Have
you been trying to achieve success in any area of your life? Have you thought about what you were able to
successfully accomplish in 2012? Have you even begun to think about your goals
and aspirations for 2013? Why are strategies for success important and how to
begin formulating them one by one? If you have been working hard at succeeding
in a particular area of your life and you find yourself failing miserably at
times; perhaps it is time to prayerfully consider formulating new strategies of
success.
Now
that we have celebrated the thanksgiving holiday and survived another Black Friday,
I wanted to take the time to encourage you to start thinking about your future.
A winning strategy for the follower of Christ begins with God’s Word. Listen to
the command given by God in Joshua 1:8, "This Book of the Law shall not
depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you
may observe and do according to all that is written in it. For then you shall
make your way prosperous, and then you shall deal wisely and have good success.”
Friends,
your future success depends on the level of commitment that you exert in
analyzing your current mode of operation. “9 Have not I commanded you? Be
strong, vigorous, and very courageous. Be not afraid, neither be dismayed, for
the Lord your God is with you wherever you go" (Joshua 1:9; The Amplified
Bible). So strengthen your spiritual muscles, roll up your sleeves, and have
the courage to move forward like a soldier on his/her way to a successful
conquest. If you are like me, perhaps you have come to realize that you have
the potential to do much more, the ability to be more effective or the prospect
of being more efficient in the things that God has planned for you to do for
Him here on earth!
Beloved,
as you think about where you are now, where you should be or could have been;
let us also begin to formulate new strategies of success, and rely on God's
Word and on the Holy Spirit to empower us to reach new heights in Christ! You
can and you will fulfill your purpose in God! Let us do it strategically, amen!
