This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
You choose your attitude every morning when you get out of bed!
It is God’s will for you to prosper, but you must hear God’s word and obey it before success can be yours. That’s what our text says today:
This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success. Joshua 1:8
Success is not accidental; it is a byproduct of your attitude. Has anyone ever told you that you have a bad attitude? People fling that phrase around today like salt and pepper. “You’ve got a bad attitude.” So what does that mean? It means you’re too critical. It means you’re too sarcastic…too arrogant…too mean…and too inflexible.
If you have a bad attitude, it means that you generally choose to disagree. You whine and pout when you can’t get your way. You like to live with a chip on your shoulder. You can’t keep friends. You can’t keep a job. You can’t keep a wife or a husband, because you are a joyless toad.
Who is responsible for your attitude? You are. We try to blame our attitude on our husband or wife. We blame our attitude on the weather, or the car we’re driving. We blame our attitude on the IRS or PMS—we blame it on something, anything, except ourselves.
You attitude is a choice, not a chance. Do you wake up in the morning saying, “Good morning, Lord!” or, “Good Lord, it's morning!” There’s a difference in those two!
