Success ~ Part 1

Every person wants to be successful. We often measure our worth on how successful we are. How we measure that success is often based on a wordly standard rather than a GODLY standard. Success by the world's standard often means luxury, wealth and possessions, achievements, fame, beauty and brawn. If we measure our lives by the world's standards, we will have an inaccurate and incomplete view of whether or not we're successful. GOD'S standard of success is nothing like the world's standard. GOD'S formula for success works for every person in every situation, whether at school, at work, with our families, or in our churches. The pathway to success cannot be traveled by anyone who does not practice GOD'S formula for success. These principles are found in Joshua 1:6-9. 1.
