NEVER EXALT MEN ABOVE GOD

Happy Sunday, everyone! Grace from God is amazing! Grace over our lives, conquer, occupy, win and overcome! 

Noting down a few things this morning and thought l should share this with you. In the event when Samuel heard the Lord calling him once more, Eli encouraged Samuel to heed God's voice and avail himself should he hear the Lord calling him again (1 Samuel 3:4-20). Eli didn't think Samuel couldn't hear God without him, and Eli didn't think it was a betrayal that God spoke to Samuel without telling him first.

We see the heart of a good father and custodian of grace in Eli. He never assumed ownership of Samuel. A healthy environment and perception of God allows you to grow in hearing Him, following Him and obeying Him. A healthy environment will promote and propel faithfulness to God above loyalty to man. Your growth will be its pride, not its pain. It will revel in your strides, not deem you a rebel.

The heartbeat will be a "go-ye" mandate, not a "stay-ye" motion. It will depict a river with many streams leading out to the city to make it glad (territorial influence) not a dam, stagnantly present.

Do not stay too long in spaces where pursuing God's calling over your life is considered betrayal. May Christ Jesus set the captives free. #happysundayeveryone #unlearntolearn

LIFE IS YOUR OWN CURATED EXPERIENCE

Happy Saturday unto you, dear beloved. I hope you are still well and in glorious spirit. Challenges are inevitable, regret is optional depending on whether or not you give up. All things are possible through you, you are the vessel that must carry your own dreams and weather any and all storms in your wake. To ultimately dock the shore of success.

Also, keep in mind that living up to your purpose and pursuing your passions should not be hindered by conforming to societal expectations or pleasing others. I hope you've realised that you only have one life to live and that doing the right thing will bring you happiness.

Living ought to be about being yourself. In order to make them feel at ease, don't let anyone diminish your strength or intensity. Also, no one should make you feel bad about your impulses. Be true to who you are. Hopefully, you will allow yourself to learn how to set limits and resist being swept off your feet when you meet new people. 

This lets you learn about them, avoid toxic or abusive relationships, and ultimately find easy, satisfying relationships. Because it appears suddenly, triggering trauma is difficult to deal with. It has nothing to do with the people who set it off. It is entirely dependent on its desire to be felt and, ultimately, to be healed. Trauma can be triggered in us or triggered in us, and we play all roles in it. Get rid of those negative beliefs. I hope this is clear. Improve your life, do something you're proud of, and have confidence. #unlearntolearn 

HELLO FEBRUARY

New month blessings unto you, dear beloved. I missed you all so much! I hope you are still well and in good health. It's a brand-new month to live, laugh, be happy, give thanks for blessings, love and smile. May God bless you and your loved ones and keep you safe.

Every setback we face is a time of reckoning. Every delay we face on the journey to realising our dream is a time of choice, for we must choose what we do next. In these moments when the success we desire seems to be out of grasp we must decide how much it really means.

If in your heart of hearts, the realisation of your goal really matters, have faith that you'll always find there (In your innermost self) the spark that is needed to fire yourself up and again. #tryagain #dontgiveupyet #youcanstilldoitagain #hopeforthebest #havefaith #believeinyourdreams #itshallbewellsoon #happyfebruary #monthfulloflove #monthfullofblessings

MAKE A RADICAL CHANGE

Happy Wednesday unto you, dear beloved. I hope you are still well and in good health. There is so much you can control in life, which is your own curated experience. Never cede that authority to anyone. Make the choices that will shape your reality and life experience in a better way.

Make a radical change in your lifestyle and begin to boldly do things which you may previously never have thought of doing, or been too hesitant to attempt. So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservation, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality, nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. 

The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun. If you want to get more out of life, you must lose your inclination for monotonous security and adopt a helter-skelter style of life that will at first appear to you to be crazy. But once you become accustomed to such a life you will see its full meaning and its incredible beauty.

THE GOAL IS TO KEEP MOVING

Happy new week unto you, dear beloved. I believe you are still well and in good health. The goal is to keep moving. The concern is to keep moving in the right direction. The pace, however, is an irrelevant matter.

This year is all about breaking boundaries, unleashing the power that God has instilled in me and overcoming the limitations I've set for myself. Least to say, I am proud to be expressing this because to be honest, I've been such a pessimist in the past. 

Here is to learning into thinking positively, putting the work to achieve all my dreams, rebranding myself and making myself proud. To achievements, achievements and more achievements. #fetchyourlife #improveyourlife #dosomethingthatmakesyouproud #dothebestyoucan

MAINTAIN YOUR SPIRITUAL LIFE

Happy Sunday dear beloved! I hope you are still well and in good health. I've witnessed the immutability of God in the land of the living. And I'm ever revived and in deepest awe!

Spiritual growth is not coincidental in as much as it's not inheritable, it is however intentional. One will grow because they consistently and persistently without ceasing in all seasons make a willful decision to invest into their spirit man.

