For every symbolic event in history, there is a defining moment. A lot of activities could contribute to culminate that historic event, but there is always this moment when it will be conspicuous that history will be made.
The 78th minute goal scored by Victor Ikpeba during the 1996 Olympic semi final game between Nigeria and Brazil was obviously the defining moment of that historic game.
During the historic marathon race of 1960, the defining moment in that race was the sight of the Obelisk of Axum by Abebe Bikila as he strode towards the finish line. For a great part of the game, he tried to keep abreast of the race favourite. But the sight of that statue became his springboard to writing his name in the history books.
Out of all the things going on in your life now, there is that particular one that is your springboard to victory and greatness. You will need to pray for sensitivity in order to make the most out of it. That difficult situation you are in today that has brought you to the point of almost throwing in the towel, could just be the spring board to victory. Hang in there, don’t give up yet, you are just one step away from winning. Just step on the spring board and win.
Stay blessed.

John 3:30
He must increase, but I must decrease.
The saying was declared by John the Baptist, when being interrogated concerning Jesus Christ. And how these words must really daily permeate our whole being again and again. How they must control our thinking, if we must always enjoy the evident manifestation of the supernatural of God in our life, just as God has determined for us in Christ Jesus.
This is it, the more you are daily yielded to Jesus Christ, the more the Name of Jesus Christ will be power-commanding in your mouth and life. The Name of Jesus Christ is surely above all names, people, kings, presidents, nations, continents, spirits, devils, sicknesses, situations, weapons of war of all kinds, hoodlums, kidnappers, terrorists, gods/deities, religions, just name it, both in this world and in that which is to come. But this Name can only sufficiently and effectively work in your mouth, in your life and through your life, to the extent that you have been surrendered to the lordship of Jesus Christ.
2Cor. 4:10-11
10
KJV:Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.
11
KJV:For we which live are always delivered unto death for Jesus’ sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.
Beloved, you must see to it that you daily die to self, your own will and things of this world, that the power of Christ may readily flow in and through your life, especially when you call the Name of Jesus Christ.
Shalom.

Hmmmm, life is funny.it has a way of making fun of one and making a person of strong will fill foolish. When life laughs, it tries to laugh out as loud as possible, that one begins to question HIS father in heaven. This type of laughter could bring great shame that goes straight for your heart and that moment we break.
This laughter is worse than human laughter, because it seems you are living but you don’t feel alive, the world outside is turning and yours is dying still. Things seem not to move and even when you take a step forward; it seems you just took ten backward. You cry out, pray out, praise out and it is still, still.
Ps 23 v 2b said….. He leads me beside the still waters. When everything seems still, then be STILL. Because God just said in the above scripture that He will lead you beside whatever is still in your life, yes, He knows it is still. Who else do you think can see you through? Who do you think can bring hope to you even when you think you are far in your still zone.
Mark 4 vs. 39 said……He awoke and rebuked the wind and said Peace BE STILL and the wind ceased, and there was great calm. Things are STILL with God for a reason, is not that the wind was not good, No, but it was not needed at that point in time, to show itself of. As hard as it may be or seem, WE need to be STILL like the wind so that the Name of God be glorified in our life.
sometimes things may happen and we say it is not God, so we look for alternative ways of getting what we want, but God is coming in straight for your heart and all He needs is you to BE STILL and know that HE is God, He would bring light to the darkest part to your life and everything would change…..just know you are not too FAR from HIM.
I guess what has been going on since I started writing could be to remind you and me that the night can’t last for long, so lift up your eyes, look beyond the clouds of life that laughs at you. You are going to make it. If your heart is breaking, because there is a promise to those that hold on even when you can’t imagine a way out. BE STILL………Ps 46 vs 10a………..BE STILL AND KNOW THAT I AM GOD.
