Goal Setting III
“If you plan and work hard, you will have plenty; if you hurry to get rich, you will end up poor” Prov.21:5 [CEV].
#7. R is for REVELATION. What Scripture supports your goal? As believers all our goals should be scriptural [based on the Bible]. There should be a revelation that backs up the goals you set. A Christian man decides one day that his goal for that year is to marry a second wife. He Read the rest of this entry
Goal Setting II
“Good planning and hard work lead to prosperity, but hasty shortcuts lead to poverty” Prov.21:5
#4. R is REALISTIC. Is it a realistic goal? For some people in their late twenties running into their thirties, their goal is to control how they grow horizontally. That is a valid goal but an unrealistic goal is someone of the same age bracket looking to control how he or she grows vertically. Read the rest of this entry
Goal Setting I
“The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance, but everyone who is hasty comes only to poverty” Prov.21:5 [ESV]
Sit down with God, come up with goals, and write the goals down. Writing down a specific goal will increase your odds of achieving it by about ten times. In other words, a written goal is ten times more possible to come to pass than goals that are not written down. “The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance, but everyone who is hasty comes only to poverty” Prov.21:5 [ESV].

Project and Prophesy
“But the plans of the Lord stand firm forever, the purposes of his heart through all generations.” Psalm 33:11
Yesterday we said, in goal setting the number one thing is acknowledging God [Ps.127:1]. We set goals knowing that God Himself sets goals. How do I know? It is in the Bible and I will show you. “He planned to bring all of history to its goal in Christ. Then Christ would be the head of everything in heaven and on earth” Eph.1:10 [GW]. God’s goal is to make Jesus Lord of everything. Sooner or later Read the rest of this entry
Learn Their Ways
“Take a lesson from the ants, you lazybones. Learn from their ways and become wise! Though they have no prince or governor or ruler to make them work, they labor hard all summer, gathering food for the winter” Prov.6:6-8
Many of us go through life with no clear-cut vision, no clear-cut God imprinted big idea for our lives. You still hear people say things like I just want to be famous. There is noting wrong with a child thinking or desiring to be famous. But you cannot be in your thirties and your vision is being famous. Some people say to me, I don’t care I just want to ‘hammer’. Initially I didn’t know what ‘hammer’ Read the rest of this entry
What’s Your Excuse?
“The lazy person claims, “There’s a lion on the road! Yes, I’m sure there’s a lion out there!” Prov.26:13
The story is told of a husband and wife on a Sunday morning. The lady gets ready for church, gets the children ready, but she looked at her husband still snoozing and it was time to go to church. So the woman says to her husband, “Honey, are you not going to church?” And he responded, “I have three cogent reasons not to go to church. Number one, the weather is good. Number two, not many people Read the rest of this entry

“We must quickly carry out the tasks assigned us by the one who sent us. The night is coming, and then no one can work” John 9:4
#4: STOP PROCRASTINATING. Stop procrastinating! What has God told you to do or what is God telling you to do? Just do it and stop procrastinating. God has told you to do something – just do it! I have come across people who have said they will do what God is telling them to do later and they boast that they will do it better then. Have you encountered such people? My sincere advice to all of Read the rest of this entry
Foundation Stone III
“Reuben, thou art my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength, the excellency of dignity, and the excellency of power: Unstable as water, thou shalt not excel…” Gen.49:3-4 [emphasis added].
All of us must desire understanding when it comes to spiritual things. Spiritual things are not like a switch but rather spiritual things are more like an electric oven; it takes time to heat up when you plug it. That is why when you keep praying, after a while you notice you begin to get the results. It takes time. However, it is the same thing when you unplug the electric oven, it also takes time to cool Read the rest of this entry

#1. STUDY. Be a master in your field. Master your field! If your field is make-up then be the best make-up artist there is. This is one of the things we were taught from when we were very young. If your job is to sweep then be the best in that field. If all you are doing is cleaning then make sure you are the best cleaner. Some people think they cannot invest in excellence until they become a CEO. No! Read the rest of this entry
