Lesson 151: I WILL REACH MY GOAL

It is one thing to set a goal for oneself in life, but it is quite another thing to reach the goal set. Many never make it to the goal they set for themselves and have to live all their lives in frustrations. If it is true in the physical, it is even more so in the spiritual, intact our Lord Jesus Christ warned that any step that could divert our attention from reaching the goal must be avoided, Luke 9:62. May the Lord, through this study, enable us to reach our goals in Jesus, Name. Amen.

1. ONCE YOU SET A SPIRITUAL GOAL FOR YOURSELF, 3 THINGS COULD HAPPEN
Once you set a spiritual goal for yourself, three things could
happen, namely: (i) the enemy may put obstacles in your way or
use diversionary tricks (ii) God may test your determination and
(iii) if you pass God’s test, He will intervene to help you reach
your goal.

2. GOD IS READY TO HELP IF YOU ARE DETERMINED
If you pass the Divine test on how determined you are to reach
your goal. God will intervene to make sure that you arrive. He
did in the case of Abraham, Caleb, and Joshua, The Shunamite
woman, Elisha, Peter and His beloved Son, Jesus Christ. He is
willing to do the same for you also.
