Kris' 7 Keys to Successful Living

I love these. What a great guide to live by!
This list is from Kris Vallotton, Senior Associate Pastor at Bethel Church - Our favorite teacher at Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry!

1-Put God 1st in your life and have no 2nd, so that your entire life is walked out in a way that honors the King. 

2- Keep a list of the works of God in your life and meditate on what He has done...not what He has yet to do.

3- Don't take yourself too seriously. When you do something stupid laugh at yourself and tell others so they can laugh too...be human. If you sin, repent honestly and quickly then forgive yourself! Get over it!!! Don't live in regret...it sucks and it's an insult to the Cross.

4- Remember that there is always enough time in the day to do everything Jesus has called you to do. So remind yourself that you are not the Savior of the world. Living to meet the expectations of people instead of God will kill you. It is IMPOSSIBLE to please EVERYONE!

5- Keep short accounts with people...forgive them quickly. Unforgiveness invites every kind of evil into your life. People will fail you at times. Give up punishing them. It's not worth the grief!

6- Live with a servant's heart and a king's/queen's mind. Be humble...there is no job beneath you. Yet carry yourself as royalty...manage your inner world nobly. You are a son/daughter of the King! Think like it!!!

7- Be ridiculously generous...it always comes back to you. Your lineage gives you unlimited resources.
