Success or Failure? Answer = F.R.O.G. 1st

What is your success factor or failure rate.  Don't worry.  I believe this is a better understanding.  F.R.O.G. 1st.  Fully Rely on God.  Trust God more than you Trust yourself.

"If you fully obey the LORD your God and carefully follow all his commands I give you today, the LORD your God will set you high above all the nations on earth" (Deut 28:1-2).

Our God is a God of success. You are created to be a success. Success is rooted in our relationship with God, not in our abilities. When our abilities are separated from our relationship with God, success is short-lived.

2 Obey the Lord your God so that all these blessings will come and stay with you: 3 You will be blessed in the city and blessed in the country. 4 Your children will be blessed, as well as your crops; your herds will be blessed with calves and your flocks with lambs. 5 Your basket and your kitchen will be blessed. 6 You will be blessed when you come in and when you go out. 7 The Lord will help you defeat the enemies that come to fight you. They will attack you from one direction, but they will run from you in seven directions. 8 The Lord your God will bless you with full barns, and he will bless everything you do. He will bless the land he is giving you. 9 The Lord will make you his holy people, as he promised. But you must obey his commands and do what he wants you to do. 10 Then everyone on earth will see that you are the Lord's people, and they will be afraid of you. 11 The Lord will make you rich: You will have many children, your animals will have many young, and your land will give good crops. It is the land that the Lord promised your ancestors he would give to you. 12 The Lord will open up his heavenly storehouse so that the skies send rain on your land at the right time, and he will bless everything you do. You will lend to other nations, but you will not need to borrow from them. 13 The Lord will make you like the head and not like the tail; you will be on top and not on bottom. But you must obey the commands of the Lord your God that I am giving you today, being careful to keep them. 14 Do not disobey anything I command you today. Do exactly as I command, and do not follow other gods or serve them. (Deut 28:2-8).

Sometimes God allows you to fail in order for you to succeed. Each of us must first experience our own death and resurrection from our old nature. This is for you to learn Who the source of true success is. You will be amazed how easy success will come when your life is in proper alignment with the purposes of God.

Today, reaffirm your commitment to follow His ways in all that you do. This will ensure God's purposes will be fulfilled in you.
