SUCCESS AND ACCEPTABILITY

Editorial Comment

If you’re a dreamer, you also need to be a doer to achieve God’s best in your life. You need to dream big dreams, but have to also put your faith into action. The Bible tells us “faith without works is dead.” Whatever part of life needs an extra input of God’s blessings, continue to sow seeds of encouragement, hope, faithfulness and live a disciplined life. When you are faithful in doing that, God will reward your diligence and you will reap your harvest of Success.

Scripture Reference

To do righteousness and justice is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice. Proverbs 21:3
He who loves money will not be satisfied with money; nor he who loves wealth, with gain: this also is vanity. When goods increase, they increase who eat them; and what gain has their owner but to see them with his eyes? Sweet is the sleep of a labourer, whether he eats little or much; but the surfeit of the rich will not let him sleep. Ecclesiastes 5:10-12
It is good to give thanks to the Lord, and sing praises to Your name, O Most High. It is good to tell of Your loving-kindness in the morning, and of how faithful. You are at night, with harps, and with music of praise. Psalm 91:1-3
The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles. Psalm 34:17
The way of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn, which shines ever brighter until the full light of day. Proverbs 4:18, NLT

Business & Sales Tips

Ability to analyse is important – especially to a salesperson. Yet very few analyse the value of each call, then worked out how much each call has cost. This is one of the things the high achiever always seems to be aware of, the above average achiever works on less frequently, but the average achiever never attempts.

No matter what has been taken away from you, no matter what losses you’ve experienced, if you give it over to God, He will return to you more than you could ask or imagine. He’ll make things right and give you more than what was lost or stolen. When you put your hope in God, He blesses you and God wants to multiply your joy, peace, wisdom, health and finances with a double portion in every area of your life! The first step in moving forward into this fresh future is forgetting the disappointments of yesterday. It’s time to forget about those disappointments and reach out in faith to God’s abundant future.
