God's Formula for SUCCESS -

7 Principles
#1 Letting God's Grace Labor in Us and with Us
"But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without

effect. No, I worked harder than all of them—yet not I, but the grace of God that
was with me." (1 Corinthians 15:10)

#2 Trusting and Searching for God's Provision

"Then you will have success if you are careful to observe the decrees and laws that
the Lord gave Moses for Israel. Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or
discouraged." (1st Chronicles 22:13)

#3 Remaining True to the Lord with All Our Hearts

"When he arrived and saw what the grace of God had done, he was glad and
encouraged them all to remain true to the Lord with all their hearts." (Acts 11:23)

#4 Continuing With What We Have Learned

"But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced

of, because you know those from whom you learned it, and how from infancy you
have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation
through faith in Christ Jesus." (2 Timothy 3:14-15)

#5 Being Devoted and Diligent

"Until I come, devote yourself to the public reading of Scripture, to preaching and
to teaching. Do not neglect your gift, which was given you through prophecy
when the body of elders laid their hands on you. Be diligent in these matters; give
yourself wholly to them, so that everyone may see your progress." (1 Timothy 4:13-
15)

#6 Persevering in Life and Doctrine

"Watch your life and doctrine closely. Persevere in them, because if you do, you

will save both yourself and your hearers." (1 Timothy 4:16)

#7 Boasting in the Lord and Our Own Sphere of Service

"We, however, will not boast beyond proper limits, but will confine our boasting to
the sphere of service God himself has assigned to us, a sphere that also includes
you." (2 Corinthians 10:13)
