The living , not the dead

People in this part of the world are quick to judge the dead rather than focusing On their own short comings and waiting patiently with fear and trembling for that day when death will also beckon on them.

I have seen,heard and witnessed series of critics as soon as words spread about someone's demise. But really the question is ''who are you to judge me ,when you neither see me act nor corrected me''.

The case is usually worse if the deceased in question is well known. You hear stories of how they've cheated,abused,robbed or act unholy; meanwhile all the times the person was alive you laugh and act like nothing happened.

Well, i have good news for you; you are not dead yet , maybe GOD is merciful enough,saving you the wrath and giving you a chance to change. The bad news is; you have succeeded in grading a destructive road by keeping quite, this has however caused someone to be doomed.

Really ignorance is not an excuse before God but i have no doubt that your little word of counsel could have opened the eyes of the victim to see what's wrong.Instead you kept quite waiting for the individual to die while you step-on to the lime light dishing out someone else's life and mistake.

The fact is if your friend failed while alive you are nothing but a failure too. Because i believe you are being placed in someone's life as a help meet. To help the person reach HIS OR HER GOAL . if your friend die goalless it means you are worthless!!!

Such individual will only but mislead our generation. it shows you have no potential, no drive , no aim, no interest .... thus all you care about is yourself only.

Like chaz B would say In his time(may GOD Rest his soul)_ ''if one could reach one; and one could teach one, together we can make a better world.

End of discussion is this; Let's be true to our self and our neighbours, correct when necessary, chastise, If need be, commend good effort, don't stay In the dark while shooting deadly arrow against someone you could have helped to be better.

Let's stay responsible that's a duty for all human regardless.

HELP The living get better....

ANGER- A DEVIL'S PLOY

We all know No one can serve two masters without having a preference. There's a need to have a favourite since No two persons are the same .

GOD is peaceful and righteous, the devil  is crafty and ferocious. Yea, we all know who to go for, don't we?

Know this: you can never belong to GOD except you are done being an angry machine.

Anger is deadly, it kills the spirit of GOD and even renders the fellow miserable.

For you to get rid of anger, you need to first of all acknowledge that you have it and you need Help.
Anger is No respecter of person, no matter the plan of GOD for your Life ,No matter how much you have, No matter how, What, who ,where or when , anger happens. And it's fruit lingers for ages. It breeds more burden than anyone of us can bear .

It is the devils ploy to keep you In the prison of yourself. Set yourself free through, prayers and meditation on GOD's word.

For positive re-direction study the scriptures below;

Proverbs 14:30 GNB
Peace of mind makes the body healthy, but jealousy(anger) is like a cancer.

Proverbs 17:14 GNB
The start of an argument is like the first break in a dam; stop it before it goes any further.

Proverbs 19:11 GNB
If you are sensible, you will control your temper. When someone wrongs you, it is a great virtue to ignore it.

Proverbs 20:3 CEV
It makes you look good when you avoid a fightonly fools love to quarrel.

Romans 12:19 AMP
Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave the way open for [God's] wrath; for it is written, Vengeance is Mine, I will repay (requite), says the Lord. [Deut. 32:35.]

Ephesians 4:26-27 ERV
“When you are angry, don’t let that anger make you sin,” and don’t stay angry all day. Don’t give the devil a way to defeat you.

James 1:19-20 AMP
Understand [this], my beloved brethren. Let every man be quick to hear [a ready listener], slow to speak, slow to take offense and to get angry. For man's anger does not promote the righteousness God [wishes and requirement].

Proverbs 29:11 KJV
A fool uttereth all his mind: but a wise man keepeth it in till afterwards.
 
Having gone through these scriptures you will realised that
* Anger makes you vulnerable
* Anger makes  you an enemy of GOD.like nebuchadnezzar Dan 3:13-30
* Anger makes you a fool
* Anger makes you sin against GOD.Thereby, loosing his grip over your life .
* Anger fetches trouble beyond What we can handle.

Would you rather not deal with it?

Get wisdom, stay alive and make yourself proud as you change YOU.

FAITH CONFESSION: I refuse to be a fool, I refuse to be an instrument In the hands of the devil,I rebuke the spirit of anger In me and I command  Anger to die a permanent death In my Life  In the name of JESUS. AMEN.

NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONs-----GIVE IT A BREAK BUT A THOUGHT

One of the titilating times for most indvidual all around the world. A period they hold In utmost reverence. Bells, wine, food ,shows,dance,  love, commitment, promises....... unending Yea it is.  But most importantly their new year resolution .

Well, I tell you it's a  psychological thing to believe In a new year. Many hope for a change In everything because they feel new year comes with a DIVINE opportunity that the passing year hasn't.
By this time many would have written out plans of what they set to achieve without working out plan of how they are meant to achieve it .
Sometimes, planing is beyond pen and paper.There must come a time you will have to put your destiny upon yourself and fight for a place among the  high flyers of our time.

There's nothing spectacular about the new year, the skies ain't changing, the sun isn't hiding, the world hasn't change!!! It's still going to be day and night, just as the previous years.

Your new year is ; your new idea -the one you are ready to give your all up for.
Your new year is your paying attention to every detail of how thing guan.
Your new year isn't about writting out a million wishes and doing none,
New year is for the doers !
For those who will take their place and do the work
It`s not for those WHO USE TO, but for those WHO WANT TO

Romans 12:3 AMP
For by the grace (unmerited favor of God) given to me I warn everyone among you not to estimate and think of himself more highly than he ought [not to have an exaggerated opinion of his own importance], but to rate his ability with sober judgment, each according to the degree of faith apportioned by God to him.

Infact, the world won't change, If you don't see Yourself changed!
Change your thinking .
Work out your own escape plan out of the comfortable gridlocker you psychologically and somehow spritually built for yourself.
STOP following meaningless trend of just writting resolutions because everyone else is doing So, you resolute the bugs In your brain, the gum on your seat, the deafness In your ears, your idle hand , your untammed mouth, your meaningless friendship, unprofitable business, struggling to belong ....

Romans 12:2 AMP
Do not be conformed to this world (this age), [fashioned after and adapted to its external, superficial customs], but be transformed (changed) by the [entire] renewal of your mind [by its new ideals and its new attitude], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God, even the thing which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His sight for you].

GIVE IT A BREAK , BUT A THOUGH, ITS NOT ABOUT WHAT YOU'VE WRITTEN, IT'S ABOUT THE BLESSINGS YOU WILL COUNT IN 2016.
Time is ticking, days are going, age is adding up.... Do Your Best In 2015.
I wish us all a fruitful year In JESUS NAME.

