No one likes failure, and everyone strives to achieve success. Tucked away in James 4 is a suggestion to help us find true success.

Submit to God (James 4:7).

True success comes from the Lord, and finding it requires allowing the Lord in our lives. This means…

• We accept his wisdom and will.
• We trust his power and love for us.
• We follow his teachings.

Nothing will detour Satan faster than a close relationship with the Lord, so if you’re looking for true success, start by submitting to the Lord.
