​The Grace to Succeed

Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! What an awesome time to be saved and living the Zoe (God kind of) life! Please allow me this opportunity to share a word of encouragement with you during this time of uncertainty, unrest, and unruliness. It’s the enemy’s desire to see you fall into the common fray of everyday negativity, that’s designed to pull you down and cause you to not experience all that the Lord desires for you; but isn’t it comforting to know that God has already patterned us for success? Jeremiah 29:11 tells us that He know the thoughts that He thinks towards us, they are thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give us hope and a future.

In this uncertain world in which we live, God has already given us a hope and a future. Your future is extremely bright in the Father! You are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people; that you should show forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light (1 Peter 2:9).

God has graced us to succeed, and our success is not contingent upon this world’s systems, schemes, scams, and shenanigans. The promise that God gave to Joshua is available and applicable to us today; keep this book of the law (God’s Word) 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 (Joshua 1:8).
Why do I say that we have the grace to succeed? I say that because we don’t deserve success, but God made it possible for us to succeed because of His love for us! That’s wonderful news! It prompts us know that there is nothing that we can do in and of ourselves to deserve it, so it takes the pressure off of us to “Perform”, we can simply be who He created us to be and in enjoy our bright future. Go out today, and be the success that He has created you to be!
