MFM Mountain Top Life Daily Devotional 24 February 2019 By Dr. D.K Olukoya – Managing Success Successfully (III)
TOPIC: Managing Success Successfully (III) (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Daily Devotional 24 February 2019)
Bible In One Year: Numbers 7-8; Mark 4:21-41
FIRE SCRIPTURE: Daniel 4:28-33
MEMORY VERSE: “Now I Nebuchadnezzar praise and extol and honour the King of heaven, all whose works are truth, and his ways judgment: and those that walk in pride he is able to abase. – Daniel 4:37
The MESSAGE:
Nebuchadnezzar was a very great heathen king. He had dreams which Daniel interpreted to Him. One of the dream’s interpretations showed that Nebuchadnezzar would be driven from men and his dwelling would be among beasts. King Nebuchadnezzar was by all means a very successful king and the greatest king on earth in his time, but he did not manage his success well. Hence, the words of Prophet Daniel all came upon him.
One day, the king spoke these words, “Is not this great Babylon, that I have built for the house of the kingdom by the might of my power, and for the honour of my majesty?” Beloved, managing your success well begins with admitting that you did not become successful by your power or might as Nebuchadnezzar wrongly said. It begins with acknowledging that God is the giver of success, position, power and wealth and fame. Secondly, managing your success well entails thanking, praising and glorifying God for giving you success, position, fame, wealth and so on. Nebuchadnezzar erroneously said that he had built Babylon for the honour of his own majesty. He left God out of the praise-giving.
We have several lessons to learn from this biblical account. First, we should always remember that there’s nothing we have that was not given to us by God, the Owner of all things. We should never be fooled to think that we achieved or got anything by our own power. Second, we should always give glory, thanks and praises to God for giving us success in every area of our lives. Without Him we can do nothing. Finally, whatever success God bestows on us should be used to serve God and serve or bless other people. These are the wisdom keys for managing our success. If you are guilty of not managing your success well, or you have been arrogating your success or achievement to your own power, claiming the honour and glory attached to your success yourself and have failed to use your success to serve God and other people, it is time you amended your ways. God restored Nebuchadnezzar when he had a rethink and amended his ways. May God show you great mercy too, in the name of Jesus.
