WHEN YOU DON’T HAVE THE LIFE YOU DREAMED OF!

When God didn’t give you the life you dreamed of, not even close, you have to accept the life that he designed for you, because He knows what is BEST for you. Understand that, your thoughts are not His thoughts; neither are your ways His ways. You may have many plans for yourself, but it is the purpose of God that shall prevail! (Proverbs 19:21) Today, you may be feeling weary, frustrated and disappointed about your life, simply because you are not what you dreamed of. Relax, because you are not alone in that state. Its natural and normal for humans to feel that way. You are free to have that feeling. Go ahead and allow yourself to grieve. You can even weep deeply, if you like. You can mourn the delay of what you hoped for or sad over the loss of what you cherished so much. But then after you have lamented, wash your face, look for good food to eat, buy chicken suya and cold yoghurt to take, and put a smile on your face. Then trust God, and embrace the life he has given you. He knows

FROM FREEDOM TO FREE-DOOM!

It's Human Nature, And Even Animals To Desire Some Measures Of Freedom. Nobody Like To Be Caged. Freedom Connotes Been Independent And Having A Mind Of Your Own, And Taking Responsibility For Your Actions And Inactions. But Nobody Has Exclusive Freedom In This World. We Still Need Check And Balances So That Our Freedom Do Not End Up In Free-Doom. When A Man Or Woman Thinks He Or She Is Free And Independent To Make Certain Decisions, Without Recourse To Safe Counsel, Such An Individual Is Heading To Free-Doom. Even, The Holy Bible Says, “In The Multitude Of Counsel There Is Safety.”(Proverbs 11:14) An Adage In My Village Says,” We Are Protecting The Young Chicks From Untimely Death In The Hands Of The Hawks, And Its Complaining That The Mother Does Not Allow It To Freely Go And Pick In The Dustbin.” The Implication Of Unchecked Freedom In A Disaster - “FREE-DOOM”. Do You Know There Is Danger In Absolute Freedom? - If You Think You Are Matured And Have Freedom To Make Marital Decis

THE EAR OF YOUR HEART!

Sometimes Ago, I Intentionally Refused To Subscribe For My Cable TV For More Than Two Years. The Service Provider Kept Calling Asking If Anything Was Wrong With My Decoder, Because They Discovered I Had Not Subscribed For A Long Time. I Replied That My Decoder Was Okay!

The Beauty Of Raw Gold Cannot Come Out Except It Passes Through The Furnace Where It Is Refined To Become A Precious, Valuable, Expensive, Luxurious And Beautiful Gem. So Is Every Problem In Your Life. It Is Meant To Take You To The Next Level That God Intended For You (Jeremiah 29:11). Its Human To Tag You With A Name Based On The Problem Or Challenges You Are Facing. For Example, The Lame Man At The Beautiful Gate (Act 3:1-10); Blind Bartimeaus (Luke 10:42-51); Woman With Issue Of Blood (Mark 5:25-34).

The Endpoint Of Every Problem Is The Ability To Give You An Emblem, In Form Of New Name, New Status, New Levels, New Insight, New Revelation, New Perspective, And New Orientation In Life.

THE MYSTERY OF THE HEAD

When I was young and in the village, my late father used to do some special traditional prayers and oblation. And during the prayer process, he would hold his head with his two hands and begin to make positive pronouncements. Because I was closer to my father, he would sometimes tell me some hidden ancient wisdom and secrets. So, I asked him, "Father, what is special about your head that you always hold in your two hands when doing oblations?" He replied, "Femi, ori eni ni awure. Ori eni ni ngbere koni." Meaning, “our head is the custodian of wealth and our head is an attractor of blessing, favour and fortune.” And he counselled me to always make pronouncements with both hands holding my head. He said that whatever I use my mouth to say to my head is what would happen. That, it's the ancient secrets that never fail. Why the head? What is so significant about the head? What is the mystery surrounding the head? I queried! The head is the most important part of the

STOP BEING A “YES” PERSON!

