Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings,and doeth them,I will shew you to whom he is like: He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock, and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it, for it was founded upon a rock (Luke 6:47-48).

A dear minister of Gospel once asked this question:"How come some ministers serve God for so many years and then somehow end badly? How can we get to finish gloriously and not fail?" And the response given to him was to refer him to the words of Jesus in in my theme scripture. If we pay attention to his word, we will always win. He told us to hear and live His Word.
Preaching the Word and living the Word are two different things. Just because you are preaching doesn't mean it's working in your life, you must live the word. The word of God is the answer to every question and the solution to every problem. That is why we share and teach the word, to help God's people understand the word and live the Word.
The Apostle Paul was very successful as a minister of the gospel. At the end, he declared, "I have fought a good fight,i have finished my course, i have kept the faith..." (2 Timothy 4:7). He proved and lived the Word for himself . In Acts 20:32, he acknowledged and reiterated the efficacy of God's Word, in his parting remarks to the brethren in the church at Ephesus. It is about staying in the Word.
God has already given you everything you could ever need in your life. He is given you everything you could ever your life. He's given you righteousness, health, success, peace, prosperity, victory, and all things in Christ Jesus. Seize them and make yours. Don't try to get "anything" from God, you already have all things that pertain to life and godliness (2 peter 1:3).
Therefore, every so often, declare, I'm the righteousness of God in Christ. I have the life of God in me. I'm a success. I walk in health, prosperity, peace, and Joy!" Your confess of the Word manifests realities. Stay in the word, and your success in life and ministry shall be guaranteed for all time.
