*THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WORLDLY SUCCESS & GODLY SUCCESS*
‼SUCCESS✡
The term “ *success* ” has been misrepresented by many people because they do not know the difference between
worldly success and Godly success
Understanding the
difference between worldly success & Godly success is
very important because it will determine if you will
become CONTENTED or if you will only be PLEASURED.
Your understanding of success will decide if you are chasing empty dreams or divine purpose. Unfortunately
the media has only advertised worldly success which is
why people are IGNORANT to Godly success.
That's true....
*There is always a fake of original 😂* 🤣
Let briefly see what worldly success will talk about here
*WORLDLY SUCCESS WILL GIVE YOU INTENSE PLEASURE BUT IT WILL PREVENT YOU FROM BEING CONTENTED IN YOUR LIFE.*
I have heard a lot of adage that says.. " *you can never be contented with what you have* "
I use to think that what if you have God🤔
🌝🌝🌝
Are those one Christan 😏⁉
Kindly follow me with this scriptures🙈🙊🙉
Matthew 4:9 And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. 4:10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.
1 Samuel 18:13 Therefore Saul removed him from him, and made him his captain over a thousand; and he went out and came in before the people. 18:14 And David behaved himself wisely in all his ways; and the LORD was with him.
‼The *world’s success* is predicated on *SURROUNDING* you
with things but leaving you *VOID* of power. The power that I’m referring to is NOT regarding the ability to change things *AROUND* you but it is regarding the ability to change things WITHIN YOU. When you become the recipient of the world’s success you will inherit their power
(influence). Their power is NOT the same as God’s power. The world’s influence can only change the things *AROUND* you but it *CANNOT* change anything *IN* you.
God’s power can change the things around you but most importantly it can also change the PERSON WITHIN YOU. Worldly success is built around the obtaining of tangible goods, assets, money, fame and popularity.
There is nothing wrong with obtaining these things BUT when you obtain these things VOID of God it will cause you tremendous harm.
‼This is how most people become CONFUSE about the term “success” because God said that He will give you these things but just because God said that He will give you these things it does not mean that this is the definition of success. The world has taken what God gives to His children and *CONTAMINATED* it with their level of understanding.
‼‼‼‼‼‼‼
This is why in *Proverbs 3:5* the Lord told us to trust in Him and NOT lean on our own understanding because when you rely on your own understanding you will take what God gives and use it for the wrong purpose. The world has taken what God gives WITHOUT including His purpose. Worldly success is a shallow version of what TRUE success really is. It is only an external reflection of what success PRODUCES but it is not the foundational purpose of what success is.
The devil attempted to entice Jesus with worldly success. In *verse 8-9* the devil showed Jesus all the Kingdoms of the world and their splendor. In these verses the devil said to Jesus, “if you bow down and worship me I will give you all these things”. The devil only offered Jesus the type of power that could change things AROUND Him which would have left Him VOID of true power. When you
inherit this type of success that can only change your surroundings God will see you as a failure even though people will view you as a success.
*What is Godly Success*⁉
‼When God sees you as a failure you have ABUSED the opportunities that He has given you to be productive. In the Kingdom of God success is defined as having
VICTORY. If you are not victorious in life you are a failure to God. Victory has NOTHING to do with possessions, money and tangibles. Victory has everything to do with
*OVERCOMING* !💪🏼
✡✡✡✡✡
When you study what the devil offered Jesus in Matthew chapter 4 you will notice that he offered Him everything
EXCEPT the ability to overcome and to be victorious *because the devil cannot offer what he does not have* . In 1sam.verses 13-14 the scripture says that “Saul sent David away and made him commander of a thousand soldiers. So David led them in battle. He had great SUCCESS in everything he did *because the Lord was with Him”.*
Most times we often focus on our ability 😒trying to bring something out with zealous act.. But God is not there
David was *VICTORIOUS* in every battle He fought. Godly success will empower you to change everything *WITHIN YOU.* David’s victories enabled him to become an honorable man of God. When God empowers a person to
partake in Godly success their attitude, mindset, behavior, perspective and perception WILL change. Godly success can only be obtained through the power of the *Holy Spirit* , NOT by the ability of the human spirit.
*Thanks for your time and support*
There is a question here👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼
*When a person has obtained VICTORY over an addiction doesn’t their behavior change*⁉
