DAY 3 OF 10

The third law of progression: A Desperate Need to Accomplish The Goal

To move forward in life, we should be desperate enough to accomplish our goal. In other words, we’ve got to want it real bad. However, whatever it is that we want should be in accordance with God’s will.

Often, we would like to move out of a life of mediocrity to one of accomplishment. But we do not make progress because we are not desperate enough to accomplish anything. We don’t desire our goals enough. In the passage above we come across a blind beggar who on realizing that Jesus was passing by, calls out to Him to heal him. Even though the crowd warns him to shut up, he keeps calling out to Jesus—in fact, he gets louder. This shows the level of his desperateness. He was tired of being blind; he was tired of being stuck in a situation that seemingly had no way out; he wanted change real bad. And because of his desperation, he did receive his healing.

This beggar was very sure about what he wanted—he did not want money or shelter–and he did not compromise on it; not even an angry crowd could stop him. When we want something real bad, no obstacle can hinder us from getting it. Jesus’ parting words to the beggar were “Your faith has made you well”. In other words, the strength of his desire to get healed got him his healing.

Take another look at your personal mission statement. Are you desperate to accomplish it or are you just hoping that you will get around to it someday? Does the number of obstacles in the way hamper you? Remember, nothing can stop progress that is in line with God’s will, if only you want it badly enough.

About this Plan

Spiritual Laws Of Progression

God's desire for His Children is for them to prosper,grow and make progress and not just exist and survive. However we notice that while few progress most barely get through. Is our God partial to bless only few? As we browse through the Bible we see several instances of God accomplishing extraordinary achievements through ordinary people. As we we study the lives of these individuals we recognise specific principles at work, these principles are the Laws of Progression which when practised will cause individuals to excel and not just exist.
