In the first series of the Success Strategies you were thought that success is your birthright in Christ Jesus, according to the book of Genesis 1:22, God created man as blessings (success), and to be blessed means to be successful. Also when God was establishing the covenant of success with Abraham you were in the picture, Abraham received the blessings for you, the same way Adam received the punishment of disobedience for humanity. Again, the Bible’s success is mind-based (you can’t think of failure and wake up with success). Proverbs 22:7 says as a man thinks in his heart so he is (paraphrase). In this second series, you’ll learn more about success strategies.
(1). Feed And Renew Your Mind With Success Orientation
(2). Make Positive Sounds And Declare Success Words Boldly
Your mouth is a gift from the Lord, it’s a weapon of warfare in a spiritual battle that you could use to defeat failure or any unwanted situations. “For I will give you a mouth and such utterance and wisdom that all of your foes combined will be unable to stand against or refute.” (Luke 21:15) Use your mouth gift to turn the shape of things around, you can use it to give your business a new shape, from failure to success.
A spoken word is a seed that can become a forest in the future, therefore, sow a success word by speaking the right words. How forcible are right words…(Job 6:25)
David chopped off Goliath’s head with his mouth before the actual killing took place but take note of the mouth-based success arsenals that David deploy to defeat Goliath, they are:
- The word of God
- Testimonies
The word of God is a powerful weapon in the hands of believers in the days of battle. It’s your launching pad to success. The five stones represent the word of God. Also, Jesus demonstrated how to use the word of God to command success over any enemy of it, in Luke chapter 4, the devil (the enemy, the wicked one) tempted Jesus, but Jesus succeed over the enemy through a thorough application of the scripture. Don’t forget the devil knows the Bible, but you can outsmart him with adequate scriptural knowledge.
One further reason why understanding the bible is very crucial to your success in any field is that anytime the wicked strikes it’s the word of God in your heart (not the one in your head or under your pillow), that you’ll go for, in days of battle, the words in your head will fly away but the word of God In your heart will speak out (your heart is the fertile land for the fruitful word). The Bible is the success blueprint, it’s the solution book that offers multipurpose solutions to all problems of life. Become a certified Bible student and see how cheap it’s to command success.
God was the first person to use this strategy at creation, then the earth was dark and empty, and the situation was a terrible one, but God did not complain nor cry, He spoke the word, and everything God said, God saw. If God had to use this method to turn situations around, then you and I have no choice but to implement the same strategy. The mountains (problems like a failure) that you are still seeing are the ones you have not spoken to.
Truly, I tell you, whoever says to this mountain, Be lifted and thrown into the sea! and does not doubt at all in his heart but believes that what he says will take place, it will be done for him
Mark 11:23
Hear and share testimonies. Hearing the testimony of others can bring you to success on anything and sharing your success story with others can help them become successful.
Many of us are where we are by reading the biographies of successful people. Learning from the failure of the success and how they overcome help us to replicate further success in our lives.
If you want to venture into something (say business or career), you’ll have to first identify the best consultants or specialists – with proven results – in that field, get their materials, learn from them; and follow their steps. The source usually determines the size. That means the source of your light (knowledge or insights) determines the magnitude of the size of your results. The elephant calf is not of the same size as a dog puppy, both are young ones but they are bigger than each based on the size of their source.
Testimonies are ‘faith-boosters‘ a weapon of war against failure, David demonstrated how to use the testimony weapon to conquer Goliath, “they servant slew both the lion and the bear: and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, seeing he that defiled the armies of the living God.” (1 Samuel 17:36)
Some guys heard about the testimony of the woman with the issue of blood, they went ahead to touch the garment of Jesus too and they were all healed.
