THE KEY TO SUCCESS Joshua 1:8, “This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.” In this era of increasing knowledge, there are several types of rules and keys for success, both biblical and non-biblical. And because we all desire success, we do not relent to seek for means to succeed. As anyone would seriously desire formula for success, Joshua was; he just succeeded Moses in the leadership of the nation Israel. He was assuming an awesome responsibility in taking command of two-and-half million people. If anyone needed a formula for success, Joshua did. What comfort and assurance it must have been as the Lord Himself spoke to Joshua and gave him the master key to success – meditating upon God’s Word. Joshua was to meditate upon the Word of God day and night, meaning at all the time, and he was promised good success by so doing. The same formula is applicable and available for us today as we desire success spiritually, physically, financially, martially, etc. Our success in life is underneath the Word of God, and by searching deep into the Word of God, we discover our desired success. We are to read it, but not just reading; we are to meditate upon reading it by repeatedly and prayerfully thinking about it in order to gain a better understanding and apply it into our daily living. This is the key to success in Christ Jesus. Any success outside the Word of God only leads to sorrow. Read your Bible every day, reason with it every time and reason through it in every situation. Psalm 119:9, “How can a young man cleanse his way? By taking heed according to Your word.”
