Success in Everything!


I'm a priest at home in Stockholm again... Love this city and the church God has trusted me with! Gatherings with the Pastoral Team, our Leadership team for the youth ministry, briefings with staff and coworkers... Fun! Exciting and progressive at the same time!

I am meditating today on that God wants us to succeed!
God said to Joshua;

Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it.
Jos 1:8a

In other words; speak the Word of God, mumble and mutter the promises of God all the time, day and night. Love the Bible and all its promises for you...

Then you will be prosperous and successful. 
Jos 1:8b

The Bible says; but whose delight is in the law of the LORD, 
   and who meditates on his law day and night. 
Ps 1:2

That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, 
   which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. 
Ps 1:3a

And then it says it AGAIN! Listen!

...whatever they do prospers. 
Ps 1:3b
We have successful and healthy marriages! We succeed in raising our kids to become godly men and women! We succeed at at being healthy, both mentally and physically! We succeed at having our day off and take vacations! We succeed at reaching our goals!
We succeed at setting time off for the gym, serve the car, clean the house and help our kids with their homework ;). We succeed at evangelizing, missions and discipling people! Our finances are a success! We succeed at doing a good job, being liked by our collegues, be promoted and do sucessful business! We succeed in everything!

Thank you God for your Promises!

See ya!
