that set back is just a set up to get back up

EVERYDAY JESUS
Good day people,
Today I woke up with a whole lot of questions, the somewhat sad news I heard yesterday had somehow dampened my mood but I did get about my morning rituals of cleaning and getting set for work. The way I felt still didn’t fizzle away and it just seemed to slow down every thing I did. Okay here’s the thing, my system’s hard disk crashed some weeks ago with such valuable information I had not yet backed up on any other drive and you can be sure of this I was sad. When I went to the guys that shoulda helped me with the issue they said there was no hope. Continue reading

Excerpts: THE POWER TO PRODUCE –SCHOOL OF IMPACT, 11TH January 2015.
Find out how to enjoy the best of God.
The Teaching session began with Pastor Segun stating that man’s natural desire to procastinate because the environment doesn’t resemble or seem connected to his goal in any way makes sense, but it doesn’t ‘make spirit’.
He took us to Hebrews 11:3 where it says; we have been made to understand
that it was through faith on the word from God’s mouth was the world
framed. That the things we see now were not made from the things which earlier
appeared.
He explained the in the above verse that men of faith grabbed their time and framed it. You don’t wait till an era resembles your vision for you to
act. All you need is the word from God to take any era and stand. If you
are going to shape things, you will need to follow the one who makes the framing. You need to watch, listen and follow his…

QUICK QUOTEs
Never compromise on excellence; Never plan to manage.
Samuel Ezeonyeka
PERFECT ME…
I am so perfect, in fact I have never and will never see anybody as perfect as me.
When I make a mistake; I’m only human, when others make a mistake; they are careless,
When I fail a course; the lecturer failed me, when others fail a course; they are dull,
When I eat all d food; I’m hungry, when others eat all the food; they are greedy,
When I come to church late; I was busy, when others come to church late; they don’t fear God,
When I win; I am obviously the best, when others win; they are lucky,
When I shout angrily; they provoked me, when others shout angrily; they have no self control,
When I fall asleep; I was tired, when others fall asleep; they are lazy,
When I drink garri; I’m being content, when others drink garri; they are broke & poor.
When I play games; I’m relaxing, when others play games; they are wasting their time.
Can’t you see how perfect I am & flaw full everyone else, that’s why I have a right to criticize everyone ( and maybe even God)
Perfect me … Or …is that, insensitive & judgmental me.
–William Udousoro
The Cost of Christianity
The Christianity that costs you nothing, profits you nothing,
If it cant cost you sleep, it wont profit you rest,
If it cant cost you food , it wont profit you satisfaction,
If it cant cost you risk, it wont profit you safety,
If it cant cost you friends, it wont profit you relationships,
If it cant cost you money, it wont profit you wealth,
If it cant cost you sacrifice, it wont profit you consolation,
If it cant cost you seeds, it wont profit you harvest,
If it cant cost you death, it wont profit you life,
If it cant cost you the world, it wont profit you Christ.
The Christianity that cost you nothing profits you nothing.
True Christianity will cost you everything, but will give you much more.
EVERYDAY JESUS
I may not have been able to remember what day it was or why I and Uche (a friend) were on the road that day but the sight we saw stays fresh on my mind till this day. I do know for certain though that we were on our way to the house we both shared, in the University and then we saw the most awkward sight. Right before our very eyes was a really angry chicken furiously chasing after a dog. If I had not seen this myself I would have doubted the incident firmly but it did happen and fortunately enough I can testify to it. Anyways, just to be sure I asked Uche who was obviously as stunned as I was if he had witnessed this same sight and he confirmed it, a chicken had just chased a dog across the street.
True to instinct I went for my phone but before I could capture anything comprehensible the scene had ended. The chicken chased the dog through an open gate leading to the home of the Priest for the Catholic Church in my school.
While we watched in amazement, all of a sudden we saw the dog chase the chicken out of the gate they had just gone into minutes earlier. At that moment the sigh that escaped our lips must have sounded like “Aha! That makes sense”. All was well because order had been restored to the world or so it seemed.
You know, I think for a moment there that poor dog must have forgotten who he was especially by the amount of noise this cock was making. Still for whatever reason while in the premises of the Catholic priest, he must have come to himself and with whatever dignity he had left he conquered his fears and showed the chicken who’s boss.
Most times, we are like that dog. We seem to forget who we are in Christ Jesus and when the devil makes a little noise, we scamper off our tails between our legs. Well this here is to remember you who you are. You are a son of the living God, created in His Image, surnamed of Him and carrying the fullness of His nature within you. The devil might be a spirit but you are a trinity just like divinity. You are powerful. You are beautiful. You are just not like the dog in my story, you are a Lion! So gather yourself, stand up bold and strong and put the devil in his place.
Grace
