Scriptural Keys to Success in Life part 2

I WILL NEVER LEAVE OR FORSAKE YOU. JOSHUA 1:5 NIV
Imagine trying to fill the shoes Moses walked in. Joshua wondered,’ do I have what it takes?’ then God told him: (a) ‘ I will give you every place where you set your foot’ (Joshua 1:3NIV) God promises success for those who have the faith to take the first step, and keep walking with Him regardless of what they encounter. That means showing up earlier, staying later and working harder. (b) No one will be able to stand up against you all the days of your life’ (Joshua 1:5 NIV). Expect opposition; certain people will always ‘stand up against you.’ In his book High Maintenance Relationships, Les parrot identifies the types who will do this: critics who constantly complain or give unwanted advice. Martyrs who are forever the victim and wracked with self pity. Wet blanket who are pessimistic and habitually negative. Steamrollers who are blindly insensitive to others. Gossips that always spread rumours and leak secrets. Control freaks who are on able to let go and let things be. Back stabbers who are two faced. Green eyed monsters who seethe with envy. Volcanoes who build steam and are always ready to erupt. Sponges who are always so needy and never give nothing. Competitor who always keep tracks of tit-for-tat. (c)’Be strong because you will lead this people to inherit the land’ (JOSHUA 1:6 NIV) successful people are not necessarily more gifted, they are just more passionate. What do you pray about? Cry about? Dream about? What arer you willing to risk everything for? That’s the well from which you’ll draw your strength and strategies when you experience setbacks, when others disappoint you, when jobs feel too big and you feel too small.
Pray for passion today.
