Welcome to Be Bold for Jesus!
Our mission is to help you walk boldly in your faith and follow Jesus with confidence. Led by Lee and Jaclyn Arnold, we teach the Bible in a way that transforms your heart and equips you to live out God’s truth every day.
In today’s message:
“Is Setting New Year’s Goals, Biblical?”
As we approach a new year, we explore what Scripture really says about planning, goal setting, and purpose. From Genesis to the New Testament, the Bible reveals that God is not against planning—He is against prideful, self-directed planning. Biblical goal setting is stewardship under surrender.
Through the lives of Joseph, Moses, Nehemiah, Jesus, Paul, and James, we see that God calls His people to plan wisely, work diligently, delegate humbly, and trust Him completely with the outcome.
This message reveals key truths:
God is a planner by nature, and we are made in His image.
Planning is biblical when it is submitted to the Lord.
Prayer and planning are meant to work together.
Delegation prevents burnout and multiplies impact.
God establishes our steps, even when He redirects our plans.
The reminder for us today:
“Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and He will establish your plans.” — Proverbs 16:3
“In their hearts humans plan their course, but the LORD establishes their steps.” — Proverbs 16:9
“If it is the Lord’s will, we will live and do this or that.” — James 4:15
As we step into 2026, we are encouraged not to chase worldly resolutions, but to seek first the Kingdom of God—writing our plans in pencil, holding them with open hands, and trusting the Lord to lead every step.
If God is calling you to plan, grow, and move forward—do so in humility, obedience, and faith. When Jesus leads the plan, our goals don’t just change us—they advance the Kingdom.
