How to fulfill your destiny with excellence! In this podcast I talk specifically about how to recover loss and take action against attacks on your mind, your body, your emotions, and your possessions!SUCCESS THROUGH ACTION SERIES – PART 5 (FINAL) MUSIC / INTRO YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE A WONDERFUL FUTURE Remember that ACTION keeps you under the anointing so that you are as a new, sharp threshing instrument. Knowing that the enemy's KEY INTENTION is to STOP your action, you now have military intelligence as to his plans. Your main focus NOW should be on developing a spirit of excellence in your action. That's what The University of Excellence is about. There are SEVEN (7) things you need to cultivate a spirit of excellence: 1. VISION Spend time with God. Pray and fast for:  A fresh vision; and, A prophetic, apostolic anointing. 2. DETERMINATION You need "bulldog" endurance and perseverance. You can't be a "pansy" and you can't be a quitter. Be a warrior and remember: If you don't quit, you will win! (But if you quit, you can't win!) 3. PRIORITIES You need to put God's program FIRST in life. He will show you when you need to spend time for family, for recreation, and for fellowship. At times, He may have you spend LOTS of time on family, recreation, and fellowship. But don't try to replace God's Kingdom as your top priority. "You seek first the kingdom of God, and all things will be added unto you." (Matthew 6:33) MUSIC 4. ACCOUNTABILITY   Accountability will give you real liberty. You need to be accountable to: Jesus, the Great Pastor; and, Others, in ministry. 5. REST   You need to rest one day a week. This is God's plan and is necessary for your overall long-term health and blessing. At times, He may lead you to take extended periods of rest. Always obey Him in these matters. He knows what is best for you . . . and for those to whom you minister. You can't minister effectively if you're worn out or burnt out! "For thus says the LORD God, the Holy One of Israel, In returning and rest you will be saved; in quietness and confidence will be your strength." (Isaiah 30:15) Honoring and keeping the Sabbath will also enable you to appropriate the rewards of a spirit of EXCELLENCE: delight, dominion, and desires granted. (Isaiah 58:13-14) 6. A HEART FOR GOD The prophet Samuel said, "The LORD has sought him a man after his own heart," describing King David. (1 Samuel 13:14) After being anointed, and successful as a king and military leader - the champion of the people - King David sinned greatly. Even in the midst of his sin, he had a heart toward God, which caused him to repent. He paid dearly for his sin, but even in the midst of his sin, he loved God and was repentant. MUSIC In all his public official conduct he acted according to the Divine mind, and fulfilled the will of his Maker: thus was he a man after God's own heart. In reference to his private or personal moral conduct, the word is never used. So what was his problem? Why did David sin? The answer is: He didn't FEAR God. He loved God, but He didn't fear Him! We need to be not only morally reverent towards God, but also to have a sense of alarm that will keep us from walking off the path of righteousness. We need to think ahead of time about the consequences of our sin and transgression. Our Father in Heaven loves us too much to let us get away with such behavior. There is not much preaching on holiness anymore.  We need to LOVE GOD and to FEAR GOD; then we will have a heart for God. In David's rulership of the Kingdom, in his official conduct, he fulfilled the will of God; however, in his private life and personal conduct he failed miserably - but then repented. This brings to light THREE very important things to consider: Your actions can bring reproach on God, yourself, your family, your friends, your nation, and your cause. Your actions can give your enemies occasion to slander you and also mock the God you are supposed to be serving.   Your actions can bring severe judgment upon you and your family. In the heat of temptation you need to consider these things. Are you willing to pay the price? Do you LOVE God and your family enough to protect them from the results of your sin? Do you FEAR God enough to prohibit you from doing the thing(s) you are considering? MUSIC 7. INTEGRITY Honesty and moral uprightness are the KEY INDICATORS of the God shaped life. The deeper your character, the greater your impact! Many things that we question in life, even small things, are a TEST of our integrity. God is constantly testing us to see if we can be entrusted with greater giftings, talents, skills, and responsibilities. Integrity is a two edged sword. It is an instrument of blessing: For ourselves - We must live with ourselves in all good conscience. "For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things. Beloved if our heart condemn us not, then we have confidence toward God." (1 John 3:20-21) This assures us of answered prayer and provision. "And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight." (Verse 22) For others - Our families, our friends, our parishioners, our communities . . . our progeny . . . all are impacted by our integrity. The quality of our life is a direct antecedent of the same. The degree of EXCELLENCE of your life and ministry predetermines your future . . . and many times, the future of those to whom you minister and love. LIVE A LIFE OF EXCELLENCE!
