The Word Guarantees Your Success


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 (Joshua 1:8 AMP).

True success is more than having a lot of money and a vast estate. Jesus said a man’s life doesn’t consist in the abundance of his possession (Luke 12:15). True success is the consistent and ever-increasing manifestation of the glory of God in your life. That’s why a Christian can be so successful, even though he’s in prison. Paul and Silas were in prison; they weren’t failures. Though they were in prison, they were successful. They manifested the glory of God, and lived triumphantly.

It makes no difference what your present situation is; you carry success in your spirit. The Word of God in you will take you from glory to glory! Absolute success is living in, and by, the Word; giving the Word first place in your life. If someone had a health challenge for example, and the first thing he thought of was “What drug can I take?” the Word isn’t first place in his life. If there’s a problem at work, and the first thing you think about is someone in a powerful position that can help you, that’s not giving the Word of God first place.


When you face challenges, go to the Word for guidance, counsel, and answers. First, be moved to pray. When you pray, even if you don’t know what the Scripture says about the situation you’re dealing with, the Word of God that’s stored up inside you will be stirred within you. The Spirit of God will bring to your remembrance His Word that’s in your spirit. He’ll stir it up within you. So, the Word is what you need; it guarantees your all-time success.
