Topic — Never Too Young, Never Too Old To Succeed [Sunday, October 1, 2017]
(Joshua 14:6-15)
Welcome to today’s devotional encounter! Though 2017 may be ending and Satan is firing the arrow of PANIC over your soul concerning certain unanswered prayers and the irreversible fact that you are growing older daily, note this: You are never too old or too young to achieve your success story.
People have achieved great success in life at different points in life;some did so when they were young, while others did so when they were old. Some others succeeded against all odds of life.
Here is a list of individuals who achieved success at different ages(old and young) and under different circumstances.

You can see from all the people mentioned here that some achieved greatness at a tender age while others did so in the middle age and yet others in old age.
