SUCCESS IN COMPETITION
Daniel 1:17-20; Exod. 31:2,3,6
Success in any competitive venture.
Breakthroughs in selective processes.
The record of Daniel’s success story in the strange idolatrous land of Babylon should pose a challenge to you as a believer in Christ. You stand a better chance of succeeding more than Daniel, owing to the availability of grace now which was absent at his time. Why not ask God for an outstanding success in all your endeavours.
Joshua 4:14: “On that day the Lord magnified Joshua
in the sight of all Israel; and they feared him, as they feared Moses all the days of his life.”
For you to win you need the Lord’s favour. Once the Lord is on your side and He is with you, He will magnify you before the panel of judges, just as He magnified Joshua before the Israelites.
You need to spend time preparing, physically and spiritually. Your spiritual preparation includes handling these prayer points violently and fervently.
“The race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the weak, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.” Relax! According to this Scripture, your success does not depend how good you are. God is in control and if you are faithful to His laws, He will honour you before the panel of judges.
You also need to prepare physically. Before you face the panel make sure you are well-dressed, neat and tidy. When Pharaoh, sent for Joseph from the prison, before Joseph came to Pharaoh, the Bible records, “he shaved himself, and changed his raiment, and came unto Pharaoh” (Genesis 41:14). You have to look good! Also you need to have all the relevant facts and information at your finger tips!
As you prayerfully prepare, God will magnify you before
the panel of Judges, favour you and give you victory.

4 . Quote these scriptures against satan, worry, anxiety, fear and negative circumstances.
Ask the Father in the name of Jesus for the desire of your heart. Believe that you have already received.
Resolve not to allow doubt to enter your mind. Reject every thought of failure and doubt. REJECT every dream, vision and prophecy that tells you that your prayers are not answered.
See yourself in the new position and keep confessing it.
Always give thanks to God for the answer to your prayer.
