It Has Been Predestined for You To Prosper. If You Do It, It Will Work

1 Corinthians 15:58

Therefore, my brother and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.

 Psalms 62:12

“Power belongs to you, God, and with you, Lord, is unfailing love”; and, “You reward everyone according to what they have done.”

Romans 2:6-8

God “will repay each person according to what they have done.” To those who by persistence in doing good seek glory, honor and immortality, he will give eternal life. But for those who are self-seeking and who reject the truth and follow evil, there will be wrath and anger.

Doing As Your Heart Desires

When people follow their own desires, they lose the path to eternal life because they sin and make mistakes. They deviate from God’s Will, and as a result, their eternal destiny changes. That is why you must entrust your heart to the absolute God and to the Lord. If you do not, you may turn a good destiny into one of destruction by acting according to your emotions, state of mind, the surrounding atmosphere, or your mood in any given moment.

When you act solely based on your immediate desires, you fail to consider the grace you have received from God and the Lord in the past. If you make decisions focusing only on the present moment, it will impact your destiny. You must become someone who belongs to God and the Lord. Entrust both your path and your heart to the Lord. If you live according to your own desires and emotions, rather than God’s Will, your heart will ultimately determine your destiny. You will reap according to what you have done.

Shaping Your Heart

You must shape your heart by fully embracing the heart of the Lord Jesus Christ. If you think wrongly and make decisions based on anger in a given moment, you will walk down a path where your destiny tilts toward destruction. You must burn away and eliminate all harmful paths so that you do not suffer each time you travel them. In other words, you must purify your heart.

You will receive according to the state of your heart and your actions. God repays everyone based on the good or evil of their heart. People act as they do because they fail to control their own hearts—especially when it comes to habitual behavior. The key to controlling your heart is removing the wrong desires. Only then can you control your heart, because it will become lighter.

Whenever you act according to God’s Will, things turn out infinitely better than when you follow your own thoughts. You will prosper both in your physical life and in the eternity of your spirit. You must pray so that you do not act according to your own thoughts, and you must work hard to control your heart through the Holy Spirit and the Word. Always entrust your entire heart to God, the Holy Spirit, and the Lord.

The Source of Life

The source of life is determined by one’s heart and thoughts. You will succeed if you work hard. When you take action, you gain confidence. If your heart, thoughts, and will are strong, you will succeed. Having the right mindset is essential for success. The Trinity treats you according to how you treat Them. A person’s heart is the source of life, and one’s destiny is determined by the heart.

Your heart is like an engine—it should run with goodness. If you examine your heart and find it is not in a good state, you must stop and correct it, no matter who tells you otherwise. Your heart will become strong and perfect when you believe in and serve the Almighty God and become one with the Lord. You cannot walk this path alone, for you will lose strength along the way. You must rely on the Almighty God and remain unwavering in your faith.

The world operates through counterparts. You must connect with the Almighty Trinity, and They will work upon you only if you become Their counterpart—by listening to the Word, believing it, obeying it, loving Them, and living according to Their Will. Always be mindful of your heart and thoughts. Only then will God and the Holy Spirit take action according to your faith and deeds.

Align yourself with God’s time and His heart. Your greatest resources are the Bible, God, the Holy Spirit, and Jesus. You can prosper through prayer, studying the Word, and consistently taking action over time. God has a unique Will for each person—He raises them, teaches them, and uses them according to His plan. Those who follow the flow of God’s time period prosper eternally because God has predestined it. Even God Himself acts according to His own time and plan.
