A Precious Promise: Success<\/u><\/strong>
\nRemember the Lord your God. He is the one who gives you power to be successful,…<\/em>\u00a0 Deuteronomy 8:18<\/p>\n

Thoughts:
\n<\/u><\/strong>God told the Israelites to obey the Law and they would have good success.
\n“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.”<\/em>\u00a0 Joshua 1:8<\/p>\n

As believers in Christ we have been blessed with good success because Jesus came and fulfilled the Law. Therefore, in Christ, we will have good success, for in Christ, God has given us all the spiritual blessings we will ever need to succeed!
\n\u201cBlessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,\u201d\u00a0 <\/em>Ephesians 1:3<\/p>\n

As believers, God has placed His Holy Spirit within us to show us just what those spiritual blessings are and then to help us know how we can use them in our daily lives to assure good success each day.
\nJesus said in John 14:26 “But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Believers, all we need to do is read the word of God daily and then listen and obey what the Spirit teaches us, for He will always lead and guide us according to God’s word, and then we will have good success.<\/p>\n

Prayer: <\/u><\/strong>
\nDear God,
\nI want true good success which is what comes from You!
\nThank You that in Christ, I have all I will ever need to succeed.<\/p>\n

Each day I will determine to make it my goal to live my life learning of and walking in the blessings You have provided to me so that I will be truly successful!\u00a0 Thank You, God, for Your goodness and mercy to me.<\/p>\n

Thank You for sending Your Holy Spirit to dwell within me, to lead me and guide me to all truth, and give me the power and wisdom to live successfully for You.<\/p>\n

In Jesus precious name, I pray. Amen<\/p>\n
