Last week, we talked summarily on the ways to live a successful life in Christ. In the weeks ahead, I will break those points down and I am sure that if you follow these teachings step by step, The Lord Jesus will help you through His Word and open your eyes to see all that you can be.

Jeremiah 30:19.KJV. 19 “And out of them shall proceed thanksgiving and the voice of them that make merry: and I will multiply them, and they shall not be few; I will also glorify them, and they shall not be small.”

Proverbs 4:18.KJV. 18 “But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.”

Ps.35:27.KJV. 27 “Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favour my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, Let the Lord be magnified, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant.”

INTRODUCTION:

Man was programmed by God for territorial dominion. Genesis 1:26-29.KJV. 26 “And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.”

God wants us to succeed here in this world; refuse stress, struggle, and stagnation in life. Outstanding success and tangible progress are of God. Mediocrity is not righteousness.  Success is your heritage in Christ; it is your covenant birthright. You can produce desired results in whatever you do. There is an ability introduced in your life to be productive and successful; it is your nature in Christ.

It is the life God has given to us; a life of purpose, power, and productivity.

God has designed for His children all around the world to succeed if only they would open their eyes to all that is freely available to them in Christ.

HOW DO WE ENJOY SUCCESS IN LIFE?

1. PARTNERSHIP WITH GOD.

LUKE 5:1-7.KJV.

1 ”And it came to pass, that, as the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret,

2 And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them and were washing their nets.

3 And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon’s, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down and taught the people out of the ship.

4 Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.

5 And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless, at thy word I will let down the net.

6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake.

7 And they beckoned unto their partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink.

Partnership with God is one of the criteria for success in life.The dictionary definition of a partner is somebody who is involved in an activity with somebody else. To partner with God is to be involved with Him in His activities here on earth. It is to be involved with Him in activities that effect or perfect His will on earth as it is in heaven. On different occasions in the church where I Pastor, the Lord has asked me to tell specific brethren that the reason He has continued to preserve their lives is because of their service in the house of God.

Brothers and sisters, God loves all of us, but not every one of God’s children have been able to determine their value to Him.

Partnership with God is the answer to the hardship on earth and it ushers you into the realm of unusual success. Partnership with God means that you are doing business with Him; no one does business with God and loses. Make God the principal partner of your life, family, and business.

When you become a partner with God, He will exchange His prosperity for your poverty, His strength for your weakness and His wisdom for your ignorance.

You can’t partner with the big God and lose; No one in the Bible ever failed that partnered with God.

You can’t partner with God and go bankrupt. Stop struggling, start doing business with God.

Make sure you are involved in God’s business.

WHAT ARE YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS IN THE HOUSE OF GOD?

LUKE 22:27.KJV. 27 For who is the greater, the one who reclines at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one who reclines at the table? But I am among you as the one who serves.

Life is about the enhancement of value.

Your destiny anchors on service- your availability to minister to God and to the needs of the people you are sent to. Life is not about status nor about possessions; Life is about service and contribution.

Multitudes are living for what to consume, but it is time to start living for what you can give back. How are you affecting God’s people with the investment of your personality?  A lot of people complain about the government, churches, organisations without taking into consideration what God wants them to do.

You are not to be bothered about what to eat, you should rather be concerned about what to do for God.

Matthew 6:33.KJV. 33 “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” It is the discovery of what to do that will determine your success, progress, and advancement in life.You are a heritage of unusual prosperity as long as you agree to be in partnership with God.

Join us next week as I will be sharing on “How To Partner With God”.

Prayer of Salvation

If you have been blessed by this teaching and you are not yet born again, kindly say this prayer aloud;

“O Lord God, I come to You in the Name of Jesus Christ.

Your word says, “…whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Acts 2:21).
