Clear Goals

Teach me to do Your will, for You are my God; Your Spirit is good. Lead me. Psalm 143:10

If we’re going to be effective in sticking to our plans for 2023, then we must include God in the equation. Our best ideas flow from the reservoir of prayer. Our most creative moments come from our time with the Father. When we invest time with Him in prayer and Bible study, we gain a clearer focus on our personal dreams.

In Psalm 143, David felt overwhelmed (verse 4), but he spread out his hands to God (verse 6). He said, “Cause me to know the way in which I should walk” (verse 8), and he asked for God to teach him and to lead him (verse 10).

You can never go wrong when you start with God. God will lead you, teach you, and use you, even when you feel overwhelmed—as you seek His guidance and help through prayer.
