RICK WARREN DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY 29TH DECEMBER 2021.
We know that setting goals is important because the Bible tells us that Jesus set goals. In fact, he often announced publicly his goal for the next phase of his ministry.
So why should you set goals? Today we’re going to talk about three reasons to set goals, and tomorrow we’ll talk about three more.
CHARLES STANLEY DEVOTIONAL 29TH DECEMBER 2021
Set goals because it is your spiritual responsibility. If you don’t have goals for your life, you have already decided to let other people run your life. When you don’t decide in advance what’s important, you’re letting other people decide. You end up wasting your life, because you haven’t clarified how you want to grow as a follower of Christ.
The Bible says that, to be spiritually mature, you have to set goals and move toward them.
JOYCE MEYER DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR 29TH DECEMBER 2021
“I have not yet reached my goal, and I am not perfect. But Christ has taken hold of me. So I keep on running and struggling to take hold of the prize . . . I run toward the goal, so that I can win the prize of being called to heaven. This is the prize that God offers because of what Christ Jesus has done. All of us who are mature should think in this same way” (Philippians 3:12, 14-15 CEV).
Set goals because they are statements of faith. If you’re a believer in Jesus Christ and you set a goal, you’re saying, “I believe that God wants me to accomplish thisby this time. This is what I believe God is going to do in my life.”
Goals aren’t just a statement of faith. They stretch your faith. The bigger your goal, the more your faith will be stretched. And that pleases God.
Ephesians 3:20 says, “God can do anything, you know—far more than you could ever imagine or guess or request in your wildest dreams!”(The Message).
Set goals because they focus your energy. Focus is the key to an effective life. If you spread your energy out and diffuse it over many things, you’ll reduce your impact. But a focused life is powerful and can change the world.
You don’t have time to do everything. But here’s the good news: God doesn’t expect you to do everything! The key to being effective in life as a follower of Jesus is to do what matters most and forget everything else. Goals help you maintain that kind of focus.
1 Corinthians 9:26 says it this way: “I do not run without a goal. I fight like a boxer who is hitting something—not just the air” (NCV).
