Outstanding success is of God! Mediocrity is not righteousness. No ordinary son is a pride of his father. A father only rejoices over his outstanding children, not the failures. You can't resemble God as a failure. He is the Most High so how can you remain the lowest and say you are His son? Success is your birthright! If you are born again, it is your redemptive right, your destiny in God. Jesus said, "Ye are the salt of the earth." You, as a child of God, are to give taste to the earth; you are to preserve it. He also said, "Ye are the light of the world." By this He means you are a pacesetter. The people of the world should learn how to get things done by looking at you and how you get things done. Again, Jesus said, you are a city set upon the hill, that cannot be hid. You are not in the valley, but at the top of the mountain.
