The following is an interesting article which I came across and I hope it will be an encouragement to all of us....be like a Joshua.
Wishing each and everyone of you including your family and loved ones, a blessed Chinese New Year. May the Lord continue to turn his face and shine upon you daily.

True Success
Success, by the world’s standards, is measured by wealth. The more money you have, the more successful you are. But is this true success?
I believe that true success is determined by the Creator, not the created. In other words, God made us and therefore He determines what makes us successful or not. His owners’ manual for success is the Bible and when we live by it, we are successful.
Joshua 1:7 Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go.
There are many who will gain the world but lose their soul. They will have money but no peace. They will have fame but no friends. They will be ‘successful’ but their lives will have been a waste.
Is there anything wrong with having money? Not at all but a couple things are important to note. Having money does not make anyone better than someone with no money. Money is not the measuring rod of success; obedience to God’s Word is.
Do you want to be successful in life? Live by God’s Word.
