The art of living a fulfilled life

God wants you to succeed and live fulfilled a fulfilled—that's part of His plan! Here are five practical, powerful steps to success and be fulfilled God's way.
Live free from shame and guilt. Romans 8:1 says there is no condemnation or guilt for those who are in Jesus. God himself declares that He will wipe away our transgressions and not remember our sins anymore! (Isaiah 43:25). Grace—unearned favor—is a gift from God. Forgive yourself for past mistakes and forget the things that create shame in you. God does!


Live free from judgmentalism. If we judge others—their children, their marriages, or how they live—that judgment will come back to us (Romans 14:4). When we condemn and criticize others, we invite the same thing to come into our own lives. If someone falls in sin, we are supposed to gently and humbly help that person back onto the right path, being careful not to make the same mistake (Galatians 6:1).


Live free from self-centeredness. The Bible says we are to live not to please ourselves, but to please God (1 Thessalonians 4:1). I believe when people are tempted to kill themselves, it is really because they need to experience a spiritual death, dying to their own wants and needs (Galatians 2:20). When we center our lives on loving Jesus and serving others, then we will find true purpose and fulfillment (Galatians 5:13).


Live free from fear. God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). Years ago, I was on an airplane flying through a violent storm. I read Psalm 91 aloud and it brought peace to my heart and to those around me. Fear is a lack of trust. When I begin to get afraid, I envision myself sitting in God's strong hands. Meditate on God's Word and trust Him to take care of you.


Live full of faith by being full of God's Word. Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God (Romans 10:17). To pray power into a situation, pray the Word. Resist talking unbelief. Thinking faith thoughts and speaking faith words will lead your heart out of defeat and into victory. Remember: God is bigger than any problem or limitation you will ever have.


You can succeed! Trust God, yield to the Holy Spirit, pray in faith and allow God's Word to strengthen you and renew your mind, confident that God is faithful to complete the work He has begun in you (Philippians 1:6).
