Message
The Bible rightly said that, it is the blessings of the Lord that maketh rich and addeth no sorrow. In the world we live in today, we see a lot of people display success, achievements, wealth, fame, just name it, as a mark that they have arrived. Many of these achievements never came through God’s grace but through strife, dishonesty, dubious ways and all kinds of manipulations.
True success begins with knowing and accepting Jesus as one’s personal Lord and Saviour. This is done by turning away from all known sin to Christ and cleaving to Him till the end. When Christ comes in, He teaches and directs our paths through His grace so we can go forward and be very successful. Isaac in our Bible passage was a very successful man, who made gradual progress through God’s grace and success became easy for him.Do you desire true success in life? Then come to Jesus today. He will make your life new and He will give you what it takes to have good success with ease.
