Receive keys of wisdom to succeed

The brevity of Mike Murdock’s style reveals the power of his keys of wisdom. Readers are abruptly exposed to concepts without introduction. Murdock communicates directly, striking with a confrontational tone when he declares, “When you want something you’ve never had, you have to do something you’ve never done.”

Each key is shared within a separate concise statement. The Mikes keys are informative and self-explanatory. This is seen in his comment, “Champions are willing to do things they hate to create something they love.”

Although the statements are portions of individual wisdom, Murdock has arranged them in an orderly system, grouping similar concepts. While conveying the broader concept of future focus, Mike shares relevant clues to wisdom: “God never consults your past to determine your future.” & “Men decide their habits … their habits decide their future.”

The underlying theme of Mike Murdock’s writing points towards the personal responsibility of readers. Affirm: “The seasons of your life will change each time you decide to use your faith.”

In an effort to empower readers, Mike encourages and corrects, stating, “Nothing is as bad as it seems.” “Greatness is not the search for perfection, but the search for fulfillment.” & “God will never advance his instructions beyond his last act of disobedience.” Oh! His words are direct, but true and useful.

Readers will leave with greater wisdom