PREPARE TO MEET YOUR GOD 
And it was day, everyone was busy doing their job, suddenly there was this great noise, it was a sound of horror, not friendly at all, everyone was running  and people started coming together in groups, all had different wears which distinguish them from one another. I saw some people from my church that I know personally. There came a pastor who alerted us to stand and go make peace. We grouped ourselves in twos, trying to calm the people down; everyone was in great disarray. It looks as if we no longer understand each other. People speak violently, in position of harmful weapons with the aim of harming one another. There was no happiness in the world, a lot of accident and crashes, death toll increased, there was no sunshine neither was there a moon shining, no stars, and everywhere was dark and scary. I saw Christians that have grouped themselves earlier going about telling the people the master will soon arrive, but most people wouldn't just listen, they were busy causing one chaos or another, some people were matching, singing victory songs which sounded ancient but really nice in hearing. Only few were truly ready, happy and singing to meet who they call the master.
In less than 5 mins  more group of people started marching out, people I haven’t seen before, it seems the whole earth was one again and people of like minds grouped together in the same colour. Americans were with Chinese and British and Africans and there was no difference or among them all, the only difference I could picture was the cloth they had on them. Some men were in black, some had white on their black, some wore red attire, few had white only, some had the arm print of white, black and red and each group wrestled each other mainly for no reason at all. The confusion went on for some hours but few people whom I suppose are those who had kept the faith were unrelenting, singing joyfully like they won some lottery or so.
The people were scattered all around, some walked with fear, some in grief, some in violence and some in joy. We started calming the people down, telling them to stay still because the master has the solution to the trouble but some said they don’t want a solution, they want to take charge, the man in Red think that they are supreme to the ones in black while those in black thinks they are better off the ones in black and white.
I witnessed a lot of killing, humans were butchered like chicken, there was war of supremacy., still the ones in white think their master has the solution so I went further to talk to a lady in white about what is to happen and she said the master just gave a call that he will join us sooner than we imagine to put an end to the chaos because it is beyond our power and there is nothing we can do about it. I asked further if there is any word we can say to the hurting souls to calm them down because the people seems impatient but she replied and said the people need no better comfort than to diligently wait on the one who can make them victories then she began singing another victorious song and asked me to join her in singing, she said the only way you can be assured never to get entangled in the midst of the chaos is to keep looking up expectantly to the master because he has sound the alert and he will soon be here to gather the groups together, there is no things much to be done than to work out our salvation, wait patiently and encourage as many as are willing to meet the master, because I was so frightened, I hid myself under a car and kept on watching the people moving in rage and violence then soon enough there came a gate from the sky down to the earth and I saw four men, three stood at the back and one stood in the front, he had a purple apparel on him, a man which I can’t really tell what his colour was, he was neither black nor white.
As soon as the gate hit the ground, it was opened on its own, it was a golden gate that shined so brightly, with it came light and brightness and as soon as it opened, there was a great silence, such that I have never experienced before, everyone was quite as if there was no body, every being bowed down with face touching the ground, the man stepped out of the golden gate, and every one remained still and lot more people begin to gather quietly, it amazes me first of how the people knew him to be the “The Master” there was this automatic respect as if everyone was controlled, no argument, no chaos, no trouble, everyone seems to be fearful at the presence of this man including myself, I heard the ones beside me whaling in silence, where is my friend tell him the master is here…………………. Then he said I regret that I ever made all of you, what will it have taken me to kill you off? Because right from when I made you all, I have never had a rest. And who can give me the reason for this noise and chaos? He paused, yet no one spoke, then he continued and said why do you all trouble yourself – I choose whoever I want to do whatever pleases me and there is nothing anyone can do about it. I just want to put an end to you all but just for some few ones here I will choose to show compassion not because anyone of you here is worth it but because I wish to. Then suddenly I saw some Christian or people stood up trying to look for who to preach to I suppose and I remember telling one that the time to win soul is over, this is the time for judgement but they wouldn't listen, there were some other people who were crying but I don’t know why, some were smiling profusely like all is well. Some were afraid just like I was because it looked as if anything could happen any minute.
The man moved a bit further forward, he had in his hand a white tape (cello tape) and his finger use of it could write. He moves close to a man and said, you know your works and right where you stand in your heart, you know you are my own. He said to everyone, this man here is man who has served me with his all and today I am glad to call you my own. The man felt so happy and can’t just stop paying homage. Now the people got even more tensed and everyone began to plead for mercy. He moved again to another lady who happens to be a girl in my school whom I know to be wayward, and then he said to her, you are wicked! His countenance changed and he took the tape he was holding and put on her forehead, then he moved to another lady and another man, he kept giving them this tape on their forehead which tag them wicked and the ones who got the tag were so much and the man was just so emotional. He was going to cry and his spirit was down, he doesn't look happy, it looks as if everyone was wicked and so far only one man has made it, then he called out a man who happen to be my friend and he said where is he, tell him to come forward and get his reward but the man was nowhere to be found and one of us said he has gone back to look if there could still be anyone who need to be saved. And the man said to whom is he accountable for? He said many will spend much time calling people in for me but they themselves will never get to know me, I tell you as much as you work for me, I need to know you personally and have a one on one communion with you, it is not about your service, and its how much you know me. Tell him to come back and spend more time with me than he spends in seeing me. Only those I meet communing with me will get my reward for there is time to save others and there is time to be saved.
