Text: Joshua 1v8-9; Ephesians 4v27-29.
Due to the failure of the government to elevates the citizens from poverty and hardship, couple with the background, ethnicity and environmental factor and challenge. Many people in our generation have concluded that it is not possible for anybody to have good success. But I will like to tell you that through my experience, observation and the knowledge of God's words, I can assure you that good success is still possible.
What is success:
1. It is the accomplishments of aim.
2. It is the expected outcome intention.
Two kind of success
1. Good success - this is the ability to accomplish your aim through godly and lawful mean.
2. Bad success - This is the accomplishments of aim through evil and unlawful means.

A. Bribery
B. 419 and internet frauds

NOTE: The Bible says that a little that a righteous man has is better than the riches of many wicked.( Psalm 37v16).

Prayers point:
1. In the name of Jesus, I refuses to put my hand in any fraudulent activities.
