It is the value you place on a thing that determines what you get from it. Success attends to a person who knows when to stop something to do another thing; that knows what to do first; next, and what not to do at all.
There has never been any unserious person that received anything from God. The Spirit connection is the greatest connection of all connections. Joseph's star came to limelight by the Spirit connection. As a Christian you cannot emerge a star or reach your full potentials in your field unless you connect to the Holy Spirit.
One of the reasons why the Holy Spirit is given to us is to empower us to make it in life. The Holy Spirit has been given to us so that things will not be stagnated. You cannot sell something by the Spirit connection and not sell. Joseph stood out of the men of his days by the Spirit connection, the Spirit moved him from the prison to the palace. In Genesis 40:38, King Pharaoh witness about Joseph,
"...can we find such a one as this is, a man in whom the Spirit of God is...".
The same Spirit of God moved David from the backside of the desert to become a front liner when he was anointed by Prophet Samuel. In 1 Samuel 16:13, scripture says,
"Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren; and the Spirit of the LORD came upon David from that day forward".
So David rose up, and went to Ramah. He killed Goliath and later became king. From the day David was anointed he went forward. He fought the highest number of battles in the scripture and he didn't lost any. If God does not help you, men cannot help you. Trust the Spirit connection more than men's connection. The golden destiny seen by Zachariah in Zach. 4:1-6 can only happen by the Spirit connection.
"...not by might, nor by power but by my Spirit , saith the LORD of hosts".
Every Christian has a golden destiny; but it can only be realized by the Holy Spirit. Your visions, your plans will be accomplished much faster by the Spirit connection. There is no business in which there are no stars. Every Christian is supposed to be a star in his or her chosen career or line of business. As a Christian you are a star destined to shine, but this will be by the anointing - Spirit connection. It is the Spirit connection that makes destinies to be fulfilled.
Daniel on a strange land emerged as a great star even by the Spirit connection. In Daniel 5:11, scripture says of him
"There is a man in thy kingdom, in whom is the Spirit of the Holy god's; and in the days of thy father, light and understanding and wisdom, like the wisdom of the gods, was found in him; whom the King Nebuchadnezzar thy father, the king, I say, thy father, made master of the magicians, astrologers, Chaldeans, and soothsayers".
He was cast into the lion's den, the lions could not touch him. When you are spiritually connected, God will go before you and make all the crooked paths straight, and you will be preferred. The Spirit of God's word coming upon you is what gets the work done; the Spirit connection is what makes the difference. You cannot do anything against the truth, except for the truth. Scripture says
"Except the Lord build the house, they labor in vain that buildeth it..." - Psalm 127:1.
Many are worker-ho-licks, working hard, yet living hard life, because they don't have the Spirit connection. It is not working hard but working smart that matters. Working smart is by the Spirit's connection. When you have the Spirit connection, earthly connection will be very cheap.
The Spirit connection, connects you into two main virtues; wisdom and power (Isaiah 11:2). Whatever you get by power, you need wisdom to sustain and maintain it. No wonder Samson, even though he had power, but because he lacked wisdom, he could not sustain the power, so he crashed with it. Scripture in Daniel 12:3 says
"And they that be wise shall shine...".
Since wisdom comes by the Spirit connection, it takes the Spirit connection to shine. Every vision, plan, marriage, family, destiny etc that does have this Spirit connection is a crash going somewhere to happen. Wisdom will make more money for you, it will teach you how to spend it well and sustain it for you.
How Do You Sustain The Flow of The Spirit of Wisdom?
Scripture in Proverbs 26:20 says,
"where no wood is, there the fire goeth out...".
The wood is the sustainer of fire and this wood is the word of God. So you sustain the flow of the Spirit of wisdom with the word of God. The more insight you gain from God's word, the wiser you become. Remember, success in any endeavor of life attends faster to the man with the Spirit connection.
Shalom!
