Succeed in Life by Understanding Its Principles

Do you want to succeed in life—I mean, really succeed in life? If so, always keep in your mind that you will have a long journey to the city of Success. You will travel across thousands of miles before you can get there. As it is located so far away from your abode, you will spend the rest of your life journeying, always keeping up with the many routines. Only a very few people would give their all on this journey. Once their comfort zones are drawn, some joiners of this life challenge won’t go on any further. Columbus didn’t just sail; rather, he sailed west. To succeed in life is to stick to the goal at all costs; the very key to an achievement that the quitters and failures in our midst don’t possess.

Powerful Faith in God

February 10, 2020December 9, 2012 by Jun P. Espina

How powerful is your faith in God? For the Bible says that your faith, if it is scriptural, is confident that God knows and hears you. Observe 1 John 5:13-15 NASB:These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life. This is the confidence which we have before Him, that, if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests which we have asked from Him.” Your faith therefore is more precious than anything else here on earth, for by it you will “know that you have eternal life” and that God “hears us in whatever we ask,” according to His will. From these great truths, you can have only one conclusion: your faith in God is replete with power! You are therefore nothing more than a bundle of divine power.

Jesus Christ said that He is the Giver of life, for He is the Life. That is the meaning of Christian life. Jesus our Lord is the Life, He is our Life. Observe John 10:27-28: “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow Me; and I give eternal life to them, and they shall never perish; and no one shall snatch them out of My hand.” We are complete in Christ in this life and beyond. (cf. John 15:5) A Christian life is a life of hope and victory; a life of divine peace and joy. The Bible contains true life stories of a prostitute who got changed or of a resurrected dead man.

One strange thing about man’s life is its nature of complete dependence upon another. Self-sufficiency is never life’s architecture. From his mother’s womb down to his lonely grave, something buoyed up man somehow outside of himself. His Maker breathed life upon him.
