STREAMS OF GREATNESS

YOU ARE SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL!  ======================== You need a healthy dose of self esteem to be great in life, otherwise, even when everyone around is seeing a wonderful woman, all you will keep seeing is an unfortunate, less privileged one. Whatever you will become in life starts with your perception of your self, how you see your self, the value you place on yourself, either you see yourself as a plus to this generation or a loss. If you will ever achieve a meaningful milestone, you must be your number one fan with apology to no one. You must be first to appreciate your qualities, abilities and capabilities. Be the first to appreciate your body shape, facial appearance and your carriage. Don't leave your validation in the hand of another man, they may be too jealous to let you realise that you are amazing, full of potentials and enviable qualities. Let that validation come from within you, it is a litmus test that tells you are ready to scale th...

BE FOCUSED  =========== Don't overwork yourself trying to please everyone. I tell you, once they are not for you, everything you do seems odd to them. If you take road A, not all will be pleased. If you take road B, not all will be pleased as well. So, be decisive and firm, having known what God wants for you. You shall ear a word behind you, saying, this is the way, walk therein, when you turn to the right and when you turn to the left. Twenty advisers may be around you, but let the voice of the Holy Spirit take preeminence. Having multitude around does not mean progress. Separating yourself from the crowd of indecisive people is helpful. There are times you just stand alone because you are persuaded and sure of whom and what you believe. You know what, John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say he has demon. The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say he is a glutton and a drunkard. Follow your course, set your ey...

BE GOD CONSCIOUS ================= When there is a change of life, thought, motive, mindset, when there is a paradigm shift, it's always obvious in the outlook, priorities and spoken word. When the attention of a man shift from himself to God, from things on earth to things above, from selfish lifestyle to impactful living, it always obvious. People around you may not say it to your face, but they know deep within them that something has changed about you. Exactly the reason you don't judge progress by the appraisal of man. Man is automatically wired to rebel against change. Man doesn't like to see or know that you are where they long to be, they will rather look away like they saw nothing. The one who lives an optimum life is the who understands and lives in this reality that we are saved not to live unto self any longer but unto God. It's not all about you but what God wants to wrought through your life and existence on earth. It...

SPIRITUAL GIFTS ASIDE, GODLY CHARACTER IS THE TRUE TEST OF MATURITY ========================== "A tongue speaking believer who is not disciplined in character with opposite sex, money, words, time, and so on is like a car without a brake leading towards a ditch"- P. Daniel. An undisciplined man is like a city without wall. It's not enough to abound in spiritual gifts, but also to be guided by the word. The extent to which you able to reflect Christ in your character is the true test of your maturity. In fact is better to go for a man or woman who has this hard core on the inside, stands for the truth embedded in the word, than a gifted babe, who abounds in gifts but zero character. Either you like it or not, you are one of the influential books your children will read on the subject of character. Hmmm! Character is something you hold fast to inside, and people see in you on the outside. More essentially, it is what God sees in you always. Ch...

WISE UP AND TAKE CHARGE  ===================== Few months into the relationship, you shifted your attention from God to brother and has suddenly become an idol you worship with your life. When bible study clashes with outing with brother, you gladly prefer to go with brother. You even give him excuses why it's not necessary you attend service, you were like 'I have always been attending, this one time of absenteeism will not kill. But you have done the same severally after then. In fact, you always enjoy praying with him and studying bible with him. Your own personal altar has shut down. This your change in priority is sudden and alarming. What happened to you? Who did this to you sister? Personal fellowship with God has been replaced with fellowship with brother. You have left the creator to worship His creature. In fact, you call brother first before morning devotion, and you are like 'I just want to hear your voice'. Do you think t...

CALL THIS HELP LINE ================== The word of God is the water that cleanses the soul. You can't give attention to the word of God and not be changed because the word is spirit and life. The Holy Spirit 🔥 quickens us unto righteousness via the activation of the word of God in us. I hear God saying to you, 'Son, daughter, I know where you are coming from, a place that exalts ideologies, ideas and opinions that are at cross purpose with the will of God for you, that is why I placed my Spirit within you to activate a dimension and lifestyle that is consistent with the mind of God for your existence. The Holy Spirit is beckoning to your soul and all its compartments: your will,  emotion, conscience and ambitions. He is saying to them, 'let us reason together, let's do the will of the Father. You have been trying to change your character, making determinations that you have never achieved for once, let's quit trying so hard to help ...

