Formula for successful living
On Sunday morning and evening, based on the promise verse of Proverbs 3:6, I shared on the formula for successful living:
1. Know your priorities - In all your ways
2. What are your values - submit to God (Kingdom principles)
3. Results are guaranteed - He will make your path straight.
The same formula is repeated in Mathew 6:33 and Col 3:1-3.
Our priorities stem from our values and its so important that our values are based on the Kingdom of God and not on the Kingdom of they world.
Values of the World's kingdom
- Pleasure
- Possessions
- Position
Its based on SELF
Values of God's Kingdom
- Love God
- Love your neighbour
Its based on GOD. SELF does not exist.
Quote of the day: Pleasure
in itself is not wrong. But when pleasure
transcends the boundaries of need and courts the realms of want and greed, to
the degree where the line between pleasing God and appeasing self disappears, I think we may be threading in dangerous waters.
