Daily Thoughts

You were not born merely to exist. You were created to build, serve, influence, solve, create, and leave the world better than you found it. There is something God has placed within you that the world needs. Your gifts are not accidental. Your experiences are not wasted. Your opportunities are invitations to use what has been entrusted to you for something greater than yourself. Jesus said: “He who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do.” — John 14:12 Great works do not always begin on great platforms. Sometimes they begin with a small idea, a simple act of service, a difficult problem you decide to solve, a person you choose to encourage, or a responsibility you decide to handle with excellence. Nehemiah saw a broken wall and decided to rebuild it. David saw a giant and decided to confront it. Esther saw a crisis and decided to use her position to save a generation. They did not wait for perfect conditions. They recognized the ...

 I f you think you are beaten, you are. If you think you dare not, you don't! If you like to win, but think you can't, It's almost a cinch you won't. If you think you'll lose, you're lost; For out in the world we find Success begins with a fellow's will; It's all in the state of mind. If you think you are outclassed, you are,  You've got to think high to rise, You've got to be sure of yourself before You can ever win a prize. Life's battles don't always go To the stronger and faster man, But sooner or later the man who wins  Is the man who thinks he can Your ability to live a fabulous life is determined by your willpower. Nothing drives you more than your desire. If we read stories of people who have overcome serious disabilities, It is evident that their burning desire to succeed was their driving force. They had a goal in life. Despite the odds, they wanted to change the narrative, and they succeeded. Desire is what made a paralytic Wil...

  STAY MOTIVATED God does not call the qualified, He calls to qualify. Everyone was born great with a unique purpose to fulfill on Earth.   This greatness can only be accessed through the exploitation of potentials deposited in us with positivity and in the right association in a suitable and conducive environment. The desire to become great is an important feeling that must be taken with all seriousness. Greatness is a life commitment journey that needs to be embarked on with all zeal and diligence. It entails the inner desire to make a difference in your designated field of endeavor. All who made it to the hall of fame embarked on this journey of difference. They started somewhere. You don’t just become great overnight. Neither do you become great by just mere talk? You need to act and start somewhere. You don’t need to know the road before you start. By starting the path will unveil itself. Martin Luther King Jnr.   said “Take the first step in faith, you don’t hav...

Knowledge is not power. Knowledge is having the potential to be powerful if put into action. Imagine having knowledge of the fact that if you indiscriminately litter the environment, it will pose health dangers or hazards but you still go ahead to litter the environment for humanity to face the consequences of your actions. What power is in that knowledge as you haven't applied it rightly. That knowledge only becomes power when applied rightly to prevent the health hazards humans might suffer from due to indiscriminate littering. That is wisdom. Wisdom is the right application of knowledge in the right situation to produce the right result. This brings us to the fact that our knowledge, talents, and abilities are having the potential to make us influential, relevant, and powerful if only we use them rightly. God created you with a talent imbedded in you but you keep on blaming others for your failure. Have you sat down to analyze how you have been wasting the talent, ability, i...

Far beyond the wisdom of men, the creator chose to create us in His uniqueness. Some he painted black, white, and others He gave the color yellow with each bearing special qualities. What happens to dynamism if we all are the same. What happens to leadership if we all have the same abilities. Who becomes a follower if we all have prevalent ideas and insight concerning a thing. Who becomes the student if we all have the same in-depth information and knowledge. Come to think of it, we can never and ever in any way be the same because it will make society imbalance and unstable. As the ecosystem comprises of different organisms living together with different roles, we must learn to appreciate everyone's uniqueness and accept and live with them for who they are. Under no circumstance should we allow color and background to make us undermine anybody let alone have a friction with them? Remember our color and our background are not decisions or choices we have made by ourselves. It ...

Success is not a one day venture. It is a journey we embark on and if we must reach our final destination, we must learn to make a pace every day. You don't become successful the day you graduate or the day you receive an award. You become successful when you learn to do things right and accomplish an objective every day. As students, we are all in a class and if we are to come out as the best, we must do excellently well in all the daily and weekly quizzes. Success is a daily venture. Remember it takes days to make up a month and a month to make up a year and year to make up a decade. Goals are long term achievements we are striving to achieve. But without daily objectives, those goals can never be met. You are an achiever and every day counts. The ticking of the clock should keep you alert always. Share to change lives.

You are going to face the odds if it is your sole will to succeed. People may despise you, colleagues may doubt your abilities, friends will betray you, loved ones are going to leave you in desperation but all these must happen to make you stronger for the battle ahead. Never quite, just be focused and work harder. Remember life is warfare and not all situations are bound to favor your welfare. It is a fresh day with a   new beginning.   Begin with a new inspiration. Dare to make an impact. Always remember you're great. Be the difference you expect to see in the world.

Your background has nothing to do with your future financial status. How your financial status becomes in the future is a decision and option solely reserved for your intellect.   Poverty is not an inheritance but rather a decision we make based on our thoughts. We choose to be poor and wealthy depending on what we think and act upon. Even those have the rare privilege or opportunity to inherit the wealth of a relation or parent are also faced with the option of maintaining the legacy or destroying based on the decisions, steps, and actions they take.   Proper management skills will make them maintain the legacy whereas extravagant and irresponsible spending may cause them to waste the wealth down the drain. The potential to make wealth has been given to us and only our mind-set will help us activate it.   Our ability to think critically and make sound decisions is key to unveiling and activating these potentials. Like a sword can be used to attack and defend...

