"Know that in the final period of history, times will be difficult, men will be selfish, avaricious, boastful and pretentious, they will speak of God in an insulting manner and will not They will be ungrateful, devoid of respect for what is sacred, heartless, pitiless, calumniators, incapable of self-control, cruel, enemies of good, swept away by their passions and swollen with pride, they will be ready for all They will love pleasure rather than God, but they will remain attached to the external practices of religion, but in reality they will not want to know anything about what makes them strong !" 2 Timothy 3: 1-5
To deny what is the strength of faith is to rely more on his own abilities than on the Spirit of God. It is to seek success according to the criteria of this world rather than those of God.
Your life with God is successful when the power in you is in your life and the lives of others.
Success with God is not measured in terms of honorific title, position or net worth. Your life with God is successful when the power that is in you is in your life and the lives of others.
To succeed with God is to see beings saved, healed, delivered and freed by the miraculous power that dwells in you. You must be aware of this power in you and know what it is capable of accomplishing.
Action for Today
What is your definition of success ? If it does not agree with God's, it's time to re-evaluate your priorities !