With that being said, we must never run away from the fact that we will only get to exude what we are ever aware of. Our outward and public fruit is the expression and nature of the power that's at work in us. May we choose as early as this very moment to be the good stewards of the time given unto us so we may act accordingly in due season. 

Because reality is that, how and what and who we spend our time on and with respectively culminates to what and who we will be (grown up or still need a wheelbarrow push). Nothing is sore bitter to the heart than having to be a tree that's wanting of the fruit on the day of personal visitation of the Lord.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Happy new year unto you, dear beloved! I believe you are still well and in good health. I pray that this year will be both fruitful and pleasant for you. In everything you shall do, and, in every place, you shall enter, may the favour of God announce you and exalt you. I pray that you will see the goodness of God in every hour, minute and second of the days ahead. Walk with boldness and courage, God is with you!

Dear 2023

I am ready and I am so grateful for all the experiences and lessons learned in 2022. My word for 2023 is opulence, opulence of thought, of standards and values. Values over resolutions! Embodying over performing! Practicing over perfecting!

Here's to a beautiful healthy opulent year ahead everyone. May 2023 bring us all a bit more grace!

"So be content with who you are, and don't put on airs. God's strong hand is on you; He'll promote you at the right time. Live carefree before God; He is most careful with you." - 1 Peter 5:6‭-‬7 MSG

HOLD YOUR AMOUR OF INTEGRITY

New week blessings unto you, dear beloved. I hope you are still well and in good health. It's a brand-new week to live, laugh, be happy, give thanks for blessings, love and smile. May God bless you and your loved ones and keep you safe. This is the last week of the year, own it! 

Please take note: Avoid as much as you can people who will sit with you and happily criticise another person, they normally thrive on gossip, simply those who gossip will normally gossip about you too in earshot. What's worse, gossip travels fast spreading from person to person.

Often, it can even get back to the person you were talking about in the first place, a sure-fire way to ruin a relationship and destroy someone's reputation. Gossipers are easy to spot and some thrive on it for years. Great leaders realise trust is built on fairness and transparency. They never succumb to the tendency to gossip, however tempting.

Nonetheless, remain focused and put on the amour of integrity.

HAPPY CHRISTMAS BELOVED

Happy Christmas to everyone. I love and wish everyone the best. It's a lovely day! And God's incredible love and mercies make it all possible.

God is a loving God! When this truth becomes real to you, you can believe Him and receive more from Him. A lot of times we pray to meet God's power when in actual fact, what we really need is to experience His love!

God's love conquers even His power. His power is controlled by His love. In John 3:16, the Bible says, "For God so loved the world that He gave..." rather than, "For God was powerful or mighty that He gave..." Love is more powerful than power. Power can go far but not as far as love can go. When power gets tired it is love that carries it along. Jesus had power, but it wasn't enough to get Him to the cross. It is love that sustained His journey and enabled Him to fulfill and accomplish His mission. Love is the greatest force of all. Love covers a multitude of sins. Love is God! #Godislove #Godcares #Godlovesyou

FOLLOW YOUR OWN PASSION

Happy Saturday beloved, I missed you all a lot! I believe you are still well and in good health. I pray you find the courage to be honest with yourself, especially about yourself. My back is against the wall, but I outclass these problems, always. 

A gentle reminder this festive season: Resist the urge to obsessively compare your life journey; which you know intimately well, to other people's highlight reels, which you only see in passing! 

Realign yourself for 2023! You don't always have to be on autopilot! Take some time out this weekend and just root yourself in God's word. Plan your 2023, write your visions down like the Bible instructs us to, but most importantly, start working on those areas of your life that you felt were lacking or fell short this year. Start your journey of healing, so that next year you don't go through life feeling how you felt now. I'm dedicating my 2023 to self-empowerment, growth and healing. 

What are you hoping for in 2023? #chooselove #takecareofyourself #christmaseve #happyholidays2022 #festivetime #enjoyyourselves #besafeeveryone #drivesafe #beresponsible #arrivealive #believeinyourself #youwillmakeit #growthmindset #explorepage #dontrushtheprocess #followyourpassion

READING IS FUNDAMENTAL

Good evening beloved, I believe you are still well and in good health. The power of your mind is amazing! Stimulate your mind with deep thoughts and dreams. The gift of life is in your mind, live it consciously!

Take note 📝: Read at least 10 pages before going to bed. A habit that I picked up in the last 4 months is turning into a behaviour.

Benefits:

- Better vocabulary (In turns more fruitful conversations).

- Higher patience and concentrated listening (Critical in a customer-facing environment).

- Improved Knowledge (Adds a different perspective over individuals thinking).

- Learning from others experiences than self-failures.

- Less stress and a great feeling of achievement.

Here are some of the titles that I enjoyed the most:

- The Psychology of Money: Timeless Lessons on Wealth, Greed, and Happiness Book by Morgan Housel

- Atomic Habits: An Easy and Proven Way to Build Good Habits and Break Bad Ones Book by James Clear

-Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion by Robert B. Cialdini
