A.B. Simpson emphasizes the importance of inner vision in receiving God's grace, illustrating that just as God provides for the instincts of birds, He also provides for our spiritual journeys. He draws parallels between Abraham's vision of the Promised Land and our own hopes, affirming that God is faithful to fulfill His promises. Simpson encourages believers to seek God's vision for their lives, trusting that He will not deceive or fail them as they pursue their inheritance in Christ. The sermon calls for a deep reliance on the Holy Spirit to reveal our spiritual blessings and the courage to claim them. Ultimately, it is a call to ask God for both vision and victory in our lives.

The actual provisions of God's grace come from the inner vision. He who gives to the bird the instinct to cross the continent in search of summer sunshine in a southern climate is too good to deceive it. And just as surely as He has put the instinct in the breast of the bird, so has He also put the balmy breezes and the vernal sunshine there to meet it when it arrives. He who gave to Abraham the vision of the Land of Promise also said in infinite truth and love: All the land that thou seest will I give thee. He who breathes into our hearts the heavenly hope will not deceive or fail us when we press forward to its realization. There is nothing unfaithful in Him who has said: If it were not so, I would have told you (John 14:2), and we may know that God never will deceive us or fail us, but all that He reveals by His Holy Spirit He will make our own as we press forward and enter into its realization. Lord, give me first the vision and then the victory. Show me all my inheritance, and then give it all to me in Christ Jesus.
