A successful life means having mastery over our own inner being.
Dr. Roberto Miranda(Audio: Spanish)
SUMMARY:
The concept of a successful life is much broader than just material success and prosperity. It includes personal growth, self-control, and mastery over one's inner being. The Christian life is a process of personal emancipation, freedom from slavery, and liberation from limitations and forces that control us. The Church is a presence that allows people to see that there is something different and that a new life is possible. The brain can be reconfigured and transformed through this process of continuous liberation. Mastery over one's spirit is more powerful than conquering a city or a nation. The person who gains control of their inner being becomes a true giant, a person of power, wisdom, grace, love, forgiveness, generosity, and self-assurance. They know that God is their provider, helper, and representative, and that their worth comes from Him.
The Christian journey is a project of personal conquest and liberation to acquire qualities of Christ and character of the Kingdom of God. It is important to identify and conquer areas of our lives that need to be reconfigured and reconformed to the image of Christ Jesus. We must be honest with ourselves and not project blame onto others. Christianity is not a religion for slaves, but for powerful beings who can gain dominion over the areas of our lives that have enslaved us. We must ask the Holy Spirit for introspection and self-knowledge to continually enlighten us and show us what areas of our lives need to be addressed. The Christian project is a perpetual project of personal liberation and a search for personal emancipation and liberation from everything that oppresses us and makes us less than what God wants us to be.
The Christian life is a perpetual process of personal liberation and self-deliverance in the Power of the Holy Spirit. It is a journey towards becoming more like Christ and freeing ourselves from all the forces that enslave and deform us. We must be involved in a process of self-emancipation until the last day of our lives. We must identify and reject the things in our lives that are contrary to the Word of the Lord. The formation of Christian character is not preached enough in the Church, and it is the true frontier of the Christian life. The goal is to incorporate into us the values that will set us free to be what Christ wants us to be. We must let the character of Jesus and the fruit of the Spirit be formed within us.
The speaker acknowledges their faults and weaknesses but recognizes that God loves them and calls them to be more like Christ. They pray for freedom and declare God's peace over their fellow believers. They thank God for His Word and the hope it brings. They bless their brothers and sisters and end with a declaration of freedom in Christ.We have talked about how to live a successful life. As you know, for me the word "successful" is much more than that superficial interpretation that we often give to the word "prosperity" as well.
Many times when people hear about success in life they think of material success, they think of money, they think of influence, they think rather of things that are merely human, material, social and unfortunately, as I have said so many times, there are Pastors who lend themselves a lot. Sometimes that easy interpretation of what prosperity is and we believe that God is simply a cash machine, a spiritual ATM that is always there giving us money and that this is our right.
