Plan For It III

Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.3 John 1:2 [KJV, emphasis added]

 

God wants you to prosper; He is clear in His Word so settle it in your heart. The question is what can possibly go wrong in your finances, for instance? The worst possible thing that could happen is getting to zero [bankruptcy]. You need to think about it. Then answer this question, what can be done to make sure it never happens? I have thought about it and I have put things in place to ensure I never borrow again in my life.

Plan For It II

“Dear friend, I hope all is well with you and that you are as healthy in body as you are strong in spirit” 3 John 1:2.

 

Today’s scripture reference highlights three key areas God wants us to do well in. God wants you and I to prosper and we must embrace this truth. Secondly, God wants us to be in health, embrace it. And thirdly, God wants us to be spiritually sound and spiritually strong, embrace it. However, in these three areas, you must ask the three key security questions which many people shy away from. But our goal is to exit our devotion time each day stronger than we came in. I can assure you that the three key security questions will make you uncomfortable. But as you go Read the rest of this entry

Plan For It I

“Dear friend, I hope all is well with you and that you are as healthy in body as you are strong in spirit” 3Jn.1:2

 

To be successful in security, you must understand that victory and defeat are always possible. God’s Word tells us that we are seated with Jesus in heavenly places but because of that we think defeat is not possible. Defeat is possible on this earth if you take things for granted. It is my prayer that you will not be defeated, in Jesus Name. Always know that victory is possible and so is defeat.

Have A Plan

“Where there is no vision, the people perish” Prov.29:18  [KJV]

 

We will be learning a lot from historical warfare and tying them to Scripture. About 331 BC, there was a king called Darius The Third; he was in charge of Persia. And there was a young Macedonian general called Alexandra the Great. Alexandra was just twenty-five years old and he many conquered territories. But God has a sense of humor. Alexandra conquered territories but got to India and died of malaria on his way back. An ordinary mosquito! I fear Read the rest of this entry

Come What May

“Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek His will in all you do, and He will show you which path to take” Prov.3:5-6

 

I knew I was going to serve God but I never knew it was Pastoral, whatever my hand found to do I did with all my heart. I have served in almost every unit in Church, I have served in the technical unit, I have parked cars, I have served in Junior Church [God bless the children], I have served in the choir, I have served in Read the rest of this entry

With Purpose

“For I know the plans I have for you, says the LORD, they are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope” Jer.29:11

 

It is my prayer that this singular life that we have, we will all make it count in Jesus Name. The opposite of a life that counts is a wasted life and I am praying that none of our lives will be wasted in Jesus Name. Everyone that God created He created with a purpose. God had something in mind when He made you and I and 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].
