“Only be thou strong and very courageous, that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper whithersoever thou goest.” Joshua 1:7(KJV)
I heard a story of a man named Steve Scott, he was always failing on his job until he met a dear man of God who counseled him saying that if he would read the book of Proverbs everyday, reading a chapter everyday for five years, he will be a millionaire. So he choose to begin reading the book of Proverbs. As he read it consistently everyday for two years, he was worth four million dollars.
Notice that the Man of God said five years, but as the young man began doing it and reading a chapter in the book of Proverbs everyday, he was worth four million dollars in two years because of consistency. Today Steve Scott is one of the wealthiest Christians in the world, and the company that he used to work for before he lost his job has become one of their major contractors.
Success and prosperity is the reward for habitual discipline. Joshua 1:8 says, “This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.” I encourage you to go and do likewise.
PRAYER
Dear Father I believe I receive grace today for diligence and consistency in the Word of God in Jesus Name. Amen.
For further study read:
Deuteronomy 28:1, Hebrews 11:6, Isaiah 59:21
DOING THE WORD
Consciously meditate on the Word of God day and night, and you can also start reading a chapter in the book of Proverbs daily if you haven't started.
