METAPHYSICS OF A SPIRITUAL WORLD

I heard someone say that "Law, not confusion, is the dominating principle in the universe; justice, not injustice, is the soul and substance of life", then this is what he meant: Immediate satisfaction is one thing while the aftermath circumstance is another, since conscience never lies, you will always feel the guilt that lies beneath any evil experience which would rather result to constant sadness and personal onslaught, you would become unconsciously wicked to human and other things still worsening the condition. Hence what one does at some point in time that is morally wrong can fetch him/her immediate satisfaction at that time but the aftermath repercussion will always give him/her something to regret when remembered and since we are power being hardwired with memories the incessant unsatisfaction will linger on unless their is personal conviction to turn away and become righteous or to continue to stifle the conscience with the evil deeds until it stopped speaking up, then that act of immorality will be an addiction you can't break; And since righteousness, not corruption, is the molding and moving force in the spiritual government of the world. Man has to be right himself to find that the universe is right. And during the process of putting himself right, he will find that as he alters his thoughts towards becoming morally upright, he will become happy and people will favour him in every turn he makes. His dreams and aspiration becomes clearer and aid will come from every direction to attain it, this process will become effective if he has a belief system that gives the direction. I suggest you open a spiritual bank account with Christ consciousness and your deposit of equity will earn you absolute peace of mind, favor, blessings and increase in eternal glory which would be progressive; this is the process when the bible say "lay up a foundation in heaven where rust and rut will not have effect on them". Your account is being carried over from generation to generation who will enjoy your reward you earn still on.

BE A TRUE FRIEND

• By Sarah Mechane: 

 Hushai was a friend of David, during Absalom's rebellion to his father king David, he agrees to act as an advisor to Absalom to sabotage his plans while secretly sending information to David. It was on his advice that Absalom did not immediately pursue the retreating David, thus giving David time to re-group and gather his forces, Hushai's advice helped to ensure Absalom's rapid defeat. "So Hushai said to Absalom; the advice that Ahithophel has given is not good at this time......you know your father and his men, that they are mighty men.....and your father is a man of war and will not camp with the people...... For all Israel knows that your father is a mighty man and those who are with him are valiant men" 2 Samuel 17:5-10 NKJV Bible. Hushai referred to the David of the past, even though he saw David with his own eyes, that he was not strong and mighty to battle with Absalom. He hoped that Absalom would vividly remember the David of the past a man of war and Hushai tried to save his friend David from the hands of his son Absalom. He was a true friend indeed. So this morning JESUS is addressing the Body of Christ and asking, are you a true friend to defend the kingdom of GOD with the gospel in times of trouble? Are you a true friend to stand in time of calamity, adversity, pain and sorrow to your fellow brethren in the church? Are you a true friend of JESUS CHRIST to stay righteous and holy till the end? Are you a true friend to your wife/husband? Are you a true friend to your family, your children, friends, your neighbour, your colleagues? etc. Are you a true friend in the society? Can people rely on you? For it is written, "A friend loves at all times and a brother is born for a time of adversity" Prov.17:17 NIV Bible. Hushai proved to be a friend at all times and a brother in time of adversity to David, can you also be brother in time of adversity to your fellow Christian Brethren? However Hushai advised Absalom to raise a huge army and get David in person, so he said "Therefore I advise that all Israel be fully gathered to you, from Dan to Beersheba, like the sand that is by the sea for multitude and that you go to battle in person" 2 Samuel 17:11 NKJV Bible. Hushai not only wanted to defeat the counsel of Ahithophel, he also wanted to do whatever he could to buy David more time before the inevitable attack comes. Hushai's point was that it was too risky to attack David immediately, he just wanted his friend to escape and he did so by sending Zadok and Abiathar the priests to inform David to escape. Therefore, "One who has unreliable friends soon comes to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother" "Share each other's troubles and problems and so obey our LORD'S command" JESUS CHRIST is that friend who sticks closer than a brother, be HIS friend and be HIS true friend, says the HOLY-SPIRIT, Prov.18:24 NIV Bible.

