HAVING GOOD SUCCESS WITH GOD: IT’S ABOUT DILIGENCE NOT A COINCIDENCE!
“This book of the law shall not depart out of thy MOUTH; but thou shalt MEDITATE therein day and night, that thou mayest OBSERVE to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt MAKE thy way PROSPEROUS, and then thou shalt have GOOD SUCCESS” Joshua 1:8.
SUCCESS to me is turning FAILURE inside out, and does not happen by COINCIDENCE. It’s a consequence of God’s WORD at work; and an act of DILIGENCE with the principles of RESPONSIBILITY and ACCOUNTABILITY and PRUDENCE toward maximising the God given resources of life – TIME, FINANCE, SKILL/TALENT and TOOL/MATERIAL and PEOPLE. And of a TRUTH, you need to know full well that God does miracle but not magic; hence, Success like Miracle are CAUSE to happen by the WORD and are not coincidental – meaning they don’t happen by coincidence.
Success in life is relative in terms but by virtue of grace you can be able to achieve success or be successful in that desired purposeful objective of life because that’s the father God intent for you. (Romans 8:28-30; 3 John 2, Luke 12:32; Psalms 35:27; Job 36:11; Matthew 6:33).
When one walks in the path of diligence, and along the course with the rules of the game as in the Word of God, good success is inevitable; for God REWARDS DILIGENCE and over time you will intermingle with success and successful people in life and grace with God.
“Seest thou a man DILIGENT in his BUSINESS? he shall STAND before KINGS (HONOUR, NOBLE, DIGNITY); he shall not STAND before MEAN (OBSCURED, UNPRODUCTIVE) men” Proverbs 22:29 (Emphasis Mine).
Begin your day with DILIGENCE, which is doing life and making effort steadfastly, consistently and smartly in your set goal and objective; and over time, you will soonest share the joy of good success as many have achieved and keep achieving.
Walk in DILIGENCE. Don’t be in a HASTE to be a success as per been rich, you may find yourself doing the wrong and HEAVEN will not be on your side. When you believe God for your SUCCESS, you don’t have to COMPETE and COMPARE with any, knowing that DILIGENCE with God will pay off for your good in Him, in grace and in His BLESSEDNESS in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.
SELAH – PAUSE AND THINK.
