Habakkuk 2:3

For the vision is yet of an appointed time;

But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie.

Though it tarries, wait for it;

Because it will surely come,

It will not tarry.

When we pray to God, we need to be specific in what we are asking for in our prayer. God doesn’t answer vague prayers, which is why some of our prayers go unanswered. We need to get a vision for the answer, which is where “calleth those things which are not, as though they were” comes into play. As we wait for the manifestation, we stand on faith in the word. Get a vision for what we need, believe it, speak it, and stand according to Gods word.
