Created to Succeed 2

Written by Uyoyou Christiana Charles-Iyoha

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.
