Worship 1
Speaker: K. Rithi (Lim)
What is the face of success?
1 Corinthians 13:13
 
 
The world`s version of success means..
To be rich, successful in business.
Examples Elon musk, Oprah winfrey,
 
Maslow`s 5 needs. A successful person has a Target in life. What is the success?
Survival. Safety. Belongingness. Importance. Self-actualization.
 
How can the success happen? how will we achieve it?
Apostle Paul says we need these three things (he himself is very successful)
 
1. Believe or faith
It`s the beginning of everything
If you believe you can, you will move towards the goal. Exodus 11:1
When we lose the need to succeed, it will become meaningless.
Who will show us what we need is necessary or good for us?
We may not know what`s good for us.
God knows the answer to what we need. Matthew 6:25-26
If God can take care of birds, God will take care of us too. Matthew 6:31-33
Whatever we need God knows, just talk to Him, ask Him.
Believe that success happens and that God will lead us to success when we ask Him.
 
2. Hope.
Hope helps us handle the apps and downs of life.
Why as Christians we still have problems?
Difference is every problem or obstacle we face God is behind us, supporting us and giving us hope. 2 Corinthians 1:8-10
Every time God can save us and He will save us again and again.
 
3. Love.
Love is the greatest of all.
An indicator that tells us what we have put in so much to achieve is real. 1 Corinthians 13:1-3
If everything is done without love, there is no value, or meaning.
Apostle Paul says if things are done without love it does not show the sincerity.
If we help charity because of the name and fame and popularity, but no love it does not have any meaning at all. Romans 5:8
 
We should see the people who lacks the opportunities
The people who are in need.
Love yourself first, love God and then love others.
