How You Can Easily Access Your Future

~1.8 mins read

"Whatever you seek to become in life is not somewhere ahead of you; it's inside of you and only you can bring it out."

I have come to realize that a man's future is not an abstract place or a given external destination that he/she is hoping to get to some day. A man's future is within him/her. Everything a man seeks to become is inside of him and can only be brought to physical reality by his/her actions. Our action is the only vehicle that can transpotransport the future we have within us to the physical realm.

How long it takes you to implement the right actions that will trigger the manifestation of your future will determine how long it will take your future to come to you. Our future get delayed most times because we took longer in figuring out the right actions that will cause their trigger. The moment we get the actions right, we start seeing the future we once had in our hearts unfolding before our eyes right from the location where the right action got implemented.

The actions that may cause the manifestation of your future may require you to be in certain locations or places at a given time, but that doesnt mean that the future that you're trying to bring to reality is ahead of you all along - it's in you and it's what is stirring you to act. Most of us have been made to believe that we go into the future. Nah! The future is not a place we go into but a circumstance We call forth to ourselves by what we do. Every man's future is nothing but a pleasant thought in his/her heart, and the only thing that can make such thoughts manifest in your physical space is dependent on how you act on such thought.

Anything you want to become in life has definite requirements that need to be met in order to trigger its manifestation and until such requirements are met, it will only exist in your heart. What you do with your time and how you respond to the pleasant thoughts you have in your heart will greatly influence what your tomorrow will be. Your future is not a destination you have to get to tomorrow, its already within you and it can only be called forth by what you do with your time today. Use your time wisely if you sure want to have a pleasant tomorrow because your future is an accumulation of what you do today with your time and life.

Heaven Or Hell? The Choice Is Yours To Make

~4.7 mins read

KJV: I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: Deut. 30:19.

Four of my neighbours and myself were having a discussion about God's abundant mercy one evening in the front of our compound when one of them asked these questions in succession, 'if God is so merciful like some of you are claiming, why would he send people or so called sinners to hell where they would have to be burning forever?' 'Is that not wickedness?' 'How can such a being be described as merciful?'

After he asked these questions, everyone went mute, waiting for who is going to respond first and the whole place that was vibrating with our arguments a short moment ago was taken over by a very deafening silence. While we were still quiet and thinking of what to say, I could sense a excitement and satisfaction in the countenance of the one that asked the question. Suddenly i responded impulsively, "God will not send anyone to heaven or hell, we are the ones that would decide if it's heaven or hell that we would like to live after we leave this earth"

I could see a surprised look on the face of the questioner. It seems he is yet to grasp the response I just gave. I looked at him and I asked him, "why are some people in prison at this moment while we all are here enjoying this fresh air and wonderful time together?" He looked at me with a frowning face and responded harshly, "they committed crime na!" But...... He was trying to add something else when I interrupted him by asking, "do you think such people would have been in prison if they had not gone against the laws made by the government for the protection of the society?"

He looked at me with a smile and responded; "i can now see the direction you are going to with this! That's a different scenario. Government is not as merciful as you people are claiming that God almighty is. Government put laws in place to create orderliness in the society and anyone that breaks such laws doesn't want the good of the society and they should be made to face the consequences of their act....." He was yet to complete the word 'action' when I cut in by shouting "THANK YOU! You just answered your question by yourself.

Look, whether a man is going to be walking and living freely in the society is dependent on him or her. The moment a man chooses to break the laws of the government, that is the moment he/she has decided to give up his/her freedom because the consequences of breaking government laws are spelt out boldly in the laws. As we are here now, government can't just come and arrest any of us and put us in prison for doing nothing. If they do that, it will be seen as an oppression. But even though we all know that governments could be oppressive a times, we all also know that God is just and can never punish anyone for doing or living right".

From the way he and the others were paying attention to my explanation and nodding in aggreement without any objection, i continued with my explanation. "God has already shown us the way to heaven and the way to hell, and he will never force or compel us to choose either of the way even though he has the power to do that. He allows us to make our choice because he knows that we are going to be accountable for whatever choice we make.

