Avoiding evil and injustice by applying past patterns of
God's providence to presently unfolding events
Provident care of futurity; foreknowledge accompanied with
prudence in guarding against evil.
Webster's, 1st ed., 1828
God's character is unchanging. He deals with man according to His
Covenant.
I have foresight because I am working for the Kingdom of God.
God has made enough of His
plan known to me to enable me to plan successfully.
I am exercising dominion
over the whole earth, and thus my perspective is global.
Because I judge
righteously, and have spiritual discernment, I anticipate the
acts of others.
Because my vision is Theo-centric, my perspective is not
limited to my wing-span.
I am future-oriented.
I am becoming more and more farsighted.
My parents wanted me to be prudent, and my judicious life is an
honor to their desires.
My friends know me to be careful, because I have learned from
the past and can apply those lessons to the future.
My family sees me becoming more and more sagacious.
My parents are proud of my sapient life.
My circumspect habits are an asset to my community.
Those I work with are delighted that I am becoming more and
more visionary.
I am not afraid to be looking ahead in a culture that is
looking only at itself.
People around me can depend on me to anticipate future
conditions.
The Spirit empowers me to be prescient.
I often think about how I can be prepared for the
unpredictable.
My spirit reverberates with readiness.
These words resonate in my being; my study of my Sovereign God
and His Word makes them a part of my life

And we know that all things work together for good to those
who love God, to those who are the called according to His
purpose. For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be
conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn
among many brethren.
-- Romans 8:28-29
I have remembered Thy Name, O LORD, in the night, and have
kept Thy Law.
-- Psalm 119:55
This isn't that New Age
"Positive Thinking" stuff, is it??
