Philippians 2:4 in the New American Standard Bible-95 states, “Do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others.” Everyone needs to get a vision for someone else. Our highest motivation for vision is meeting the needs of others. Everything will fit into place once our motivation is right.

I recently had the privilege of interviewing Pastors Andre and Jenny Roebert on Inside the Vision. They are definitely a visionary couple. They have a massive church in East London, South Africa, that seats 11,000 people. Andre and Jenny weren’t sure how they were going to pay for the renovation of the old warehouse building they bought until The LORD said, The money is in the floor.
During the renovation, they uncovered very rare and expensive wood under the top flooring. When Brother Copeland asked them how much they received after selling the wood, Pastor Andre answered, “More than enough!” It was more than enough to finish purchasing and renovating the entire facility.
During my interview with them, I received some very fresh revelation regarding vision. In a nutshell, the point of the entire interview was focused on these powerful words:
“Vision is not about us. Vision is about others.”
Many years ago, Pastor Andre was driving in South Africa when an emergency call came across his FM radio. It was a life-threatening situation and airlifting an injured child was needed.
Apparently, no aircraft was available. Pastor Andre pulled over and began to weep. He shouted, “LORD, if You’ll give me the tools, I will make sure this call never comes over the radio again!” It was at that moment The LORD dropped a vision in his heart.
Andre began to believe God for an aircraft to airlift others! He applied for the licenses, learned how to fly, and designed a stretcher to fit into an airplane. When all the requirements were completed, The LORD supplied a beautiful twin-engine, turboprop aircraft. He converted the interior into a flying ambulance and began airlifting patients!
One day, Pastor Andre thought, What in the world am I doing? I am a pastor, not an ambulance flyer! The LORD answered him: You called out to Me when you saw a need. No one else answered that call. You gave Me the opportunity, and I placed the vision in you. The vision produced the provision for what you needed.
Andre continued to fly the air ambulance until, one day, a businessman called who said, “Sir, I have been watching what you are doing. I have a jet airplane that I want to give you. It is bigger, better and faster than what you are currently flying.” The jet manifested because of Pastor Andre’s obedience to help others.
The LORD told Pastor Andre, If you will do what I ask you to do for others, you will never lack in what I will do for you.
The bottom line is this:
Meeting the needs of others has been the driving force behind every vision Pastors Andre and Jenny have had.
Philippians 2:4 in the New American Standard Bible-95 states, “Do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others.” Everyone needs to get a vision for someone else. Our highest motivation for vision is meeting the needs of others.
Everything will fit into place once our motivation is right. Pastor Andre said, “What can you do to get involved with a vision of helping others? Get your eyes off yourself and get them on others.” Together, let’s make an adjustment in our thinking. Vision from God will flow once we make the decision to meet the needs of others. Once we are obedient, the provision for the vision
will flow mightily.
The greatest Visionary is God Himself. John 3:16-17 is His vision. The New International Version says, “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.”
What a vision! And, that vision is ours, as well. Allow God’s vision to flow through you to meet the needs of others.
Praise God for vision!
