“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.” James 1:17 NKJV
Success is a good gift and it is a good thing. There is proof in the bible that God delights in giving good things to His people.
God does not tempt people with evil. Success is good, sound health, promotion, breakthrough, etc. are all good gifts from God.
If you are a parent, you would not desire failure for your child. You would not even desire average, you would want him/her to top his class at all times. Nothing but his/her best would satisfy you. If you wish success for your child, how much more does God wish us the best in life? He is ready to lavish these gifts on us.
“If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!” Matthew 7:11 NKJV
Your father gives good things to them that ask Him!
Shalom!
