The saddest man on earth and of course the poorest man on earth is a person without a dream.
Poverty in my opinion is a state of the MIND.
Therefore if you don't have a dream in life, then you are really poor mentally.
To be poor in this context has nothing to do with the lack of money but instead the lack of IDEAS & DREAMS.
It doesn't matter how much money you don't have ,but as long as you've got hope on a dream there's always a posibility of gaining the success you're dreaming about.
Bear in mind that dreams comes out of PURPOSE and there's no individual born on earth without a predistined purpose for their lives by God.
And yet the most frustrated people in the world today are those with a dream but hasn't experience the reality of that dream.
It's true that everyone has a dream, had a dream or carrying one in their heart right now.
So am convinced that every human being on earth was born with the ability to dream dreams and also the capacity to fulfilling them.
The few principles we shall be discussing today will ultimately shift your mentality in the positive direction into making that dream a reality.
Recalling as a young baby, a toddler and as a child we constantly were dreaming wild big dreams which I believe it was from God.
Recently I had a chat with my niece and I was amazed by what she told me was her dreams, though her reasons was quite hilarious but the passion she communicated that was so genuine and affective.
She said she wants to become a Space Scientists, for many of us if we could recall our childhood days we dreamt of becoming a Doctor, an Engineer, A Police officer, A Scientist, A Pilot , most of all The President of the World...Funny right😀.Some also thought of feeding and clothing every hungry person's on the street, and possibly give them an accommodation over their heads.
The point is that everybody dreamt dreams when they were young and still dreaming but their dreams is as far as it was when the were young.
And the reason why people's dreams don't come to pass is because they haven't learn how to exercise the principles that are designed in God's creation to fulfill those dreams.
Understand that a PRINCIPLE is different from FACTS
A Principle is a law that's established to create the environment to successfully produce the performance of the promise inside the principle.
To say this another way, a Principle is a fixed law established to guarantee the performance of a product.
This means that every manufacturer builts into his or her product a principle by which they must function, and if you follow those principles the promise of the manufacturer will definitly be experienced.
Therefore every form of success is really based on obedience to Principles.
In order words being successful isn't luck.
Being an effective person in your life isn't that you're lucky or furtunate but rather an interplay between adequate performance and obedience to Principles.
Take for example, every seed has in it the ability and capacity of becoming a tree as long as the Principles that will guarantee the process is obeyed.
This entails that you need to locate the right environment for the seed, dig the soil and bury it and water the seed.
I bet you would not need to pray and fast for the seed to germinate and grow, it will happen spontaneously because the principles built into the seed will take over the seed and transform it into a tree with fruits.
Therefore obedience to principles makes success automatic in nature.
Principles are established to make life simple.
And when principles are unknown, experimentation is inevitable.
Truth is that God wants us to function according to his principles and precepts in order to guarantee our success.
Fulfillment in life according to God's agender for our lives has nothing to do with accumulation of all the material things we pursue daily in life but instead it has to do with becoming exactly what he created us to be.
So I can therefore say that there are so many successful failures in our society today, succeeding in the wrong DIRECTION outside God's plan for their lives.
Though they may apply principles which will lead to their success doesn't mean they have fulfilled their purpose. So accomplishing that which you were born to accomplish is the true success which brings fulfillment in the sight God.
People are failing in life not because of evil but because they have not discovered God's principles for life.
God's principles are embedded in his Word which is our manual for life.
Principles are truth that are permanent but facts are simply the present state of things which often varies.
What am implying is that when reading the Bible do not look for facts and stories that coincide with your situation but instead meditate on God's principles in his Word and act upon them in order to guarantee your success in life.
So once again obedience to God Principles guarantees a predictable outcome and inevitable success.
This brings us to God's principles that will guarantee your SUCCESS and FULFILLMENT in Life.

This is refusing to stop despite the odds.
This means standing against every opposition and obstacles on your way to fulfillment.
This means interpreting a 'No' for answer as 'Wait'.
This simply means you are permitted to quit only after fulfillment.
Persistence is that resilience that doesn't give in or give up on dreams.
●The principles of PRAYER:
Prayer means to commune with the source of the Dreams.
Prayer means common union with the one that gave you the Vision and Purpose for sustenance and provisions.
Prayer simply means consulting with the boss for any necessary adjustments needed.
Prayer revives your reserve when you are tired and drained by the ordeals of life.
Prayer refills your passion for persistence toward fulfillment.
Prayer keeps a Vision on check to guard against misdirection.
To be successful in life, then prayer is inevitable.
The aforementioned and discussed principles are the bases to which a successful life can be built on.
