Progressing Forward Series
Get Organized II
Femi Ojo | 14 May 2023
In the first message in this series, we established the fact that God desires for all His children to progress forward in life. He desires so much so that He sent His only begotten son, our Lord Jesus, to the Earth to model what it means to progress forward in life.
We also established that in order to begin progressing forward in life, we need to receive a dream for our lives from God.
After receiving or gaining more clarity about God’s dream for our lives, the next thing we need to do in order to continue on the journey of progressing forward in life is to Get organized.
Specifically, we need to get our lives organized for progressing forward. In other words, we need to structure our lives in such a way that it can sustainably make the journey from where we are to the dream destination that God has envisioned for our lives.
