True Success

The world measures success by wealth, status, and achievements. It’s important to understand that true success is fulfilling GOD's purpose for our lives and living in a way that glorifies Him.  Here are 4 aspects of success according to the Bible:

1. Success is Seeking God First. Matthew 6: 33 says "Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need. 

2. Success is about trusting him and surrendering our plans to GOD.  Proverbs 16:3 says Commit your actions to the LORD, and your plans will succeed"

3.  Success in God's eyes is closely tied to knowing and living according to His Word. Joshua 1:8  says" Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful."

4.  Success is Using Our Gifts for God’s Glory - 1 Peter 4:10-11 says, "Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's grace in its various forms. If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ." True success involves using the talents and abilities God has given us to serve others and glorify Him.

True success in GODs eyes is about knowing and living according to His Word, surrendering to Him by always putting him first in your life and using your gifts to glorify him by serving others. Apply these  practices to your life to achieve true success in GOD's eyes.  

Let's pray. Dear Heavenly Father, Thank You for showing us what true success looks like through Your Word. Help us to align our lives with Your will by seeking you first,  trusting you, living according to your Word and to use our gifts to glorify You. May our lives be a testament to Your grace and faithfulness. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