At this point, making it wasn’t sure for anyone even to those who had been singing victorious songs, then he turned to me, immediately I heard my name I was so afraid, I stood up slowly, very afraid, a lot was running through my mind, there was a flash back on how I have lived my life, my sins came clear in front of me, I know I was never going to make it, all the whole time on my knees, I was pleading and asking for mercy. It seem a doomed day for me, I knew no one could save me, my works is being taken to the furnace and it shall be tested and if I fall it means I have failed and there is no hope again. I stood motionless and he said you! Then my heart skip its place straight to my mouth, am about to give up when someone woke me up, I felt empty, useless, unworthy, I feel outcast my spirit was leaving me, my body out of my soul, grieve took hold of me and am about to give up.
I answered yes master,  I know I have no excuse, If I don’t make it he has given me enough grace and I had more chances, he continued and said “do not be afraid, my child, my child sounded to me like a billion dollars right in my hand at least a little calm in my spirit but my heart still pounds faster than it should, your only desire was to know me, though you fail me often, you pray only to be the least in my kingdom, if there was a chance to get there, at this point I realise I was connected to the heavens all this while but never knew that I had been my secret prayer since I gave my life to Christ years back that God I don’t mind if you don’t give me a crown just make me enter your kingdom even if I will be the least important. Now I began to remember even the time that I have cursed God and said words I shouldn't have said during my period of frustration, I begin to recollect memories of how I commune in my spirit and which he gave me a sign he heard me. My brain is about to stop functioning because it couldn't accumulate all the thoughts that runs through my mind in that period. God for sure listens to every word we say in prayer and even if he doesn't speak it is just because he chose not to. Many of us wants him to be like our earthly father who gives responses to every word we say but the teacher is often silent during a test not because he doesn't know what do but because he want to how far we can go on when he doesn't speak and how much we have learnt all the while, I confirmed and said I know how often strife to please me even though you fail but its more Honourable to see that someone really lived all their life having nothing to boast of aside the Christ they haven’t seen but believed its real. He further said this lady is one of the few who knows how to touch the heart of the father, not because I have so blessed them, rather I lay back far enough to see if some people will keep following, many left the faith for this, but the few that stay fill the end will be justified. I need my people to understand that the essence of their salvation is not to work so all man can see they are, it is for them to be ready, willing and worthy to come up with me when the set time come, this is not a set time, I change my mind again, yet giving you all wicked ones, a time to change and let me re-visit you in this few days left and be worthy of my kingdom. However let the few that are justified this day including you pointing at me be more watchful lest you miss the ways.
The devil is at work and will work even more in days to come, he will take more from my people, therefore stand in the way, draw men to me, do the work that is set before you, work out your faith, strife not to know too much, you can only know better when you are with me, more chaos are to come, unexplained calamity will occur but you have my word to shield and to guide you. Do not let your love for my church wax cold, do all you can and you shall get your reward, let your song be of victory and salvation, let all men see how sweet it is to serve me. I will pour out more of my spirit on as many that desire it even unto ye wicked one pointing at some people he tagged earlier, if you will let go and let me work on you.
Again he said let my church stand in the faith that has been giving, don’t let my blood be in vain, with a sober face he said I don’t want anyone to perish, I love you all, can’t you see it? I am always with you. Why is there so much wickedness in your heart? While he was speaking, I thought in my heart, why does he tag everyone wicked and keep calling them wicked, but it not all of them that are wicked at such reasoning from the perspective and criteria on which my friend was judged.
Amazingly he said, patting me on the side they are wicked because they have all heard about me and my death and yet they choose to sin, having no regard for the blood I shed and the stripes all over me. As many as will receive my word and throw it back at me is wicked and will be condemned when I come again so I said “again” but you are here now!!! He explained the grief and pains of my people in tears have caused me to come in anger, but now I see so many are not prepared, not because they don’t know I am coming but they are caught up in argument, trying to be prominent and well know abundantly the work of my kingdom.
I have few more people who need to hear my word and more souls to be warned for my kingdom; will be condemned when I shall return only that my grace will be sufficient for they that know it. Don’t worry about the ones who call themselves mine and no longer walk call in my way, there will always be people gathered for destruction no matter how much you try to save them but try as much you can to enable the ones that will change do and that the ones that don’t know me get to know about me.
Keep your lamps on until I shall return don’t be fooled and discourage, there may never be another chance for grace, now that you have it, use it wisely, you have toiled enough, a time will come soon when I shall gather my own unto myself.

