Key #2 for Christian Success
Read the Bible
Joshua 1:8 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.
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.
Make every Day a Positive Day:
At the beginning of each day, you must make the decision to fill your mind up with positive. If you do not actively fill your mind up with positive, then the enemy will fill it up with negative. If we are passive, our minds will automatically become filled with the negatives of the world around us.
When you get saved your spirit is renewed, but it is up to you to renew your mind. The Bible says in Romans 12:2, “And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.”
The best way to get a positive life is by always filling up your mind with Godly and positive things. At the same time, it is important to keep your mind away from ungodly and negative things. Positive Programming will change your mind for the better, which will change your life for the better. You will also be able to hear the voice of God clearer, when it is not competing with all the “voices” of the world.
Jesus said, “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me (John 10:27).” There is a constant battle for your mind between God and Satan. Thoughts continually flood your mind.
Some people eat the“cake of lies” because it has the “frosting” of truth.

Fill your mind up with the Bible and the Bible Verses of Victory. The more we get to know the Bible, the more we will build our faith, and the more we will get to know the voice of God. The only sure way to know whether a thought you have is from God or the enemy is to know God’s Word. God’s will, God’s direction for your life, and His voice will ALWAYS line up with the Bible. We need to have the “mind of Christ” (1 Corinthians 2:16).
The Bible is our powerful weapon! The “armor of God”protects us from evil (Ephesians 6:11). The Bible is our ONLY offensive weapon in this armor. It is called “the sword of the Spirit”(Ephesians 6:17). Every demon in hell trembles when you quote the Bible. The Bible’s message is stronger than drugs, disease, sickness, poverty, greed, lust, and anything else someone faces. Circumstances are temporary, God’s Word is Eternal!
The Bible is the most important book in the world for you. The principles in the Bible will help you answer any problem you will ever have. If you ever wonder why you were put on earth, the Bible will help find God’s wonderful plan and purpose for your life. The Bible is your spiritual food. If you do not “eat it,”you will eventually starve to death spiritually.
To be in great spiritual health, it is crucial for you to read the Bible every day. Leaders are readers. People who cannot read are no different then people who will not read. The Bible says, “as newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow (1 Peter 2:2).”
Another important reason to read God’s word is to make sure we are praying according to God’s word. God’s word is His will. Our prayers must be according to God’s will (1 John 5:14-15). For every “problem”,there is a “solution” according to God’s word. Always pray “Positive Prayers” that are filled with “solutions” from the Bible! Pray the answer according to God’s word. This is not a denial that you have problems, but the belief that God is bigger than all problems.
Always keep the mindset, “With God all things are possible!” God’s words (in the Bible) are the most powerful force in the universe. God’s words created the universe, and still have creative power for your life today. God always honors the promises found in His word. “God has never broken any promise He has spoken”
Speaking and praying God’s words puts you in unity with God, and taps you into God’s unlimited power. You need an anointed mind àto produce anointed thoughts à to say anointed words àto produce anointed results.
Jesus is the Word (John 1:1). When you fill yourself up with the Word of God, you are filling yourself up with the Spirit of Jesus. This brings anointing and power. Jesus is our “bread of life” and “living water”. Putting the word of God totally in you puts God totally in you. This drives the ungodly out of you. Holiness is inward likeness to God. It is being like God from the inside-out. God
inside of you attracts Godly blessings!
We should not try to change the message of the truth; we must allow the message of the truth to change us.
