Winning with Him


Prosperity and success are within your reach if you commit your heart and ways to the Lord. He's just waiting to bless you. Are you playing life's game as a lottery or are you banking on His odds and winning with Him?



May's Message, Day 23:

Then the Lord your God will make you most prosperous in all the work of your hands and in the fruit of your womb, the young of your livestock and the crops of your land. The Lord will again delight in you and make you prosperous, just as he delighted in your ancestors, if you obey the Lord your God and keep his commands and decrees that are written in this Book of the Law and turn to the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul. Deuteronomy 30:9-10 NIV



Are you seeking prosperity and the good life? Do you want abundance and blessings to come unexpectedly? Are you hoping for success in your career and all your endeavors? Do you want your children to be overflowing with joy and have success surpassing your own? Life is sure much more enjoyable and easier if the work of your hands is prosperous and rewarding. The first step toward prosperity and success is to have a heart after God, and to walk in His ways. The floodgates of heaven are just waiting to be opened and poured out on you and yours. But what about all those immensely successful non-believers out there? Why are they apparently so blessed? Jesus made it plain to us in Matthew 5:45b (NIV), "He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous." The unjust too, for a time and a season, may experience an abundance. But remember, this life on earth is a blink of an eye, and eternity hangs in the balance. Don't forget that God's ways and thoughts are much higher than ours and we must trust He knows what's best. To hope for the best apart from Him is like playing the lottery. As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. His odds are most assuredly with you.
