How to make successful life decisions

Audio By Vocalize

Life is largely made up of choices and success is a matter of making wise decisions. Australian preacher Frank William Boreham says: "We make our decisions and then our decisions make us." Every decision involves an element or degree of risk. Those who take the risk accomplish a lot in life. You can reduce the risk involved by making the right decisions.

From the book of Proverbs, we get some principles that we can inculcate in making successful decisions. The first is inspiration - pray for God's guidance. Get God's perspective and do not depend on your wisdom. "A man is foolish to trust himself. But those who use God's wisdom are safe" (Proverbs 28:26). "For the Lord gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding" (Proverbs 2:6).
