NEVER ACCEPT DEFEAT. – Daily Devotional

SCRIPTURAL TEXT:
Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.
Joshua 1:9.

The deplorable conditions of many today are traceable to a mindset that gives up easily. Show me a great person and I will show you a man who has mastered the art of keeping their thoughts and eyes on the goal rather than the negative things life presents.

Everyone gets faced with challenges at one point or the other in their lives but some give up while others persist. People who will prosper, never accept defeat and they never give up. They know that there is always a way out of every predicament. This mentality is what eventually makes them successful.

There is always a way out but when you give up or faint in your heart; the way becomes closed to you. Train your mind never to accept any form of defeat, rather train your mind to deliberately search for solutions. You must understand that there is no problem without a solution and if you will engage your mind long enough you will find a solution.
