*OUR DAILY MANNA DEVOTIONAL*
_A DEVOTIONAL BOOKLET FOR CHAMPIONS_
*DATE: SUNDAY 31ST MARCH, 2019*
*TOPIC: BUSINESS SECRETS OF THE ANCIENT GREEKS!*
*BASIC SCRIPTURES: ECCLESIASTES 1:9-10; JOSHUA 1:1-28*
As this quarter ends today, thank God for the gift of life! But let me share an old formula for success that dates back to the ancient Greeks (12th – 9th centuries BC). And almost everyone who achieves great and lasting success in today’s world is still using it! Please apply it in the next quarter of this year as in the next ODM! *The formula has three steps:*
(1) Find someone who is successful doing what you want to do!
(2) Discover what they did to become successful and,
(3) Duplicate the steps they took and the methods they used!
Sounds simple! And it is! *But most people miss out on success because they believe there is a special NEW formula or a big secret out there that they just haven’t found yet and that makes success more mysterious.* If you use the principles, methods and techniques that have helped others to become successful, you will get the same results because Ecclesiastes 1:9 says, “Thus thing that hath been, it is that which is done is that which shall be done; and *there is no new thing under the sun.”* That means if you do the little things you already know about success, you will succeed. *If you can practice, “The inspirational 3Ds” (DETERMINATION, DILIGENCE, and DISCIPLINE), and watch out for, “The dangerous 3Fs” (FEMALES, FINANCES and FAME), you will succeed. There is no new success formula on earth. All successful men/women used the 3Ds. Most failures were pulled down through the 3Fs.*
Check what made Abraham to succeed and you will succeed! Check out other success stories in an outside the Bible. That is the reason why I will soon start a series on *55 SECRETS OF UNCOMMON SUCCESS – THE STORY BEHIND THE GLORY* on Sundays, 8am at the MANNA MOUNTAIN OGUDU-ORIOKE Lagos! LEKKI Mountain will always be connected, 8am! Get your notes and pen ready! It will be awesome and unforgettable! *Starting this week,* I will be picking a success story in the Bible and modern day life and tapping into their secrets!
That was the simple formula of the Greeks and that was the business secrets of Joshua (he was connected to Moses and used the success principles of Moses). Never forget: *SUCCESS IS SIMPLE! IT CAN BE DUPLICATED AND THERE IS NO NEW FORMULA FOR SUCCESS!* Do the simple things you know and watch your story change! See pages 88/89 for business men and women today! Thank God you made the first quarter!
*NEXT EDITION OF ODM IS OUT AND IT’S VERY POWERFUL! THERE IS A DIVINE WORD INSIDE FOR YOU! GET YOUR COPY AND GET FOR OTHERS TOO! REMEMBER: GOD WILL MAKE HAPPEN FOR YOU, WHAT YOU MAKE HAPPEN FOR OTHERS!*
*PRAYER POINTS: Take Song 3: My Faith Looks Up To Thee…*
1. Worship God and pray about today’s message as led now.
2. Ask the Lord to make you an outstanding success story.
3. *Pray about the first three days of APRIL! See page 105 of WAH – 14.*

*Song 3: My Faith Looks Up To Thee*
1. My faith looks up to Thee
Thou Lamb of Calvary, Saviour divine;
Now hear me while I pray;
Take all my guilt away;
Oh, let me from this day
Be wholly Thine.
2. May Thy rich grace impart
Strength to my fainting heart,
My zeal inspire;
As Thou hast died for me
Oh, may my love to Thee
Pure, warm, and changeless be
A living fire.
3. While life’s dark maze I tread,
And griefs around me spread,
Be Thou my guide;
Bid darkness turn to day,
Wipe sorrow’s tears away,
Nor let me ever stray
From Thee aside.
4. All thru life’s transient dream,
Until death’s sullen stream
Shall o’er me roll,
Blest Saviour, with Thy love,
Fear and distrust remove;
Make me Thy grace to prove
Transform my soul.
