TIMELY NOTES! Panic is the absence of control and the presence of an overwhelming fear. It's easier to blame someone else for the happenings around our lives than to take responsibility. People who panic are those who have transferred their control to something or someone else. Panic is striving without arriving anywhere. Panic leaves you in a room where you won't know what to do; and the worse state anyone can be is a state without action. Panic leads to depression; and depression is a state of inactivity. It's impossible to be depressed and be active at the same time. God does not expect us to live in panic; He has given us control over the earth. Isn't it a shame to know that most of the things we panic about are the same things we have control over? Scripturally speaking, there's really no situation that cannot be controlled. The bible says there's no challenge that comes to a man that is above the man. But choosing to panic at the appearance of a situat...

TIMELY NOTES! You may be sacked from your job, but do not ever sack yourself from working. It is not the "job of our hands" that God blesses, but the "works of our hands". Organizations may not give you a job, but they can not stop you from working. As believers, we are not permitted to sit back at home all in the name of "there is no job". If you can not find a job or a contract to execute, then look for places where you can work voluntarily, especially places where you know they can not afford your bills. God has a way of blessing the works of our hands. He may not pay you from the person you worked for, but He would surely pay you. Sometimes, the reason why we get jobless or out of contract to execute is because we are blind to the needs of those who desperately need our skills and services but cannot afford them. I remember when I had no job for 7 months; and somehow, God was paying me for all the voluntary works I was doing for people and organiza...

TIMELY NOTES! If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at will change. What you look at is as important as how you look at it. I have discovered that people see what they want to see and not what really needs to be seen. Do not judge a book by its cover. Sometimes, it is better to be kind than to be right. Come to think of it, you really do not have to be right all the time. If Jesus wanted to be right at all times, He would not have selected the 12 disciples. Because some of them mis-represented Him at some point. Jesus had no business with poverty, but He became poor so that we can through His poverty become rich. Haughtiness does not elevate anyone, give room for tolerance. Most of the things we judge people for are the things we think they should know. We however forget that we are not them, and they are not us. We are different; so the best thing to do is to release ourselves from every emotionally attachment or interpersonal judgement and live with p...

TIMELY NOTES! Movement will be faster and better when light is brighter. No matter how familiar you are with your staircase, you will not run through it in the dark. Darkness is a compelling force; once it comes, it subdues everything inside it. And even if you desire to move very fast, the darkness will naturally compel you to pick one step at a time. The proven way to overpower darkness is to engage light. Darkness only occupies where there is no light, just as ignorance creates the drama when knowledge is not present. Life has a staircase, and everyone is expected to step-up from time to time. But scripture tells us that the whole world is filled with darkness. In other words, the whole world is filled with ignorance. I believe this is why many people have not gone beyond their first step in life. When you no longer understand how things are going, and when everything seems to be working contrary to your plan, then you are probably in the dark, walking in ignorance. No matter ho...

THEY ARE FOR SIGNS! I was heading home sometimes back when my spirit began to recite Isaiah 8:18. It says "Behold, I and the children that God has given me are for signs and for wonders". I know that scripture very well, so I wondered why my spirit was so excited about it, even to a point of reciting it. And all of a sudden, the Holy Spirit said something I'd call a paraphrase of that scripture. He said "you and the souls I have given you are for signs and for wonders; and it is your responsibility to ensure they become signs and wonders". I knew I had an obligation to win the unsaved souls to Christ and nurture them till they are established in the kingdom, but I didn't know they are my children, neither did I know that I have a responsibility to teach them how to become signs and wonders. But how do I teach them how to become signs and wonders? The same way a coach spends time with his team during training is the same way we're expected to trai...

WHERE ARE THE SONS? They say no knowledge is a waste, but I think the knowledge that can't solve immediate problems is a waste. The bible says the earnest expectation of the creature is waiting for the manifestation of the sons of God. Who are the sons, and where are they? When will they start manifesting the earnest expectations of the world? Perhaps I know who they are. They have mixed identities; they claim to be believers yet they struggle alongside with the world in search of a job. They think selfish thoughts; their ultimate goal is to own a house and a car they can call their own. They blame the government for the challenges around their lives. The world may wait forever if these sons do not discover their purpose in life. If my purpose is to have a good job, own a house and a car, get married and have children, then I don't need to write these messages to you. The world is not waiting for me to buy the latest cars or build a mansion, it's not waiting for me ...
