PASTOR CHRIS AND PASTOR ANITA OYAKHILOME TUESDAY, JULY 8TH SUCCESS IS RELATIVE Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain. 1 Corinthians 9:24 To be successful means living the victorious life through Gods Word. It also means to achieve Gods desired goals for your life. You ought not to measure your success by comparing yourself with someone else, because you may not know Gods plan for that persons life. Dont think youre failing just because someone else is succeeding. God doesnt define success that way. Success is relative, and were all at different stages in life. Between you and God, you can know whether youre successful or not. God measures your success by how much youre able to accomplish of the things Hes planned for you to do, at different phases of your life. You can look at your life today, even now, and tell whether youre a success, at this phase of your life. Gods dream is for you to heap success upon success. If youre successful now, He can count on you for more, and entrust you with an even higher level of success tomorrow. Therefore, measure your success at each point in your life by comparing your performance or accomplishments with the goals you set to achieve at the beginning. You can be a success at a certain level and then the goal broadens, the challenges are increased, and the dyke is raised. When you overcome the challenges and attain those new goals, you become a success again at that new level. It goes on that way from one level of glory to another. PRAYER Dear Lord, thank you for showing me how to run with patience the race that youve set before me. My gaze is on you Lord Jesus, and my energies are focused on fulfilling your plans and purpose for my life. I refuse to compare myself with anyone else, but measure my success in life with your Word, in Jesus Name. Amen.
