Give God's Word Priority And See Good Success

Joshua 1:8
8This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.

In life there is good success and bad success. Bad success is the kind of success which robs you of time with your family, friends and church, and destroys your health and relationships. Good success, on the other hand, prospers you in every area of your life.

Now, God wants you to enjoy good success and the key to this lies in what God told Joshua when he took over the reins after the death of his leader Moses — “This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you shall have good success.” Spending time daily in God’s Word will give you godly wisdom which will make your way prosperous and give you good success.

“Pastor, you make it sound so simple — all I need to do is spend time in God’s Word?”

Well, just look at how Joshua’s life turned out in the end. When Joshua died, “they buried him within the border of his inheritance at Timnath Serah, which is in the mountains of Ephraim, on the north side of Mount Gaash”. (Joshua 24:30) Joshua had a whole mountain for his inheritance! He was prosperous and successful!

It was also said that Israel served the Lord, not idols or other gods, all the days of Joshua’s life. (Joshua 24:31) This means that while Joshua was around, people were impacted for God’s glory.

And at the end of his life, a fulfilled Joshua had this to say, “But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” (Joshua 24:15) Having your family with you, loving God and serving Him, is the most important success and greatest prosperity that you can ever have.

Beloved, when God’s Word takes priority in your daily life, you will not only have a blessed bank account, but also a blessed ministry, family and life!

I Will Sing by Don Moen

Everyday, we complain about everything...

... gas prices rising up, dirty politicians, no salary increase , stockmarket falling, bad relationships, not having a job--or even if one has a job, still whine about it because of some b*chy colleagues and an unpredictable boss.

Yes.

We get pissed off with all the intractable people around us and yet we never managed to look deeply into ourselves what's really going on.

Is something wrong with the world around us..or Is there something wrong IN US?

We live in impulses.
And I believe with impulses ...comes everything...
We reap what we sow goes the famous adage.

But with Jesus...nothing could go wrong.
Trust me.

Wih Him right now, I am able to understand the world and not being affected by it.
Why there is tsunamis, earthquakes, floods, terrorism, death, etc...
name it.

With Jesus, you'd come to know the truth...and the truth shall set you free!

The Days Of Take, Take And Take Have Come

1 Corinthians 2:12
12Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God.

You are a child of the Most High God and He wants you to know the things that have been freely given to you. He wants you to receive them freely although it cost Him His Son. This is His love towards you — He paid the price, but He wants you to receive freely!

Perhaps you’re asking the Lord, “How is it that I don’t have this, God? And why do I have so little of that?”

I believe He says to you, “What do you lack, my child? Health? Take it! It has been paid for with the life of My Son!

“Do you need peace of mind? My Son wore the crown of thorns on His head to give it to you. Take it!

“Lack wisdom? Take My wisdom!

“Need victory? Victory is not something you attain. It is a gift to be received. Take it!

“Take My prosperity! Take My favour! Every time you come into My Presence, take, and take some more!”

God, your heavenly Father, wants you to receive like the prodigal son, who deserved nothing, but received everything! (Luke 15:11–24) God delights in giving freely. And He delights in you receiving freely because it shows that you value and appreciate His Son’s sacrifice.

You miss it when you are busy trying to earn what has been freely given to you, when you think that you must do more for God to bless you, or that you must pay the price for it. God cannot give it to you based on your works because if it is by works, it is no longer by grace. You frustrate the grace of God and make light of Jesus’ work at Calvary.

The days of trying, earning and doing are over. The days of take, take and take have come. Take and you will bring pleasure to God’s heart. Say to Him, “Oh Father, I don’t even have the faith to believe, so I take Your faith as a gift! I live by the faith of the Son of God to believe for my miracle right now! In Jesus’ name, Amen!”

The Beauty Of Living in God's Love

I love this sermon by Pastor Prince of New Creation Church. It changes my perspective in everything that I do..Hear for yourself..:)

Heaven and earth can pass away..
God's words will never pass away.
He endures till the end,.
I have... what God says I have,
I am... God says I am.
God said it...
That settles it.
