DEAR LORD, I NEED SUCCESS

Post date: Feb 20, 2013 5:25:27 AM

One of the greatest things you should always desire in life and never to give up is have success in the things you are presently doing. Do not delay the days of your desire for success by the things that is happening around you, do not despise what you are doing and do not look down on yourself even when others do, never be discouraged repeating yourself over again even when people are out to discourage and frustrate you. Do not despise your present little success, your present location and your present profession. They and you, may be small today, but will never remain the same tomorrow. All great things start small and grow to greatness; God is taking you to that level in life as you consistently and faithfully pray and follow Him.  

Despite what is going on within, in your office and business, in all the nations around the world, in families and organizations, despite the physical and spiritual battles that invades your deserved peace and privacy every day, every time and every night, despite the struggles with almost everything in life, misunderstanding, failures, delays, spiritual and physical emptiness, the truth is that, in all these things our Father, the Almighty God who created all things and made you in His own image, sees your struggles; He has no program for your failure, and has no intent to make or to keep you a failure. He wants you to recover if you have not, to be a success and grow in His presence. He had put all necessary things in place that you will achieve it. The joy is that though you may feel small and yet to be successful, you are making progress, you are not where you were last year or some years ago, God is opening doors for you.   

In making a way for success, God created all things before making Adam and Eve, thereafter He placed them where they will be useful and successful with this instruction on what to do: “And the Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to tend and guard and keep it” Genesis 2:15. To Adam and Eve, the instruction to remain successful was embedded in doing three things, obedience to God in what they do; diligence in guarding what was committed to their trust and the ability to preserve them. Those instructions are still valid today and we must follow them if we desire to be, and to remain successful.   

Success is not cheap and does not come easily to everyone. Despite any form of challenge that you will ever encounter in life, everything that will be successful must follow this principle (obedience to God, diligence in guarding what you have and your willingness and ability to preserve them).Irrespective of what you have at hand, irrespective of what you are doing and irrespective of your excellent and well thought out plans, nothing will succeed if you fail to follow these three principles. Obedience, diligence and preservation are all weighted equally. God want you to increase, to multiply what is in your hands and to be very successful.  

God has placed you where you are right now to succeed, to make the very best out of it until He says otherwise. He is not changing your location and profession because you are a failure, when He finally changes your location and profession, He intend to take you to a greater level of success. Don’t compromise your location and profession right now, be at your very best and God will surely take you to His very best as you live in obedience, diligence and prudence.  

God has instituted that everything reproduces itself, success begets success, good manners begets good manners, prudence begets prudence, love begets love, hatred begets hatred, peace begets peace, money begets money, corn begets corn, and good words begets good words. “He becomes poor who works with a slack and idle hand, but the hand of the diligent makes rich” And let us not lose heart and grow weary and faint in acting nobly and doing right, for in due time and at the appointed season we shall reap, if we do not loosen and relax our courage and faint” Proverbs 10:4, Galatians 6:7-9 Your cry for success is genuine and God is willing, able and prepared to make it for you. Follow His principle and you will never miss the reward. For prayer Click here
