Family Success and All Round Success

 Imagine an executive woman that is a miserable wife and a depressed mother. Imagine a successful businessman with one or two wanted people as family members. Success in life is always threatened or hindered by lack of family success. All round success is only possible when there is peace, love and harmony in the family.

The emotional stress and strain that come with troubled family will inevitably affect your productivity at work. The mind is crowded with worried thoughts and cannot focus to reason well. Your relationship with co-workers, clients or staff deteriorates and everything goes haywire. Success in life is hinged to your family success.

No matter how insignificant an issue at home may seem initially, if not curbed may escalate to an undesirable situation. There is need for one to pay more attention to the family and make every necessary contribution towards her success. A family is like a garden that needs to be attended to regularly; otherwise, the weeds will over power the crops.

It is an erroneous decision to ignore the family and pursue your personal success. This is because a bad family reputation will haunt you. If you have a thief in the family, you will always be referred to as the sister or brother of the thief. A Leopard cannot run away from its spots.

7 Benefits Of Quiet Time

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you” Matt 6:33 (KJV). You are a product of what you do daily. Having daily quiet times with God is the best investment into your all round success in life.

Quiet time is the time you spend in God’s presence, reading His word and praying. It is a time you shut down every other thing to focus on God. It is a time to fellowship with God and enjoy the Father-Child relationship.

You rub mind with the Most High God during your time with Him. His virtues rub off on you and you start becoming like Him. That means you become more and more successful as you spend more time with the God of success. Isn’t that great!
Now, let’s look at how Quiet time affects your all round success in life.

Benefits of Quiet time
1.       Wisdom- “And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise...” 2 Tim 3:15 (KJV). Many of our problems are purely wisdom problems.

Furthermore, during prayers God drops the wisdom on how to handle any issue bugging you.

2.       Knowledge-“Call unto me, and I will answer thee and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not” Jer 33:3 (KJV) Quiet time enables you to gain knowledge from the creator of the whole universe. Yes, even that thing that is like a mystery to you!

3.       Understanding- Have you ever gotten to a point where a thing is like parable to you? All that gets sorted out when you spend time in God’s word and in prayer. “But only with God are perfect wisdom and might; He alone has true counsel and understanding” Job 12:13 (AMP) Read more...
