PUT ON THE LIGHT FOR OTHERS

As individuals we go through things, positive and negative. Everything works together for good for those that love God and are called according to His purpose. Life is a school with different phases and so many ups and downs. In a school, when you are taught, you will sit for exam. Not everybody that goes to school make the most of it. The lessons of life can be through experiential knowledge (what you go through) or through the experiences of others, which has the ability of living you better or bitter. Some processes may be tough but we just have to go through them. Jesus too wished the cup could pass over. This article was inspired by a write up on the intention of Ibidun Ighodalo of blessed memory for her 40th birthday. A woman who went through IVF 11 times and none was successful and she eventually settled for adoption. She planned to help 40 families to have their babies. What a laudable project and I know God will bless 40 families with miracle children in this season in Jesus name. We have a ministry in our pain. There’s a message in every mess and a testimony in every test. God allows us to go through some things to be a blessing to others. Don’t be too much into the pain of what you have gone through or you are going through that you miss the lesson or assignment. I read an article of a blind man who turns on the light for his visitors when they come in. It’s not because he needs the light but because others need it. Let’s be a blessing to people while we can. Let your light so shine that people can see your good works and give glory to God. You are made to make positive impact irrespective of your background or your story. In every story, there’s glory. Your joy shall be full and your testimony complete in Jesus name.

    True talk! Sometimes we can be engrossed in our challenges that we don't connect to what God want to work out from it to bless others.

TIME TO PRAY

-
There’s never a time to pray as this. We have been praying and it is obvious that our prayer is working for us. However, we need to intensify our prayer. No wonder Jesus said “men always ought to pray and not to faint.” We can not afford to fold our hands or faint    at a time as this, with the development all over the world. If we faint in the days of adversity, our strength is small.  IF WE DON’T PRAY, WE BECOME A PREY.  If we are willing to pray, there’s a God that is willing to answer. 2 Chronicles 7:14 KJV [14] If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. In the place of prayer, direction is given, help is secured and transformation takes place. Prayer is giving God permission to intervene in the affairs of men. You will agree with me that we need to give God permission to move in our lives ...

OVERCOMING FEAR

-
OVERCOMING FEAR Fear is a trick of the enemy to keep you oppressed, suppressed and depressed. You are probably afraid because of what you have seen or heard, something you believe you can’t handle. Have you ever asked yourself, why am I afraid? Assuming you have a project to deliver    and you don’t have the capital to execute it before the dateline, you get apprehensive and lose your sleep because a lifetime opportunity is about to slip off. But when you know a Bank will handle it, you go to sleep because your fear is taken care of. You have a Father who is not only greater than the Bank but owns the whole world (Psalm 24:1) and gives you access to Himself 24/7. He’s always ready to carry your burden if you bring them to Him. So why are you afraid/agitated? The issue with most of us is that we weigh our issues with our strength. We look    at our capacity or capability instead of looking at the capability of God. This reminds me of a story in the Bible in 1Samuel...

MAKE THE MOST OF YOUR RELATIONSHIPS

-
MAKE THE MOST OF YOUR RELATIONSHIPS We are all blessed one way or the other. I see relationship as one of those blessedness. It’s important to God so it is very important to me. Some people will come your way for a short period and some for long periods almost a life time. When they go down memory lane in another ten years, would they be grateful they met you or otherwise? It is possible to be good and do a wrong thing that wipes out the good due to the extent of hurt it brings. I know there are people that you’re nice to that will forget and hold on to little wrong. There’s nothing you can do about that, just be good. Forgive, forgive and forgive. Applaud people when you can. Encourage them, help them, inspire them, appreciate them, love them, check up on them. These things have a way of coming back to you cos they are seeds. Relationships are resources, you may need to draw from, some time or maybe your children. You definitely will need people at every phase of your life. Don’t thin...
