Be sensitive

 John  4:10 Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.


The above text is the popular story of  the occurrence between Jesus and the Samaritan woman. So much to draw from this occurrence, but amidst all that can be drawn is the fact that God Almighty was with this woman face to face, and yet she didn't know. This woman had so many questions to ask God, she told Jesus this. John  4:25 "The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things."   Amazing! She had questions for God, but she never knew she was talking with God. This still happens to most people, sometimes you get answers to your inner cravings not by what  or how you expect. We must be sensitive to answers to our prayers, sometimes answers may come not by how we expect but another way, we must be flexible in our minds to detect answers not the means by which they come. This woman was quite insensitive in as much as how Jesus gave her details about who was speaking with her, Jesus had to tell  her "...if you know who speaks to you".

  In your business, in as much as you pray for customers and patronizers, you should be sensitive to welcome those who come to you for directions, not every customer comes directly to buy things from you, you could be of help to someone and that same person becomes your biggest customer! Some have lost  potential rich customers all to the fact they never considered such a person worthy of their attention. Be sensitive. God answers prayers, you're to position yourself for the answer(s) by being sensitive. Do have a great weekend ahead

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...

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...

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...
