Success according to God

hi all, hoped all of you had a nice blue monday yesterday, i believe by now you should be warmed up already for this new week. anyways....today, let's tok about success....not only success but success according to God, some of you might ask.....wat's the difference? but let me assure you, there is definitely a difference....worldly success and Godly success come from 2 different worlds so let's start.

wouldn't it be nice if we could uncover a few "secrets" to success ? (most of us would love to).....but guess wat ? we can't. why ? becoz the keys to success are simply those good, old-fashioned, common sense principles that we've heard of since we were kids. and the good news is this: those principles really do work.

so....who wants to be successful? then here are a few things that we should do:

1. put God first......in every aspect of our lives, including our career

2. wherever you happen to be, be the best you can be: giving our best is a habit-forming, so give our best everytime we go to work

3. keep learning: the future belongs to those who are willing to do the work that's required to prepare for it

4. have patience and perseverance....rome wasn't built in a day, and the same goes for our lives

5. when we make a wrong turn and find ourselves at the end of a dead end street.....turn around sooner rather than later

and above all, remember this : genuine success has little to do with fame or fortune, it has everything to do with God's gift of love and HIS promise of salvation...so dun try and imitate wat those famed people are doing or sit there and pray for luck to come.....coz it is not gonna work.

if you have accepted Christ as your personal Saviour, you are already a towering success in the eyes of God (that's how much HE loves us man), but of course there is still more that you can do. so....your task- as a believer who has been touched by God's grace - is to accept the spiritual abundance and peace that HE offers through the person of HIS SON (JESUS). then, you can share the healing message of God's love and HIS abundance with a world that desperately needs both. when you do, you would have reached the pinnacle of success....becoz this is wat exactly God wants us to do (Matt 28: 18-20)

so wat are you waiting for?.....have faith in God and get busy now no matter where you are....whether at home, in school, uni, college, or work place....excel as children of God wherever you are and on top of that do what HE has in plan for us all......good day !!!

quote of the day:

"There is nothing more important in any life than the constantly enjoyed presence of the Lord. There is nothing more vital, for without it we shall make mistakes, and without it we shall be defeated." by Alan Redpath
