Re: 2 Greatest enemies of success!

Each one of us wants to succeed, and succeed big in all that we do.But there is this trend that I have noted over the years.

1.An individual with great talent in certain area/s becomes so successful to the surprise of many. He or she becomes the talk of town. At the time when the sky seems to be the limit something happens and all the success comes trembling down.

2.An individual who was at one time despised,rated so low,and regarded as a no body comes from no where and becomes very successful.

Ever noted that? What do you suppose is the problem? There would be many reasons but my take is that the problem lies on 2 greatest enemies of success:

1.Pride/arrogance!
2.Not according to the will of God.

Any success that is attributed to a human being without God will most definitely fail. The Bible tells us that that was what affected Lucifer, The Pharaoh of Egypt,Nebuchadnezzar,and the Herode that killed James,the brother of John.

Acts chapter 5 tells us that anything that is not done according to the will of God will most definitely fail.

So if you and I want to succeed in all that we do,then we must set pride a side and do everything in fear of God.Shall we?

Just a thought.
