The Way to Good Success

“This book of the law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it; for then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall have good success.” (Joshua‬ ‭1:8‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

Early on in my journey as a believer, the Holy Spirit gave me a revelation from the verse above.

As I was reading it, He showed me that good success is a type of success that bring good to all areas of your life without any negative side effects.

For example, if you are single-minded in pursuing wealth, you will end up fatigued, unhealthy, age quickly, and miss out on important moments with family. This type of financial success is not considered “good success” because you gain in one area but lose greatly in other areas.

“For bodily exercise has some value, but godliness has value in all things, having the promise of the life which is now, and of that which is to come. This saying is faithful and worthy of all acceptance.” (1 Timothy‬ ‭4:8-9‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

Receiving God’s word (specifically what is applicable for us under the New Covenant of Grace”) everyday has value in all things. It benefits you in the life now, and in the eternal age that is to come.

If you want good success, then you must meditate on God’s word and apply it in your life. This is the best use of your time because with one action, you cause all areas of your life to prosper and become fruitful.

The process is not complete without speaking forth the Word. The best would be if you can pray in tongues. Faith is believing and speaking so meditate and pray.

Instead of using a watering can to water one plant at a time, it is like you are pouring into an irrigation system that diverts the water to reach the whole garden!

“There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is heavy on men: a man to whom God gives riches, wealth, and honor, so that he lacks nothing for his soul of all that he desires, yet God gives him no power to eat of it, but an alien eats it. This is vanity, and it is an evil disease.” (Ecclesiastes‬ ‭6:1-2‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

I pray that you be wise so that you have the power to enjoy every good thing in your life. By ensuring that the garden of your life is well-watered with God’s word, you will possess the grace to eat the fruits from the harvest!

How do you read the four gospels in the light of the New Covenant of Grace? Which parts apply to you directly now, and which are just for your learning? In “Understand the Four Gospels Through the Lens of Grace”, I explain every parable, miracle, speech, and action of Jesus Christ based on the revelations received over the years. It will be an insightful read and I hope you glean many gems from it:

Shining Bright in These Last Days

“But know this, that in the last days, grievous times will come. For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, not lovers of good, traitors, headstrong, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God; holding a form of godliness, but having denied its power. Turn away from these, also…

But you did follow my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, patience, love, steadfastness, persecutions, and sufferings: those things that happened to me at Antioch, Iconium, and Lystra. I endured those persecutions. The Lord delivered me out of them all. Yes, and all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will suffer persecution. But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived. But you remain in the things which you have learned and have been assured of, knowing from whom you have learned them.” (2 Timothy‬ ‭3:1-5, 10-14‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

It seems that even though the world is more technologically advanced, connected, and knowledgeable than before, it has experienced a steep moral degradation in contrast to past generations. The world will only get worse.

However, we are not here to reform the world, but to cause as many who will listen to believe that Jesus is Lord and be saved. In this way, we are snatching souls out of the fire, as we await the glorious appearing of the Lord Jesus Christ.

The more boldly you stand up for Jesus, the more persecution you will face. The world hates Jesus, and it will hate the disciples who love and follow Him.

Don’t let fear and intimidation dull your shine. There is not much time left until the church’s departure from this world. Soon, the trumpet will sound and with a shout, the Lord will cause our bodies to be transformed into glorified bodies that will never die, age, or weaken.

We should not leave this world without at least sharing the precious Gospel with the people around us. You don’t necessarily have to do it directly, but invite them to hear someone who preaches the Gospel, or give them an encouraging Christian book. Utilize the unique gifts that God has deposited in you, towards the goal of winning souls. Pray as you do these, requesting open doors for the Holy Spirit to work on their hearts.

In God’s kingdom, it seems that the martyrs and heavily persecuted ones are greatly honored and receive great rewards. “There is no love greater than this: that a man would lay down his life for his friends.” Jesus did that for us, and we can choose to do that for others, as worship unto God. Your faith, hope, and love shown for Jesus’ sake will not go unrewarded!

今天金句分享:
「有了信心，又要加上德行；有了德行，又要加上知識； 有了知識，又要加上節制；有了節制，又要加上忍耐；有了忍耐，又要加上虔敬； 有了虔敬，又要加上愛弟兄的心；有了愛弟兄的心，又要加上愛眾人的心 。 你們若充充足足地有這幾樣，就必使你們在認識我們的主耶穌基督上不至於閒懶不結果子了。」
‭‭（彼得後書‬ ‭1:5-8‬ ‭）
“Make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love. For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
‭‭（2 Peter‬ ‭1:5-8‬ ‭）
親愛的天父，感謝祢教導我們屬神的兒女不是離群獨居、與世隔絕，而是要進入人群，把基督信仰藉着我們的好品德和好行為，成為活生生的見證人，與人分享主耶穌的愛和福音，榮神益人，領人歸主！如果單靠自己的力量，父啊，我們一定做得不夠好，求聖靈引導我們聽道行道，坐言起行，靠主得勝！
奉主耶穌基督聖名祈禱，阿們！🌹🙏🏻
