This document outlines 4 characteristics of a person of vision based on passages from 1 Samuel 14: 1. They are careful about who they share their vision with because some people may oppose it or question it. 2. They take action and get started on their vision while others talk, complain or rest. 3. They act regardless of fear and understand that with God's help, even just a few people can win a battle. 4. They recognize the power of teaming up with one other person, as two people working together can accomplish more than individuals working alone.

3. 1. Careful who he/she shares the
vision with.
1 Samuel 14:1
One day Jonathan said to his armor
bearer, “Come on, let’s go over to
where the Philistines have their
outpost.” But Jonathan did not tell
his father what he was doing.

2.Some will oppose it.
3.Some will laugh.
4.Some will question it.

5. 2. Gets going while others talk,
complain and rest.
1 Samuel 14:2
Meanwhile, Saul and his 600 men were
camped on the outskirts of Gibeah, around
the pomegranate tree at Migron. 3
Among
Saul’s men was Ahijah the priest, who was
wearing the ephod, the priestly vest. Ahijah
was the son of Ichabod’s brother Ahitub,
son of Phinehas, son of Eli, the priest of the
LORD who had served at Shiloh.

Saul- recieved the vision.
Soldiers- implemented the
vision.
Priest- confirmed the
vision.

in all the cities and found no
