God is not a respecter of persons but principles. God cannot be intimidated by anyone into favoring him/her. His generosity is without doubt and as long as we meet God on his terms He will crown our year with goodness and fill our mouth with laughter

Why most people take this truth for granted is amazing. To not reap whatever you sow will be a mockery to God. Jacob, regardless of the blessings of Abraham on his life, reaped in manifolds the seed of dishonesty he sowed.

It all went wrong when the anointed cherub allowed his heart to be corrupted. One main aim for all the lessons life will throw at us is to know who we really are; the state of heart. Proverbs say, "As a man thinks so is he". The contemplation in your heart defines you. Who are you?

One question life will always ask you is, “whose advise will you listen to?”. Whether we are aware of it or not, we are all influenced by people’s advice. Wisdom is in knowing whose advice you listen to and those to reject. Rehoboam failed this question, may that never be our story. Wisdom is the ability to know whose advice to listen to and those to reject.

There is a time for everything under the sun. As simple as this truth seems it determines to a large extent those that rise and those that fall. Gehazi missed it all because he took gifts at the wrong time. The sons of Issachar led the Israelites simply because they knew what ought to be done at each moment

Why was Samson with lady who has attempted to deliver him to his enemies thrice. We always seem to overestimate ourselves and think that we can surround ourselves with certain people and not be influenced by them. Just by not walking in the counsel of the unglody, nor standing in the way of sinners, nor sitting in the sits of the scornful we are blessed. The opposite happens to those who do like S...

The little recorded about Vashit speaks volumes about the lady she was. Though very beautiful she need more to sustain what her beauty got her, which is wisdom. According James wisdom is easily entreated but Queen Vashit could not be entreated by 7 nobles to heed to the King

The bible can be referred to as the "past questions and answers" to life. The truths in the Bible among others are to teach us how to make right choices in life. It is not just about learning from what others did but also learning from the mistakes of others. Judas valued his relationship with Jesus, the uncreated creator for 30 pieces of sliver. Don't repeat the same.

Patience is as a result of a tested faith. A faith that is not tested cannot be trusted to guarantee results. In a quest to build whatever vision God has given us for this year, endurance and long suffering in addition to faith is what will get the vision accompanied

Not being fully convinced of our advantage as God's children causes us to abandon projects. One arsenal we take for granted is prophesies, so Paul had to remind the church not to despise prophesying.

We cannot afford to be naive regarding the several giants that seek to rob us of the energy and joy with which we will need to finish projects we start. Without even realizing our dreams remain dreams. Jesus at Gethsemane wanted to throw in the towel and so will we also want to be passive and even abandon projects we start.

The joy and energy with which we have dreams and start projects seems to be non-existent not long after. The characteristics of our Father is, He declares the end from the beginning and finishes whatever He starts. And as his, children we are to be imitators of God.

Jonah was so convinced of the mercies and grace of God that he knew God would have still found a way to save the land of Nineveh. We have to understand that we are never beyond the saving grace of God regardless of our deeds.

How fascinating it is that just these few words from the prophet Jonah was able to drive the entire land of Nineveh into fasting and repentance to seek the face of God. Sometimes we may feel reluctant to obey the commands of God but if we just do, the effect is always tremendous.

It is interesting how we only turn to God when we have exhausted all our avenues of help. God should always be our first point of call in our times of trouble.

It is interesting how Jonah decided to go contrary to the word he received from God yet he was bold enough to speak of his reverence for God to the men on the ship. As Christians, this is sometimes our disposition. Our thoughts, words and deeds must be in sync with the word of God.

He who controls your desires controls your life. This is why people are addicted to things they know very well is destroying them but can’t seem to do much about but succumb. Their desires have been held captive. God is instructing us that as His children, our desire should be set on heavenly things. It is our responsibility.

Jesus teaching us how to pray effectively tells us that our prayers must be borne from a genuine desire for what we want. Our desires are a voice before our father. The psalmist tells us that, for anyone who delights himself in the Lord, the Lord will give him the desires of his heart. Mark 11:24.

All the battles, frustrations, delays, denials and pain we go through is aimed at us losing our faith. Our faith in God is the most precious thing about our lives. The agenda of the devil is to make God look like a liar. Keep the faith no matter the scares life gives us. 2 Timothy 4:7

There is a race set before us. It’s a long race that many give up on but we cannot afford to. It is a race that we must finish regardless of how frustrating and tiring it gets. It’s a race we run with patience. Keep running! 2 Timothy 4:7

They are many metaphors that describes life, one of such was revealed to Timothy by Paul; life is a fight. There’s a good fight we have been called into, sadly; many are fighting the wrong battles. One primary fight we are to engage in with our all is to ensure that we live out God’s purposes for our life. 2 Timothy 4:7

Many people are not who they potray to be. People wanted to stone a woman for the very acts they also commit and worse. Sadly, many of us are not even genuinely aware of our own short comings because we hardly ever evaluate ourselves honestly. (John 8:9)

Exiting your echo chamber is a life-long journey of seeking Truth. As Christians we need to be consistent about what we believe and our actions. This is one way to guarantee a seat at the marketplace of ideas.

Doing the work of an evangelist is part of the job description of every child of God. Paul in writing to Timothy acknowledged that he may not have been called into the office of the evangelist but it does not stop him or us today from doing the work of the evangelist. (2 Timothy 4:5)

In our quest to engage other worldviews and exit our echo chambers, we should acknowledge that there are elements that go beyond the physical realm. We discuss the influence of the spiritual realm.
