#1 WHY SIT HERE TILL YOU DIE?

-

 



"No man ever rise in life by riding on wishes - you want to make impact in life, you've got to rise and challenge your challenges."

Many have always been building their lives on hope without making any move toward change. In as much as hope is a good virtue, remember faith supercede hope; and of faith was it said that, "faith without work is dead", which means for faith itself to produce result, work must be in the right place, so I wonder what magic is out there that will respond to the wishes of a man who just want a ready made platform to ride on.

We can't just be sitting in idleness and thoughtlessness and want things to turn out well. 

You've got to think out wide and put the hands to work on ideas gotten. 

Of a truth, it is being said that "no one is born with a silver spoon," but believe me, if there are people who you've found with a silver spoon, they labour for it, they broke the edge and rode on those things that pose before them as limitations and challenges.

STIR UP THE MIND; DIRTY THE FINGERS; AND STAND BEFORE KINGS.

How long I've also been sitting as well, always wishing that the good time would show without putting my being into action. Now, I know I must arise from the midst of the dust and challenge my challenges for me to reach my maximum height of impact.

No more expecting men to randomly come to my aid without me having a well-built virtue they can't ignore 

When opportunity meets virtues, the road to stardom is inevitable.

Why sit you here till you die?

Nothing remarkable or capable of growth will come to someone who offers nothing in return. If you entrust a lively venture to someone without ambition, they'll likely drain its vitality and render it useless.

Lastly, I read that "some people are so lazy—they reach for food on the plate but lack the will to bring it up to their mouths." (Prov 19:24 -VOICE).

Such individuals lack the strength to improve their own lives, yet somehow find the energy to dig their own graves.

Will you still keep sitting there wishing and wishing for what is not going to come without you making a move?

Just try to take an action on that idea or thought that has been flipping through your mind, and expect a big boom of positive upturn.

PRESSING ON OR PRESSED DOWN.

   Life is full of "hila-hilos" — ups and downs, and we're responsible for whatever we make out of these seasons. We're encouraged when things are working out according to our plans and discouraged when things happen otherwise. These are normal responses to life situations, but the big matter is how we respond when things are odd.      In seasons when we have a lot against us; opposition, challenges, hard times and others, this is when our real person is put to the test and revealed, and we're the sole determinant of what the outcome of this season will be.   We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed.  2 Corin 4:8,9(NKJV)      We can decide if in our troubles and hard times we will allow ourselves to be PRESSED DOWN — discouraged, disappointed and lose hope, or we PRESS ON — keep hope alive and use the rubble to build something be...

LIFE RACE.

-
Image
        A ll that surrounds the survival of humanity pushes us into running even without knowing what's setting us on a race, nor do we know how to run effectively, nor the end to which we're running. All we know is that we must run. Humanity in different phases of life is constantly being set in a race by different factors, which include: parents' desires, society, the educational system, and peer pressure, to mention but a few, and there seems to be no end to this frantic race.    Have you ever asked yourself these questions before:    • Why am I running?    • Where am I heading?    • How do I run effectively?    If you can't adequately provide substantial answers to those questions, you're at the mercy of the pressures posed to you by the factors listed above.           WHY AM I RUNNING?    I'm running because I know there's a vision before me. Write down this vision. Write it cle...

LEADING AND BLEEDING.

  L eadership is a great responsibility that only those who have given themselves to be rightly prepared are truly fit to take up the task; hence, it's not a position for frivolity. We know there are various leaders, but here my references are to true leaders. Leaders doesn't emerge over the night, they've gone through building processes over the years through which they've had series of tearing and mending, rejection and acceptance, discouragement and upliftment, tears and happiness, agony and relief, yet they kept the focus in their hearts knowing the scars at each checkpoint is a healing balm to those following.   Leaders are not self-centred, such that even in their downtime, they find courage to strengthen the feeble knees.  They go all out with so much compassion and intentionality, with no sense of gain to attend to as many in need of help. These are the ones whose paths are blood-marked, yet with consistency, have been proven by endurance and perseverance. They...