YOU ARE MADE WHOLE  =================== I dont know where you are coming from, what you have been through, what you suffered, the harsh times you endured, the lonely periods.  Maybe you were once shattered, battered, broken, used, and embittered. I surely may not know all these, but I am sure of one thing, If anyman is in Christ, he is a new creature, the old has passed and the new has come, entanglements destroyed, chains broken, life anew, justified, purified and made whole. You have come into the One who is before the beginning and in whom all things hold together. Not one, not two, but all things! Even that which you call the pieces of your life are all held together in Christ, held together to become whole again. You are now in Him who is able to step into your past like it was yesterday and turn your life around to your own amazement, for His glory alone and to the shame of the devil. When you are in Christ, your past becomes an a...

DON'T TRY TO BE UNIQUE ====================== Get it once and for all that you are a unique being, created for a unique purpose and unique life journey. Many a times we fall into error when we are trying to be who we are already, when we are trying to recreate what has already been created by God. Why not save that trying energy to bring out what you already have in you. Ofcourse, there is always room for improvement, but dont just discard your unique qualities in the process of trying to be unique. Its amazing when people say 'I want to try to be unique', and in the process of trying to be unique, we copy others consciously or unconsciouly. I came to tell you today that you are unique by default, believe me, no one can do anything the way you would do it, if you are in the scene. You speak uniquely, walk uniquely, smile uniquely, sing uniquely, do virtually all things in unique ways. Infact, no matter how alike the voice of two p...

ANTI-WORRY BAIL OUT =================== There is a system of operation in the kingdom that makes 'all these things' to follow you. This system of operation gives us this anti-worry principle that goes thus: SEEK FIRST HIS KINGDOM AND HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS. There is a guarantee for every one born of the Spirit to have all their days void of worry and fear. There is a reward system, it is the reward system of God, which is at cross purpose with the reward system of man. Beloved, worry will wear us out, becloud our sense of right judgement, blind your eyes from seeing that one more step you need to take, that extra oil you need to take along, it will close your heart to that one thing needful. Praise God for this anti-worry bail out! Let the desires of your heart be in alignment with the purposes of heaven. When you are after what God wants for you in all situation, He supplies without delay. The rightness of God must overshadow your decisions, aff...

DEPENDENCY RECIPE ================== There's no sense in coming up with your own ideas when it's only God's counsel that will stand- Bob Sorge I love the system of operation of God, especially when it comes to His dealings with us 'humans'.  When we take a step towards Him, He creates a new gap so that we will never think we have arrived. As we discover this depth, we get to see that there is one more new step on the ladder. We will ever have to depend on Him no matter what depth we have seen or touched. No man will ever see the end of His power.  A relationship of pure dependency! Remove the Spirit of God from a man and then see how common and useless man is, mere clay with so much weaknesses that will ever birth error consistently. Alignment with His purposes is impossible, unattainable, unrealisable without the Spirit of God. You know what, I am so glad that same Spirit that raised Jesus abides in us, quickening us unt...

BEYOND YOUR TEARS... =================== Do you remember that period you were in the midst of difficulties and you thought all hope was lost? But you heard that still small voice telling you this is the way, walk therein. At a time it seemed you were the only single, unengaged sister walking the face of the earth, but when you least expected it, a man after God's own heart showed up. Probably you were abused, raped during childhood, but you don't look like where you are coming from because Jesus interrupted your life. Admission didn't click on time and those waiting years were frustrating, look at you now, you are now a graduate. You were involved in a ghastly motor accident, you thought that was the end, but you are still bubbling with life till now. Thank God you had mentors in your life that came in right on time, that man would have destroyed your destiny. Maybe you were even in that relationship for years, but now you are gratef...

BE BEHIND THE SCENE WHAT YOU ARE ON THE PULPIT ========================== Paul said follow me as I follow Christ. Heaven is in need of men whose Christain lives are so transparent that you see Jesus in them always, Christians who are who they claim to be on the pulpit as they are behind the scene. The kingdom of God is not a matter of talk, but of power. It is the power of the HolySpirit of God at work on the inside of us that transforms our mind, thereby conforming us to God's image, helping us to live that life in Christ. Being a different person behind the scene does nothing but waters down your ministration in the heart of men and the more this becomes known, the more your relevance becomes crippled, the word of God you speak will no longer have a grip on the people. Imagining coming on stage to minister to people, of which some of them are aware of your different life behind the scene, and you don't even know that they know. My dear brother a...
