In the book of
Luke Chapter 10 verse 19, the Bible records that God has given authority to His
children to trample on snakes and scorpions and all the power of the enemy and
that none of the power of the enemy can hurt the children of God. Fantastic!
But why would God make such a promise? He created you to succeed. If He created
you to fail, He will not give you the authority to trample on snakes and
scorpions and all the power of the enemy which represent the various challenges
in life that make you want to throw in the towel, give up and opt for failure.
Beloved, you are
divinely designed to succeed. Therefore, unpack and throw out the devil’s
filthy garments of failure comprising all the lies he has whispered to you as
to why you should fail. They are lies because he did not create you. Secondly,
those lies are designed to make you turn against God so that you walk in
opposition to the Person Who created you to succeed and is the only One can
help you succeed.
The wisdom you
need to succeed in life is in Christ Jesus. The more you know Jesus, the easier
it will be for you to succeed in life. This
is because the more you know Jesus, the more you know your rights and
privileges in Christ Jesus and the more aware you become of your purpose for
existence on planet earth. You will discover that you were not created to
simply occupy space on planet earth but you were created to be a blessing to
humanity through the fulfillment of your divine purpose.
Purpose defines
success and achievement as well as energizes you, gives you discipline, teaches
you successful resource mobilization, allocation and management. While Jesus
Christ is the standard, a couple of other Biblical examples such as the Virtuous
woman of Proverbs Chapter 31 verses 10 to 31, Joseph, Nehemiah, Esther, Mary
the mother of Jesus Christ and the Apostle Paul are shining examples of people
who fulfilled divine purpose.
Connect to divine purpose, overcome all the challenges on your way and take your place on Success Street. See you there. Shalom.
