Today, I saw a study.
It says nobody wants to be successful anymore.
Not Americans, at least.
America used to celebrate, seek out, and chase success.
Now?
Most seek out, celebrate, and chase…
something else.
Though my definition of success is radically different from that of these researchers ...
Still, what they had to say made me think.
What's success to me? you ask.
Simple.
I go way back to the original mandate:
"And God blessed them. And God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over ..." - Gen 1:28
That divine Mandate has not changed.
And that is my definition of
success.
I look at success not as a modern pursuit of status, but as a fulfillment of original human
purpose.
In John 15 the Lord Jesus refines this by saying, "Apart from me you can do nothing."
Success is being fruitful by staying connected to the Source.
Since we'll be praying into this during the upcoming Sapphire prayer riot, I wanted to give you some food for thought.
And also to salute you, the participant in our prayer programs.
That singular act separates you from those the researchers were talking about.
You not only read my messages but you show commitment year in, year out by actually stepping out in faith to join the prayers.
Yes, you put your money where your mouth is, to quote a popular saying.
Such as the prayers to storm the gates and the momentum rounds that followed.
That's a clear indication you are committed to the goal of pursuing your divine destiny (something that truly pleases God).
To you and all the eagles here, who are committed to the goal of daily pushing ahead both in prayer and action, whether the devil likes it or not...
... to you I say "congratulations."
Please keep it up.
Say this with me:
"I will not be bought off."
"I will not sell out."
"I will not quit... in the name of Jesus"
Most of you reading this have been in this audience for 10+ years.
A subset for 20 years!
That's commitment.
That's consistency.
That's faithfulness.
To you these prayers are like a drug (in a good way).
And it’s also intoxicating serving you, and you’re just a joy to deal with.
Our Forum says it all:
Over 5 Million
conversations since we opened on this current platform in 2015.
Eagles are engaged whenever the forum is
open...
Sharing, caring, supporting and strengthening one another.
May the name of the LORD be praised forever.
Just take a look at the kind of messages they send when they don't see my (almost) daily missives:
==
"I feel empty without the daily emails. Please advice if I am missing out on another prayer riot." - Lucy U
"I am not sure what happened but l no longer receive any mail from you since August... I really need to receive prayer material from you. Its my lifeline for over a decade now." - Tecclar T
"I have not received any email from you in two weeks.This is not normal. Could i have u subscribed by mistake? I would like to continue getting your emails
and prayers." - Adeline K
===
In an era where your inbox is flooded with AI-generated slop and so many people are fed up with junk and spam emails...
I get tons of emails like the ones above begging for MORE.
This is why I say you, our Eagles, are a just a joy to deal with.
In the upcoming prayers, a few surprises awaits.
The 7 Furious Prayers for March is your "GO Signal."

Mark 10:27
But Jesus looked at them and said, “With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible.”
