MoneyWalk 128: Mission, Planning, Vision, & Goals

This program will help you undo financial bondage.

You need a mission in life otherwise you'll be unfulfilled, useless to other people, and a drain on your family, friends, and society. Most of the time, people without a mission tend to display negativity, depression, needy personalities, and slothfulness. Others whose mission has not been given and guided by Almighty God give themselves numerous tasks that God won't recognize when they stand before Him in judgment even if their accomplishments are enormously famous and talked about on earth. They have the wrong mission because they do not first seek God’s glory in what they do and the skill they display and the people they help.

God wants us to understand that the Great Commission is the right mission and in pursuing it we must follow the great commandment as a united body of believers by preaching the gospel to every person using an abundant portion of our voices, lives, money, time, and other resources. You should have a long-range vision and short-term goals you employ in order to fulfill this mission: specifically your part of it. It will take continual planning to reach your goals, achieve your vision, and fulfill your mission. If you don't write your plan out on a medium that you can frequently re-read and periodically adjust (such as a computer), specific components will be lost to your memory overtime and you will fail to do all that you should do in leading other people to Jesus Christ and giving Him glory.

Research has shown that people who keep their vision and goals before them on paper achieve much more than those who plan only in their heads and way more than those who don't plan at all. If you don't currently know what your specific vision and goals should be, start or keep developing a daily praise, worship, and prayer relationship with the Lord, keep serving in your local church, and keep learning and disciplining yourself to manage money properly. In this way, you will please the heart of God by drawing closer to Him, you can support God’s church and build His kingdom in the hearts of men, women, and children by giving tithes and offerings and physically helping other believers minister to the huddled masses.

Satan is continually trying to blind and lead sinners and Christians down into the pit of hell, so he and the fallen angels won’t be so lonely there. However, as you get busy working on the mission identified in the bible through someone else’s vision and goals (your local church pastor), in due time God will show you and other church leaders specifically what He has called you to do.
