Devotional

Beloved, as we embark on a new season of life, it’s essential to approach our goals with a Christ-centered perspective. In a world filled with endless distractions and competing priorities, setting goals that align with God’s Will becomes a powerful expression of our faith and trust in Him. The Bible encourages us in Proverbs 16:3 to commit our plans to the Lord.

Key Scripture

Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and He will establish your plans.
Proverbs 16:3 (NIV)

Refreshing for the Day

This commitment is not a mere formality; it’s an invitation for God to be at the forefront of our plans, aspirations and endeavors. When Christ is at the center of our goals, we acknowledge that we cannot do without Him. We recognise that our lives are ultimately directed by His purpose and divine plan. Stay Refreshed!

Note This

Setting Christ-centered goals isn’t about pursuing personal success for its own sake; it’s about glorifying God in all that we do.

Responsibility

So, let’s seek God’s guidance through prayer, even as we set our new year goals and resolutions.

Pause in His presence

Prayer

Oh God, thank You for the gift of life and a new year. As we begin the year, give us the grace to set goals that resonates Your glory. In Jesus’ name, we pray, Amen!

Carry this with you

Prophetic Word

And may the Lord establish our plans and set our feet on a higher rock in this year and beyond, in the name of Jesus’ Amen!
