Always Prepared!!!

 1 Samuel  17:26 "David asked some soldiers standing nearby, ''what will a man get for killing this Philistine and stop him from insulting our people?''..." (CEV)


"What will a man get for killing this Philistine?", a question every man on the field wanted to ask, but only one man could. I heard a man say yesterday " opportunities don't come until you come", I was like "bang"!😅 . I draw inspiration not just from the anointing that worked in David prior to his defeating Goliath but on the process he had gone through. David was always a prepared man. I think we all focus on the anointing that worked in him before he killed Goliath than his attitude of being "always prepared". A man who was always ready to kill anything that came his way to harm needed no nudge to fight a Giant, I reckon David didn't go out against the Giant because He felt he had been anointed, He went out against the Giant because He was always prepared to bring down obstacles. Sometimes, what's needed isn't  "anointing" but audacity that comes from the room of process and preparation. You must be mentally prepared always to achieve. Some times, I see people labouring so much in prayer over things preparation and audacity should bring, am I against prayer? Of course not, but prayer doesn't change anything until there is a decision to act from you. You must be prepared always to embrace opportunities. Be a reflex actor!.Take numerous actions this week. Do have a fruitful week ahead.🙋🏻‍

Apostle Peter- Running 1

A blend of Bible stories, revelations and fiction (literature license) about Peter's life and somewhat complex choices and decisions. Sit back, relax, cappuccino and enjoy! And Peter was running again, away from the persecution that had once again broken out against the Church. Jesus had been long gone. He missed Him. He still had nostalgia and goose bumps whenever he remembered just how divine Jesus was. He had seen Jesus do a lot of amazing miracles but none quite like the last one- he and his other folks, some 50 of them watched as Jesus levitated into the heavens until no physical eyes could see him again. He said He was going to heaven and of course that was true- Peter knew now by deep conviction that he'd walked with God Himself. And for some reason he thought himself a friend of God. He knew he was going to see Jesus again sometime soon. There was no debate in his heart about this. He loved Jesus or perhaps God- they were one and the same persons to him now. He

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

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
