Episode 98 - What is Most Important

What is most important? 

 

Hebrews 12:1 

Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us…

 

Examine:

• Faith
• Intention
• Association

 

Faith: How is your faith walk? I don’t necessarily mean your spiritual walk, but what are you filled with faith for? What are you believing God for? Faith = Confidence = Trusting in the promises of God.

 

Intention: Give yourself credit for your good intentions… you have a dream. Give yourself credit for stepping out of that comfort zone… The road to hell is paved with good intention…intention not acted upon. What do you intend to do, accomplish but have lost sight of the target? Another word for intention is AIM. Grab that bow and arrow, aim for the bullseye on the target and move… shoot.

 

Association: Who are you hanging around with? Are they people who are emotionally secure? Financially successful? Have a great family? Have a great/successful life? Yes you are meant to invest in others, but you also need to be around people who will lift you to a new level. Do you need to improve your associations? 

 

Is this serving you, your goals, your mission? If not - you must remove it. 

 

Alignment:  Aligning life with faith is really about making sure what we believe and what we do flow together. 

Steps to Align Life with Faith and Intention 1. Deepen Your Relationship with God

• Spend time daily in prayer, Scripture, or meditation.
• Seek God’s guidance before making decisions.
• Let faith shape your inner thoughts, not just your outer actions.

2. Live Out Your Values

• Let integrity, kindness, forgiveness, and compassion guide your choices.
• Ask: Does this action reflect God’s character in me?

3. Prioritize Community & Service

• Surround yourself with people who share and encourage your faith.
• Serve others through generosity, hospitality, and acts of love.

4. Integrate Faith into Daily Life

• Work: Approach it as service and stewardship.
• Health: Treat your body as God’s temple through care and discipline.
• Relationships: Practice love, patience, and reconciliation.

5. Seek Spiritual Growth Continually

• Study, worship, and fellowship consistently.
• Be open to correction, growth, and God’s redirection.
• Stay humble and willing to learn.

6. Rest & Trust in God

• Avoid striving in your own strength alone.
• Aligning with faith means surrender—trusting God with the outcomes of your efforts.

A Guiding Question

 “Does this bring me closer to God’s purpose for my life, or pull me away from it?”

“Is this in alignment with my values?”