RAPTURE SIGNS: ENDTIME IS NOW

By Oluwatola Toluwani Ifeoluwa:

 I effortlessly laboured to keep the thoughts off my heart as I watched international news yester night. All the news headlines across various stations reechoed in my heart THE IMMINENT END OF THE WORLD: RAPTURE. From Gaza to Donetsk, Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan and our own Nigeria, the world is experiencing unprecedented violence like never before. Peace appears to have evaded the world and there seem to be no hope of return to normalcy. This reminded me of what the Lord Jesus said to his disciples asked him when the end of times shall be: "And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows. But take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in the synagogues ye shall be beaten: and ye shall be brought before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them." Mark 13:7-9. In a moment, the trumpet shall sound and the fearful and dreadful tribulation will be unleashed when the remnants will be required to pay for their salvation with their blood, may we not be partakers of such! Concluding with the words of the author of Hebrews: "Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it". 8 hrs · Friends of Friends

RECEIVE ADVERSITY IN HUMILITY

By Serah Mechane:

 Shimei was a distant relative of the former King Saul and he resented David for replacing the dynasty of Saul. Shimei had this heart against David for a long time, but he could only show it when David was down and out, running away from his son Absalom, Shimei "Came out, cursing continuously as he came. And he threw stones at David and at all the servants of King David. And all the people and all the mighty men were on his right hand and on his left. Also Shimei said thus when he cursed: Come out! Come out! You bloodthirsty man, you rogue! The LORD has brought upon you all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose place you have reigned.........." 2 Samuel 16:6-8 NKJV Bible. Shimei was wrong in his accusations to David, because David actually treated Saul and his family with great love and graciousness and none of this came upon David was because of what he did to Saul or Saul's family. There are always people like Shimei who are ready to rejoice when a leader falls. So this morning JESUS is addressing someone out there that, when you face adversity receive it in humility, let people rejoice over your downfall, let them criticize you, let them analyze you, let them say all sorts of things to you, insult you, receive all in humility, etc. because the Bible says; "If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small" Prov.24:10 KJV Bible. Persecution will come, adversity will come, pain and suffering will come, but hold your peace, because "We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed" 2 Cor.4:8-9 KJV Bible. Shimei could not destroy David even though he was down, so hold your peace. Nevertheless, the mighty men surrounding David were more than ready to kill Shimei in an instant. "Zeruiah said to the king, Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? Please, let me go over and take off his head" 2 Samuel 16:9 NKJV Bible. David could take this fellow's head off in a moment and yet he said, "Let him alone. Let him curse" verse 11. And this makes a splendid example, for if you can revenge yourself, DON'T, if you could do it as easily as open your hand, keep it shut, if one bitter word could end the argument, ask for grace to spare that bitter word. David didn't try to shut up Shimei, he didn't close his ears to unpleasant or critical words. David was willing to hear what GOD might say to him through a cursing critic, David let Shimei speak because he was not a bloodthirsty man. Ironically, if David was the kind of man Shimei said he was, Shimei would be dead, so be like David who received adversity in humility. Therefore "The GOD of all grace, Who hath called us unto HIS eternal glory by CHRIST JESUS, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, establish, strengthen, settle you" says the HOLY SPIRIT, 1 Peter 5:10 KJV Bible.

PRESIDENT OBAMA A THREAT TO CHRISTIAN BELIEF WITH THE LGBT NEW OTHER

President Obama has come under fire for forcing all federal contractors to conform to the administration’s view on sexuality through a so-called ‘anti-discrimination’ executive order. On Monday, the US president signed the order, which prevents federal contractors from discriminating against people who identify as LGBT, but does not exempt faith-based organisations. President Obama had received a letter signed by 14 people including a leading pastor, the executive editor of a Christian magazine and the head of a large Roman Catholic charity, urging him to exclude faith-based organisations from the order. Balance The letter argued that this is necessary in order to protect “religious organisations that seek to serve in accordance with their faith and values”. The executive order adds “sexual orientation” and “gender identity” to an order from 1965 which prohibits discrimination on non-controversial grounds. Alliance Defending Freedom, a non-profit religious liberty organisation, called the executive order “overreaching”. Threat Senior Counsel Kristen Waggoner said it shows that the Government is “now the primary threat to religious freedom”. “The administration has brazenly bypassed Congress and declared that the only religious non-profit organizations it will do business with are those willing to line up with the administration’s doctrine and theology on sexual behaviour”, she said. And the President of the National Organization for Marriage, Brian Brown, warned that the “non-discrimination rules like the order issued by President Obama can become a weapon used to punish and harass individuals and groups who support marriage as the union of one man and one woman”. Values He said, “President Obama’s order has the great potential of putting employers in the position of standing up for their faith values or violating the new order. “This will unnecessarily subject people of faith to harassing complaints and lawsuits”. The US Supreme Court recently ruled in favour of a Christian-run business that did not want to provide health insurance covering abortion-inducing drugs. Principles Hobby Lobby – which has over 600 arts and crafts stores across 47 US states – said the decision allows them to continue operating “according to our principles”. In the UK, a judge who rejected an appeal by Christian B&B owners over their double bed policy has questioned whether the law could better accommodate religious conscience. Lady Hale, Deputy President of the Supreme Court, said the law needs to work out “how far it should allow for a ‘conscience clause’” for service providers or employees. Source: The Christian.org.uk

