Have you heard the expression, “Success is a fickle mistress”? We all know the sad stories of individuals who at one moment are on top of the world, while the next moment the world is on top of them. Whether it’s a sports hero, a music superstar, or a business icon, it seems that one day the world is their oyster, and the next day they’re the ones being harvested.
We will meet some kings tonight who experienced seemingly great success. It appeared that everything was going their way. But is outward success always a sign of God’s blessing? I think we know the answer to that. We can learn tonight that whether we are in a place of plenty or want, true success is defined not by our fleeting circumstance, but by our eternal relationship to God.
