In "THOUGHTAL" Control

 2 Corinthians  10:5 "Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ"

"Thoughts are pictures of the mind with constructive or destructive possibilities which have power with the emotions"- Pastor Chris Oyakhilome


You know, thoughts are so powerful. A Man's day can be ruined with a thought, even if the thought wasn't true. For instance, if you were a student, and a classmate of yours' came in and said, he just saw a result of yours' which you had an 'F', funny enough, even though if that classmate came to lie to you, that information already creates a thought of a 'carry-over' for you, EVEN IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE RESULT. You most likely might have a gloomy day with such NEWS. Friend, the scripture above tells you what to do with such thoughts, every thought that doesn't bring glory to you and God must be brought to subjection to Christ. God hasn't designed shame and ignominy for you in any way, whenever thoughts of pain, shame, fear tend to creep in to mess up your day, you bring them into subjection to the obedience of Christ. Christ is a place of glory, beauty, honor. You must reject those thoughts with words of affirmation of what Christ has done for you. You fight thoughts with words, words of affirmation of what you have in Christ. Be in complete control of your day at any time. Give no negative thought control over your day at anytime.In addition, in "the battle of the mind", stay above only, in total control!. Make your thoughts, and let the right ones define you.

PLB Editorial- Cheers 🍻 to life!

Jesus, while speaking to listeners in John 6 talked of them eating his flesh and drinking his blood and how this would forever quench their hunger and thirst. Most of the people who heard this couldn't receive it, it seemed as if Jesus was trying to initiate them into some cult where they'd all be required to be cannibals. Yet Jesus, unapologetic as He always was didn't even try to break it down to their understanding, instead He said "those who hear and learn from my Father come to me". On that day some of His disciples left Him, citing how His teaching and doctrine was too controversial and hard to take. Howbeit none from the popular 12 left. Fast forward to 1Corinthians11:24 and Paul is reiterating the events of the Jesus' last supper with His disciples as He received it from God. Jesus used those words again "this is my body" and "this is the cup of the new testament in my blood" and required of us to break and eat and also to drink. ...

Going on to know Him

People easily judge other people when they don't know them. We all may be guilty of this. A Lotta times, we stereotype people by how they look, their dressing and outward mannerisms ever before we hear them speak. I have been shocked many times of how guilty I've been with this. The most recent of such a person I nearly badly stereotyped turned out to be such an incredible person, so different and special in her way and she helped me in many beautiful ways such that we became pretty cool friends in the space of just a few months but this was the same lady I almost thought was way away from my type of friends. We've all made such mistakes so don't look at me that way😶😇. When we were done with the project that brought us together, I offered to take us to an icecream spot- it would probably be the last time we were seeing so it was my way of saying "thanks". There I told her how I had felt about her when I first saw her and she was somewhat unsurprised and sa...
