I came across the post below and I thought to share it with the good people of Nairaland because I can testify to the fact that my life changed when I realized that I had exhausted my strength and wisdom so had no choice than to surrender to God and learn to do things His way.

Indeed doing things God's way cannot be overemphasized. I discovered putting Him first, letting Him lead/guide me and obeying His commands were a system of advantage that brought great benefits and positive result in my life as I reflected on how I moved from struggling and borrowing to pay N45,000/year three to four times for a single room in a flat to paying N600,000 once for a flat.

Below is the post and I hope it blesses and inspires someone

"The Good Land

Today's Scripture

Deuteronomy 8:7, NIV

“For the LORD your God is bringing you into a good land—a land with brooks, streams, and deep springs gushing out into the valleys and hills.”

Today's Word
God has a place prepared for you just like He prepared a place for His people in Scripture. Notice that in this place God has prepared, there is no shortage of resources, no shortage of favor, no shortage of health, no shortage of creativity, of friendships, of joy and peace. In the good land, you will lack no good thing. He wants to lead you into a good land that’s flowing with increase, flowing with good breaks, flowing with opportunities. He wants you to live in a place where you not only have enough for yourself, but you’re running over with blessings for others.

If you’re not in this good land, don’t settle there. The key is, in order to get God’s results, we have to do things God’s way. Our obedience is what opens the door to His blessings. We have to do our part and humble ourselves before Him and keep pressing forward with an attitude of faith and expectancy. Today, put Him first, follow His commands, and let Him lead you into the good land.

Prayer for Today
“
Father, thank You for Your goodness and faithfulness in my life and for the good land that You have prepared for me. I humble myself before You and desire to be obedient in every area of my life. I want to follow You as You lead me into the land of more than enough in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen."