Beware, beware and stand with me. Then he went back into the golden gate that was wheel up the sky until it disappeared but everyone was soaked in tears and regret pleading and asking for mercy.

OUR LIVES IN PARABLE


OUR LIVES IN PARABLE(DREAM 3)
 In a dream, the lord took me to a house with many rooms at the far end of a street. The house was a bungalow, it has a lot of room in it and each room was well spaced. In each room, people dressed differently, some discussing, some marrying, some playing, some fighting; it appeared everyone was busy doing one thing or the other in the house.
 I saw an old man walking quietly out of a bush, he beckoned me and I ran to meet him, He was quite old: he could barely stand upright. I knelt down, greeted him and asked nicely if he needed anything. He asked me to go in and call his people because it is time; I looked at him surprisingly and said time for what? Because I know everyone in here seems rather too busy to follow an old man like you. There is a great party in there and a lot of dignitaries are in attendance, I doubt if anyone will want to come with you. But if there is anything you want, I can get it for you, He said No, I need you to go call them, my troops will be here any moment from now. I told him explicitly that even if Angel Michael comes in now, no one will listen because they’re all  busy, but I will go tell them  it’s  time to. The man stood as I hurriedly went back to the house.
I entered the first room and told the people there that the man outside said its time to go, they all yelled at me and ask me to tell him they are not ready, he can either wait or come back later, I tried persuading them that the man is too old to go and return again, I told them to let go at once but they all refused. I went to the second room, knocked and knocked but no one answered, they were in there quarrelling and yelling at each other that they were so carried away that they did not notice I was knocking.
 I went to the third room where I had pastors and some church goers, they were busy teaching one and other and I said to them the old man is outside waiting, he said it is time to go with him. One answered and said which man? Please lets continue don’t mind her, another said let’s check to know if it is true, another said tell him we are coming, one said lets go, some said to the one that is ready to go to wait so we can all go together so he waited (At times we forget it’s an individual race where everyone gets a trophy to himself). One said let me finish this passage, another said let’s wait for the others to come. Only two were willing to go immediately so I said wait here while I call the people from the other rooms. I entered the next room and in that room a lot of dignitaries was there, drinking, smoking, fornicating and doing all manner of immoral activities. The ladies were naked consummating with the guys, some of the people in that  room are well to-do, flaunting jewelries of all kind, lavishing money on prostitutes, making boast of their riches and so on.


I went in and told them, an old man is waiting outside for them, one said, it is time that you should all come along, you need to see the looks on their faces. What are you doing here? One said. Tell him we are not interested, another asked, Is he rich? What is he worth? Did you tell him the kind and caliber of people that are here, does he know this and that, she started calling names of musicians, actor and actresses, politicians; she introduced them to me one after another. I got tired of it all, and said to them, can you please just follow this man once and for all?  They all started giving complains stories upon stories and the ones that are ready to go are just few, while some would love to go but they are waiting for a friend who haven’t arrived yet, some need a change of cloth and some need to make-up, some to wait for their husband. I was infuriated and couldn’t be patient anymore; I had to go back to tell the man the people are not ready to go and need you to stay a little longer so they can be prepared, while some said they are not coming.
The man sighed and said I know they won’t come; they are such an ungrateful people. I regret ever creating them, some are willing I know, but the affairs of other people will hinder them, and some will come out of curiosity just to know what I am all about. Some won’t come because they are proud some will eventually change their mind, some will be waiting to put everything in place before they come but I don’t know if they will meet me by the time they are ready, I am old and I can’t wait forever. If only the people in the rooms will come I am satisfied. They are enough for me. You may need to go persuade them more so they can get here before the curtain is dropped and taken up.

 I went and begged them to come and while we were returning a curtain dropped from the sky to the earth and the old man was standing at the opening of the curtain, the curtain look golden, so wide and big that it could contain so many, the beginning of the curtain I couldn’t see, it was looking so bright and the sun shined on it beautifully. It was pleasant to behold. I was able to get some few people this time but our movement was slow motioned. Our pace was like that of a toddler.  The distance from the house to the curtain is not so long. In physical eye, it will take about 30seconds (max) to get to the curtain. Some few people dressed in white were behind the curtain and they were just smiling at us, they seem happy to see us. The music from the house was so loud and distracting(the affairs of this world). While some were walking towards the curtain, they were still looking back .only few were focused, some were anxious, some curious, some going aimlessly.
 Each faces carried different expression, it tells the story of how we’ve lived, the sacrifices we made to be part of the few walking, the distractions, worries, uncertainty, displeasures, troubles curiosity  and all sort .Unlike the faces of the people beyond, they look happy and excited. The opening of the curtain is narrow it can only take a person at a time, we were few walking but I wished we could walk faster, the man was shouting hurry, before the curtain is taken up, hurry! Hurry!! Hurry!!!


