Vision is always about seeing what the new or next thing is that God wants to do. Sometimes that is a launching something new through us, other times it is allowing Him into a new level of our lives or grasping a new revelation allowing it to form a greater level of transformation within us.
We are so excited for the vision focus this year and what God has been revealing is on His heart for the next 12 months for us as a church. We see God stirring us to go deeper! To go to a deeper place with Him, to pursue a deeper and more authentic connection and relationship with him. Letting our lives be more deeply influenced by His Spirit and stirred at a deeper level for His Kingdom. We see Him developing amongst us a deeper community with deeper relationships and convictions.
As we allow God to take us to a deeper place and to do the work necessary to develop the deeper relationship and deeper community, we believe that we will see some incredible new things birthed and current ministry increase in operations and in impact through us into the world around us. From all this, we believe that the fruit will be the glory of God and that in 12 months we will be able to declare that He has crowned this year with His glory.

9 You take care of the earth and water it,
making it rich and fertile.
The river of God has plenty of water;
it provides a bountiful harvest of grain,
for you have ordered it so.
10 You drench the plowed ground with rain,
melting the clods and leveling the ridges.
You soften the earth with showers
and bless its abundant crops.
11 You crown the year with a bountiful harvest;
even the hard pathways overflow with abundance.
12 The grasslands of the wilderness become a lush pasture,
and the hillsides blossom with joy.
13 The meadows are clothed with flocks of sheep,
and the valleys are carpeted with grain.
They all shout and sing for joy!
Psalm 65:9-13 (NLT)

“We believe in a miracle-working God. As we step out in faith for the future of Victory, we want to encourage you to stretch that same faith, in the same God, for personal breakthrough.
Whatever miracle you are believing in God for, we are believing that you will see it come to pass, as we join our prayers with yours.
We believe that as we see breakthrough at Victory, you would also see breakthrough in your personal world. Our God is able to do immeasurably more than we can ever ask or imagine! We stand on that promise.”
