There is a key to success that we can use to unlock each day’s blessings. The Lord desires that we awaken each morning with a sense of expectancy about the day that is rooted in our faith that HE is our loving God, our provider who wants to bless us beyond our ability to imagine.

In I Kings 2:3 the Word reveals the secret to discovering the good our Heavenly Father desires to bestow upon His children. If we will but apply it, we enhance our opportunity to walk in the fullness of His provision and to realize the utmost of our potential.

He says, “Keep the charge of the Lord your God and walk in His ways. Keep His statutes, abide in His commandments that you may prosper in all your ways.” Proverbs 23:7 further affirms that, “As a man thinks in his heart, so is he.” In concert, these verses assure us that if we hide the Word of God in our hearts, it shall be the reservoir from which will flow all that we think and all that we do. It will be the core of who we are.

From that core of truth, from that well of honor and integrity from which our words and our actions will emerge, prosperity will materialize. When we have allowed the law of God to be the basis of our existence, the realization of His plan for our lives shall be the outcome. When we are at the center of His will, we can know that we shall not be disappointed in our hope. Keeping the charge of the Lord inevitably keeps us blessed and secure.