BEWARE OF LUSTFUL LOOK

By Serah Mechane. King David was one of the great kings in Israel, a man after GOD'S own heart, a man full of compassion, a man with love for his people, a man with the zeal to accomplish the work of GOD in his life, a dedicated king, a praise and worship icon for the LORD, etc. failed because of his lack of romantic restraint and an indulgence of his sexual passions. King David committed adultery with another man's wife, the Bible says, "Then it happened one evening that David arose from his bed and walked on the roof of the king’s house. And from the roof he saw a woman bathing and the woman was very beautiful to behold" 2 Samuel 11:2 NKJV Bible. David inquire of the woman, he lay with her, impregnated her and later killed her husband Uriah. Though the woman who was later called by the name Bathsheba acted immodestly, because she certainly knew that her bath was visible from the roof of the palace, her immodesty was not an excuse for David’s sin, but she was still responsible for her wrong. So this morning JESUS is addressing the Body of Christ that we should beware of lustful look, beware of conceiving long lasted sin in your heart, beware women of immodesty in dressing because it makes a lot of men to fall into sin, beware how you copy the lifestyle of the world into the church for it only leads to sin, beware of immorality, murder, adultery/fornication, etc. for the road path of sin is destruction, so beware not to fall into sin. Nevertheless David should have been out at the battle but he remained behind, customs and experience showed that GOD told David, "You need to be at the battle", but David remained at Jerusalem. If David had his attention where GOD wanted it, he would never put it where GOD didn’t want it. While Joab was busy in laying siege to Rabbah, satan was also busy laying siege to David and sooner prevailed through lustful look. David lacked the principle of Gal.5:16 which say "Walk in the Spirit and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh". JESUS is saying, "Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body" 1 Cor.6:18, NKJV Bible. Be like Joseph who was severely tempted to commit sexual immorality than David was, but he fled the temptation. So when David looked at Bathsheba and said beauty, GOD saw it as ugly. The pleasures of sin deceive us like the bait hides the hook, we must call it what GOD calls it sin. We want to say, affair but GOD says adultery, we want to say, love but GOD says lust, we want to say sexy but GOD says sin, we want to say, romantic but GOD says ruin, we want to say, destiny but GOD says destruction. Therefore speak like Job; "I made a covenant with my eyes not to look lustfully at a young woman". Abstain from sexual sin, Says the HOLY-SPIRIT; Job 31:1, NIV Bible. Shalom and free to share.