It sounded like  we were in a race and about to pass the baton over to the next athlete, we were close enough to the curtain but our movement is slow paced  that it takes patience to  get through, walking back to the house seems faster, easier and convenient, but walking to the curtain seems to be a difficult task, most of us want to try running but it looks like we can’t go faster than our legs can take us, something seems to be in control not us and that things is really testing our patience. Some were tired because they don’t understand why a 30secs walk is taking this long; we are so close but yet far from it. The old man said hurry and don’t be weary, you will make it before the curtain closes just keep trying and some were walking in fear, some in tears, some with joy and happiness, we were close enough before I woke up, but before I woke up, I asked the man he knew people won’t answer to his call and why he still sent me, he said he still believe they can change. It’s a free will and it cannot be forced but I know if they come with me, they will never regret it; I just love them and don’t want to give up. He said call them out, let them know the time is now, the curtain is down and the counting has began, shout maybe they can come out, scream their names and save them before the curtain closes. It is only once they will have this chance, let them follow me and they won’t regret it, I am closer than you think, hurry there is no more time, I am up already, I will give little more time, but it won’t be as much time as I have given, call my people unto me.   
This seem like a parable to some but as the spirit gives understanding I pray you will be able to find its true meaning revealed unto you and GOD’S  purpose be fulfilled in us all in Jesus name.

A hug can save a life? its is proven to extend life span  
The time you spend talking about other people's problem can proffer a solution to your own problem .

TO MY FRIEND FULL OF WORRIES


NO ONE KNOWS WHEN..............



Just some few more weeks after the first encounter, I slept and had yet another dream, this time it was short but very scary. In the dream I saw myself going somewhere on a busy road, then suddenly, I heard a noise that can be likened to a big trucks horn, it was so loud that everyone around had to stop to look for where the noise came from, it sounded again, this louder than the first, people got confused because no one seems to know where it coming from and couldn't see anything. It was dark and there were no light around, everyone got scarred and scattered. The sound continues, someone around said, I guess it’s a war alert, war alert? Run for your life and stop asking silly questions uttered another fellow. Some seconds later, the whole place was scattered as people were screaming and running towards different directions not even know where they are heading or what they are running from, reporters with their cameras, journalist with their pen and paper all running around, people making calls to each other without clear conversation. Stop! Stop! What is going on around, why are you all running around with no reason, well! I was only talking to myself, as no one seems to hear or even notice me. I stopped running, waiting to see the cause of this whole thing. People began going missing, a man was on the phone with someone, the next thing I saw was the phone dropping on the floor and the man disappeared and on and on it went. I was so confused, I knew it was rapture but why am I still here, I was looking here and there, devastated and confused, the only thing I could utter was God help me, what is going on, I want to go as well! I prayed like never before.
I ran back to my house and couldn't find anyone at first, I eventually saw my sister sleeping, and I wonder where she was while the whole thing was going on. Troops of armed men, looking so scary well-built men with Guns and war weapons, in machine vehicles and trucks, roaming and sounding mysteriously, yelling at the ones left on EARTH, one of them stood up and said
Attention you all, I am now in charge so you may all have to behave yourselves because there is no joke and no one is ever going to come for you, you have had enough time to go up- there, but since you have decided to stay and wait for me. I am glad to see you all but I might not be nice to you, you will be apportioned your due task, you must enable to do them without complaints else your task will be doubled. I hope I have made myself clear, now get to work. Work began so also beatings, rebellion children was the name given to all, I challenged on of the men, I am not one so mind the way you speak to me, he looked at me in disgust and said, if you aren't one, why were you not caught up fool? The word hit me and I began to shed tears. He said to me, it is too late to cry, truly you were a good person at least better than some other ones we have got here but you are too stone-hearted (Ezek 36vs 26), when the almighty gives you an instruction, (Zech 7vs 12-13) you are either too fearful to get it done or you don’t want to do it at all. This is the reason why you were not caught up, you always allow the fear of, “what if” to dominate you (Psalms 54vs 61,118 vs. 6) but if I can, I wish you won’t be here again. Again, I exclaimed! Maybe you should think over, make amend and then I will talk to the boss on your behalf perhaps he will let you go, I wiped my tears off at once  and shouted, I am ready! I am ready!! What do I do, what do you want? This work is too much for me, it will just kill me please I don’t want to stay! I screamed and cried and begged, I was made to carry something’s I can’t move and someone was constantly beating me, everywhere was heated up seems the wind has seized Joel 2vs 30-31). It looked as if the law of nature has seized to be, No light, water, moon, sun, nothing, yet could see. Such a great torment was it for all; no one dares to rest as there is a designated person to beat you up if you try such. The torture is not killing anyone but the pain is inexpiable that one will wish to be dead. People started confessing to the name of Jesus but the army seriously dealt with whoever calls that name.

