25-SEPTEMBER-2024 - MY PERSONAL VISION STATEMENT

THE MAIN THEME: WHERE AM I HEADED TO?

 TITLE:  MY PERSONAL VISION STATEMENT

The bible verse for today’s devotional is Job 31:1 (NIV)

“I made a covenant with my eyes not to look lustfully at a young woman”

Devotional:

 You may be wondering; what a Personal Vision Statement (PVS) is?  It is a statement that describes your personal values, your strength, your goals and where you are going in life.  It is a tool intended to help you gain clarity into your world of personal leadership as it guides your thoughts, words and actions. Anyone reading your personal vision statement can easily tell your personality.

It takes a personal process of understanding who you are, why you are here, and what your purpose is.  Remember each person’s statement is unique to them. In today’s bible verse, we saw how Job made a personal statement / a commitment to guide his eyes. 

Daniel also proposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king’s meat nor with the wine which he drank. Daniel 1:8, Your PVS is a testament that you know who you are and what you will do. It determines your personal boundaries. It shows that you know your destination and what you need to do in order to get there.

With a well-articulated Personal Vision Statement (PVS), it becomes easier to make decisions, it provides you with a sense of direction, and it becomes your motivation during tough times.

Here are a few reflective questions:

  • What is my Personal Vision Statement?
  • Does my Personal Vision Statement align with my values and purpose

LET US PRAY:

Thank you Lord for your word to me today, I receive grace to craft, own and live my Personal Vision Statement (PVS).  Amen

Please say these words of affirmation. Say them, mean them own them and live them

  • I know where I am headed.
  • I am a person with a vision
  • I choose to be guided by my PVS daily.

Do have a vision-full day and see you tomorrow.

23-SEPTEMBER-2024 - FINDING MY VISION

THE MAIN THEME: WHERE AM I HEADED TO?

TITLE:  FINDING MY VISION

Our Bible verse for today’s devotional is: PROVERBS 29:18 (NIV)

Where there is no revelation, people cast off restraint; but blessed is the one who heeds wisdom’s instruction.

Devotional:

To find your vision, you must first understand what it is and where it comes from. Vision is the ability to see your future with clarity and purpose. It's the insight into your destiny, born out of your purpose on earth. Your purpose is the reason you exist, the essence of your being, and the solution to humanity's challenges that God designed you to provide.

Understanding Your Purpose Unlocks Your Vision

Recognizing your purpose is the first step to finding your vision. When you understand why you exist, you'll be able to see your vision clearly. Vision is not just a mental image, but a faith-inspired glimpse of your future. It's the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen (Hebrews 11:1).

The Source of Vision: God

Every great innovation, from airplanes to the internet, was first conceptualized and visualized. Similarly, your vision is a personal view of your future, inspired by God.

Your Vision is Your Deepest Desire

Don't search for your vision outside of yourself. It's as close as your deepest desires, thoughts, ideas, plans, and dreams that consistently resonate within you. Vision is not just an interest, but a passion that possesses you.

Here are a few reflective questions:

  1.     Why am I here? Why do I exist? What problem was I born to solve? What solutions should I bring to my world?

LET US PRAY: 

Lord, thank you for your word to me today, I do not want to perish because of lack of vision. I asked that as I spent time in your presence, may I catch a glimpse of my future that you have proposed for me.  Amen

Please say these words of affirmation.  Say them, mean them, own them and live them.

  • I know where I am headed.
  • I am a person of vision.
  • My vision will create solutions.

Have a beautiful day. Take good care.  See you tomorrow.
