For if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. (Romans 8:13)

Many people are reacting to life instead of leading it. They respond to circumstances as if circumstances are in charge. But that’s not your identity.

Everything in this world was created to respond to faith. But if you constantly live in the flesh—reacting, worrying, comparing—you will feel controlled by what you see in front of you instead of being led by the Spirit.

The fruit of greatness is this: it subdues. It doesn’t panic. It doesn’t surrender. It doesn’t complain. It stands firm. And that greatness is already in you because you are in Christ. The issue is not whether you have it—the issue is whether you are using it.

You are not here to escape this world, nor to cry or beg God, because His Spirit in you is your help and your greatness. You are here to express God’s greatness in real situations—in your profession, in your decisions, in your family, in your body, in every aspect of your life and your world.

So today, stand. Speak. Act from the Spirit. Circumstances may be loud—but they are not lord. Jesus Christ is Lord over your life, and with Him, you are a dispenser of greatness! Glory!

Prayer:
Precious Father, I refuse to live reacting to life. I live by the Spirit. I stand in the greatness You have placed within me, and I make every circumstance bow through my triumphant faith. My faith is alive and working, producing the desired results, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

For we walk by faith, not by sight. (2 Corinthians 5:7)

As a child of God, you are never meant to respond to situations based on what you see. You respond based on what God has said. When contrary situations arise, your responsibility is to stand your ground on the Word. God’s Word is unshakable, unchanging, and eternal—it is your foundation in every season.

Satan cannot overpower a believer; he can only influence through thoughts. This is why you must refuse thoughts of fear, defeat, or inadequacy. Renew your consciousness through the Word of God—see yourself as God sees you: victorious, bold, and unstoppable. When you build your life on the Word, no storm can shake you.

Light afflictions are temporary. They don’t come to drown you; they come to lift you. As you look at the unseen, eternal realities, the visible challenges lose their power. Bible says, “the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal” (2 Corinthians 4:18). Keep your eyes on God’s promises.

When anything comes against you, remember—it arrived with a purpose. And that purpose is fulfilled when you face it with the boldness of the Spirit and emerge victorious over it and shine forth the glory of God.

Prayer:
Heavenly Father, I thank You for Your Word which is my firm foundation. I stand boldly in faith, unaffected by what I see. My heart is fixed on Your truth, and I walk in continuous victory, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

His might is real not a superstition https://secretofsuccess.org/2025/06/19/his-might-is-real-not-a-superstition-2/ https://secretofsuccess.org/2025/06/19/his-might-is-real-not-a-superstition-2/#respond Thu, 19 Jun 2025 07:27:33 +0000 https://secretofsuccess.org/?p=2835 For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man (Ephesians 3:14-16).

For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man (Ephesians 3:14-16).

In our main verse, Apostle Paul is praying for the saints in Ephesus. He prayed that way because, the people hadn’t come to the full knowledge of the divine might at work in them by reason of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit.

This might of God is not a superstition, rather it is based on the word of God. When a person makes up any baseless idea depending on things they see or hear, that’s a superstition. However, when you act on His Word and exercise your faith, you unleash the power of your recreated spirit into your world. Let’s see what Jesus said: “Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give” (Matthew 10:8).

Don’t be surprised when you realize that He is not saying that, “I will do it”, rather, he’s asking you to do it. This may not happen on the very first day. But, it all begins today when you choose to take control of your life. Do you know you can prophesy and speak peace, over your country or family? Do you know you can intercede for someone and have him/her saved? Do you know you can proclaim the word of God and deal with your issues? Before setting a huge target, win small battles. And that’s how you begin today.

Learn self-control and that time is not far when not only will you take control of your situation, but also of your loved ones. That time is not far when people around, you will come to you because they will recognize, that when you pray, there is a change in their lives. Discipline yourself and ensure that you will study God’s word every day. Congratulations, your future is bright!

Prayer
Thank you, Father, that I am made alive in my inner man with your might. I live each day with divine consciousness. I refuse to live an ordinary life. From today, I will take control of my situation. I will prophesy and reroute my future to glory, in the Name of Jesus. Amen

Do not withdraw https://secretofsuccess.org/2025/04/24/do-not-withdraw/ https://secretofsuccess.org/2025/04/24/do-not-withdraw/#respond Thu, 24 Apr 2025 02:08:03 +0000 https://secretofsuccess.org/?p=2379 Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him (Hebrews 10:38) There are many people who begin their journey with God, with zeal, but don’t continue with the same zeal.

Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him (Hebrews 10:38)

There are many people who begin their journey with God, with zeal, but don’t continue with the same zeal. When they get born again, learn the things of Spirit and learn the lessons of faith and act on them, they get instant results because of God’s baby-favors and they love it. But, as they grow in Christ, God expects them to grow, to learn to fight their fight of faith, to overcome challenges and to think beyond themselves and be a kingdom-minded person; that’s when some folks withdraw from God. The same God whom they loved, now is no more interesting to them, God doesn’t rejoice in such people and hence, the devil gets an open chance in the lives of such people.

Some people always want to run away from the works committed to their hands in the kingdom, they just want to enjoy the good things that come as a package with the Gospel, but sadly they don’t want to stand for the Gospel; however they forget, this Gospel is the only secret to promotion and greatness. Jesus said, “And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name’s sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life. But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.” (Mathew 19:29-30)

No one who walked with God since the Bible days till today has ever been broke or sick or cast down. The times of challenges and tribulations are tests, and you must stand as a worthy child in those times, so that He may grant you the inheritance which was meant for you. Don’t miss the mark. Do not withdraw!

Confession:

I refuse to withdraw. I stand as a worthy son of my Father. I study the Word and am guided by the Word of God alone, which reveals to me the mind of God, and His plans for my life. I fulfill God’s plan in my life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen!
