Success Oriented Society
“Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will” (Romans 12:2).
We are a success oriented society!
What is that success?
Having your dreams come true?
Getting all you want?
Earning enough money so that you never have to work again?
May I tell you what success is?
And I say this without equivocation.
Success is the progressive realization of the will of God for your life!
That’s what it is.
It’s not how much money you have.
It’s not how famous you are.
It’s not how healthy you are.
It’s not how many friends you have or how many toys you have acquired.
Success is-
– nothing more, nothing less, than-
– the progressive realization of the will of God for your life.
Do you want to know God’s will?
Do you want your heart’s desire to come true?
Read Micah 6:8.
What does God require of you?
Read Psalm 37:4.
One important thing you must remember!
God has not called us-
– to be successful;
– but to be faithful!
