OUR DAILY MANNA DEVOTIONAL*???
_A DAILY DEVOTIONAL BOOKLET FOR CHAMPIONS_
*DATE: TUESDAY 10TH MARCH, 2020*?
*TOPIC: FAILURE BREEDS SUCCESS! - Part 2*?
*BASIC SCRIPTURE: 1KINGS 18:35-46*?
Welcome to today’s encounter once again with the Holy Ghost. Yesterday we talked about failure as the womb that caries the pregnancy of success. We shall discuss that again today. Someone wrote this, *“It seems that failure tends to be more public than success, or at least that is what we perceive it to be. We fear failure, we try to avoid it, and we question ourselves every time we have unconventional ideas.
But the simple truth is, no great success was ever achieved without failure. It may be one epic failure, or a series of failures such as Edison’s 10,000 attempts to create a light bulb, or Dyson’s 5,126 attempts to invent a bag-less vacuum cleaner.
But whether we like it or not, failure is a necessary stepping-stone to achieving our dreams.”* In 1978, Jones Dyson got an idea for inventing new vacuum cleaning technology. For 5 long years, he made 5,127 prototypes, and finally got a working model. today, Dyson’s cord-free vacuum cleaners are capable of capturing 99.97% of dust as small as 0.3 microns and expel cleaner air.
Many people know Henry Ford because of the Ford Motor Company. However, what they don’t know is that Ford failed two times which resulted in bankruptcies before he became successful. In 1899, at the age of 36, Ford formed his first company, The Detroit Automobile Company, with backing from a lumber baron, William Murphy. That company went bankrupt!
He made a 2nd attempt in 1901, when he formmed Henry Ford Company. That also failed and it was re-named, The Cadillac Automobile Company after he gave up his shares in it. His 3rd attempt was what hit the nail on the head. *Ford was not a stranger to failure but he didn’t just give up!*
Thomas Edison made over 10,000 attempts while trying to invent a commercially viable electric bulb, but he didn’t give up. When asked by a newspaper reporter if he felt like a failure after having gone through so many thousands of failed attempts, Edison simply stated, “Why would I feel like a failure? And why would I ever give up? I now know *definitely over 9,000 ways an electric light bulb will not work.* Success is almost in my grasp.” And at last he succeeded!
In today’s scripture, Elijah attempted to bring back rain upon the earth after some three and a half years of drought. As he continued to pray, it looked like the heavens won’t let the rain come down. Nevertheless, he didn’t give up. He commanded his servant to go back seven times again to look out for the sign of success.
It was at the 7m attempt that a little sign of success in the form of “a little cloud out of the sea like a man’s hand was seen. As C.S. Lewis said, *“Failures are finger posts on the road to achievement. Failure must not be regarded as absence of success.
Its just a road map to success".* As you journey through 2020, never give up! Hear EloIse Ristad, an anonymous writer who penned this down, “Failure is not the opposite of success, It’s part of success.” Did you get that? Child of God, no matter how all your past years have been, get up and try again! You are not a failure or a DELAY-VICTIM, but a miracle that is about to blossom. I hear the sound of your dancing steps because the God of Elijah has your back! Pray now.
*PRAYER POINTS:* Take Song 2: My Faith Looks Up...??

*Song 2: My Faith Looks Up To Thee...*?
1. My faith looks up to Thee,
Thou Lamb of Calvary,
Savior 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 Savior, with Thy love,
Fear and distrust remove;
Make me Thy grace to prove
Transform my soul
