Secrets of Success Secrets of Success

God's Way vs Our Way ● We live in a universe that is run by a sovereign and moral God ● Wisdom is the ability to achieve goals in a manner that brings lasting success ● Folly then, is attempting to achieve lasting success without concern for God. This is the essence of poor judgment

Our Way ● Ease ● Control ● Fun ● To be important....NOW! ● To cause pain

Basically ● I want what I want ● when I want it ● I deserve it ● and I don't want to hurt you ● but stay out of my way!

How to waste your life from one situation to the next ● Be vague about the will of God ● Be thoughtless about how you're living ● Be foolish and respond to life as you see fit ● “You will never waste your life decades at a time, you waste it one situation at a time.”

Engage Your Brain ● Know God's boundaries and perspective on life ● Gain understanding so I can analyze situations and people accurately ● Gain discernment so I can pick proper timing and methods

Proverbs 3:5-7 Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil.

Proverbs 14:12 There is a way that appears to be right, but in the end it leads to death.

Attitudes of Success ● Fear and Trust in God a must. HTP Lord develop in me ● Main focus today Teachability and Humility

Humility ● Humility is the precursor to Teachability ● Makes us ready to be taught ● Pride blocks wisdom ● Healthy progress toward goals ● Others will cheer you on

Psalm 25:9 He guides the humble in what is right and teaches them his way.

Teachability ●A●Are you willing to accept coaching and correction? ●A●A learner's heart ●A●Admit I have a lot to learn ●O●Only legitimate shortcut in life ●H●How much do you like pain?

Proverbs 2:1-5 My son, if you accept my words and store up my commands within you, turning your ear to wisdom and applying your heart to understanding—indeed, if you call out for insight and cry aloud for understanding, and if you look for it as for silver and search for it as for hidden treasure, then you will understand the fear of the Lord and find the knowledge of God.

God loves those who don't love Him. Wisdom only loves those who love her.

Proverbs 15:32. He who ignores discipline despises himself, but whoever heeds correction gains understanding.
