What have you seen about your future? How are you living your live today so you can achieve your dreams?
If you really have a vision for your life, that vision should drive you to be awake while others are sleeping and keep going while otheres are giving up.
Don't lose sight of your vision of the future; keep your focus on God, the author and the finisher of your faith. (Hebrews 12:2)

“Reflection: Does your lifestyle reflect what you have seen a great vision for your life?”

Memorise: And the Lord answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. (Habakkuk 2:2)

Your personal prayers of thanksgiving to the Lover and Keeper of your soul.

MEMORISE: O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever. (1 Chronicles 16:34)

Your vision in your walk with God must go beyond your father in the Lord, otherwise, when he is gone, your walk with God may be affected.

“Does your vision in God extend beyond your relationship with your father in the Lord?”

Memorise: Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. (John 14:12)

I would rather God rebuke me than stay silent.

If a Christian only wants to hear sweet things from God but never wants to listen to His rebuke, he or she will eventually stop hearing from Him.

You should be glad when God rebukes you because Hebrews 12:6 says that it is the child the father loves that he chastens.

God is not moved by mere religious activity; He is most interested in a relationship with you. But he will not dwell with hard-hearted individuals. Isaiah 57:15

“How do you react when you hear a rebuke from your pastor? Do you harden your heart or do you make amends immediately?”

MEMORISE: I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself thus; Thou hast chastised me, and I was chastised, as a bullock unaccustomed to the yoke: turn thou me, and I shall be turned; for thou art the Lord my God. Jeremiah 31:18

God talks to His people; the only problem is that many do not listen to Him.

If God has been talking to you and you have been disobedient, He will keep quiet, and you won’t hear Him again.

The primary way to hear from God and be guided by Him is to study your Bible.

There are times when you can clearly see what God wants you to do in the Scriptures. However, you still need to hear from Him on how to go about what He wants you to do.

“When you are dealing with God, don’t harden your heart (Psalm 95:6-8). Listen to Him with an open mind, be committed to obeying Him, and He will speak to you.”

MEMORISE: Harden not your heart, as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness: Psalm 95:8

Elderly people carry valuable gems of wisdom.

No matter how educated you are, some lessons cannot be learn in classrooms; they are only taught in classroom of life' and are learned by experience.

Whatever things you disagree with or that seem hard for you to understand, keep them in your memory regardless. One day, when you are wiser, you will likely refer to them.

There are some natural remedies to sicknesses and important principles of life that died with some elders because the generation after them did not learn about them when they had the opportunity.

“Before the go to be with the Lord, spend quality time with the elders around you, especially the christian elders to learn all you can. Tell them to teach you some of the things they know and do.”

Memorise: With the ancient is wisdom; and in length of days understanding. Job 12:12

Despite what He said in John 3:16; when He was saying His last prayers in John 17:9, Jesus said, "I' not praying for the world, I'm only praying for these people that You have given me.".

A fellow that is not born again cannot experience certain benefits of God's love. In fact, Jesus said He will deny such fellow before His Father on the day of judgement. Matthew 10:32

According to His final prayer, It it also very important to Jesus Christ, the Head of the church that he believer are united. John 17:20-21

“Make up your mind to honour the last words of your Lord and Saviour by striving for unity with other believers (Ephesians 4:1-3) In spite of your differences. Don't hold grudges or keep malice, bearing in mind that you all belong to God.”

Memorise: And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one as we are. John 17:11

The Bible says that the entrance of His word always brings light to the hearer and to situations (Psalm 119:130).

You cannot live an effective Christian life if you do not hear from God (John 11:40)

To receive God's word effectively, ensure that nothing distracts you and that you are totally focused on listening to His word.

“Prayer Point: Father, please open my spiritual hears and let me hear from You always.”

Memorise: And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn ton the right hand, and when ye turn to the left. (Isaiah 30:21)

A scientist might say, "Prove it to me, and I will believe you," but in Christendom, God says, "Believe Me, and I will prove it to you."

Many people make the mistake of trying to relate with God logically. This is impossible because the Bible says that God's ways and thoughts are beyond human comprehension. (Isaiah 55:8-9)

Do not argue with people who argue against Christianity with logic. Avoid unnecessary arguments with people concerning the truth of God's word. 2 Timothy 2:23-25

The way to prove that God is real is not through arguments but by the display of power. (1 Corinthians 4:20) Once you've shared the word, commit their hearts to the Holy Spirit that can convict and convert them.

“Prayer Point: Father, use me to showcase YOur power so that I can win my generation for You.”

Memorise: And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. (Matthew 18:3)

There is nothing compared to having a first-hand experience of who God truly is. Let your walk be dependent on your personal relationship with Him.

To know the truth about the word of God, you need to be filled with the Holy Spirit. 1 John 2:27 says that the anointing in you will teach you all things.

Once you start to relate with Him personally, it becomes difficult for anybody to deceive you because you know your God.

“When people change their beliefs just because of what one 'man of God' said or because their pastor announced that he has changed his beliefs, _withoug them going to search for the truth in God's word themselves, it is obvious that they are baby Christians or Christians with stunted growth.”

Memorise: That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; (Ephesians 4:14)

Whatever a fellow boasts about, has the power over him or her. Once you find yourself boasting about something, watch out, that thing is about to become a tool for the devil to use in bringing you down.

Even if you feel no one is better than you at something, keep your mouth shut. (1 Kings 4:31)

The only boasting allowed is boasting in the Lord (1 Corinthians 1:31).

“Boasting is like being on the battlefield and telling the enemy how to strike and defeat you. You may think you are talking about strength, but every wise fellow knows that the moment you boast about something, it becomes your weakness.”

Memorise: Thus saith the LORD, Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty man glory in his might, let not the rich man glory in his riches: (Jeremiah 9:23)