The heaven suddenly open on us and we saw people peeping down on earth and looked down on us, it looks like there had been a separation because as we could hear everyone enjoying themselves, we all long to have a ladder that will lead us into that presence. There the sun shined so bright, different from the way it shined on earth. I guess the man up there just wanted to do a show off so we could see what we are missing; we couldn't communicate each other. At that point, it dawned on me that I have just missed the great day I thought I had planned and prepared for, I wept profusely till there were no more tears, I wish I will die but death was nowhere near, I pleaded for a second chance, I went on my kneels crying profusely. I woke up to discover I was dreaming. My bed was soaked in tears seeming like a reality. It was 2am and I heard a siren from the neighbourhood  I got so scared, thought it really happened, I ran outside, opened the door, everywhere was quite, it was the police men on patrol, I was the only one at home, I fell on my knees once again and pleaded for mercy, as much as I gave thanks that it was a dream. I remain in the shock for few weeks before it finally sink into me.
It could have only been God that had mercy on me because it was real, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to share this, God forbid, I would be in hell by now, but the God we serve so full of mercy and compassion has revealed his mind so we can re trace our step back to him and surrender totally to his sovereignty.

BE YOU!!!



  WHATS YOUR PASSION (2)
Most young people now a days don't know what they want. Many try to copy someone else instead of trying to be themselves.

It’s hard to find someone who is driven by passion especially in the part of the world where I come from.
Everyone wants to be like someone who is already made.

If the world was made up of just one character then it would have been so boring mark zukerburg had copied Lincoln we would have had 2 Lincolns.  If Messi had copied J.J Okocha, he would have been another Okocha.

Despite the fact that he loved his style of play he never settled to be him, rather he works toward surpassing whatever skill they had. If not he won't be holding a new world record. 

    A passionate individual can steal qualities and skills from the people who inspire him or her but is not limited by what limit them. 

You must be ready to soar high, just like an eagle.

If you have passion for cooking, why not develop yourself in that aspect, try new things, put tastes to test, Be different, be unique, invent a new recipe you never can tell how far it will go.

Be the best the world ever had in your time
Be a hope to that child who’s struggling to make a name. 

Are you driven to be a singer, be a singer with a difference let your passion drive you crazy?
Let people criticize your dedication, sing with all your strength, don't be anyone other than what God created you for.

Really!!!
People need something better. You could be the best, put the best to test.

Tiger woods’ used to be the best in golf but today, a lot more people are standing up to the challenge of defeating him. The likes of  jack nicklaus,Ben hogan and bobby Jones. That’s what your passion can earn u.
  If they had settled to be like tiger woods’ they will be praise for being like tiger but no one would be praised for being better than he is.( Woods' still in shape though). 

Don’t just copy your mentors; add your personal value to whatever you are learning.

You rather get there late, being the best than to be “one of someone else's kinds” 

When people laugh at you cos you are different, you laugh at them cos they are all the same 

Go for it................. See you at the top my friend. 


YOUR ATTITUDE WILL BREAK YOU


IT'S YOUR CALL 
Just some few weeks into the New Year of 2012, I had a dream but right before I went to bed I had an argument with my sister. And because I knew I was right, I refused to apologize and went to bed angrily. I said some few prayers, read a portion of the bible like I always do every night.
Few hours into my sleep, I met an old man as I walked on a slippery road in the dark hours of the night. He came close to me as I fight my way through the dark, hoping to see the light shine. From the way he spoke, it seemed like he knew me well. He asked what the matter was and why I was walking towards the direction I’m on.  I told him I had to come this way because everyone gets on my nerves and yet they don’t apologize; I narrated what happened and why I refused to apologize. He shook his head, looked at me and said slowly “What will it have cost you just to say you are sorry rather than get confused, infuriated and looking this way” I responded immediately that’’ I am not losing my way and I know exactly where I am coming from, I have forgotten about the issue but just doesn’t want her to know so she won’t take me for a fool. He looked at me surprisingly and said “You are a fool” Astonished! I looked at him angrily and asked how? He said “if only you realize what this little thing you did will cost you, then you will wish you went back and settle the matter immediately. I stood in shock; I don’t seem to understand what he is talking about. He gazed at me and said, come with me!

