Jer 29:11 - KJV
For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
Jer 29:11 – The Message Bible
I know what I'm doing. I have it all planned out — plans to take care of you, not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for.
SUCCESS YOUR BIRTHRIGHT
At new birth (When you were born again/Surrendered your life to Jesus Christ – entered into the family of God), you entered into a covenant relationship with God. This covenant covers all areas of your life. God has done everything to make you a success. He has made a grand design of success for you.A lot of God’s people lack the knowledge of THIS TRUTH. They do not know that God has planned and programmed them for success. So they continue to live purposelessly and with a wrong mindset. They do not have knowledge of their success in Christ Jesus. They are in a confused state.
This is the picture of many believers today. They are only serving God; they do not know their right nor have knowledge of God’s blessings for them.
God is not against SUCCESS
God is not against greatness. He is not against prosperity. He is not against success. He is the author of them all. God is the originator of success(Isaiah 45:7). No one is more successful than Him. He is not against your success. He is happy to see you succeed in life.Galatians 3:13 - KJV
"Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every man that hangeth on a tree: that the blessings of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith"
He knows you are a seed of Abraham and so you are an heir of the covenant. The covenant is not for Abraham’s alone. It is your covenant with God. We call it Abraham’s covenant because he received it on our behalf. But it is yours as much as it is Abraham’s. God will fulfill it to you as much as He was to Abraham. You are a Abraham’s child by faith. You have God’s success covenant.
"Ye are the light of the world, a city that is set on an hill cannot be hid, Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel but on a candle stick and it giveth light to all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven" - Matthew 5:14-16
IGNORANCE IS AN INFIRMITY
Ignorance a dreadful disease (infirmity). It can prevent people from accessing their birthright. Knowledge has a way of affecting and influencing an individual’s personality and well-being. If you do not know something, you cannot use it. You cannot reap what you have not sown. You cannot use knowledge you do not possess. That is why wise men say, "Knowledge is power." This is very true. Knowledge empowers. Here at FaithSuccess, we empower people by giving the right knowledge for development and Success. Ignorance (the absence of knowledge) kills faster than old age."My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge" - Hosea 4:6
If God’s people are destroyed for lack of knowledge, therefore it can be said that people can be built up and delivered from evil by knowledge. Knowledge is very important in this life. As Believers knowledge of the Word of God is essential. Even in the Secular world, there is virtually any sector in which knowledge is not needed.
Only fools despise knowledge.
Naturally, life is full of troubles. It can be adequately described as a bed of troubles. But Christ has promised to keep us in perfect peace IF WE SET OUR MINDS ON HIM, not on the economic chaos, life problems, corruption in the society etc.
SUCCESS IS NOT A MATTER OF CHANCE. It has no relevance to your natural background. (Educated parents, connections, wealthy family members etc). POWER is not the key to success, 1 Samuel 2:9 – NCV.
David had success in all his ways, he was not from the wealthiest clan in Isreal (I Sam 18:14)
FAITH BRINGS SUCCESS
"For verily I say unto you, that whosoever shall say unto this mountain, be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea, AND SHALL NOT DOUBT IN HIS HEART, BUT SHALL BELIEVE (IN HIS HEART) that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith" - Mark 11:23It is clear from this statement that faith brings success. The faith being talked about in the above scripture is heart faith not head faith. It is not what comes out of your head that is established, but the one that proceeds from the heart. Paul says, "With the heart, man believeth ..." (Romans 10:10). Not with the head!
You may say I have tried this before but did not get SUCCESS, yes you have tried it with your head not your heart (by faith). Jesus cannot lie (I would call man a liar instead of calling God a liar). Try it now in faith (heart faith) and harvest your Success.