Everyone wishes to be successful come what may. Some are not concerned about the means by which their success is achieved. Be it legal or legit or illegal, dubious, and evil. Not even the welfare of others is taken into consideration as they seek to progress in their various fields of endeavor. Why would you want to be successful if it will only benefit your selfish interest and not the people around you? God blesses us not because of our interest but for the interest of all around us else, that blessing becomes useless. As we strive so hard to attain success, let us try as much as possible to lay behind a remarkable legacy that will set us apart from the crowd. The desire to be successful is not a bad feeling but the way that success is attained is the problem.   Success is supposed to bring fulfillment, integrity, dignity, self-respect, and happiness.   Gaining it through dubious means only comes to accomplish the opposite of the stated values. Success can be achieve...

YOU ARE LORD, by Basky Elton is a God-centered gospel song that gives an impeccable descriptive view of the personality of God. It is worship and spirit inspired song that can set the believer in the spirit of worship. ANTICIPATE TO GET INSPIRED. DROPPING SOON!!! DROPPING IN MAY ANOTHER GOSPEL BANGER BY EL BASKY ELTON...

Secret 1: Everyone you marry has a weakness. No spouse is perfect, the one who comes in all shades of perfection is the one who is alive in your spouse, and that person is God. So if you focus on your spouse's weaknesses you will never get the best out of his or her strength. See, the couples that last are the ones who magnify each others strength, rather than the weaknesses. Secret 2: Everyone has a dark history. No one is an angel. When you get married or you want to get married stop digging into someone's past. What matters most is the present life of your partner. Old things have passed away. Forgive and forget. Focus on the present and the future you are building together. Secret 3: Every marriage has its own challenges. Marriage is not a bed of roses. Every good marriage has gone through its own test of blazing fire. True love proves in times of challenges. Fight for your marriage. Fight, Fight, Fight until the enemy steps out of the ring. Make up your mind to stay with y...

Life is not fair says the poor man, life is a very beautiful gift from God says the rich man. To me, I think the problem is not about life itself but rather the condition we found ourselves in. Our decisions decide our conditions. Your everyday decisions gather together to form your tomorrow's life condition. No matter what condition you are in now, your today's decision will decide whether you be happy or still be crying tomorrow. Your life is not defined by the condition you are in now but rather the decision you are making now. Choose wisely, decide prudently and life will respond favorably in your favor...  "YOUR DECISIONS DEFINE YOUR PERSONALITY." LAWEH K. SEDEM

Don't break a bird's wings and tell it to fly. Don't break a heart and then tell it to love. Don't break a soul and tell it to be happy. Don't see the worst in someone and expect them to see the best in you. Don't judge people and expect them to stand firmly by your side. Don't play with fire and expect not to get burned. Life is all about giving and taking. You cannot expect to give hate and expect love in return.  You cannot expect to give bad and receive good. So, if you are willing to see a positive change in your life, you must be willing to be that change itself. "THE CHANGE WE EXPECT TO SEE IN THIS WORLD MUST BE US." MAHATMA GANDHI

Life is not going to be fair with you. Things are bound to go wrong and wayward. Some plans will disappoint you, humans have the tendency to fail you, your beloved ones will betray you, you will be despised by several people, somethings are not going to be the way you expected them to be. In the midst of all these negativities, all you need to do is stay positive and hope for the best. The right to do is not remain bitter and have all sorts of negative perceptions about life and see life from the very worst perspectives. NO, that isn't going to do any good than rather complicate the problem and increase the gravity of the harm being caused. The very best thing to do in situations such as this and any other bad situation is to remain calm and stay positive. Without a sense of positivity and the right state of mind, you can not adequately combat the huddles and troubles of life.  Always remain positive even when things go in the opposite way. Going wrong with the very things th...

WHAT A GENERATION We do things we so much detest. We follow things we don't understand. We love lies but pretend to love the truth. We do things based on our selfish ambitions and gains. We are living in someone's shadow but we claim to live to our will. We think that our life shouldn't be anyone's business. We always talk about someone hating us but what do we have? Everyone will have an enemy but this our generation exaggerates about having enemies..when we have nothing. We love money and like keeping it, we have a relationship to keep but we break it. We overlook and underrate matters. We have become too egocentric that we are now under the selfish rule. We admire peoples things and achievement but we don't wanna work hard. We have dreams but they have been buried by our pride and procrastination. We can't live a day without talking about someone and the worst of this situation is that most of what we say are bad things rather than good. NB: Never talk ab...

Life is a journey of impartation and impact making. Notwithstanding, it is either you are making an impact or you making income (i.e. earning to make a living). Many are consumed in the activities of this world such that they forget the true purpose, aim, goal, reason, and mandate of life. Many are trapped in the insatiable quest to make more money in life come what may. The more they seem to make much money, the greater the influence money exerts on them. They turn to drastically turn away from their divine mandate trading them with the desire to acquire all the pleasures of this world. Everything we indulge ourselves in this journey of life should be a cause worthy of impact making and not only money-earning. The impact we make in life brings to light our accomplishments when we are no more. They serve as the pillars and backbone for our footprints or legacies we live behind wherever we go. DARE TO BE A DIFFERENCE. DARE TO MAKE AN IMPACT,

something magnanimously happens when you give yourself wholly away while worshipping God is a spirit and hence to experience him in worship, we must serve and worship Him in truth and in spirit. We get to experience His glorious presence and Holiness in the right dimension. The glorious and highly revered presence of the creator can only be felt in a holy place. This holy place maybe our hearts, a temple, or a place of worship. The magnificent presence of God can also be activated through intense prayer. The glorious presence of God is a complete package that comes with many fittings of the HOLY SPIRIT. The fittings of the spirit are available to all believers who seek to operate in the spiritual realm. Spirituality in worship is an essential and invaluable element of the Christian faith as it makes room for the manifestation of God's word in one's life.
