Christian Success Training- Biblical Success Lessons from the Ant

Christian Success Training- The Success Lessons from the Ant

by Doug Firebaugh

"Go to the ant you sluggard, consider her ways and be wise!"

Proverbs 6:6

Ants.

Have you ever watched them? They can be amazing to watch. They are truly one of God's most incredible creations. They are so focused and determined.

And Success oriented.

Down here in Texas, there what are called "Fire Ants", and boy do they stay busy!

I was watching them recently outside when at our Dallas fulfillment center, and I observed some cool things about them in regards to Success and Achievement.

They have no chief or ruler, except a queen ant, and yet they successfully gathers food in the summer, and gathers supplies in the harvest in a highly orchestrated and organized manner.

I watched one ant in particular, and it was totally trying to go beyond where it was, but it was having a hard time doing it...

It tried to go through it.

It tried to go over it.

It tried to go around it.

It tried to go under it.

It tried to go anywhere it could to get around it, but no way.

Then...

It seemed that God Himself gave the ant a hand, and the ant, by some amazing strength surge, picked up the object, and moved it out of the way. The object had to be 4 times the weight of the ant.

And then without skipping a beat, kept on towards it's Success destination.

Now here is a great question:

If the ant has exhausted all of it's options on the road it is traveling, and God has provided it with strength enough to MOVE something that it cannot possibly get around...

Cannot He do the same for us in our Success Journey?

You know what the word "ANT" stands for?

"A New Thought".

Think about that! The Power of A New Thought!

And that is what we need to do, is create a New Thought about what God can do in your Success Journey.

A New Thought about you.

A New Thought about your potential.

A New Thought about your Success.

A New Thought about what God can do through you.

A New Thought about the Supernatural Power within you.

A New Thought about what is REALLY possible.

A New Thought about your thinking!

Ants stay busy...and THEY REFUSE TO EVER GIVE UP!

Cannot we all learn something from the ant? Even he knows to access the Holy Power of his Creator when he gets stuck in a place that is stopping his Success destination.

Are you doing that with your Christian Success?

His Teachings...His Success.

"My teaching is not my own. It comes from the One Who Sent Me..."
John 7:16

There He sat.

And the crowd was stunned at the eloquence of His words and understanding.

There were men and women shaking their heads at His piecing Words and Electric Emotions. His voice echoed across the courtyard, enveloped by total silence, as no one was talking.

You could have heard a pin drop, as He did not take credit for His teachings, but gave Glory to the Father Who had sent Him.

Jesus was teaching what the Father had taught Him, and the crowd was amazed at the Sound.

Do you realize Jesus still teaches today? But through the Holy Spirit and His Perfecting Work in us all.

If the people were stunned at Christ's teachings, can you imagine what He could teach us about Success? after all, it woul be teachings from the Father Himself.

Would that be worth attending Holy Success School where Jesus is the Headmaster, and the Holy Spirit is the Dean of Education?

Read your Bible, and ask yourself this one question...

"How does this Holy Word apply to Success in life?"

And let the Holy Spirit give you revelation about the scriptures you are reading, and open your eyes to the wealth of meaning buried in the Words...

You think I write these posts??

I just do what I told you to do...

And I am back in Holy Success School...

Taking Bible 101....(smile)

Holy Father,
There is such a richness in the Bible Lord that I want to not only read it, but get lost in the Word. I want the Holy Spirit to open my eyes to what It says about Success and Achieving in life, with You by my side...Lord help me to have 20/20 vision with what Your Word says, and please life the veil so i may see a deeper meaning to the depths of Your Wisdom, and the hidden teachings that so many miss. Thank You for the Word Lord, the Ultimate Success Manual, and thank You for giving me a scholarship to it, through Your Son Jesus!Open my eyes Lord and show me the real Truth of Life and Success! Glory to Your Holy Love and Chosen One! Glory to the Messiah! Praise the Lamb of God! Bless You Lord! We lay our hearts at Your Holy Throne! Glory to the name of Jesus! Hallelujah!!!!!!!

in Jesus' Name,
amen,

The Secret to Having Great Success In Everything.

In everything he did he had great success, because the LORD was with him.
Samuel 18:14

Do you realize that because God is with you, you CAN and WILL have great success?

God is the creator of all Christian Success, including yours, and mine.

The question is, is God with you like He should be? Like He longs to be? Like He sent His Son to die for?

In this verse, it says…EVERYTHING!

Are you limiting God in what he can do in your life?

Are you limiting your own blessings?

Christ is with you….and within you. If you want success in what you do…make sure Christ is in you in ALL you do.

Is He?

Heavenly Father,
Oh the wonderful words that flow from your Word! Help me to keep my eyes and heart focused on you, and please be with me TOTALLY today. Let me draw so close that I can feel your heart beating. Your touch healing….my future and my life. I have failed so miserably at letting You be with me, and today, I realize what an absolute Gift that is for my life and success. Touch my eyes and let me see that I can succeed….for I was blinded by the world. Touch my ears and let me hear that I can succeed…for I was deafened by the world. Please be with me in all I do, for you are the God of the universe. Your universe. And Lord, I am so honored that you would even consider me worthy to spend time with me…let alone hear my prayer. You are the God of my life. You are My Holy Savior. I worship your Name, and Your Holy Love. I will praise You for that, forever.

In Jesus Name,
Amen.
