THE SECRET OF SUCCESS
Wise people want to receive advice and teaching to be better people. The foolish already think they are great and pretend to be able to do things and therefore ignore others’ advice or direction.
Every one of us wants to be successful in our work. We also want to see the great prophecies that are spoken upon us happen. However, these things will not happen if we do not seek wisdom. One of the ways to seek wisdom is by having a heart that is willing to receive input or advice; a desire to study to have understanding.
The main success secret for believers is the willingness to study the Word of God: to dig the word of God, to study the stories found in the Bible, its advice and warnings, so that our lives are moved by the Word of God—His truth. The Lord promises that He is going to show a future filled with hope to us. However, there is a price that we need to pay to receive the best.
Therefore, we should never stop learning, even though we have achieved success. Why? Because God still needs to deal with us. He still wants to reveal new and greater things to us. It is easy for many people to be satisfied and to stop learning. Keep learning from God through His Holy Spirit. Learn from the heroes of faith, learn from our brothers and sisters in Christ. Accept instruction and advice from the Lord. Hold unto them wherever we are sent by God. Amen.
