Bible Reading: Joshua 1:8, Romans 12:11
Memory Verse: The LORD will make you the head and not the tail; you will only move upward and never downward if you listen to the LORD your God’s commands I am giving you today and are careful to follow them. Deuteronomy 28:13 (HCSB)
Do you know God is still committed to making your life a success no matter the failures of your past in the remaining part of this year and beyond? Be inspired by the testimonies of these prominent men and women God moved from failure to success.
1. Dr. Ben Carson said, “I struggled academically throughout elementary school yet became the best Neurosurgeon in the World in 1987”. Lesson: Struggling is a sign that you are on a verge of success. Don’t quit yet.
2. Oprah Winfrey said, “I was raped at the age of 9 yet, I am one of the most influential women in the World”. Lesson: Don’t let your past decide your future.
3. Bill Gate said, “I didn’t even complete my university education but became the World’s richest man”. Lesson: School does not make people rich. School only polishes what makes people rich.
4. Joyce Meyer said, “I was sexually, mentally, emotionally and verbally abused by my father as far back as I can remember, until I left home at the age of eighteen, yet I am one of the most influential preachers in the World”. Lesson: Let your past push you, not define or limit you.
5. Cristiano Ronaldo said, “I told my father that we would be very rich but he couldn’t believe me. I made it a reality”. Lesson: Your words rule your life. Say it if you must see it.
6. Nelson Mandela said, “I was in prison for 27 years and still became president”. Lesson: You can be anything you want to be no matter where you have been or what you have been through.
7. Mike Adenuga said, “I drove a taxi to finance my university education but today I’m a billionaire”. Lesson: Don’t let your past decide the kind of future you need to have.
8. Former British Prime Minister, Tony Blair said “My teachers used to call me a failure, but I became a Prime Minister. Lesson: Don’t let someone else’s opinion of you become your reality.
9. Harland Sanders, Founder of KFC said, “I was on the verge of suicide when an idea of opening a restaurant hit me after I retired as a cook in the Navy.” Lesson: Nothing is ever too late. “Too late” is a language of failures. Your future can begin at any age. Don’t ever let age make limit you.
