Theme: Living in God's Abundance - Sharpening your Skills and Abilities

Living in God's abundance is to live and walk in success.

1. God designed and created everyone to live in His success.

Our God is a successful God. God created us according to His image.

- Ephesians 3:20–21

- Psalms 35:27

What is Success?

- Success is the satisfactory realization of a given goal, set objective, or given purpose.

- You cannot succeed if you do not have anything you are following, trying to achieve, or pursuing.

- Have a vision or a dream so that you can become successful.

Genesis 37:5- Joseph had a dream which later came true and became very successful but after some hardship. Joseph was loyal to God and he followed God’s commandments. Dreams build character, resilience and skills that helps on to succeed in life

Proverbs 29:18 – Where there is no vision, the people perish. Therefore, have a vision.

- Vision is a covenant seed for your success.

- It is what positions you for your success.

- Be proactive and not lazy or idle.

Life becomes difficult if you do not have God's purpose.

We need to keep the word God in our mouth, speech, thoughts and obey it fully, because it leads to true prosperity and success (Joshua 1:8).

Jeremiah 29:11 – God has plans for us, plans to prosper us and not harm us, plans to give us hope and a future.

Deuteronomy 8:18 says that we need to remember the Lord, for it is he who gives us the ability to produce wealth.

- God gives us the power to work and be successful.

- Genesis 2:15 – For you to be prosperous, it is not magic; there is work involved.

- Proverbs 10:4 – One who has a slack hand becomes poor, but the hand of the diligent makes rich.

- Proverbs 12:24 – The hand of the diligent will rule, but a lazy person will be put to forced labor. Rule over your life.

- Become an asset and add value to your society, family, and life, rather than being a liability.

- Proverbs 6:9–11, - Proverbs 22:29

- Proverbs 14:23 says that every success is a product of your hard work.

- Wealth gained by dishonesty will be diminished, but he who gathers by labor will increase, this is according to Proverbs 13:11.

God worked, and He also wants us to work.
