In Habakkuk 2:2, the Lord instructs: “Write the vision and make it plain on tablets, that he may run who reads it.” A clear vision inspires bold action. When you break down your mission into simple, specific, and time-bound goals, you create a roadmap that guides your steps. Vague desires lead to scattered efforts, but a plain, written goal gives you clarity and direction. Writing down your goals is a step of faith—it’s a declaration of where you’re headed and a commitment to pursue it with focus and determination.
For example, a clear goal might be: “By December 31st, 2025, I will earn $60,000 through my web design business by consistently delivering high-quality, client-centered website designs.” Another could be: “Within two years, I will cultivate a platform that allows me to reach 10,000 people every month in my teaching ministry.” These goals are specific and measurable. It simplifies your prayer life because you know exactly what you’re praying for. Goals like these create a clear picture of what success looks like, making it easier to stay motivated and take practical steps toward them.
To create your own bold goals, begin by determining what specific outcome you want to achieve in the next 1-3 years. Write it in simple language. Make it measurable and assign a deadline. If you’re not sure what would make sense right now, seek godly advice. Without a clear vision of your goals, you may find yourself drifting through life, even if you appear to be mission-driven. You must begin with a clear goal. Then pray over it, seeking the Holy Spirit’s guidance. Remember that God honours bold faith and equips those who obey. Keep your vision clear, trust the process, and watch as God guides you to success.
