Can being a little Jealous Help?

Ever wonder why most ladies still remain in  abusive relationships? You see a young lady being physically abused by her partner, most times the reason being why she gave a very long hug to some guy or she wouldn't say who called her and why... You would think, well, this is certainly it,  they are done, but to your surprise the very next day,  you see them holding hands in a shopping mall or a cafeteria some where and you can't help but wonder what kind of voodoo the guy must have used on the girl! Ladies like that are crazy and don't have self worth or esteem,  they should know better than to remain in such relationship might be your response right now, but it's often said that it is he or in this case,  she that wears a shoe that knows where it hurts! For some time now, I have listened, asked questions about this and most times I am always amazed! Some say they chose to remain because the guy aside occasionally laying hands on them, know...

HE SURE QUALIFIES THE CALLED

How to dress to church, who is accepted in church and how to behave in church has always been a matter of controversy in the christian community. Many have spoken about it, may chose to ignore it, others just say its complicated and if you are reading this right now, you probably belong to one of these categories. For me, I am just going to let your know what I feel is right!  First of all Jesus was speaking here in Mark 2:17 ; I am just going to put it out in different versions so you get a better understanding: "On hearing this, Jesus said to them, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners." NIV "And when Jesus heard it, he said to them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I came not to call the righteous, but sinners." ESV "When Jesus heard it , he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that ...

Must I Fast & Pray?

Image
It's almost like a tradition now, almost every church and Christian organization in the world today go on fasting and prayer at the beginning of every year! But then again, results becomes limited when you work without understanding! So in this post I bring you a simple explanation on why you should fast and pray and not just do because everyone is doing it! Where did it come from. Fasting is known as a voluntary going without food in order to focus on prayer and fellowshiping with God. You see fasting and prayer goes hand in hand! Though we are not specifically commanded in the Bible to spend time in fasting and prayers but going through the bible carefully, we get to understand that it's certainly what every believer after an encounter and lifting should engage in. Like in Exo.34:28; Moses fasted 40 days/nights on Mount sinai receiving the Law from God. In 2Chro.20:3; king Jehoshapt called the people of Judah to fast and pray when war was waged against them by th...

WHY UNDERSTANDING?

Four years now, I have been going everywhere teaching on Understanding! And now more than ever, I believe an outstanding life begins with understanding!  It  was no wonder the Psalmist prayed that God would give him understanding that he would live! (Ps. 119:144) Read this, and I pray the eyes of your understanding be opened! Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your understanding. Khalil Gibran Hmm, I can't even begin to tell you how much I enjoy that quote, after the pain of breaking the shell covering your understanding, illumination comes and with it an end to every pain. God said "... My people perish for lack of knowledge"  It all begins with understanding, and this is why I have compiled here a series of not just motivational thoughts but thoughts that will help break every shell enclosing your understanding!   It is not a year to work as an elephant and yet profit like an ant. With uunderstanding you can work like an ant and...
