Find your purpose 1

“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.”
Jeremiah 29:11

The second key you need to adhere to be truly successful is for you to discover God's plan and purpose for your life. The whole secret of a successful life is to find out what is in one's destiny to do and then do it. The true measure of success is the fulfillment of your own destiny.

When you follow God's plan for your life, prosperity, protection and longevity is guaranteed. A man was dying of a heart attack and while he was unconscious, he had an encounter with God, he said he told the Lord that there was so much he had not done that He told him to do, so he should not die now, and he said immediately, he found himself back in his body. Why? Your vision preserves your life. That is why so long as you stay within the confines of God's vision for your life, you cannot die prematurely.  

For instance, until Jesus was ready to lay down His life according to the set time God had determined,

He could not be killed even when they attempted to kill him according to Luke 4:28-30, “And all they in the synagogue, when they heard these things, were filled with wrath, And rose up, and thrust him out of the city, and led him unto the brow of the hill whereon their city was built, that they might cast him down headlong. But he passing through the midst of them went his way,” Why could they not kill him? It was not time and he had not completed all the things He was sent to do in the fulfillment of the scriptures as it was written concerning Him.

Prayer.
 Dear Father, I thank you for I am filled with the knowledge of Your will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
