Success

As Christian we must understand that God’s plan for us is to succeed.

Jeremiah 29:11

“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.”

Also God expressed this further in 3 John 1:2 (Amp.)

“Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in every way and (that your body) may keep well, even as (I Know) your soul keeps well and prosper.”

Success in any aspect of our lives is an accomplishment of an assignment, it is the product of a discovery, it is not a destination, it is  continuous and it is a favourable outcome of ones aim.

From creation, man was built for success that is why in us we crave to be successful.

Genesis 1:28

“And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.”

In life to be successful, our success do not just happen by chance.  If we must succeed, we must take responsibility to make it happen.

For us to succeed, one thing is very vital; that is vision.  Vision is the blue print of where one is heading to as a Lawyer. 

Habakkuk 2:2

“And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.”

Lack of vision leads to frustration and little or no achievement

Hosea 4:6

“My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.”

Faith is the force that transfer vision on paper to reality.  Faith helps you see your glorious end from where you are standing thereby keeping hope alive.  More so, Faith is now Hebrew 11:1 

“Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.”

Faith does not give room for procrastination and faith is the way to obtain good reports.

On the road to success, there is the place of hard work.

Proverbs 14:23

“In all labour there is profit: but the talk of the lips tendeth only to penury.”

Let us learn to do more work and less talk, understanding the times and seasons.
