16-SEPTEMBER-2024 - BEGINNING WITH THE END IN MIND
THE MAIN THEME: WHERE AM I HEADED TO?
TITLE: BEGINNING WITH THE END IN MIND
Our quote for today’s devotional is:
To begin with the end in mind means to start with a clear understanding of your destination. It means to know where you're going so that you better understand where you are now and so that the steps you take are always in the right direction. - Stephen Covey
Devotional:
I once heard someone say “if you don’t want to go to Lagos, why are you boarding a vehicle that is headed to Lagos”. Well, maybe it was not said in those exact words but the message summarizes our lesson for today.
When we are clear about where we are heading to, or what we want, it makes it easier to find the route and equip ourselves with whatever we need to be able to get to the desired destination.
Your vision helps you clarify your whys and think through how you want to go about attaining your desired goals. Also, clarifying your goals makes it so vivid that others can understand what drives you and some may even help you achieve it.
Here are a few reflective questions:
- List out three major areas of your life and write out at least one clear, achievable goal in each area that you would like to pursue in the next 90 days.
- For each goal listed, write out at least one thing you will start doing each day (and maybe what time of day you would engage in the activity) to help you achieve that goal.
LET US PRAY:
Dear God, I thank you for the dreams and visions you have placed in my heart. Because of this great plan you have for me, equip me and enable me to do all I need to do to reach this expected end in Jesus name. Amen.
Please say these words of affirmation. Say them, mean them, own them and live them:
- I know where I am headed.
- I am walking towards a glorious destiny.
- I am equipped to succeed in all I do.
- I will do my best daily as I rise to take my place on the earth!
Do have a fulfilling day. Take good care of yourself and see you tomorrow!
