The only GOAL you need for 2019

It’s that time of year when we start thinking “next year” I’m going to loose weight, go to the gym, eat healthy, get organized, start a new career …. you fill in the blank. We think about what’s next and how we can improve.

Today I want to share with you the ONLY GOAL we really need in order to achieve all those other goals on our list and I believe this 5,000% in my heart to be true. Before I share my secret I want us to look at the The Parable of the Wise and Foolish Virgins from Matthew 25:1-13 NKJV

“Then the kingdom of heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2 Now five of them were wise, and five were foolish. 3 Those who were foolish took their lamps and took no oil with them, 4 but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. 5 But while the bridegroom was delayed, they all slumbered and slept.

6 “And at midnight a cry was heard: ‘Behold, the bridegroom [a]is coming; go out to meet him!’ 7 Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps. 8 And the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’ 9 But the wise answered, saying, ‘No, lest there should not be enough for us and you; but go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.’ 10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding; and the door was shut.

11 “Afterward the other virgins came also, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us!’ 12 But he answered and said, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, I do not know you.’

13 “Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.

I want to focus in on verse 8, “and the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.” The lamp oil represents spiritual preparation. Our relationship with God (spiritual preparation) cannot be borrowed or bought. It is up to us individually to build our relationship with the Lord. It is vital that we take time to earnestly know God, like our best friend. That we truly have an intimate personal relationship with Jesus.

Let’s be honest, while all of our new years goals are important to us and we always want to improve ourselves, the truth is we never know when our last breath will be. We do not know when we will meet the Lord face to face. And no matter what, when we meet Him we do not want to hear “I do not know you.”

I want to commission you and challenge you to make your #1 goal for 2019 to be your relationship with the Lord.
