Honor Parents

 Exodus  20:12 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.


Parents are the  greatest asset anyone could  ever have. They are the first trainers a child has by default, they show a child the way, bringing up that child in the way that child should go, though we have parents who neglect bringing up their child rightly or not even being there for the child at all, however, the role of a good parent is to bring up a child, and that role is best done by a parent. So good parents train up their children, they make sacrifices for their children, they give all so that their children can stand tall, and when you have parents who do this, a child who doesn't honor them is automatically set for a curse. God in His admonition to the Israelites said "Honor thy father and mother :that thy days may be long upon the land..."  This is the first commandment God gave, even with a promise. Honoring parents is so important if you must have a good future, so many people fail in raising their own children because they failed honoring their own parents. Parents must be honored and respected no matter the age or stage you as a child get to in life. 

  Take out time today to reflect on how you've had your relationship with your parents and seek to even do more for them. They are God's blessing to you, and you're God's blessing to them. Do have a great day 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...

PLB Foundation: Benue Flood Victims Donations

www.theinnercitymission.ngo/donate This isn't a season of hurricanes floods and natural disasters, nope, it's not. This is a season of love, a season where our affections must be compelled enough to help those in need of our help. A season where devastation meets an overwhelming force of love ❤ and help. This is not the season to stand quiet and watch "others" do the helping. It's a season for us (you and me) to be the saviours in others lives and show them that God loves and cares for them. We preach the gospel of Jesus but no one preached it better than Jesus Himself who went about doing good and helping people get out of their problems and predicaments. The PLB is glad to announce to you that we're now in Partnership with www.theinnercitymission.ngo/donate . So, you can give financially to help people who've lost loved ones, properties, and means of income. www.theinnercitymission.ngo is a world renowned charity organisation under t...