TEN SIMPLE TRUTHS SMART PEOPLE NEGLECT

Some of the smartest people I know continuously struggle to get ahead because they forget to address a few simple truths that collectively govern our potential to make progress. So here’s a quick reminder: n our potential to make progress. So here’s a quick reminder: #1 – Education and intelligence accomplish nothing without action. It doesn’t matter if you have a genius IQ and a PhD in Quantum Physics, you can’t change anything or make any sort of real-world progress without taking action. There’s a huge difference between knowing how to do something and actually doing it. Knowledge and intelligence are both useless without action. It’s as simple as that. For some practical guidance on taking action, I highly recommend The Now Habit . #2 – Happiness and success are two different things. I know an extremely savvy businesswoman who made almost a million dollars online last year. Every entrepreneur I know considers her to be wildly successful. But guess what? A few days ago, out of the blue, she told me that she’s depressed. Why? “I’m burnt out and lonely. I just haven’t taken enough time for myself lately,” she said. “Wow!” I thought. “One of the most successful people I know isn’t happy.” I also know a surfer who surfs almost all day, every day on the beach in front of our condo complex in San Diego. He’s one of the most lighthearted, optimistic guys I’ve ever met – always smiling from ear to ear. But he sleeps in a van he co-owns with another surfer and they both frequently panhandle tourists for money. So while I can’t deny that this man seems happy, I wouldn’t classify his life as a success story. “What will make me happy?” and “What will make me successful?” are two of the most important questions you can ask yourself. But they are two different questions. #3 – Everyone runs their own business. No matter how you make a living or who you think you work for, you only work for one person, yourself. The big question is: What are you selling, and to whom? Even when you have a full-time, salaried, ‘Corporate America’ position, you are still running your own business. You are selling one unit of your existence (an hour of your life) at a set price (the associated fraction of your salary) to a customer (your employer). So how can you simultaneously save your time and increase your profit? The answer is slightly different for everyone. But it’s an answer you should be seeking. The 4-Hour Workweek is a good read on this topic. #4 – Having too many choices interferes with decision making. Here in the 21st century where information moves at the speed of light and opportunities for innovation seem endless, we have an abundant array of choices when it comes to designing our lives and careers. But sadly, an abundance of choice often leads to indecision, confusion and inaction. Several business and marketing studies have shown that the more product choices a consumer is faced with, the less products they typically buy. After all, narrowing down the best product from a pool of three choices is certainly a lot easier than narrowing down the best product from a pool of three hundred choices. If the purchasing decision is tough to make, most people will just give up. So if you’re selling a product line, keep it simple. And if you’re trying to make a decision about something in your life, don’t waste all your time evaluating every last detail of every possible option. Choose something that you think will work and give it a shot. If it doesn’t work out, choose something else and keep pressing forward. #5 – All people possess dimensions of success and dimensions of failure. This point is somewhat related to point #2 on happiness and success, but it stands strong on its own as well… Trying to be perfect is a waste of time and energy. Perfection is an illusion. All people, even our idols, are multidimensional. Powerful business men, polished musicians, bestselling authors, and even our own parents all have dimensions of success and dimensions of failure present in their lives. Our successful dimensions usually encompass the things we spend the most time doing. We are successful in these dimensions because of our prolonged commitment to them. This is the part of our lives we want others to see – the successful part that holds our life’s work. It’s the notion of putting our best foot forward. It’s the public persona we envision as our personal legacy: “The Successful ABC” or “The Award Winning XYZ.” But behind whichever polished storyline we publically promote, there lies a multi-dimensional human being with a long list of unprofessed failures. Sometimes this person is a bad husband or wife. Sometimes this person laughs at the expense of others. And sometimes this person merely takes their eyes off the road and rear-ends the car in front of them. #6 – Every mistake you make is progress. Mistakes teach you important lessons. Every time you make one, you’re one step closer to your goal. The only mistake that can truly hurt you is choosing to do nothing simply because you’re too scared to make a mistake. So don’t hesitate – don’t doubt yourself In life, it’s rarely about getting a chance; it’s about taking a chance. You’ll never be 100% sure it will work, but you can always be 100% sure doing nothing won’t work. Most of the time you just have to go for it! And no matter how it turns out, it always ends up just the way it should be. Either you succeed or you learn something. Win-Win. Remember, if you never act, you will never know for sure, and you will be left standing in the same spot forever. #7 – People can be great at doing things they don’t like to do. Although I’m not suggesting that you choose a career or trade you dislike, I’ve heard way too many smart people say something like, “In order to be great at what you do, you have to like what you do.” This just isn’t true. A good friend of mine is a public accountant. He has told me on numerous occasions that he dislikes his job – “that it bores him to death.” But he frequently gets raises and promotions. At the age of 28, out of nearly a thousand Jr. Accountants in his division, he’s one of only two who were promoted to be Sr. Accountants this past year. Why? Because even though he doesn’t like doing it, he’s good at what he does. I could come up with dozens of other examples just like this, but I’ll spare you the details. Just realize that if someone dedicates enough time and attention to perfecting a skill or trade, they can be insanely good at doing something they don’t like to do. For an insightful read in this department, I highly recommend The Talent Code . #8 – The problems we have with others are typically more about us. Quite often, the problems we have with others – our spouse, parents, siblings, etc. – don’t really have much to do with them at all. Because many of the problems we think we have with them we subconsciously created in our own mind. Maybe they did something in the past that touched on one of our fears or insecurities. Or maybe they didn’t do something that we expected them to do. In either case, problems like these are not about the other person, they’re about us. And that’s okay. It simply means these little predicaments will be easier to solve. We are, after all, in charge of our own decisions. We get to decide whether we want to keep our head cluttered with events from the past, or instead open our minds to the positive realities unfolding in front of us. All we need is the willingness to look at things a little differently – letting go of ‘what was’ and ‘what should have been,’ and instead focusing our energy on ‘what is’ and ‘what could be possible.’ #9 – Emotional decisions are rarely good decisions. Decisions driven by heavy emotion are typically misguided reactions rather than educated judgments. These reactions are the byproduct of minimal amounts of conscious thought and primarily based on momentary ‘feelings’ instead of mindful awareness. The best advice here is simple: Don’t let your emotions trump your intelligence. Slow down and think things through before you make any life-changing decisions. #10 – You will never feel 100% ready when an opportunity arises. The number one thing I persistently see holding smart people back is their own reluctance to accept an opportunity simply because they don’t think they’re ready. In other words, they believe they require additional knowledge, skill, experience, etc. before they can aptly partake in the opportunity. Sadly, this is the kind of thinking that stifles personal growth. The truth is nobody ever feels 100% ready when an opportunity arises. Because most great opportunities in life force us to grow emotionally and intellectually. They force us to stretch ourselves and our comfort zones, which means we won’t feel totally comfortable at first. And when we don’t feel comfortable, we don’t feel ready. Just remember that significant moments of opportunity for personal growth and development will come and go throughout your lifetime. If you are looking to make positive changes in your life you will need to embrace these moments of opportunity even though you will never feel 100% ready for them. From Marc and Angel

