3. 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?

4. 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?

5. 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.

6. 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?

7. 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?

8. 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.

9. 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).

10. 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?
