Seek God's Approval


'And Saul said unto Samuel, I have sinned: for I have transgressed the commandment of the LORD, and thy words: because I feared the people, and obeyed their voice' 1Samuel 15:24.


Acceptance comes with great delight. Desiring acceptance has led many astray. That is why many folks today no longer live their lives they focus more on what people say and think of them. Today people post their nude pictures on their social media pages and profiles just to gain more followers and likes.


Seeking to always please men and women can be very costly. A lady after dressing and going out, and nobody tells her you are beautiful, comes back feeling depressed saying to herself 'maybe I am no longer beautiful, why do people hate me? She will forget that God has already approved of her in His Word when He said, 'You are fearfully and wonderfully made' (Psalm 134:14).

The knowledge of this truth, that God approves of you will give you much more confidence. He thinks more of you. He says, 'For I know the thoughts that I think towards you saith the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you an expected end (Jeremiah 29:11). Seeing that God approves of you, you should do what pleases Him.

PRAYER: Father, I thank you, for today is the day you have made I will rejoice and be glad in you. Take all the glory. In Jesus' Name. Amen.

To Overcome Defeat Is Possible

"I can do all things through Christ which strengthen me" (Philippians 4:13) This is a fact that you must never forget some people have overcome every conceivable difficult situation even the one in which you now find yourself and which to you seems utterly hopeless. So did it seem to some others, but they found an out, a way up, a path over, a pass through. I advise you not to take the attitude that you are in a situation in which nobody has ever been before. There is no such situation. Related Topic: Belief In Yourself   The first thing to do about an obstacle is simply to stand up to it and not complain about it. Don't go crawling through life on your hands and knees half-defeated. Stand up to your obstacle and do something about them. You will find that they haven't half the strength you think they have. You can do this when you have faith, faith in God, and faith in yourself. Faith supplies staying power. It contains dynamics to keep one going when the going is h...

Break Away From Consumer Mentality

"And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities." (Luke 19:17).  If you keep consuming everything without producing anything, you will have nothing to fall back on. Immediate gratification creates poverty or lack in the future. Short-term thinking and living for today is the bane of many individuals but long-term thinking will help you to imbibe a producer mentality. An investment mentality is a way of thinking that supports thoughts and behaviors directed at achieving wealth. It compels you to automatically think about, recognize and take advantage of wealth-building opportunities. It also drives you to structure your lifestyles to preserve and continue to grow the wealth you have created. Helpful Topics:  If your mind is concerned with the acquisition of liabilities, then you are missing out. You must let go of your consumer mentality through delayed gratification if you want to rise fina...
