IT IS NOT BY STRENGTH

1 Samuel 2:9 He will guard the feet of his faithful servants, but the wicked will be silenced in the place of darkness. "It is not by strength that one prevails; (NIV)

If what is required to be a success is mental, physical, financial or political strength then most of the people who failed would have succeeded. But it takes much more than any earthly or natural strength to succeed. 

Our theme scripture says it is not by strength that one prevails. Your natural strength would fail you. Your political, academical, mental and financial strength would fail you. 
Have you ever said "I have done enough to be a success yet nothing is working." Stop doing what you think is enough, and start leaning on what He has done that is enough.

One of the main reasons people fail is their trust in their own ability. Let us read Psalms 20:7-8, Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God. They are brought to their knees and fall, but we rise up and stand firm.

Where actually is your trust? Your sincere answer to this question will determine whether you will succeed or fail.
The Bible says "it is not by strength that one prevails." My dear Brothers and Sisters it is not by strength that one succeed in life. If all you got is your strength then failure is inevitable. There are people who put in more effort than you did yet they failed. There are those who put in less effort than you did yet they succeeded. 

What's the difference? He guards the feet of his faithful servants.
1 Samuel 2:9 He will guard the feet of his faithful servants,... "It is not by strength that one prevails;

CONFESSION

Precious Holy Spirit I recognize and acknowledge that I cannot succeed without you. By my strength I cannot prevail. I rely on your strength, wisdom and knowledge. Some trust in chariots and some in horses but my trust is in your Name Lord. Hallelujah!