It is human nature to feel recognised, to be part of the system, to be part of the moving train, to be part of a team, to be part of a group or society, and to be the “good person” in the “good book” of other people. You are definitely living in an illusion! You can’t always say YES to everybody! Dare to be different in a world where everyone is the same: see alike, talk alike, reason alike, think alike and do things alike, like puppets! Dare to be different in a world characterized by stereotypes! Get out of the box! To think is to differ. Thinkers are change makers. Those who think don’t sink. According to Clarence Darrow, "A man without the capacity to think is dead; he has no purpose, no present, and no future." Know that, you have no COPY in this world, because you are created UNIQUE, and a RARE SPECIES! (Psalm 139:14) Standout and be known for something! Be objective and real! The world will adjust to “YOU”! When you have a stand, people will stand with you! Always lear

EVOLVE OR DISSOLVE!

The world has been described as a moving train. If you don’t join the train, you will be left behind. In order not to be left behind, you MUST constantly EVOLVE and INNOVATE, otherwise, you will DISSOLVE and DISAPPEAR! To sustain your relevance and remain a man or woman of value, you need to always strive to evolve. Life is a moving, breathing thing. We have to be willing and intentional to constantly evolve in every area of our endeavor. Perfection is constant transformation, a change from the norm. The most dangerous thing to do in life is not to evolve, you will dissolve. It is either you evolve or disappear into oblivion. If you fail to evolve, you will soon see yourself as irrelevant and of no value to society. Society itself will abandon you because you have no value to offer anymore! When you are perceived as a man or woman of value, you attract honour, respect, and even money! The Holy Book says, “The gift of a man will make a way for him, he shall stand before kings and not

COMPLETE, NOT COMPETE!

In life, no one is complete. We are created to complete one another. This means, no man is an island by himself whether in knowledge, wisdom, skill or expertise. No man has the exclusivity of everything. We are not created to be independent but dependent on each other. We are created to complement each other. Know that what you don't have, someone has and what others don't have, you have. This is the vagaries of life! It makes the world interdependent! It's ignorant to say, "I don't need anyone, I can do it alone." no. You can't do it alone! Even if you are a multi-billionaire, your money cannot do everything for you. You still need the services of others, to complete your needs. When god created Adam, he knew he was not complete. He decided to create eve to complete him as a suitable helper, not to compete with him in authority. We must understand and appreciate the fact that, we are created with some imperfections and weaknesses. No perfect human being o

WHAT IS YOUR WORTH?

If I Asked One Hundred People In The Upper Echelon Of Life, What They Are Worth In Life, All Of Them Would Certainly Tell Me Their Worth In Nairas, Dollars, Pounds, Multiple Estates, Fat Bank Accounts, Several Companies, Private Jets, Or Yachts, And Fleet Of Cars, Etc. Unfortunately, Let Me Shock You, That Is Not Your Worth In Life! Your Worth Is Just A Free Tiny, Invisible One Microseconds Of Air You Breathe. Know That No One Is Worth More Than The Air They Breathe. Once It Stops, That Is The End Of All Life Struggles, Dreams, And Aspirations! Your Breath Determines Your State Of Health And Your State Of Health Determines Your Ability To Make Wealth. When You Are Still Breathing, You Can Aspire To Acquire Material Things Of Life. This Is Your Secondary Worth (Job 14:11; Ecclesiastes 9:4-5). Understand That, Nobody In Life Is Worth Anything In This World, No Matter Your Position, Wealth, And Status. It's Pride To Say, "I Know My Worth; I Can't Stoop Low To Mix With Suc

RESERVE TO PRESERVE

Did you know that, self-reservation is one of the keys to self-preservation in life? Self-reservation has positive impacts on how we live, relate, achieve purpose and are perceived by others. Therefore; - Reserve your words and preserve your integrity: A man of few words is feared and honoured. Be unpredictable. Let people keep guessing what you will say or not say. It confuses your adversaries. - Reserve your dream and preserve your future: Learn from Joseph in the Bible. If not for God's grace and mercy, he would have died with his dream by telling his enemies. Not everyone is happy with your dream! Keep your mouth shut. Do not tell everyone your dream. You don't know who is your dream killer. Let people see the dream fulfilled, rather than prematurely telling them. - Reserve your anger and preserve your life from untimely death and destruction: Anger is a destiny destroyer. Preserve your destiny and future from anger trap. - Reserve your finance to prevent future annoyanc
