TODAY’S TOPIC: Succeeding without the success 

Text: Deuteronomy 34:1-7 (NIV):


34:1. Then Moses climbed Mount Nebo from the plains of Moab to the top of Pisgah, across from Jericho. There the LORD showed him the whole land--from Gilead to Dan,

34:2. all of Naphtali, the territory of Ephraim and Manasseh, all the land of Judah as far as the western sea,

34:3. the Negev and the whole region from the Valley of Jericho, the City of Palms, as far as Zoar.

34:4.. Then the LORD said to him, "This is the land I promised on oath to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob when I said, 'I will give it to your descendants.' I have let you see it with your eyes, but you will not cross over into it."

34:5. And Moses the servant of the LORD died there in Moab, as the LORD had said.

34:6. He buried him in Moab, in the valley opposite Beth Peor, but to this day no one knows where his grave is.

34:7. Noses was a hundred and twenty years old when he died, yet his eyes were not weak nor his strength gone.


SHOWER (Reflection):

There is need for you to pray and work against any spirit of near success syndrome or achieving success you cannot join in celebrating. It is just dying a day one is to collect an award or certificate or collecting appointment letter and salary only to die before reaching home. Moses like we all know, was used by God to librate the Israelites from the hands of Pharaoh and Egyptians. Unfortunately, God told him and Aaron that they won't enter the promised land. This was due to how they displayed act of unfaithfulness in the book of Numbers 20:23-29. He was instructed by God to speak to the rock and it will gush out water. But he went and hit the rock two times. This kind disobedience has caused many lives. You know the worst is that it makes them to labour for others to eat. May God not allow us to see same situation in Jesus name, Amen. The only way is to pay attentiveness to God's words and follow it diligently without fear or favour.
