Are You a Real Success?

As long as he sought the LORD, God gave him success. (2 Chronicles 26:5b)

How much more simply can this be said?

How is success generally measured in our society today? Riches? Fame? Looks? How intensely do we pursue success? What methods do we use to pursue it?

Seeking the Lord brings success. The success that comes from knowing all of your needs, forever, will be supplied. The success that comes from knowing, no matter what ills or trials befall you, there is none that can destroy you; Jesus is with you through them. The success that comes from knowing, your most valuable possessions are kept safe from moths, rust, thieves – in the treasuries of heaven. The success that comes from knowing, whatever it is you are trying to overcome – addiction, heartbreak, joblessness, a life seeming to spiral wildly out of control – success is yours for the taking. There is power in Jesus’ name.
