Scripture:- Joshua 1:1-18
Topic:- The Secret Of A Successful Man
Text:- Numbers 23:10
In an interview, she was asked the secret of her success and the sudden sky rocketing profile. And in tears, she replied.
My Daddy paved these ways for me. It was after he died that I knew that he was financially poor but fabulously rich in integrity, discipline and honesty.
She was asked again, why she is weeping since she is no longer a kid as to miss her dad still after a long time. She replied:
“At the point of death, I insulted my dad for being an honest man of integrity. I hope he will forgive me in his grave now. I didn’t work for all these, he did it for me to just walk in.
So finally she was asked,” Will you follow your father’s foot steps as he requested: And her simple answer was, “l have already been doing that. I have met a number of people after his death and I haven’t seen or heard anyone say a word against my dad’s life in public service. I now adore the man, I have a big picture of him in my living room and my office. He deserves whatever I have after God.
Are you like Tom Smith? It pays to build a name, the reward doesn’t come quickly but it will come however long it may take and it lasts longer.
Integrity, discipline, self control and fear of God makes man wealthy, not the fat bank account, luxurious cars and mansions.
Leave a good heritage for your children and the next generation. Are you building a good name for your children and or a fat bank account? Money fades, fame goes, cars get out of system but a good name stays on forever.
Prayer Point:- Oh Lord God, give me power and grace to be successful in this world and at last make heaven with You, in the name of Jesus Christ.
Happy Lord’s Day!
