1. Determine your present position "Abraham was now old and well advance in years, and the Lord had blessed him in every way." Genesis 24:1 (NIV) Where am I now? Where are you spiritually, financially, emotionally, relationally, physically, and occupationally? What would I like to change?
2. Be Specific about what you want Don’t get a wife for my son from the Canaanite girls. Instead, go back ... to the land of my relatives and get a wife for my son" (Genesis 24:3-4NIV) Ask yourself these four questions: ANO ANG GUSTO KO MAGING? ANO ANG GUSTO KO MAGKAROON? BAKIT GUSTO KO ITO?
3. Look for God’s promise Abraham said, "The Lord brought me from the land of my relatives to this land and he has solemnly promised me that would give this land to my descendants." Genesis 24:7(NCV) Kapag nag -set ka ng goal, don’t focus on the problems, focus on the promises. Find a promise in God’s Word that will take you to your goal.
4. Ask God to help you "O Lord, God of my master, Abraham," he prayed. "Please give me success today, and show unfailing love to my master, Abraham." Genesis 24:12 (NLT) Ipinag pray mo ba ang iyong mga goals? Ipinag pray mo ba ang iyong future?Ipinag pray mo ba ang iyong mga pangarap?
5. Identify the barriers The servant said to him, "What if the woman does not want to return with me to this land?" Genesis 24:5 (NCV) What are the barriers, obstacles, and road blocks in your way?
6. Create a step-by-step plan "O Lord, God of my master, Abraham, please give me success on this mission. See, I am standing here beside this spring. This is my request. When a young woman comes to draw water, I will say to her, ’Please give me a little drink of water from your jug.’ If she says, ’Yes, have a drink, and I will draw water for your camels, too,’ let her be the one you have selected to be the wife of my master’s son." (Genesis 24:42-44 NLT) Determine your schedule, your deadlines, and your timetable.
7. Be patient and persistent "Without saying a word, [he] watched her closely to learn whether or not the Lord had made his journey succeed. Genesis 24:21 (NIV), "Later, after he got invited to Rebekah’s house for dinner, the Bible says, "The food was set before him (Eliezer), but he said, ’I will not eat until I have told you what I have to say’" (Genesis 24:33 NIV).
8. You must pay the price Genesis 24:53 says, "Then he brought out gold and silver and articles of clothing and gave them to Rebekah; he also gave expensive gifts to her brother and her mother." Great goals require great sacrifice. If you are serious about getting a focused life you need to ask three questions. What will it cost? Ano o gaano ang willing mo ibigay para sa pangarap mo?