WHAT THOUGHTFUL MEANS TO WIVES

May no gift be too small to give nor to simple to receive, which is wrapped. in thoughtfulness, and tied up in love” L.O. Baird. Women are wonderful creatures built into them are super-instinct that tells them if and if not you add in thoughtfulness into that Valentine, Christmas, and Birthday packages. Because they enjoy thoughtfulness more than that Mc-donald's, Mr Biggs, Chicken Republic strawberry ice creams they feel on top when they notice it, when you invest thoughtfulness it shows her you are not emotionally broke in her affairs, in fact you are wealthy enough to pay attention for her interests. So while getting your wife a gift bear in mind that she is not interested in that expensive car but rather in your care, the additional "e" means to her the "extra mile" you drove to satisfy her needs and wants with your thoughts. Though all homo-sapien dispose some amount of rationality both Men boost of having this great natural talent in large form. Your wife wants to see this talent in action as you express your love towards her. Society might have tagged value in quality and expensive things but to your wife, the more the thought you add into the present, the more valuable it becomes. Don't always forget to think outside the box, you may give a present in form of "your undivided attention", it may be a back rub, or waking so early to serve her breakfast while she'd still in bed.

THE AMAZING WIDOW

Once opon a time a widow mom leaves her house and goes to fetch water, leaving her only child asleep. On her return, she found a large crowd around her burning house. On the inside, her son is about to die in the fire. Throwing her bowl of water on the floor, and crying, she wants to get into the burning house to look for her son. Everyone keeps saying, "You're going to die too, fire is very great." Escaping from their hands, she enters the fire and wrapped her son in a blanket. The child, tight against her breast, is not touched by the fire. Mummy comes out severely burnt and is only narrowly saved; thanks to the care of the hospital, but she lives with scars and unrecognizable. Many years passed. The child, under the guidance of his mother, completed his studies and was appointed minister. He organized a party at his villa on his appointment, and invited all the dignitaries of the city and his friends. While they were in full party, noises were heard at the door of the entrance to the villa. The son was forced to go and resolve the situation. He found that the security officers were preventing his mother from joining the party. He had not invited her but she also wanted to join the party. Faced with this situation in front of his guests, he said tenderly to his mother: "Please, Mom, I would be ashamed to have you appear before my friends. We can discuss later. " And in secret, he ordered the security services to throw out his mother because of her scars ...❕ What inspires you in this story? This woman represents Jesus Christ who sacrificed himself for you and I. By James Adelaja.

