1-3
One of the things that will help you enlarge your thinking is by having a vision board. A vision board is having written down goals and vision that you regularly keep before your eyes. We have scriptural basis for this. “Then the LORD answered me and said: “Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it”. Habakkuk 2:2. What you continually look upon you attract into your life. What you continually look upon, you think upon and what you think upon you will flow out of your mouth. What you continually say you will eventually possess. In Genesis 13 God told Abraham that he will possess as far as he could see. “And the LORD said to Abram, after Lot had separated from him: “Lift your eyes now and look from the place where you are—northward, southward, eastward, and westward; for all the land which you see I will give to you and to your descendants forever” Genesis 13:14-15. I want you to see the order of things here. God told him to first lift up his eyes and see (verses 13-14). After he has seen, God told him to walk through the land he has seen; “Arise, walk in the land through its length and its width, for I give it to you.” Genesis 13:17. You see before you possess. The question is what are you seeing. Where do you see yourself being in 5 or 10 years from now? Write it down and keep it before your eyes continually, meditating and praying over it especially in the spirit.

“Then He brought him outside and said, “Look now toward heaven, and count the stars if you are able to number them.” And He said to him, “So shall your descendants be.” Genesis 15:5.
Vision precedes possession. If you can see it you can have it.
