A Recipe For Good Success – Bible study

Without Gods instructions, Joshua would have failed at leading the Israelites into the Promised Land. The first instruction was to be strong and of good courage (Joshua 1:6). Next, he was to continually meditate on the Book of the Law, and finally, he was to do everything it said. As long as Joshua followed these instructions, God promised him good success (Joshua 1:8; cf. Psalm 1:2).

Gods recipe for success can work for us too, but His idea of success has little to do with money, popularity, or even good health.

In the original Hebrew, the phrase then you will have good success means then you will act wisely (see Strong’s 7919, 1. d. 1.).

Just as God called Joshua to walk in wisdom, He wants us to walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise (Ephesians 5:15).

As we feast on Gods word, and obey Him, we have a recipe for good success thats better than anything the world defines as success.