DO NOT BECOME A PRIEST TO SOMEONE'S IDOLS

The Levitical priests were commissioned by GOD, separated unto GOD to serve HIM. The Levitical priesthood began with the tribe of Levi and proceeded through the sons of the family of Aaron, according to Num.18:1,8 and Exodus 28:1. The duties of the Levitical priesthood included:- (1) The teaching of the Law Lev.10:11, (2) Offering the sacrifices, Leviticus chapter 9. (3) Maintaining the Tabernacle and the Temple, Num.18:3. (4) Officiating in the Holy Place, Ex.30:7-10. (5) Inspecting ceremonially unclean persons, Leviticus chapters 13 and 14. (6) They adjudicated disputes, Deut.17:8-13. (7) They functioned as tax collectors, Num.18:21,26; Heb.7:5. In a nut-shell a priest is to be in a position of spiritual leadership, one who is call upon to direct himself and others, in the proper service of GOD. A priest must therefore be holy to his GOD for he presents offering to GOD, "He shall not defile himself, being a chief man among his people, to profane himself" Lev.21:4 KJV Bible. Nevertheless during the days of Judges, where GOD was taken for granted by the children of Israel, Micah made a graven image and took a Levite whose duty was to serve in the LORD’S Tabernacle and he made this Levite a priest over his idols; Judges 17:10-13. The bible says, "And Micah consecrated the Levite and the young man became his priest and was in the house of Micah". Judges 17:12 AMP. Bible. A priest of GOD accepted to serve idols, because of lust of wealth, money and prosperity. The bible says, "And Micah said to him, dwell with me and be to me a father and a priest, and I will give you ten pieces of silver each year, a suit of clothes and your living. So the Levite went in" Judges 17:10, AMP Bible. The priest abandon the duty of serving GOD because of money. Therefore this morning JESUS is telling HIS beloved priest, HIS servants in the vineyard, His children, etc. that we should not be a priest to anybody’s idol in the name of church empire, Prosperity and wealth idols, we should not be a priest of anybody’s pride and arrogant idols, we should not be a priest of anybody’s sexual lust and immorality idols, a priest to anybody’s lies and manipulation idols, don't be a priest to anybody's idol says JESUS because of money, etc. because; "But you are not like that, for you have been chosen by GOD Himself; you are priests of the King, you are holy and pure, you are GOD'S very own, all this so that you may show to others how GOD called you out of the darkness into HIS wonderful light" 1 Peter 2:9, The Living Bible. So be very careful with your priesthood as servants of GOD, what church you attend, because you mighty be attending a church that is serving idols instead of GOD. You are a priest and you carry the virtues and perfections of JESUS CHRIST, therefore, "Come out from them and be separate, says the LORD. Touch no unclean thing and I will receive you" 2 Cor.6:17 NIV Bible. Shalom and free to share. Culled from Loving Jesus facebook page written by Sarah Mechan

SHARPEN YOUR FAITH

I thought it wise to advice Christians to Cut out the shyness talk when delivering God's message, faith has to be bold, brave and courageous, that's how we win. Pen whatever u have to write in a way it can float around without the added pressure or the stringiest conditions on it. Say it to inspire, to edify, to lift up and to exalt God. Jesus loves me, what else? Let's motivate people to a course of action, that's how crusade are bourne. Jesus loves u; has nearly become a word the rest of the world don't want to hear, mostly because d people saying it are the freaks and the misfit of d society, better still they are the hypocrite, claiming to be Christians but doing every other act that invalidate their profession. Following empty religion and making it a compulsion for people to follow our empty rules is never going to work. Let's break away from d myth and live it d way it ought to be. We have to dust up our Bible and get our faith shining like d solid piece of gold that it is. Forward the message but be sure it is the right message, be sure it has what it really needs to have, if not take time to edit it to fit, getting a soul connected to God is well worth it.

