The Road to Godly Success

Proverbs 25:28
28 A man without self-control is like a city broken into and left without walls

- Spiritual warfare is real, enemies are attacking you, but as long as God is our wall, we are protected

#1 Put God first, the money will come
- Money is used to do everything in our lives

Matthew 6:33
33 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

- Manage money well (earning, spending, saving, investing, giving)
- If we have right perspective to manage money, God will bless us
- Don't chase after provision, put our Provider first

#2 Word hard on not messing up key relationships
- Spouses, kids, parents, siblings, bosses, colleagues.
- It's God's divine connection for our lives
- Key relationships will bring us greatest joy but also greatest pain in our lives
- Wake up, you could be causing pain to those who are closest to you
- Be humble, patient, forgiving
- Husband-wife relationship is the most important relationship

Genesis 2:24
24 Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.

- Cannot rip our flesh because it will cause pain
- Make decisions in the early stage, and manage it daily

#3 Walking in faith involves risk and pain
- Never view disappointment as setbacks. Don't ask why, ask what
- God doesn't work in sequential ways
- Planning is important but:
  > It pushes away the voice of Spirit
  > It causes us to miss divine opportunities
  > There will be no element of faith
