LIVING A WONDERFUL LIFE

LIVING A WONDERFUL LIFE- Jer 32:42b(MSG) Have you ever wondered how one lives a wonderful life. I mean a life of wonder. I believe that is what the Lord want us to experience this month. After having prayed and fasted for 40 weeks (every Wednesday at MOT), and then embarking on a SNOW journey...i.e. seven nights of wonders, it is not expected that one should live a normal or dull life any longer. I have great expectations that one can start to live a wonderful life: I set here pathway to living a wonderful life: 1. Have Faith . Faith is rightly defined in Heb 11:1 as the substance of things hoped for and evidence of things not seen. A strong desire to bring to be, what seemed to be impossible. A number of examples in the bible speak volumes. In Mark 10:47 a previously blind man, cut through the odds of a teeming crowd and resistance to attract the attention of Jesus. Even though he could not see, he believed the possibility by his action. And he saw, and thereafter lived a won...

Wealthy Place

Wealthy Place, Wealthy Ways and Wealthy Destination I have been asked to do a small piece about why I wrote my book titled ‘Wealthy Place’, and share what Africans need to do to arrive at a wealthy destination. Recently, I put up an inspirational quote on my Instagram, it says: ‘Self worth is not the quantum of your money but the momentum of your values. Don't build money, build values, values will bring wealth’- This statement cannot be overstated by anyone looking or aspiring to be wealthy. In my working life I have undertaken many projects i.e. Professional and Business investments. I have also seen or mentored many people who desire to be wealthy. One thing that is certain is making money seems to be an obsession and a primary objective of everyone. Much as I would not argue with anyone who wants to make money (who doesn’t), my concern is, there are foundational values we must imbibe before building a financial empire. These values will sustain wealth and ultimat...

RESTORED TO LAUGHTER

OCTOBER-THE MONTH I AM RESTORED TO LAUGHTER-Gen 18:11,12,15 Now Sarah was listening at the entrance to the tent, which was behind him.   11  Abraham and Sarah were already very old, and Sarah was past the age of childbearing.   12  So Sarah laughed to herself as she thought, “After I am worn out and my lord is old, will I now have this pleasure?” 13  Then the  Lord  said to Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh and say, ‘Will I really have a child, now that I am old?’   14  Is anything too hard for the  Lord ? I will return to you at the appointed time next year, and Sarah will have a son.” The above passage is very deep. Sarah, understanding the impossibility of her flesh blurted out laughing at what seemed to be an impossible proclamation. Little did she know that the word was a word of prophesy, and from God Himself. She laughed! There are many types of laughter in the bible, but permit me to share a couple wit...

Blessed Not Cursed

BLESSED NOT CURSED. Deut 30:11-16 BACKGROUND The subject of curses is always  sensitive  for Christians. We   don't  like it or we shy away from discussing it. Is it  denial , or  do  we  crouch  under the 'word/faith'  canopy ? Or we believe  we are covered and that Christ has  redeemed us from the curse of the law. I ndeed Christ has broken t he curse of the law. Gal 3:13  is  very  clear on that.  However, our life must be lived with the  integrity of that  scriptural truth.  Unfortunately , as right as the word is, we  don't  live right, always.   A   Christian  who speak the  scripture bu t does not live it, is a Christian who 1.  plants   a seed and waters  it, and have full confiden ce it would grow and he would  be alive to eat of the harvest, just because he is a believer. We all  know  that  life is not like that. Mt 13...