ALL THINGS FOR GOOD

Interestingly enough, pain and suffering do not cause the greatest damage. Confusion is the major force that sheds the green leaves of our faith. Expectation dry the branches of our patience and the next thing will be our branch being cut off from the main tree. No matter how brillant you will be, you can never understand the ways of God. The right thing to do is to believe that all things works for your good as long as you are in Christ Jesus.

I-GOD

Its of truism that smart phones and other devices now come in different shapes and sizes, we now I-phone, I-Pad, I-Pod. These phone don't even know they are smart, you make it smart, we are crafted to be smart, we are gods and we can even do so much more, I think I have to show you that I as much as you are gods with references from the bible: From clear indications from (John 10:34) Jesus answered "it is written in your own law that God said "you are gods" and after God made the heaven and earth he gave man a chance to dominate all that He created(Gen 1:26) (Psalms 82:1-8) also justified that you and I are really gods here on earth, though the fall of man which brought spiritual death which made man to negate this reality, this also made man to venture into the worship of graven images,the sun, the stars and the moon, and also the worship of angels came to start (Psalms 97:7), all these things was crafted by man with a trucks of vain imaginations loaded by the devil who also fill the world with troubles and he also. Introduced fake means through which people of the world would get there problems solved with a greater price. Even John tried to worship the angel who showed him the hidden realities but the angel dissuaded him from doing that( Revelations 22:8-9). As gods we should behave like one, by gracefully forgiving others there wrongs,helping the needy most especially those in the house of God and basking in love we can attain it. I conclude with (Psalms 8:5) which assures man to be a little lower than God but most bible versions didn't figure this right. God bless you.

Where to find Better Love

This one goes to you and me whose relationship is a wreck, i know how disillusionment and bitterness rolled over you like a tidal wave yet your friends told you to get over it and return to the business of living. But you just can't agree to that because the pieces of your broken heart just can't fit in any longer. What a sweet love you once had, an affair that could sky rocket till infinite, infact, when it was rocking high you sincerely thought it would, but suddenly it came crashing. And now for the first time in many years, you are truly alone. The sobs make your heart skip beat and the vision of him looks crystal clear in your imagination. But It looks cold outside, the world had been plagued with snows of 'selfishness' and everyone is covering their beast nature with a sheep clothing. My friend, there is no one to trust better than God, He truly loves you and is waiting to embrace you with both arms and when He shall give you a gift of 'human love'... you will smile when you see him

And that thing can never be underestimated. We all have different believe, values, personality, background and ideas, and view stand point(Principles of life) these differences gives us a perceived differences which often results to conflicts As a potential conflict resolutor paramount to mind should be to resolute conflicts and reach settlement; and to keep violent and wasteful conflicts behind bars and never allow matters escalate. These are the possible ways to go about it:

 »Dialogue: This strategy is often a medium where people come to iron out there differences. At this conjuncture people take note of the other parties opinion and see the light from each others different point of view. We oftem judge people people and events based on assumptions but with dialogue the parties involved would talk and get each other clearly well. These requires an open mind. » Be Rational Create no room for sentiment, look beyond the fogs of perception and see the reality because the parties involved clouded with their false perception of the event which is contrary to reality, so understanding this truism will make you explicitly explain the reality to them without sentiment or prejudice. Show no preferences, give sound judgement based on concrete and sound information gathered. The mediator must be trusted and respected.

 » Seek Concialation:   Concialation is more like mediation but in this case another dimension is proferred to the parties involved. Another alternative is being given, for example, two people fighting over a shop might be offered yet another shop. For people disagreeing over an idea, yet another idea is offered.

