Audio Version
2 Corinthians 8:11- “Now therefore perform the doing of it; that as there was a readiness to will, so there may be a performance also out of that which ye have.”
Success does not just happen—it is the result of careful planning and intentional effort. Many people begin projects, careers, businesses, or even relationships with great excitement but struggle to complete them because they failed to plan properly. Whether in your spiritual life, personal goals, or finances, having a clear plan is essential.
The Bible gives us powerful examples of those who succeeded through precise planning. Noah did not build the ark randomly, he followed God’s exact measurements (Genesis 6:14-16), ensuring it could withstand the flood. Nehemiah did not rush into rebuilding Jerusalem’s walls, he assessed the ruins, created a strategy, and sought God’s wisdom (Nehemiah 2:11-18). Their success was not by chance; it was the result of planning.
Take a moment and think about your own life—what are you working toward? Do you have a clear plan, or are you just hoping things will fall into place? Set practical steps, and stay committed. Seek God’s help daily and watch how He positions you for lasting success.
Hallelujah!
