STRIKE A BLOW TO YOUR BODY AND MAKE IT YOUR SLAVE BY ADEDIRE ADEKANBI


STRIKE A BLOW TO YOUR BODY AND MAKE IT YOUR SLAVE 
BY ADEDIRE ADEKANBI

If we will ever so win the prize, demand is placed upon us to strike a blow to our body and make it our slave.

Have you ever experienced this, that shortly after preaching a message, the devil confronts you with a temptation that has to do with the message you just preached?

Writers in the house, have you ever written on a particular topic, and the devil brings a temptation that has to do with the write up you just shared? Have you been overcoming or falling helplessly?

No wonder Paul says in 1 Corinthians 9:27 that, “But I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified”.

Preaching, singing, writing a particular message does not automatically make you immune to falling in that same area of life. In fact, once you preach a message, you become the number 1 target of the enemy in that area.

That is why we must be on guard and never take the risk of disobeying the Holy Spirit, not for a second. Don’t even try to see what the consequences looks like. It’s a journey leading to a dark place and the end thereof is likewise “dark”.

LET GOD HAVE HIS WAY BY ADEDIRE ADEKANBI

LET GOD HAVE HIS WAY  BY ADEDIRE ADEKANBI Human beings by nature have weaknesses. That’s why we need God, show me a man that is void of any weakness and I will show you a man who needs God for nothing. Weaknesses are area of inadequacies in ones life which we all have, excluding none. Where the problem comes in is inability to identify these weaknesses or knowing them and pretending as if they are not there. Taking eyes off them and in a bit to make up for them, we establish our own righteousness. We give excuses for our inabilities and explain away our failures. We have one thousand and one reasons why we behave in a particular way or talk in a particular manner. Have you ever heard words like: I love that sister but she talks too much, she doesn’t know how to talk at all, she has mouth diarrhea. I love that brother, he can preach very well but he is very lousy. She does not have control over her anger, She can get angry anywhere, anyhow, any momen...

TO YOUR BEAUTY ADD VIRTUE BY ADEDIRE ADEKANBI

TO YOUR BEAUTY ADD VIRTUE  BY ADEDIRE ADEKANBI Your  beauty is a misfit when you don’t carry God. When your beauty is void of virtue, it is likened to a bird with beautiful feathers but lacks the capacity to fly. Once has He spoken, but twice have I heard, that beauty without Godly substance, virtue and character is vain. I love this young, dark inspiring lady but I choose to look beyond the beauty. Rather, look inward and bring out something substantial, worthwhile to offer my generation. I believe Jesus did not go through all He went through just to make me a nonentity or a robot. He has imputed in me greatness, I refuse to live a life of nothingness, living for nothing and pursuing nothing. The days we are in are full of evil but you can choose to be a shining light, a light that is bright enough to eradicate darkness totally. You can choose to bring out the princess in you to intimidate the prince of this world. You can choose to soak yours...

SISTERS, CARRY YOURSELF WITH DIGNITY BY ADEDIRE ADEKANBI

SISTERS, CARRY YOURSELF WITH DIGNITY BY ADEDIRE ADEKANBI OK! So, he is your friend and you spend half of your day playing with him, and this you do severally, it has turned to your everyday practice, what kind of play please? I desperately want to know. Even without touching you, you have presented yourself as cheap. Anything that takes your time takes your life. I know you are thinking already that I am over stretching this. Can’t we play in peace? What I am expressly passing across is exactly what you have read, time is life, set your priorities right, we will see it in your decisions and choices. I know he is your friend, but let him know you as someone who values time, a disciplined lady, not someone anyone can have around at anytime. You can't be always available and yet be productive. Anyone who controls your time controls your life. We have too many things to get done within a short period of time. Be a good manager of time. He is your friend a...

ABEGI! STOP THIS DECEPTION, JUST TELL US YOUR REGRETS BY ADEDIRE ADEKANBI

ABEGI! STOP THIS DECEPTION, JUST TELL US YOUR REGRETS  BY ADEDIRE ADEKANBI So, the last time you told a friend that you are still a virgin, she said things like “and so?”, “ who you help”, “and what’s the big deal”, “ virgin Mary”, “old school”, “mummy's girl”. Who you help ke? You are helping generations to stand strong because you are a light which cannot be kept under a bushel. You are a role model to your unborn children, they will hear how you were able to stand strong, despite the temptations and shine as light even in the midst of thick darkness. You say what’s the big deal, it is a big deal that you are faithful to God and to your future husband though you have not met him. Listen to me, your friend needs help o, she is hurting inside, she is wishing she could turn back the hands of time, she is dying inside, she is in pain and lonely, she is only using boldface as a defense mechanism, she is desperately in need of an accomplice. When someone c...
