With the New Year just a few weeks old, many people have already made a list of New Year’s resolutions. I’m sure that for many people, the #1 resolution is to lose weight. For some it may be that last 5 or 10 pounds, for others it may be many more pounds. For many people this resolution is several years old as it’s on the top of the list every year. But, most New Year’s resolutions don’t last for more than a few months. Most gyms and exercise facilities will be packed for the next few months, and then come spring, all is lost and the New Year’s resolutions are down the drain. Why is that? 

Well, first of all, most people really don’t have a concrete plan and a goal to strive for. Our goals should be written down and reviewed every day, such as, I have lost 20 pounds and I’m in the best shape ever.  Or, you can use a deadline goal, such as, I will lose 20 pounds by May 1, 2010. I have no explanation why goals work, but I have always accomplished what I set out to do by using a goal setting plan and reading it once or twice a day. You might even want to get a picture of a person who has the shape that you admire and put it on your refrigerator and/or mirror in your bathroom. Get a vision and a goal that you want to accomplish, concentrate on it, think about it, speak positively about it and you will accomplish it. Not only will this goal setting plan work for weight loss, but it will work in every area of your life whether it be relationships, the home of your dreams, the country you wish to visit, the financial goals you wish to accomplish and that significant other you wish to meet. After you decide what your goals are, it’s important to have a plan.  Click to Continue...

Today's Word from Joel and Victoria:

Delivered From All
Aren't you glad we serve a Deliverer today? You might feel afflicted today, but God is working to bring you out of that difficult situation. It may not be in the way you thought, but you have to trust that God has your best interest at heart. Afflictions can take on many forms—a sickness or hardship, a temptation, a coworker or family member. There are so many things that can come against us, but God promises in His Word that no weapon formed against us shall prosper! Those afflictions are only temporary. Stand in faith today believing that God is on your side. Remember, you and God are a majority. It doesn't matter what your circumstances look like, get up every morning and say, “This is the day that the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it.” As you stand and trust the Lord, He will deliver you out of all your afflictions, and you'll see His hand of blessing in every area of your life.

A Prayer for Today
"Father in heaven, thank You for being my Deliverer. I trust that You have a good plan for me and that You are working behind the scenes on my behalf. Thank You for Your strength and peace in every area of my life. In Jesus' Name. Amen."