Just as the government have put in place laws to maintain an orderly society and foster unity and development, so has God also put in place laws that would determine who will be spending eternity with him in his kingdom - heaven and who won't. And we all have a choice to make if we'll be following God's laws so that we can be in heaven with him or do the contrary and go to hell. Thus, it's our action that would determine whether we will be spending eternity with God in heaven or with the devil in hell.

People deciding their eternal fate by themselves have nothing to do with God being wicked or merciful. God is so merciful that he keeps giving us opportunity each day to amend our ways and live godly lives. He constantly overlooks our wrong doings and withhold himself from giving us the immediate judgement or punishment that some of our wrong doings deserve because he's hoping that we would change our ways.

That's why the scripture said in the book of 2peter 3:9, that;

" KJV:The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance."

God doesn't want any man to die in his/her sin and go to hell because he knows that hell is not the type of place that anyone would want to be in. He has made a way of escape for us in the person of Jesus christ. But, should any man choose to ignore God's way of escaping hell, abuse God's daily mercies that he is showering on us and choose to die in his/her sins, then such a person is responsible for his/her eternal fate.

Every action has consequences - whether good or bad. So should we consciously go against God's law and ignore the salvation that he has granted unto us freely in Christ Jesus, then whatever befall us when we leave this earth is our own making, not the making of God. Full stop!"

The moment I exclaimed 'full stop', I could see him nodding in agreement. We discussed other things that night before we dispatched to our various homes. And I felt great joy that I could make him understand that his eternal destination is in his hands and he alone can decide where he wants to spend it. It was truly an awesome evening!

So folks, you are the decider of your eternal destination. Who you live your life on earth to please will determine whom you will be spending eternity with. And I pray that God give us the grace to choose right and live for him, so that we won't have any regret when our time here has ended.

Love And Sex, What's The Difference?

~0.5 mins read

What is the difference and similarity between love and sex?

I have come across several people that use love and sex interchangeably. Even most of our musicians do the same thing in their lyrics and this has made so many people believe that love and sex have the same meaning.

There are also several instances where I have seen people in relationship telling their partner to prove their love for them by having sex with them. And should the partner refuse because he/she isn't yet ready for sex in the relationship, he/she will be made to believe that he/she doesn't love his/her partner. So I just want to know what differentiates love from sex and can the two be used interchangeably?

Why You Should Sometimes 'Blow Your Trumpet'

~1.0 mins read

There is this saying that 'it is only an empty or insecure individual that blows his own trumpet '. But i have come to realize that this statement is very wrong. In fact, it is necessary that we blow our own trumpet at some point in our lives because doing such has a way of reviving our confidence in ourselves and stir in us the desire to keep fighting on regardless of the challenges confronting us.

The average human is very economical with praise and would rather criticise and degrade than elevate. Thus, should you wait for others to blow your trumpet for you, you might wait in vain. If anyone should talk about your achievements, it should be you. You energize your spirit anytime you talk about your achievements. It's like reassuring yourself that you can do it again.

Your trumpet is yours to blow and only you can understand and appreciate the melody because you understood the story behind the trumpet, the rhythm and melody of the song you're playing. Don't wait for anyone to sound your trumpet for you because they may never do it unless they have something to gain from it.

Blowing your trumpet sometimes is a good way for you to boost your confidence and remind yourself that you have what it takes to become the best that you could be. The trumpet is yours, so you're at liberty to blow it at will.

This Is Why You Are Yet To Make It

"Athletes don't win gold on the day of the competition, but before the competition."

Every finished product that you'll ever come across passed through a process to arrive at the state that you're seeing it. Whenever you come across Mr. Shiny and valuable gold, ask him what it passed through before arriving at its present shiny and valuable state. You will be surprise to discover that it actually went through fire and a lot of unpleasant processes before arriving at such glorious state.

Anything valuable and worth celebrating in life always has processes that would be passed through in order to attain it. Nothing good comes easy. If you can't go through the process or are not willing to go through the process, then you're not yet ready for what you desire.

