The Law of habits says that through repetition, an act be-comes fixed! Horace Mann did write that: Habit is a cable; we weave a thread of it every day and at last, we cannot break it. It was John Jacob Astor who said: Wealth is largely a result of habit, while Publius Syrus proclaimed that, Powerful indeed is the empire of habit. What are the things you do daily on a regular basis? They form your habits. God wants to enter into your daily routine and break off any habit that will delay or destroy your bright destiny! For example in 1995, the United Nation announced a smoking ban in its headquarters at New York, but do you know that the issue is catching fire? already. Russian and Costa Rice diplomats are vehemently leading other diplomats to protest and quash the smoking ban! The, NO SMOKING signs are being removed from some of the floors of the United Nation headquarters in New York! Oh habits! No wonder, Samuel Johnson did say: The chains of habits are too weak to be felt, until they are too strong to be broken. Good habits such as midnight battle prayers, early morning personal/family devotion, no Bible, no breakfast philosophy?, talking less, jotting down your pastor's messages, never missing your local church services, tithing, giving to the needy, always declaring your love to your spouse, never allowing a second of fear, discouragement or gloom in your heart, etc, should be developed by you strongly. Drop the habits of skipping prayer/Bible study times, procrastination, worrying, complaining, easy anger, always seeing gloom and doom, skipping church services, etc! Sitting on the church pew without being a worker for God is a dangerous habit. Excessive eating, secret alcoholism, or smoking is deadly habits. Lay them off today! It was the secret habit of stealing money that destroyed Judas's destiny! Success in life is dependent largely on your daily routine! Man is a bundle of habits and habit is your 2nd nature, which sometimes is so powerful as to exterminate the first. Form the habit of thinking and talking of power, purity, prosperity, abundance, and very soon material evidence of these will manifest! Never forget: The secret of your success is hidden in your daily routine! In fact, your life purpose and your habits are eternally connected! Your habit can be a mountain - (a shame) or a mover of your destiny! The choice yours! Shalom!
