Wow, Psalm 19 is filled with splendor and wisdom for yesterday, today and forever:

Psa 19:1 — Psa 19:14

The Perfect Revelation of the Lord
To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.

The heavens declare the glory of God;
And the firmament shows His handiwork.
Day unto day utters speech,
And night unto night reveals knowledge.
There is no speech nor language
Where their voice is not heard.
Their line has gone out through all the earth,
And their words to the end of the world.
In them He has set a tabernacle for the sun,
Which is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber,
And rejoices like a strong man to run its race.
Its rising is from one end of heaven,
And its circuit to the other end;
And there is nothing hidden from its heat.
The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul;
The testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple;
The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart;
The commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes;
The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever;
The judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.
More to be desired are they than gold,
Yea, than much fine gold;
Sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.
Moreover by them Your servant is warned,
And in keeping them there is great reward.
Who can understand his errors?
Cleanse me from secret faults.
Keep back Your servant also from presumptuous sins;
Let them not have dominion over me.
Then I shall be blameless,
And I shall be innocent of great transgression.
Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
Be acceptable in Your sight,
O Lord, my strength and my Redeemer.

Godly Success Formula

(FxA) x [GP x (GW x GT)] = SA + HR

 

(Faith x Action) x [God’s Power / (God’s Will x God’s Timing)] = Significant Accomplishment + Heavenly Rewards

 

Faith (F) = Personal belief, prayer and confidence in a higher power. Faith is only as effective as what is behind it. There is no greater faith than in Jesus Christ. Only faith in Jesus carries into heaven and is endorsed by the Holy Spirit. Anyone can access some of these principles but it requires accessing the Holy Spirit for ultimate power.

 

And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who approaches Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him. Hebrew 11:6

 

And He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace and be healed of your affliction.” Mark 5:34

 

And Jesus said unto him, Go thy way; thy faith hath made thee whole. And immediately he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way. Mark 10:52

 

“for from the first day that you purposed to understand and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I have come in response to them. Daniel 10:12

All things are possible to him who believes.” Mark 9:23

 

Action (A) = A person’s work using the available energy, resources and intellect applied to an endeavor. Action is based on personal power and frequency. 

 

David’s action to fight Goliath. David said to Saul, “Let no man’s heart fail on account of him; your servant will go and fight with this Philistine.” 1 Sam 17:32

 

David’s willingness not to take Saul’s life.

 

Noah’s act of building the Ark.

 

You see that faith was working with his works, and as a result of the works, faith was perfected; James 2:22

 

Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: thy spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness. Psalm 143:10

 

And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not to men; Colossians 3:23-24

 

God’s Power (GP) = His power is infinite. God distributes and shares as we can handle and He wishes.

 

But David said to the Philistine, “You come against me with a dagger, spear, and sword, but I come against you in the name of the LORD of Hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. 1 Sam 17:45

 

The God who girds me with strength Psalms 18:32

 

Finally, my brothers, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Ephesians 6:10-18

 

God’s Will (GW) = Whatever He permits or causes happen or not. God’s Will is what, God’s Timing is when.

 

Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to discern what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God. Roman 12:2

 

But who are you, O man, to talk back to God? Shall what is formed say to Him who formed it, “Why have you made me like this?” 21Does not the potter have the right to make from the same lump of clay one vessel for special occasions and another for common use? 22What if God, intending to show His wrath and make His power known, bore with great patience the vessels of His wrath, prepared for destruction? Romans 9:20-21

 

God’s Timing (GT) = God is beyond our space, matter, & time continuum however He can and does certainly understand it and intervenes at most certain times in our world whenever  He please or permits.

 

But those who wait upon the LORD will renew their strength; they will mount up with wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary; they will walk and not faint. Isaiah 40:31

 

Since his days are determined and the number of his months is with You, and since You have set limits that he cannot exceed, Job 14:5

 

Significant Accomplishments (SA) = truly important things built, people helped and satisfaction enabled. Without Faith God rarely moves. Faith is required for anything eternal or supernatural to happen. 

 

Heavenly Rewards (HR) = God is an amazing Giver, most than we can imagine. Somethings we do here on earth carry on into Heaven. Eternal rewards are stored up for us as Jesus taught.

 

Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, Mathew 5:12

 

A wicked person earns deceptive wages, but the one who sows righteousness reaps a sure reward. Proverbs 11:18
