THREE SPIRITUAL KEYS TO SUCCESS

Trying so hard to achieve something and not seeing the desired results is quite disheartening to us. We need to know that God is backing us in our endeavors but He expects us to do the following:

1. Trust in God with all your heart: Faith is the key to seeing God work on our behalf. Jesus constantly encouraged His disciples to trust in Him. Faith moves mountains or it gives us strength to walk over them. Either way, you've got it under control. The biggest idea for success is placing our faith in God and trusting Him whole-heartedly.

2. Lean not on your own understanding: It is good to know things. Education and thorough knowledge of your assignment are certainly essential. But, there are quite many things that are beyond our knowledge. They have to do with more than what we know. Trusting in your own instinct, knowledge and ideas is not sufficient at times. This calls us to a life that continually relies on God’s wisdom. Lean not on your own understanding.

3. Acknowledge Him in all your ways: Do you realize that your Heavenly Father is right there with you? Do you ask Him, “Lord, what must I do now?” Acknowledge His Presence as you go by your path. Acknowledge Him when you reach your goal. After all, if it were not for Him, we would not be where we are. All the credit goes to Him alone.

And guess what? He will make your paths straight!

Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6.
