Foundation Scriptures:
Habakkuk 2:2 NKJV
“Then the Lord answered me and said:
“Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, that he may run who reads it.”
Proverbs 29:18 KJV
“Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.”
Proverbs 29:18 AMPC
“Where there is no vision [no redemptive revelation of God], the people perish; but he who keeps the law [of God, which includes that of man]—blessed (happy, fortunate, and enviable) is he.”
Proverbs 29:18 NIV
“ Where there is no revelation, people cast off restraint; but blessed is the one who heeds wisdom’s instruction.”
John 16:13 NIV
“But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide (shew, reveal, open your eyes to) you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come(revelation information).”
1 John 2:20-21 NIV
20 But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and all of you know the truth.
21 I do not write to you because you do not know the truth, but because you do know it and because no lie comes from the truth.

Conclusion:
Example:
A minister friend of Kenneth Haggin had three serious accidents in less than ten years. Three people were killed, His wife was almost killed, and the minister himself was seriously injured. Both he and his wife were miraculously healed by the hand of God.
He told how he had a inner unction of warning before each of these accidents but was so busy that he did not stop and pray but ignored them, he said all three could have been avoided.
Many blame God for bad things happening to Christians and good people but most could have been avoided if they would have put their spiritual glasses on and saw what the Holy Spirit was trying to show them.
