God wants you to enjoy abundant success in every area of your life. Success not only allows us to enjoy the best life, but it is also a reflection of God's goodness and glory. Check out these three simple steps on how to define success for your life this year!

Scripture Gem: "Commit your actions to the LORD, and your plans will succeed." ~ Proverbs 16:3

This passage in Proverbs 16:3 holds wisdom as simple as ABC on how to define success in all areas of your life. This scripture gem shows us that we must A. follow, B. possess, and C. prosper in every area of our lives to enjoy God's abundant success throughout your life.

A. Follow

The word success originally meant "to follow after". The first step to defining success this year is going to take making a decision on whose definition of success you are willing to follow.

Reflection: How have you defined success for your life in the past?  How did you come to this definition?

Everyday Wisdom: So, every day I must decide to: FOLLOW God's terms of success.

B. Possess

Success requires action! Whatever you plan to do this year will require you to seize some things or dispossess other things. Inaction is the enemy of success.

Reflection: Ask God what are you to possess (start doing) this year in every area of your life and what are you to dispossess (stop doing)?

1. Relationships & Love
2. Career
3. Money & Time Creation
4. Health & Fitness
5. Personal & Spiritual Growth

Everyday Wisdom: So, expect to work to: POSSESS the abundant success of God!

 C. Prosper

There is a quote that says, "If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail." When we start something without first asking God for a plan than that is a sure-fire way to see inconsistent success.

Reflection: Ask God for practical steps to possessing the goals you received in prayer during step B.

Everyday Wisdom: So, every day to: PROSPER I must ask God for wisdom!

Put these steps into practice every day and you will experience God's abundant success in your life.
