God Delights in me, everyday of my life.

He has favor upon me. He has given me the blessing of being able to go to Italy! :D. Honestly I am sure he has given it to me. So many things are asking me to doubt the fact that God is certain and stable and that I and my weakness affects His decision and goodness upon my life. But this i know, no matter what i do, God knows my heart, and that He is a good God that always always give us the BEST even in our weakness that we yet to know to conquer.

"But this circumstance is exactly the precondition that God will use to make His plans for you to be carried out. If you have everything you need to accomplish your task, you won’t need faith. And without faith, you will never achieve success. God creates obstacles to teach you to trust Him. Faith is something that will make it possible for you to fulfill your calling, your destiny. It is the guarantee of your future success. Praise the Lord for your lacking something important. It is the beginning of your faith in the things you cannot yet see with your physical eyes. The apostle James wrote, "Faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. (James 2:17). So if you believe your plans will succeed, that God has planted a seed of greatness in you, don’t hesitate, but act on your faith.

The important thing is that you keep moving toward your goal and your faith will help you achieve this. We will see how this works in the next principle for success. 

Proclaim by faith things that you expect to have in your life. Speak about your goals and plans as if they already have been realized. Then promise God that you will do your best to attain your goal. Give thanks to God by faith, from the bottom of your heart, for planting a seed of greatness in you." - Pastor Sunday Adelaja, principle of continual success.
 ----------------------------------
God gave you life for a purpose. You have a particular purpose to fulfill, and you must understand what this purpose is and fulfil that particular purpose. So if God has created you, then there are specific tasks that He has purposed for you to accomplish, tasks which only you and nobody else can fulfill.

You may not know what this purpose is yet, but this doesn’t mean that it doesn’t exist.
...

Ignorance is darkness. You know that the devil, who is the prince of darkness, wants people to be kept in ignorance, because that gives him the possibility of ruling over them. He will always rule over you in those areas of life where things are still not fully clear to you.

But as for those who have come to God, their lives have changed. The knowledge of the Word of God has made them free. The light of God’s truth has dispersed their darkness and joy has come into their lives. Depression and feelings of hopelessness have all been left behind in the past. By the stripes of Jesus they have been healed, and so they don’t allow the devil to oppress them anymore through sickness. They know that the joy of the Lord is their strength and their fortress. They are no longer afraid of people, because they know that it is the devil who is trying to lure them into a net of fear. God, however, has not given them a "a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind" (2 Timothy 1:7).

But how can a person find out what is his purpose and calling is in life? Don’t just look at the different possibilities you have and try to work things out for yourself. If you want to know what your purpose and calling is, then go to God and ask Him for what purpose He created you, ask Him what that calling is that He has ordained for your life. God brought you into the church and you came to your Creator, so you are already right there at the source of all knowledge. God is your Creator and He’s the only one who knows what your purpose and calling is in life.

But before God can reveal things to you and open up that calling to you, you will have to go through a time of waiting and preparation, during which the principle of being faithful in "what is least" starts to operate.
