Eat before leaving😀

1 Kings 19:7 "And the angel of the LORD came again the second time, and touched him, and said, Arise and eat; because the journey is too great for thee."

Strength is as important as a journey. No matter how eager you are to complete a task, the ability to start and go through any task with enough strength is always important. Many people have delved into things a lot without first sitting to muster much strength(spiritual/physical/mental acumen). The scripture above is such a profound story of the task Elijah was about to face, but the most important thing is An Angel coming to give him food, telling him to eat because the journey was far. Come to think of it, this was God giving Elijah this journey, yet God had to tell him to eat, couldn't God supernaturally sustain him along the way as long as it was God who sent him on this journey?, yet God told him to eat, in fact, the Angel had to tell Elijah twice to eat, Elijah must have been so eager to start as so many people do😀. Friend, no matter how 'God-given' a vision is, until you "eat" (gather enough spiritual/physical/mental strength) you might start but most likely not be able to finish. Eat before you start, and if you've started and are tired. Rest and Eat😀

Do have a great week ahead😀

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...

PLB Editorial- Confessions 201

Just a few words... James 3:2-3(Amplified translation) For we all often stumble and fall and offend in many things. And if anyone does not offend in speech [never says the wrong things], he is a fully developed character and a perfect man, able to control his whole body and to curb his entire nature. If we set bits in the horses' mouths to make them obey us, we can turn their whole bodies about. We must never disesteem the power of words, we can steer our lives (our entire course of existence) in the direction we choose with our words. The Scripture above claims that if (and it's possible) we can master our tongue (master words), then we are a perfect and fully developed spiritual entity able to determine the circumstances and results of our being. Mehn! Use words rightly on yourself and others and watch your life beam with incredible supernatural radiance. You can proclaim the words below: I live a supernatural life everyday I am in the class of almighty G...

Taking the Virtual edge

Psalms 133:1 "Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!" 133:2 "It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;" The beauty of Christianity is in fellowship. Well, due to certain 'developments' around the globe, there's been restrictions on public gatherings, however, this should never put an embargo on fellowshipping with one another as Christians. I've often thought to myself, the internet came at the very right time, the internet is for the advantage of believers. Now, with the internet, we can reach much more people with the glorious gospel of Jesus Christ. Some people, otherwise who wouldn't have come to Church physically might most definitely stumble on a Christian event online and then believe in Jesus. I heard of a lady who didn't go to Church because she was of a different religion and being afr...