 Impose Solution: in some cases, people are indifferent about issue and don't even have grounds or most times fail to accept the reality because of pride and would rather love imposition before they accept the resolution. As a conflict resolutor you need to separate individuals from the situation on ground, scrutinize the matter and know the psychological ground your clients are standing on before imposing a solution on them. »Recognise Emotions: A renouned psychologist recognised the fact that we are emotional creatures hence logically looking into facts directly I.e bring rational may not be adequate in resolving most conflicts because the percieved fact is being painted by emotions, so endeavor to empathize with them by seeing the situation the way the other person sees it before overwhelming them with suggested facts which would solve the conflict. »Think Critically and Be Creative: In resolving conflict, a person need to think beyond the box coupled with an application of creativity. Making people feel important might be an added advantage because people yearn to be praised so begin conflict resolution on a friendly note, show respect to their opinion and show some sincerity and never you argue, make them see you as a friend and not an enemy to avoid. Look for chance to settle the conflict and not fault seeking. Look at virtues and not exposing a person's faults and wrongs. »Talk About Your Own Mistakes/ Conflicts People want to see that the person resolving their conflict is not an alien but human who had had his/her own share of conflicts. Discuss your own issues and how it was resolved. They long to hear it »Be A Good Listener: Listen to them, give them your maximuim attention and don't show preferences to any one of them. Learn to Use Words: Words are the most creative device by humanity, almost everyone creates words out of the mind, use words that soothes pain and calm ranging enotions, not based on faults and criticism but rather select your words. Negotiate A Win Win Policy Make it a win win thing and everyone would be happy.

GRAND CONSPIRACY AGAINST THE JEWISH NATION. Our world may be going back to what happened in 1945 It all started some weeks back with the kidnap and subsequent murder of 3 Hebrew teens supposedly by their rival neighbors: The Palestinians and ever since then, attacks and reprisals has not ceased from both sides. The Israelis replied the murder with the kidnap and murder of a Palestinian teen (I am not supporting the revengeful action of the Israelis as it is against biblical injunctions). This action sparked global outcry against the Jewish nation and the international raged out condemnation against the Jews, as if the ISREALI3 aren't humans or the Palestinians have not drawn a battle line with that singular attack. A Palestine terrorist group based in Gaza has since the murder of the boy launched offensives against Israel by it's numerous rocket and missile strikes against the Jewish civilians. This prompted the Israeli government to ask the Palestine government to call Hamas to order but the latter obliged. Since the nation could not fold it's hands and watch, counter offensive measures targeted at Hamas started and ever since the media has been agog with news that Israel has been killing hundreds of Gazans. While I am not denying the fact that there have been civilian losses which would have been more on the part of the Palestinians, many countries of the world has shut their eyes against the fact that these people are harboring and shielding Hamas and it's artillery such that an attack on the militant group without civilian casualties is a mission impossible OR should the Israeli government fold it's hands as its citizens are being wiped off? Nonetheless, this crisis has opened my eyes to the grand conspiracy against the Jewish nation by the Western world and international media. America and its cohorts (with the exception of Putin's Russia) has been calling on the Israeli government to stop attacks and international media and social networks has been awash with different stories painting the Israelites as the devil and the Palestinians as saints. Anyway theirs matter least as they are but mortal beings, the blessing of the heavens has not ceased on the descendants of Abraham. It doesn't matter who is for or who is against Israel, as long as God is with ISRAEL, who can be against IT? GOD BLESS ISRAEL GOD BLESS JERUSALEM. Culled from Oluwa Ifeoluwa.

Your Donation Matters More

A man's Donation is of more value and importance than his Duration because a life of much duration with little or no donation is like a living dead, while a life of great donation even with little duration is living after death because such life style leaves obvious footprints and great legacy to make reference to. A life of donation is a life that adds value to the world with its potentials and talents during it's existence. Just the way every one of us adds to the population of the world, so is our existence expected to add value to our families, communities,local governments, states, countries and to the world at large.

Know it today that the world is not ready to discover any body but the world is waiting to celebrate any body who has been discovered regardless of whom the person was or were the person is coming from. So it is your duty and responsibility to discover yourself and then show it to the world, remember no body knows you better than you know yourself, so discover the real you in You. Untill you know your self the world will not recognise you, Untill you have a voice the world will not give you audience, untill you have something to offer, the world will not give you attention. So discover that seed of greatness in you, refine it by working on it and after that show it to the world, i mean Advertise it and you will be amaze seeing the world await at your door post because you've become rare. It all starts by discovering your self which is the best discovering of a life time and with that you will be able to add value to the world by your donation that will not be forgotten in a hurry.

Anyway as human we often feel as though we are not talented if we don't have any hard skills such as the ability to dance, sing, write, cook or play sports really well. We tend to forget about our soft skills, such as being good conversationalist, or extremely organized, which are just as important. Are you easy to talk to?
