1. Introduction
Everything of high value that God created is deeply secured and there are established procedures to access them. Many of them deeply rooted in the soil. Anyone who access them become very successful in life
2. Why did God Choose Joshua
Joshua was deeply rooted in the Lord and a good assistant to Moses.
- He was among the 12 chosen by Moses to go and spy the promised land. Only Joshua and Caleb from the 12 believed that God would help them conquer the land. Numbers 13:1-33.
- The other 10 spies saw themselves as weak, inferior, and worst still saw God to be too weak to help them conquer the land. So, they gave up.
- Just like the 12 were sent out to spy the promised land, I believe that God sent you to Nigeria a land flowing of crude oil, precious stones (diamond, gold etc), farm produce, fishes, birds, and animal.
- Do you see Nigeria like the 10 saw the promised land? Hunger, poverty, unemployment, inflation, insecurity etc.
- Are there Calebs and Joshuas of Nigeria?
- What do you see in your business, place of work, school etc.
3. Overcoming the storms of life
Life is full of storms which sweep away the shallow but can not harm the deeply rooted. Storms of life include those in marriages, careers, businesses, education, health, safety etc.
Anyone deeply rooted in what they do will surely overcome any storm.
4. Crude Oil is deeply rooted in the soil.
Crude oil is deeply rooted in the soil either onshore or offshore. Most of the world’s petroleum is trapped between 500 and 25,000 feet (152 and 7,620 meters) under dirt and rock.

Most oil is drilled in the sea which involves taking very high risks to life, expertise, courage etc.
I invite you to watch a video of an offshore oil well.

5. Conclusion
The more you are deeply rooted in whatever you do, the more your success is guaranteed.
God bless you
