Godly Success

 Psalm 128

The text passage above shows us the kind of blessing that those with the fear of the Lord are entitled to.

That God wants you fulfilled, happy, and successful is clear throughout scripture.

You have to believe that God wants you successful if you are going to manifest the God glorifying type of success in your life.

There is godly success.

Psalm 1

There is also success that does not glorify God.

Many people don't manifest godly success in their lives for many reasons, but impatience is a major reason,

It takes patience to walk with God and wait for His time.

Hebrews 6:12

God is a God of timing and order.

Greed is another reason many don't manifest godly success in their life. When opportunities to be seen and make money come their way even if it's in an evil  and dubious way, they seize it.

Satan tempted  Jesus with the glories of this world, he showed Jesus the best of everything this world had to offer but Jesus didn't fall for that temptation.

Satan was ready to offer Jesus the glory of this world in exchange for Jesus's worship!

Jesus as a man of flesh could have sold out to the devil in exchange for the glories of this world.

Jesus would have had everything in exchange for His soul.

What does it profit us to have everything the heart can desire in this life and end up going to hell or have Satan as our boss?

Mark 8:36

Whoever we worship is our lord, our boss, and our god, whether that is Satan or Jehovah.

There are many who are regarded as successful by this world's standards who have sold out to Satan for a earthly kind of success.

There is a kind of success that does not require selling out to the enemy to attain it

This success answers to the blessing of God. This type of success comes with peace, not with sorrow.

Proverbs 10:22

It is the kind of success that gives fulfillment in all aspects of an individual's life.

This kind of success stays with you and in your family/lineage.

1 Kings 9:5

This type of success answers to the promises of God and the covenant of God with an individual.

Diligence and patience is the price tag of this type of success.

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18

The Importance Of The Anointing

Acts 10:38 The anointing is the presence of the Holy Spirit with a person. The anointing speaks, the anointing directs, and the anointing teaches people what they need to know and do. 1 John 2:27 You need the anointing. You can grow in the anointing. It is also possible to depart from the anointing. The anointing won't depart from you but you can depart from the anointing. You should remain in Him. It is worth it investing time to understand the your anointing, growing in your anointing and obeying the anointing. As you get to know a person better by spending time with them, so it is with the anointing in your life. With the anointing, you can't go wrong. The anointing strategically positions you in God's kingdom and in life. Jesus was full of the Holy Spirit. Colossians 2:9 Jesus had the anointing when He was here on earth. Jesus is our example of what our life can be when we have the anointing. Hebrews 12:2 Jesus knew His purpose. Luke 2:49 Jesus

Navigating A New Year

 Isaiah  42:16 Our text passage above shows us God is the one who shows us the path to take and leads us in new directions. Your path matters to God. The way you you choose to take is important to God. Your steps are seen by God and ordered by God. Psalm 37:23 The year ahead of you matters to God too. Luke 13:8-9 Each year God has given you the grace to witness, experience, and journey through is another opportunity to be fruitful for God. God wants you to make the most of the year ahead of you to His glory. Human beings do not always know the way and path to go, we can be limited in wisdom. History shows we do not always make the best choices. The year ahead of us will require knowing the way to go, having the wisdom to make the best decisions and choices. Deuteronomy 30:19 To successfully navigate the year we need to stay in God.. To navigate is to find your way through, it is following the right path to a specific destination.
