Response-ability

 Luke  12:48 "...For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more."

 Did you ever watch "Spider-Man"?. A line in that classic that mostly rings in the mind of anyone conversant with the movie is the line, "...with great power comes great responsibility". This is truth. Even the Bible attests to this. 
Ability leads to responsibility, responsibility calls for action. Whatever " edge" you have over others in a particular course is for you to be a blessing to them. I saw somewhere where someone said even the Bible says "mind your business", I laughed so hard. You know, people oftentimes could try to " validate" whatever they feel or want to believe with places in the Bible they take out of context, I was once that way😅. Minding your business never has anything to do with not helping  otherso when you are to. Until you have the care of others at heart, you will never eat the fruits of humanity. God set the world on a system, you must give to have, you must be a blessing to others to be blessed. 

You must answer the call of responsibility. Any gift not harnessed with responsibility is a waste. You must use what you have to help. Do not just cross a road and see a child who has no one to help cross, and you act "blind", oh no! There is always something your ability has to contribute to the world daily.  Stay Responsibe!🙂

  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...
