*DAILY DEW 15/MAY/2023* *SETTING & ACHIEVING GOALS BY PRAYING* (I) _Key Bible Text:_ *"Elijah was a human being with a nature such as we have [with feelings, affections, and a constitution like ours]; and he prayed earnestly for it not to rain, and no rain fell on the earth for three years and six months. And [then] he prayed again and the heavens supplied rain and the land produced its crops [as usual]."* (James 5:17-18 (Amplified)) _Bible Insight:_ Goal setting is the ability or practice of forecasting or proposing targets or objectives you desire to achieve. It is usually done with a timeline in mind. For instance, "I want to preach and win a soul every week" is an example of a spiritual goal. Achieving a set goal takes a number of things. Action, patience, determination, planning, etc are all things that must go into the pursuit of achieving a set goal. However, in addition to all of the above, we need to intentionally add prayer as a necessary step towards achieving set goals. This approach of emphasis on achieving set goals through prayer is especially needed where the God factor cannot be overemphasized. Prayer alone without other steps will not do. However, the emphasis for now is achieving results through prayer. Certain goals will need more prayers than others. However, at all times, the God factor cannot be overemphasized. _MEDITATION:_ *When you take a careful look at the scriptures, you will see how praying helped the saints achieved more for God in their generation.* *#David_Joshua_Egbochuo* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_MAY,2023* ❤ Links To Visit: *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.
