DON’T BE A CASUALTY OF BLIND FAITH

Having faith is putting one's confidence and trust in a higher power or principle, frequently without having to see or comprehend everything in detail. Having faith frequently entails holding onto beliefs that are difficult to prove or physically observable. Faith without wisdom and knowledge is dangerous! It may lead to fatality! What most of us do is to temp God and we call it blind faith. Understand that, Faith is activated in your favour over things you have no power or control over. Wisdom is defined as the correct application of knowledge. Right! Let’s look at how faith without wisdom can lead to fatality. It is common knowledge that a car without good tires or break pads is risky to drive in a journey. Now, wisdom demands that you check and change the tyres if they are worn out or the brake pads if they are not good before embarking on the journey. Those actions are within your control! You don’t expect God to do it for you. Now, if you say because I have faith in God for ...

CHOOSE INFLUENCE OVER AFFLUENCE

In our various walks of life, we meet different people with different orientations and perspectives. Sometimes, those we think has all it takes to help us because of their affluence are those who fails us most. Nobody can help you except God lay it in their hearts. If God does not help your helper, he/she cannot help you! The truth is, the one you are looking up to for help also needs help. Everybody in this world in one way or the other needs help, no matter how high you have attained. We should always pray to God to link us with the RIGHT person at the right time. Know that, in this world; - Some people are destiny connectors, while some are destiny disconnectors. - Some people are dream helpers, while some are dream killers. - Some people are vision promoters, while some are vision blindfolders. - Some people are door openers, while some are door closers. - Some people are burden bearers, while some are burden multipliers. - Some people carries affective personality, while some carr...

THERE IS PROTECTION IN CORRECTION

According to an adage, a child that despises elders' correction is threading the part of destruction. Everybody in life, no matter the age, education, wealth and intellectual background, is prone to committing errors or mistakes. This makes us human. Correction is one of the means to salvage us from the damage that may result from our errors or mistakes, by a corrector, who may likely be a friend or relative, older, wiser, or more experienced than us in life. It is also human nature to despise correction, due to pride, educational status, political position, and arrogance of ignorance, believing you are superior to the corrector. Correction is a method of protection from immediate or future pain and consequences of wrong actions we take, in marriage, relationships, career, ministry, finance, education, association, etc. The Holy Bible emphasizes the importance of receiving and giving correction, as it views it as a path to wisdom, understanding, and spiritual growth, while it also ...

THE PAIN OF COMPARISON

One Of The Things I Haven't Done In The Journey Of My Life So Far Is To ENGAGE IN UNGODLY COMPARISONS. I Do Not Compare Myself With Anybody, Based On Their Level Of Achievement Or Success In Any Area Of Life. As A Christian, I Believe God Created Us With Divinely Programmed Time And Seasons To Achieve Some Things In Life. While It Is Good To Appreciate And Commend The Success Of Others, It Is Dangerous And Unwise To Compare Yourself With Others. The Bible Says Those Who Compare Themselves With Others Are Not Wise." 2 Corinthians 10:12 Stop Comparing Your Life And Success With Others. You Are Unique And A Special Project In The Hands Of God. It Pays To Wait For Your Landmark Manifestation And Glorious Revelation. The Fact That Your Age Mates, Classmates, Or Coursemates Achieved Certain Things Before You Doesn’t Stop You From Achieving More Than Them When Your Appointed Time Comes. Understand That There Is No Latecomer In The Game Of Success. Time Is ONLY The Differentiator! Whe...

THE TENSION OF ATTENTION

Giving Attention To Your Partners In A Relationship, Friendship, Business, Or Ministry Is Key For Intimacy, Understanding, And Healthy Communication. It Is Good To Always Pay Adequate Attention To Certain Issues In Life. However, Giving Too Much Attention To The Wrong Person Or Things Can Lead To Unnecessary Tension, Thereby, Making You Lose Focus To Take Care Of Yourself. Giving Attention To The Wrong Person Can Result In A Waste Of Time, And Resources, Or Emotional Hurt. It Is Good To Give Attention To Others But Give Yourself Attention First. Love Yourself More Than Others Love You. Self-Love Is Not A Sign. The Holy Bible Says We Should Love Our Neighbors As Ourselves, Not More Than Ourselves (Matthew 22:39). It's Even Sad That Sometimes, We Give Our Whole Attention To The Wrong Person, Who Does Not Even Value Us As We Value Them. This Eventually Leads To A Lack Of Appreciation And Tension. According To Yashar Kafi, "One Of The Most Expensive Things You Can Ever Do Is Pay A...

FROM ANT TO GIANT

There Is An Element Of ANT In Everyone That Became A GIANT Today. This Means That, No One Achieves Greatness Without Starting From The Beginning. The Way To The Top Is From The Bottom. To Go Up, You Must First Go Down (i.e. Humble, Broken And Meek). Just Like The Scripture Says, "Though Your Beginning May Be Small, Your Later End Shall Greatly Be Established." (Job 8:7). And, “Unless A Grain Of Wheat Falls Down To Earth, It Remains Alone; But If It Dies, It Bears Much Fruit." (John 12:24). Nobody Becomes A Giant Overnight! You Have To Pass Through Various Developmental Stages Or Processes, With Rough Roads And Tough Moments. The DNA To Be GIANT Actually Lies Within Each Of Us, Inactive, That We Need To Wake Up From Sleep. Becoming A Giant Is Not About Physical Strength Or Size. It Means Achieving Excellence, And Becoming A Voice In Our Areas Of Endeavours. All We Need To Do Is Look Inwards To See What Our Potential Is And Exploit It. We Are In The Foundation Mouth Of T...

THINKERS ARE THANKERS!

An adage in my village says, “Ti omode ba dupe ore ana, a ri omiran gba.” Meaning, that if a child offers thanksgiving for yesterday’s kindness received, he will receive another from the giver. As the year is winding up, you and I have a reason to thank God for His benevolence. If you can THINK you can THANK. When you count your blessings and name them one by one, you will realise that God has done much for you this year. You may have lost some things this year, but God has not allowed you to lose everything! Give Him thanks! Your dreams early this year may not have come to pass, but you still have a mouth to scream and lick ice-cream, and your hands are still intact to even cream your body! Give Him thanks Your 2024 RESOLUTION might have suffered DISSOLUTION, but God has not allowed you to suffer DISLOCATIONS. Give Him thanks When you know that to come this far is not by your power, knowledge, wisdom, understanding, holiness, faithfulness, or prayers, you need to be grateful to God....

THE RAG OF SUCCESS

Success in any area of our endeavour is built on a tripod I call "RAG." RAG has nothing related to clothing! It is an acronym. So, to succeed, you need a RAG: R-Revelation: Revelation is the first step for a man to experience a revolution in life. For a man to have a breakthrough, he must have a revelation of What, When, Where, How and through Whom the breakthrough would happen. Revelation is the divine compass which gives the direction our life should follow. Abraham's revelation activated a revolution that led to his evolution (Genesis 12:1-3). Understand that the revolution of a man begins with a revelation from heaven. A- Action: After revelation, you need to take actionable steps to actualize the elements of the revelation. The revelation will lead to your revolution when action is taken on it, that is built in faith. Remember, nothing moves until force or power is applied to it. Dream becomes ordinary ice cream or cream if action is not taken to actualize it. No mat...
