My Expectation Shall Not Be Cut Off
« on: November 09, 2010, 01:29:52 PM »
    When you read Genesis 1:26-31 and you combine it with Jeremiah 29:11 what comes to your mind?

1.        What is your expectation? – Is fear  dictating to you - Job 3:25? It is actually possible to be working hard  everyday without having a clearly defined goal or objective. There is a  self-deception that makes people feel good just because they are busy! Your  success in life is not about how busy you are but the result you are getting in  life! It is not how much time you spend doing a thing but the result you get  out of the activity that really matter.
2.        God did not spend His precious time to  create a nonentity! Jeremiah 1:5 says before I was conceived, God  already had a plan. Psalm 139:14 says I’m wonderfully and fearfully made. 1  Peter 2:9 says I am supposed to show forth the Excellence of God! (ASV)
3.        So why am I where I am? – Simple, it is ignorance of  what am suppose to be doing or unwillingness to do what I ought to do.
4.        Define your expectation by setting Goals? – A goal is an aim or purpose.  If you feel your life has been drifting like a ball placed on a stream, then it  is time you settle down and write down your goal in life. We will actually make  significant progress in our lives if we take out time to define what it is we  are aiming at. Don’t be a ball on the stream. Stop floating or following others  about. Sit down and ask yourself some necessary questions?
5.        You need to set goals in every area of your  life – Every areas of our lives require us setting goals.
6.        You  need to write your goals down. Zig Ziglar says, “Written goals transform you from a  wandering generality into a meaningful specific.”
7.        You  need to check the goals with the word of God – Proverb 3:5-6,  Proverb 14:12, Isaiah 48:17

This is good. But I think you would have given the passage that talked about the topic. It is Proverb 23:17-18. My expectation shall not be cut off!
A fool has said in his heart, there is no God! I refuse to be a fool ;)

Thanks I forgot that scripture. Maybe I was too much in a hurry to post my thought. ;-)