Every successful man/woman that you see today passed through processes to become what they are. But any time we come across such successful people, we only see the finished product that they have become and wish to become such finished product without knowing that such finished product that we are now wishing to become wasn't always that way - it probably went through a vigorous process to become what it is today.

If you must achieve anything worthwhile, you must be prepared for the process involve. There can be no gold without fire, likewise nothing good comes out of nothing. So if you must get the desire that you seek, find out what is required in order to get it and make up your mind to go all out for it until you manifest it.

See you at the top!

Enjoy The Blessings In Today

"Every new day you get into is an opportunity for you to make yourself better than what you were the day before."

Welcome to a new day! Today is a day of great possibilities for you, but if you want to experience such possibilities, you must learn to face today with enthusiasm, optimism and hope. So many of us keep moving around with the sad and negative baggage of our past that we prevent ourselves from enjoying the beauty in each of the new day that we get into.

Look, you can actually enjoy you life if you can learn to not always take yesterday with you wherever you go. You can start afresh and make something meaningful of today. Don't allow your experience of yesterday steal your today and your life. Be on the driver's seat of your life and make your today an interesting one.

Do have a wonderful day!

Create A Moment To Enjoy Life

~1.0 mins read

sometimes, we so much concentrate on our future that we sometimes forget to take advantage of our present moments to give ourselves the best. Some of us are taking life too seriously and we have programmed our minds to believe that, it is only through such extreme seriousness that we can actually achieve our life's goals and dreams.

Look, life is not that complicated. Don't miss out on life because you're too serious chasing dreams. Create a balance and enjoy life. I have come across men that hardly create time for themselves to enjoy life. When you see them, all they talk about is business and projects and they are always on the move because they think that life is all about achieving goals and dreams.

It's good to go after your goals and dreams, but don't make them stop you from also enjoying life. Sometimes, just create a moment for yourself to give yourself a good treat. A great life is not just all about dream achievement but also about how well it's been lived. Don't deprive your life what it needs and wear yourself out because you want to achieve one goal or dream.

Create a balance in your life and give yourself a good treat once in a while because that is one of the things that you'll look back at tomorrow and say you actually lived a great life.

Why You Must Build Good Relationship With Your Kids Now

~2.1 mins read

Do you know that every parent has a very limited time to influence their kids positively?

About three days ago I called my daughter "my little angel" and she smiled and responded "dad, I'm still your angel but I'm no longer little". I laughed and told her that she'll always be my little angel irrespective of how grown she's become because she's my baby and she'll always be my baby...

The kid I was talking about is just 13 years old, though she has the physique of a 16 years old. These kids sometimes grow very fast that one begins to wonder if they are being fed daily with growth hormones. My little daughter of yesterday is now telling me: her dad, that she's no longer little. Imagine if i had failed to bond with her, guide her aright and build a good relationship with her when she was little, how would our relationship be now that she's now considering herself to be a big girl?

She may probably start resisting my instructions and good gestures for her because she wouldn't feel any special bond with me. As a parent, when you fail to bond with your kids and build a strong and cordial relationship with them when they are little, you're positioning yourself to be resisted by such kids when they start thinking that they are grown up enough to start making their own decisions.

Someone once said that: "it is how you bond, guide and relate with your kids when they are little that would determine how such kids would relate with you when they think they've come of age to have their own say". Relationship building with our kids is one vital aspect of parenting that we should never neglect as parents and we have very limited time to do that because the kids seem to be growing very fast.

Some of us consider ourselves to be great parents because we are meeteting our kids needs, while the kids may be thinking otherwise. Kids know when you're not giving them priority and it really makes them mad that they might start doing things to get back at you when they think that they have come of age. Aside directing your kids, guiding them aright and investing in their future, it is how you bond and relate with them that creates the fondest memories in the kids, and such bond is hardly broken even after the kids might have left home and have started their own families.

Relationship building with the kids should be the focal point of parenting because it influences how the kids would respond to your guidance, instructions and directions. Your kids may forget all the money you invested in them but they would never forget how you made them feel by being there for them and building a special connection with them. So it's in your best interest as a parent to start developing a loving and special bond with your kids because you have a very limited time to do that and that time is already counting very fast.
