For the past ten years I have been intentional establishing goals. I literally sit down and set time apart at the end of each year and/ or at the beginning of each year to establish goals. I don't always accomplish all my goals. All I know for sure is that I am not the same person I was the year before.
My main goals are always spiritual goals. From there on, throughout the months God helps me identify different desires according to His will.
2017 and 2018 I did not set spiritual goals. I did have physical and educational goals. Which is great to have; however, that is how we get distracted from what really matters.
Although it is February, I hope you take the time to examine your life. Find ways to get closer to God, have a better education, good financial management, intentional relationships, and a healthier life.
Here are some of the goals I have for 2019:
1. Seek GOD FIRST every Morning! (His word, prayer, & worship)
2. Read more of HIS Word! (Bible, books, podcasts, & memorize verses)
3. Pray at least THREE Times a Day! (Thanks/ Praise, Forgiveness/ Petitions, Food: Every meal, the World, & Pray in the Spirit)
4. Follow the Two GREATEST Commandments! (Love the Lord God with all my heart, with all my mind, & with all my soul; Love my neighbor)
5. Live out the FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT! (Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness, & Self- Control)
6. Follow the TEN COMMANDMENTS! (NO other gods, you should have NO images + bow, Do NOT use the LORD'S name in vain, Keep the SABBATH DAY HOLY, Honor Father + Mother, NOT Murder, Not commit Adultery, NOT Steal, NOT Lie, & NOT Covet)
7. Be a PROVERBS 31 WOMEN! (Future video coming soon)
8. FASTING! (Go w/o food or specific foods in order to focus on God and His word which is our DAILY BREAD)
9. Tithes/ Offerings! (Ten Percent, General Offering, Missions, & Giving)
10. Music! (Listen to ONLY Christian music: music that is beneficial to the soul)
11. Attend Church (Sunday Service: AM + PM, Wednesday Service, YA Nights, Conferences, Bible Studies, Mission Trips, Concerts, Fellowship, & Prayer Meetings)
12. Seek God at Night (Devotion, Worship & Forgiveness)
