I SPENT THE NIGHT THINKING OF QUITTING

Image
I've waited on God over certain issues in my life that had taken so long. The issues of disappointment and shame that I was passing through no matter how much I've prayed and sought for prayers from other men of God. The pressure had gotten so hold of me that I thought God is disinterested in my affairs. So one night I started thinking of quitting, not quitting on the fact that there is God but on the one that He doesn't care for me. I started thinking of any other life I can have that means I don't have to depend on God on anything. While I was thinking, I saw in my mind the negative effect my loss of faith would have on me, and those who had been looking up to me as a christian. While there was a famine of miracles in my life, I've seen miracles in others therefore it would unfair for me to totally debunk the reality of God because I have not seen Him interfering in my own affairs as advertised. Then I got to a question that made me stop thinking o...

suicide

IT’S EASIER TO TRY AGAIN THAN TO COMMIT SUICIDE To commit suicide, you must harden your heart against the pain you are going to suffer your neck (if you want to die by hanging yourself) or your belly (if you are considering food poisoning) and against the voice of your conscience warning you not to. Death isn’t easy to achieve that’s why bullets are costly and having and using a gun requires both physical and mental and emotional training. The strength and tenacity those who committed suicide used in killing themselves, if they’ve used it to try again on life, they would have succeeded. Are you having suicidal thoughts because of what is happening around you? If you have strength to go through that thought and executes it, then you’ll need only half or less than half of that strength to make it in life. Our world is broken and your case is no different. The devil is still the same and the amount of harm he can cause has not increased beyond what he used to therefore if other...

THERE ARE NO SPECIAL TEMPTATIONS2

Jephtah made it from a slum where he had no proper education, no conducive living environment and where he was surrounded with vain men. Gideon succeeded with only 300 hundred soldiers in the battles where numbers of soldiers matter in order to get victory Rehab rooted out of the house of harlotry and become counted among the lineage of Christ. Wherever you are in life today, there are those who from worse place came forth and succeeded in life No matter how less privileged you are, there are those lesser privileged than you that made it No matter how sinful and cursed your past is, there are those who came from a more cursed and worse past than you and became great. There is no hindrance before you that’s not common to men and there is no temptation that is only unique to you. If others made it from far worse situations than you, you too can and will in Jesus name. The powers of darkness is still same, people are still making it despite the presence of curses, darknes...

GOD WONT ALLOW MEN

GOD WON’T ALLOW MEN PLAY HIS ROLE IN YOUR LIFE Joseph was sold to be a slave in Egypt but he ended up being the prince of Egypt, people may determine where you are placed but they can’t determine what God shall place on you in that place, men may try to control who you’ll become but God shall definitely decide what shall become of you. A pastor was sent to the Northern part of Nigeria as a punishment by his seniors but right there in the north, he is doing far better and has bought a house and is driving assorted cars. His senior intended that he’ll suffer because people are now scared of meeting in church due to the Bokoharam menace but God showed that men can’t take his place in the life of those who has given their lives to Him. Some people might be against your education because they want you to have an average life, they may be fighting your progress because they don’t want you achieve successful fits in life etc. I want you to know that God will never allow anyone play His...

GIVE FLESH TO YOUR DREAMS

No man was born without a passion and dreams in life; every man’s purpose was birthed with such a man. From our childhood we have shown interest in certain areas of the needs of man. As a kid, I remember gathering all the sick kid in the neighborhood and administering leafs, salt, penicillin and hot water to their wounds and ailments. Everyone thought I was going to be a doctor though I’m not, but who I am now has so much to do with the sick, I was also good with my legs and strong imaginative power. But when am cleared in my heart that I would be a pastor and having several visions in life as in the kind of pastor I would want to be and the extend of work I would wat to accomplish in the kingdom of God, I spent my entire life and still spending all my resources to give flesh to these visions and dreams. Everything I have to avoid in achieving success I avoid, every-time I have to give to become prosperous, I keep giving and spending every money I have to spend in other that m...

WHAT YOU ARE NOT MAKES YOU WHO YOU ARE

WHAT YOU ARE NOT MAKES YOU WHO YOU ARE I shared my lodge at school with some blind student and I tell you, because they were blind, they could hear and smell far better, I remember when one of the blind lodge mate detected a plot against us from a distance. Though I could see people discussing but I wasn’t hearing what they were discussing and though he couldn’t see them, he could hear them and as a result we escape that plot against us. What you are not enables you to maximize who you are. Life is a chain of events, if ‘this’ isn’t happening in your life, make sure ‘that’ is happening. If you’ve not gotten admission to study in the university, it gives you the opportunity to learn a skill, trade or perfect your God given talent whether is sports, music, entertainment, writing etc. if Job isn’t coming, you can start planning on doing a business and if marriage isn’t happening, you can make take advantage of your singlehood and pursue a vision or goal in life etc. just don’t sta...

WON AFTER FALLING 3 GOALS BEHIND

Am a Liverpool fan and do follow all their games; they were losing 3 nil in champions league final against AC Milan and during the second half they came from behind to win. No team has been losing by 3 and ever come out victorious in a tough league like a champion’s league finals in history except for Liverpool fc. The first half of your life may had been filled with several loses; no healthy relationships, no opportunity for education, no opportunity for skills acquisitions, abuses, rapes, HIV infections, teenage pregnancy, neglects by spouse etc. and right now you think you cant go on because you believe that because of the loses that you are in right now, their is no hope for you, well I come to tell you that their is hope. The only sign of hopelessness is death, once you are alive, it means God still believes in you, He still believes you can equalize for your entire loses and come forth victorious in life. For there is hope for a tree, if it be cut down, that it will sp...

MY FIRST HATRICK

During my football days, I played for a club where the coach doesn’t believe in me, so I played from the bench. I couldn’t even trap or perfectly control the ball whenever he decided to throw me into a match. One day, another club came for me and I was loaned out. This new club made me the captain which was inappropriate because there were older players in the club than me but for the belief my new coach has on me he named me the captain. During my first four match with the club I couldn’t score so the rest of the team campaigned against my captainship and I was disbanded shamefully (the coach had told them that I score lots of goals that’s why he made me captain that I was new). I was so ashamed of myself and almost gave up on playing soccer but I decided to try one more time, and in that very match I scored a hatrick (3 goals) to the shame of my teams mates who have protested that am a barren stricker that doesn’t deserve to captain them. It didn’t end their, I went ...