We walked a long way up unto a very high mountain, how I got there I can’t explain, he walked me down the left path I was walking before he met me, when we got to the end of the road, he asked me to look down, I saw a lot of people walking in the dark, moving towards a very big and wild fire and am like oh! My God, I never realized there will ever be such a great fire anywhere in this world. Some to this place, the entire place was dark, hot and unpleasant, it was so deep and so wide that I don’t think anyone can be there without feeling the impact of the fire. Immediately I screamed, surprised, is this for real? I said to myself, is this the hell fire everyone talks about? I started asking many questions at the same time, shaking, I sat down on the mountain with my head turned upside down, and I wondered if it was even working at this time. The man said to me, this is where you are heading if you choose to remain stubborn and adamant; I have only come to show you and make the journey easier for you, I fell to the ground, tears in my eyes and he said if you wish I can take you in at once. Immediately the tears dried up and all I was screaming was no! No! No! Please I promise never to be stubborn again or claim right I am okay at this spot, please take me away I don’t want to go, I don’t want to please. I held him and pleaded. I knew once he takes me there, there can never be a way of escape. The mountain is made of soft sand, so no way for anyone to climb and it was just too high and too deep. The flames are just too weird; people in it are not burnt. Different noise coming from different angles and a whole lot more are trekking down their way there. Curiously I asked, are these ones blind that they cannot see they are walking towards there death, he smiled again and said, they know but it is too late because they have already chosen their own path to eternity and that is exactly where you are heading if you won’t prepare your mind to change your ways and get yourself ready.
I told him I am a Christian, of course you know I am a chorister and I don’t keep gangs, I don’t do stuffs I do before anymore, so why will I want to come here, he said you don’t do what you usually do before again but you are still doing some things that are not biblical I responded back saying, yes I know but it is difficult he cuts in, if it proves to be difficult then you choose to live it difficult. Okay! Okay! I will change and I will totally desist from them all.  It’s time to go if you think you don’t like what you are seeing here, let me show you the way that leads to brighter day, he stretched out his hand towards the right side of where I stood and said “walk this path with me or otherwise without me which equally ends here, before he was done talking, I started moving with him as fast as my legs could take me.  Along the way, he disappeared but I kept on walking towards the right till I got to a road which was brighter and saw various people working, this place was different from where I was coming from. Just before the man disappeared, he told me some things like:

People are ignorantly walking in darkness, they always want to proof they are right, they don’t apologize and they often believe they are doing the right thing. Some knows that they are walking in darkness but voluntarily choose to remain there because they think Hell is a joke. Some choose when to be good and when to be bad and say to themselves, “God understand” of course he does! He exclaimed.

Now it is your duty to tell such people to change, to look back and see how long they have walked in darkness. Bring them in the marvelous light of the most high and say to them “there is no much time” he repeated this over and over again, you really need to hurry, there is no much time, please you need to, I wonder why he couldn’t just tell everyone himself so they can believe him, before I knew it, he was gone.

Those were his last words to me. I woke up hurriedly thinking I was already dead, i busted out crying, pleading, praying and asking God for mercy, when I realize after some few minute that I am still alive, I felt joy in my heart, I got off the bed and all I could utter was thank you God, I pleaded for mercy and immediately picked up my phone to send texts out to people I may have offended and vice versa. I remembered a guy I vow never to forgive due to what he did to me years back, I immediately went on my knees and pleaded for him and for myself, I released all I have tied down in anger in my heart and I was free again.
As Christians, this is a call for us all to check back on ourselves and repent of any evil in our heart that may cause us to loose Gods kingdom. The man in my dream asked me how the insult has affected me, he said when someone insults you, does it stops you from breathing? Does it scrap off your hair? Does it stop your blood from pumping into the heart? I uttered no. what does it do to you he asked, it makes me feel bad and annoyed and pissed I responded. He said if it doesn’t affect any of the things I gave you then it not worth pondering over it, just let go okay? He cuddled me on the side and said forget it! Don’t let the devil get you.
