We must make sure that we do not decide that we shall succeed. If we decide to succeed then we may succeed without succeeding in God's way. But if we go on from day to day seeking to do his will, then we shall be prepared to receive success from him if he wills it; and if he does not, then humbly to say, "It is God's decision that David shall not build the temple, but he will raise up Solomon."
Timeless wisdom for pastors with forward-thinking solutions.
