WEALTH

  I believe that wealth is not a mindset… Mindset in the sense of what this world tells you to believe and declare for yourself… like you telling yourself, “I am wealthy. I am rich… and the likes” Wealth is a mind that is set on one's knowledge of God and the activation of his/her inheritance in Christ Jesus which is birthed from a relationship with Him. The world tells you to believe that you are rich and to call positive things towards yourself… in the case of the Law of Attraction. But Christianity tells you about the Source of this wealth and what you have (which is already in existence for you by virtue of your relationship with the Source). Christianity shows you that you are a Royal and as such, entitled to a lifetime of benefits drawn from the vast treasury of His riches. This should get you thinking… But see… Do not now seek God because you want to amass wealth for yourself on this Earth. Don’t forget that He is God and He knows all things.

PHASES

Through all the changing scenes of life, In trouble and in joy, the praises of my God shall still My heart and tongue employ. -Nahum Tate and Nicholas Brady One of the most valuable lessons my earthly father taught me is the principle of phases. When I was younger and in my teen, I was very rebellious. I didn’t know why I was acting the way I was…it was pretty much uncomfortable and it seemed like I was on top of the world at the same time. On one of my bouts of rebellion, I recall vividly my father telling me that he is very much aware of the phase I am in…he told me that in time, it would pass. It did pass. This period has been more of a silent one for me. I am constantly i n a place of silence and attentiveness. By Grace, I find it that as I keep silent, I hear more. I know that sometimes, when my mother looks at me, she wonders what exactly is going on in my life… sometimes I do too… My father, on the other hand, reminded me of the principle of

WINDOWS

I didn’t intend to post anything on Sharing Life today but I feel the need to write on this. WINDOWS I am sure you may think you have an idea of what I am about to write about… maybe Windows to prosperity or breakthrough. If I should write about these, it will be a means of reminding you of the access you have as a Child of The King. Today, it is different. I want us to reflect on the Windows for demonic access and manipulation. After my deliverance, one of the teachings I was given was the teaching on Windows. Well, at that time, I understood to an extent but to God’s glory, I am growing in the understanding of this… thank You Jesus . Let me share what happened to me last night… So yesterday I visited my cousin and I got some movies from her to watch as a ‘treat’. I gave her my specs. I told her I wanted a romantic comedy… nothing vulgar. She gave me the movies and I left to my residence. I played a teen movie she gave me and as was expected, it had scenes of sexual immoral

The Teachable Spirit 1

I used to think that in order for me to be fit to take up any task, I had to be fully prepared… I mean 100% prepared. As I sit in bed to reflect on this thought, I realise that this assumption is not 100% fact. I have come to realise that sometimes one is ‘prepared’ on the job. I reckon that the more you work/ practice/ do your given task, the more you become and mature into your duty. But one thing I was taught by the Great Teacher is this: It takes a person with a teachable spirit to be entrusted with such roles. Have you ever wondered why some people get jobs you feel they are not worthy of attaining or qualified for? The reason why some of these people get such mandates is because of the spirit they possess- the spirit that acknowledges its ignorance and thirsts for growth and knowledge; the spirit that is open to rebuke in order that they may attain their fullest potential. As you retire to bed this night I want you to reflect on this as you relate this post to y

WHY SO LONG?!!!

There is a family I have known for a couple of years now. Very recently, they were privileged to own a self-contained apartment. This was a giant leap from the single-room apartment they had lived in all the while. Like normal expectation, I figured that they would move into the apartment right away but that wasn’t to be so. I saw them re-paint the building… then it was followed by the fixing of cabinets, then the carpets, furniture, etc. All these took time. I was wondering why they had kept so long in getting the apartment ready. I felt that since they had waited for so long to get the place, they may as well get the refurbishing done quickly… like in a week or two so that they could move in. Lord forgive my thinking. In my contemplation, these thoughts were impressed on me. Sometimes and many times, actually, what we have been searching for may be right i n front of our very eyes but the thing is that it is just not ready for the taking. Let me bring it d
