Study Scripture: Joshua 1:8
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 will have good success. (NKJV)
Have you ever wondered why two people of the same social class don’t succeed at the same pace? It is simply because one is obeying the laws of success and the other is not.
What are these laws?
- The law of positive and scriptural thinking (Proverbs 4:23): you can never grow beyond the way you think. What is happening in your life today is a direct consequence of the way you think. Your life, family, finances and health are the way they are because of the way you think. The most important change you must make in your life is to change the way you think. It is not the environment that makes people but people make the environment. Success starts first and foremost in the mind. Until you begin to accept problem-solving as a lifestyle you will remain grounded. You don’t need more money rather you need a change in your mentality about money. You don’t need a better husband; what you need is a right mindset towards your husband.
Why do you need to think differently?
- You have a life to live
- You have a ministry to pursue
- You have a family to raise.
How do you change the way you think?
- You must embrace problem-solving as a lifestyle (John 2:1-9)
- You must be a committed writer and reader.
- The law of hardwork (Proverbs 22:29, Proverbs 12:11, 10:4): The first instruction that God gave man is work. Poverty answers to laziness. Your future is not a place you are going to, it is happening everyday. Hardwork will defeat talent if talent does not work hard. Start working hard to meet up with your goals.
Success comes by the combination of mental work, hard work and positive speaking (Ephesians 3:20)
Prayer line: Oh Lord, empower my mind to be productive on every side in Jesus name. Amen!
