"I LOVE LIFE!"

1 Peter 3:10-11 For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile: Let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it.

Don't you just love the phrase "love life"? You see, I love to wake up in the morning and go to bed at night saying words like "I love life!" I love to enjoy my days, I love to look back at the day, week, month, year etc and say "mahn I love my life!" In short, I love to enjoy life to its fullest! I love to love life!

This mentality has always been with me. When I made the decision in 2008 to live for Christ, I remember praying one of days and saying to God, "Lord, you know I love fun, I'm fun personified, please this journey of faith has got to be really fun!" You see I didn't know then that God was the King of enjoyment and fun! Jesus said in John 10:10(Amplified translation), The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows).
No one who lives an authentic Christian life should be bored or live a boring 😴 life. He brings beautiful colours 🎨and blessings into your life!

When God calls someone, He usually promises them something bigger, better and way more exciting than what they had ever wanted or imagined for themselves. To Abraham He said, "I'm going to bless you and make you a blessing, the whole world will be blessed by you!" Genesis12:2-3. And not only that, He said to him also "you're gonna have a son despite you and your wife's old age" Genesis15:4. Now, Abraham wasn't a broke man when God met Him, he was doing good in his business and was getting ready to pass it on to the next generation of faithful servants because He was getting old and didn't have a child of his own. Yet God was telling Him these exciting things would happen in His already well advanced age of 75 not minding his age or previous achievements in life.

God told him that he'd achieve things that would normally take a whole lifetime to achieve in just a few years and those things happened! Every one of the things God told him would happen happened cause Abraham dared to believe God!

Do you want to enjoy your life in 2018 and have fun every single day fulfilling God's purposes in your life? Use the opening Scripture as your guide.
1 Peter 3:10-11(The Message Translation) Whoever wants to embrace life and see the day fill up with good, Here's what you do: Say nothing evil or hurtful; Snub evil and cultivate good; run after peace for all you're worth.

Enjoying one's life is pretty simple right? First it says, "don't say evil or hurtful things". Don't talk evil about yourself or others and don't use hurtful words on others either. Practice using loving, kind, uplifting and wholesome words only, on everyone including yourself.

Secondly, it says to snub evil but rather cultivate and ensure peace. Don't listen to bad advice that try to tell you there's gain in doing bad things. Snub such advice and don't pick up fights and quarrels and disagreements either. Don't allow jealousy, hatred, envy, anger, bitterness any where around you. Get rid of bad vibes and keep em out of your world. Always turn the table and insist on good and peace and joy and blessings in your world and you'll be amazed how beautifully the year would turn out!
Have a lovely year of 2018!!!

Priority information

  Proverbs  16:3 Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established. Most people tell others about their plans first even before they remember to tell God". It's so true, I've found out most times people have opinions, but God never has an opinion, God has direction. People have opinions, God has direction. While speaking with a friend yesterday, she recalled how some people had tried to talk her down/out from doing something, and I felt well, people always have opinions, and like David Ologbonori, a life-coach posited, " Opinions are cheap, they are everywhere, and they can be wrong". While I thought about the fact that sometimes people tell others about their plans before God, I thought to myself "why should a man inform others about what he wants to do even before the waymaker Himself?"😏. This doesn't mean you can't talk to "destiny-helpers", or " dreams investors ", but it has to do with who you give p...

The Noble

Who is a noble person? Through Scripture references and inferences we'll embark on a journey that seeks to define and show us who God deems to be a noble person and why being one is an absolute no brainer, especially in this present noble-starved age. Pls note- the opinions presented in this article are derivations from the Scriptures and not a carnal fabrication or mere mental or cultural estimation of the author. You can look em up yourself to confirm the assertions and/or suggestions. The term noble/nobleman appears 40 times in the King James version of the Bible but it was first used in Exodus24:11 to describe certain "elders" who were to work alongside Moses in leading, guiding and directing the people of Israel according to the desires of God. Point to note is they were "leaders" and men of high repute often in the classification of princes and rulers over other people. So, if you're over anyone in leadership you're actually a noble save t...

Peace, Soundness of Mind

  2 Timothy  1:7 "For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. " I'm a firm believer that one of the most vital if not the most vital aspect of the human health is the mental health. Its so important to have a mind that's put together. A lot of times, there are challenges that come our way which test our mental capacity and strength, some times they are quite overwhelming, making it seem like we just need to go somewhere solitary to have a "cool off", however the scriptures promises something quite lovely. God says to those who accept Him in their lives, He has given "... a sound mind" , the phrase "sound mind" is translated from the Greek word "Sophronismos", which means " a mental state well balanced with accurate judgement". This is the kind of mind you have in Christ. A mind configured to make accurate and sound judgement, a mind that's in the rest of God. Most i...
