Wisdom: 7 Laws You Must Honor to Have Uncommon Success .I spent two hours reading 7 Laws You Must Honor to Have Uncommon Success, by Mike Murdock. I figured this 61-page self-help book that I first learned about from Inspiration Ministries would assist me and my Builder comrades in our quests. I liked it a lot! It was short, sweet and several reminders and truths. Minus any preconceived notions about televangelists and Christianity, I urge you to take a look at Murdock’s 7 Laws, which I’ve summarized below. This post is filled with wisdom from the book, most of which is rooted in scripture. This is one Sunday read that made my wheels turn with new ideas. Click here to get your copy. Have you read The 7 Laws? What were your thoughts?
1. The Law of Difference – Your Difference Decides Your Importance.
Remember This: Something within you cannot be found in another. Your similarity creates your comfort. Your difference creates your rewards. If you do not know your distinctive Difference, you will never discern what others need from you.
2. The Law of the Mind – Every Life Battle is a Mind Battle.
Remember This: If you win in your Mind, you will win in life. If you lose in your Mind, you will lose in life. Your mind needs 3 things:
Focus, because it has two parts, memory and imagination. Your memory replays the past; your imagination preplays your future. Instruction, because your Mind is a harness searching for information to verify your opinion or to escape present pain. Your mind is on the prowl for knowledge and instructions. (i.e. The 7 Laws You Must Follow… The 10 Steps to a Happy Life, etc. etc.) A Hero, your mind needs a Champion that excites you, an example. Kill the snakes in your garden and pull the weeds. Your self-portrait determines your self conduct. Something you need may be hidden in someone you do not enjoy.
3. The Law of Recognition – Anything you Fail to Recognize Will Exit Your Life.
This is one of the most powerful laws. We hear it all the time… show people you appreciate them. Recognize your mentors, protege’s and unfound treasures.
Remember This: Something you are not seeing is costing you. Anything you fail to recognize will exit your life. Parasites want what is in your hand; proteges want what is in your heart. Be humble! Humility is not a personality trait. Humility is recognition of what you do not have and it causes you to search. The proof of humility is the willingness to ask questions.
4. The Law of Two – One cannot multiply. Adam could not multiply until Eve entered his life.
I found this particular note to be a GREAT reminder: Demons do not multiply or have a bloodline. Demons are not omnipresent. Demons are assigned geographically. (This is deep).
Two are better than one.. the threefold cord is not easily broken,” Ecclesiastes 4:9, 12)
Remember This: You are four people away from any human on earth. When God wants to Bless You, He brings a person into your life.
5. The Law of Place – Places Matter. God made places before he made people. Never stay where God has not assigned you. Your weaknesses will flourish, you strength will die, you will never be honored for your Difference when you are in the wrong place.
As Murdock writes, “When you receive a divine instruction, you are often sent to a specific place. (See, 1 Kings 17:9)
Remember This: Everything you want is… somewhere. Go where you are celebrated instead of where you are tolerated. Battle is the seed for territorial order and possession. The timing of warfare reveals the importance of an approaching event. Giants are not signs of your exit from “Egypt;” Giants are proofs of your entry into “Canaan.” Your assignment is always The Problem God has assigned you to solve for others.
6. The Law of Honor – Honor is the willingness to reward someone for their difference. Honor is your personal choice to celebrate the distinctive Difference in another. Honor i PDL
