Diligence

Proverbs  22:29  "Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men."

Someone once said, "Talent brings you before people, diligence brings you before kings", how true I agreed with her. Diligence is focus and putting in of hardwork to your work. The scripture above tells the reward of Diligence. Diligence makes you important. It makes you recognized for something. The challenge with the present generation is " Fast ", everything comes Fast, from Fast foods to Fast cars to Fast schools/classes to Fast houses, the list becomes endless. Even most Youths don't want to labour but get rich quick, but you can never substitute any formula for Diligence. Diligence is God's will for you, God has created every man a success but Diligence comes with the package. Every great man ever recorded used by God in the Bible was Diligent. Perhaps you've been Diligent about your work, visions and you're almost discouraged, I implore you, please don't be, God is true to His word, your Diligence would definitely pay off soon, keep working at it, the Bible says " if the clouds be full of rain, they empty themselves... "(Ecc11:3). Keep saturating your clouds with Diligence!!!...Have a diligent week!

  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...
