IF YOU DESIRE TO DISCOVER AND FULFILL YOUR DIVINE DESTINY IN CHRIST IN THIS WORLD, YOU MUST TO DISTINGUISH BETWEEN GOOD SUCCESS AND BAD SUCCESS!

IF YOU DESIRE TO DISCOVER AND FULFILL YOUR DIVINE DESTINY IN CHRIST IN THIS WORLD, YOU MUST TO DISTINGUISH BETWEEN GOOD SUCCESS AND BAD SUCCESS!

It is sad to say that many genuine Christians take all SUCCESSES they achieve or see in the World as GOOD SUCCESS. So sad!

But, let me shock you with this that not all SUCCESS are GOOD SUCCESSES, some are BAD SUCCESSES. True! Take note, take heed!

Therefore, many of the SUCCESSES we see in the World today are BAD SUCCESSES in the sight and side of God. True!

Then what qualify a SUCCESS in this World to be GOOD in the sight and side of God?

A SUCCESS is GOOD in the sight and side of God:

1. If the SUCCESS is a product of His WORD in Christ for you. True!

God timely instructing Joshua told him thus:

This book of the law shall not depart out of your mouth; but you shall meditate therein day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall have GOOD SUCCESS. (Joshua 1:8; Psalm 1:1-3).

2. If the SUCCESS is a product of His WILL in Christ for you. True!

Jesus Christ teaching His disciples how to pray instructed them to pray thus:

After this manner therefore pray you: Our Father which art in heaven, hallowed be your name.  Your Kingdom come. Your WILL be done in Earth, as it is in Heaven. (Matthew 6: 9,10; Romans 8:26-28; 1 John 5:14,15; Romans 12:1,2).

3. If the SUCCESS is a product of His WORK in Christ for you. True!

Apostle Paul counseling the Saints revealed to them thus:

I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. So then neither is he that plants any thing, neither he that waters; but God that gives the increase. Now he that plants and he that waters are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour. FOR WE ARE LABOURERS TOGETHER WITH GOD: you are God's husbandry, you are God's building. According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another builds thereon. But let every man take heed how he builds thereupon. For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ. Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble; Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is. If any man's work abide which he had built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire. (1 Corinthians 3:6-15; Ephesians 2:8-10; Matthew 5:13-16; John 9:4,5; John 17:15; 2 Timothy 4:5-8).

Any SUCCESS short of the above three (3) qualifications is a BAD SUCCESS in the sight and side of God. True! Take note Take heed!

Today, the people of the World and unfortunately the Body of Christ are celebrating SUCCESSES God regards as BAD SUCCESSES:

1. Because they are not successes from His Word, Will and Work in Christ on the Earth. True!

2. Because they are not what He is doing in Christ on the Earth by His Spirit. True!

Take note, take heed!

Do have a RETHINKING DAY on achieving SUCCESS in this World that pleases God and attracts His reward on Earth now and in Heaven someday.

God bless you.
