Failure is not my portion. I have reprogrammed myself for success, abundance, breakthrough and forward movement. That should be the mentality that every child of God should have. It saddens me when I see a born-again believer carelessly personalized negative words. What you think and what you say is who you become. The bible says in Proverbs 23:7, For as he thinketh in his heart so is he…
The bible also says, out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. Your mouth is your destiny molder. Use it wisely. Arch Bishop Benson Idahosa once said: “you can use your tongue to correct what is wrong.” Don’t say before angels that the bad things you say about you are errors. Angels only understands go. They are meant to serve you. Waiting for your instruction by what you say. Whether positive or negative, angels will carry out the assignments.
You may have bad impression about yourself and destiny probably because of what others said. I know people whose destinies have been limited because their teachers, parents or guardians said something negative about them. Understand that God has the final say. God says all His creations are good – including you – which means you aren’t a failure as they’ve said. Failure is not your portion in Christ. Don’t mistake your condition for your portion.
Why Is Failure Not My Portion When I Don’t Know Anybody?
In our culture, It’s not uncommon to hear people say they know somebody to achieve a feat in life. You don’t need to know any mortal man to make things happen. You only need to know God to make things come to be.
“Those who do know their God shall be strong and do exploits.” Daniel.11:32.
Exploits is your birthright. Exploits implies what eyes has neither seen nor heard before.
“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.” 1.Cor.2:9
Anything that anyone thinks or says about you and your destiny is a lie. Their views are their views.
It’s natural for men to think negatively but it’s supernatural for them to reprogram there thinking for positivity. Since the devil fell, the thoughts of man has geared towards the negative trend.
“And God saw the wickedness of men was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.” Genesis 6:5
You’ve to reprogram mind from this pattern by feeding on the word of God which contain the truth about you and your identity.
“When men are cast down, then thou shall say, There is lifting up; and he shall save the humble person.” Job.22:29
You belong to the top and not the bottom irrespective of a natural man sentiment.
If you say that I’m brainwashing you, yes! You are absolutely correct. When you come to Christ, old things are passed away, all things have become new. So, you must be brain washed from all negative orientations, traditions and idiosyncrasies. All negative chaffs and mind debris of the past must be flushed out by Jesus.
“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” 2.Corinthians.5:17.
Because somebody started a business today and failed doesn’t means you’ll start the same business and failed. Go and take that same business, you’ll succeed in it because your case is different.
“The righteous shall flourish like a palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.” Psalm.92:12
Overcoming Failure And Life Challenges
The devil and human extensions with their remote controls are still at the business of controlling people’s destinies. This explain why a fully grown adult that is still given to the dictates of his folks, he can’t make any decision of his own.
A believer who isn’t sure of the foundation of his faith will soon collapse before he started the journey of his faith. My faith is built on a solid rock, there’s no amount of storm of life that can pull me down. I remain ever confident in His ability to save and delivers.
To all this who have been discouraged, I’ve a little message for you, you’ve given up before the arrival of your blessings. Rededicate your lives to Jesus and you won’t regret you do so.
Situations and circumstances are lies. It scriptural to be challenged, it’s unscriptural to be defeated. “When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the spirit of the lord shall lift up a standard against them.” Isaiah.59:19
There is no challenged free life. Genuine Wisdom is tested when it’s applied to overcome challenges.
If God could told light to appears and darkness disappears, you can do more than that because Jesus said greater than the works he did, you’ll do.
“Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that believeth on him, the works that I do shall he also do; greater works than these shall he do; before I go unto my father.” John.14:12
Hence, darkness can’t dog your path, poverty can’t be your neighbour. Failure is not your portion. Nothing is permitted to die in your hand. Others can be molested, but you’re walking out of my dark areas and negative circumstances.
“This is the message which we have heard of him, and declared unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.” 1.Johnn.1:5
The moment light comes in, darkness goes out. Darkness has no choice but to go on a compulsory leave.
