Daily Bread: The Pathway For Success
Good morning Wednesday......
Father thank You for this NEW day, please continue to fill my HEART & MIND with Your LOVE & TRUTH and TRANSFORM my ordinary day into an extraordinary day bringing glory to Your Name!
The Pathway for Success
A blessed life is one that will know success. Believe it or not, success is a Bible word.
In Joshua 1:8 God promises that meditating on His word and living by it will, "...make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success."
What does success look like to you?
You may have heard the saying, "Success is a journey, not a destination; the doing is often more important than the outcome." This is true of the blessed man's life. Too many people have the idea that success is a formula. Books have been written promising to reveal the "secret of success" but the truth is, success is a pathway, a lifelong approach to living by God's principles.
Hebrews 6:12 tells us that the promises of God are accessed through faith and patience. Faith is believing, but patience is the decision to keep on believing until those promises are realised. Patience is faith's best friend and without it, your life quickly gets off-course and confused - especially when you want to follow God's plan for your life. Impatience will cause you to make unwise or rash decisions because you haven't factored in the element of time.
A successful farmer understands the value of time. He sows his seed according to the crop he wants to harvest but he doesn't expect the crop to grow overnight! It takes time for anything of value to develop, and the same is true in your life. Seed time harvest.
Of course, life has a way of throwing curve-balls while the "seeds of success" are in the ground. But take a leaf out of the righteous man of Psalm 112's book:
•His heart is established He is anchored. There is foundation in his life.
•He will not be afraid he has confidence and faith in God to see him through challenges to the desired outcome.
PRAYER: Lord, help me to be patient as I wait for Your promises over my life to be fulfilled. Fill my heart with hope and trust, knowing You are a good God and You desire good things for my life.
Make the daily decision to believe God at His Word, and that His promise for you is for success as you sow the seeds of faith and patience.
