In this life, this fact of life is very true, “life is not fair, it does not offer to us what we deserve but only what into demand”. That is to say, our life is like a computer, what it gives us back is based on our input into it.
It is important to reflect on this fact because some are waiting to receive out of life what they have not put in their life. This is exactly the same as waiting to receive a huge dividend from First Bank of Nigeria while one has not invested in First Bank.
That goes to confirm that for every change we expect in life, there must definitely be something we must do to propel or effect such change. For instance, we all desire turnaround and breakthrough, but the question is “are we ready and prepared for such turnaround and breakthrough”?
This equally points out to the words of Bishop David Oyedepo who often say that “it is foolishness to repeatedly do the same thing yet expect a different result”
In reality, this is exactly what many of us are doing, we are praying and waiting for a positive turnaround and break, yet we are not doing anything being prepared for such a turnaround and breakthrough.
One fact that is equally necessary to point out is that when what we expect out of life is not forthcoming, we turn around to blame others for our woes or failures.
Not only blame others, but we equally envy and accuse those who paid the prize for their own turnaround and breakthrough, saying that we don’t know what they are using.
This is why it is said that life is a battlefield and only those who are ready and prepared to battle enjoy things that go with conquest, while those who refuse to battle are relegated to the background.
Moreover, turn around and breakthroughs are at the level. Those who do ordinary things enjoy ordinary turnarounds and breakthroughs, while those who do extraordinary things end up enjoying extraordinary turnarounds and breakthroughs.
That is to say, that the level of turnaround and breakthrough we enjoy is determined by the level of our preparedness to pay the price for the kind of turnaround and breakthrough we expect out of life.
Those who are prepared to go the extra mile and as well as do extraordinary things enjoy the extraordinary blessings that go with it. Meaning that the choice is ours to make.
Another fact of life to point out is that some are busy toiling and expecting a turnaround and breakthrough, but what they are doing is not relevant to their turnaround and breakthrough.
Or instance, the majority is a slave to their smartphones, they used to chat endlessly on Facebook or porn movies or visit other irrelevant sites that are contributing nothing to their destiny.
Personally, I used to enjoy action movies and had many of them stored on my hard disk. However, listening to the message of Apostle Johnson Suleman, who asked in that message what all the action or entertainment, movies had added to my destiny over these years.
I observed that this is true, even if you watch a movie or entertainment for 24 hours none stop that it will add nothing to your destiny. For that reason, I formatted the hard disk and replaced the action movies with messages from different men of God.
Listening to these messages helps to keep my spirit man on fire all the time. That is, instead of spending my date on worldly movies that do not profit my destiny, I now spend it downloading messages.
Another fact of life is that some have no time or interest in reading articles that could benefit their destiny, but prefer to visit sites that specialize in gossip or entertainment..
On this issue, black men are generally guilty of using this website as an example. While the American or Russians, etc., who are visiting the site as they found some useful materials there, my countrymen/women complain that my articles were long.
For that reason, the numbers of foreigners surpass by far the number of Nigerian readers. To Nigerians, I wish to say I owe them, no apology, and neither will I relent in writing articles God has inspired me to do so.
At the same time, I say a big thank you to my American and Russian friends and readers, what a great joy in my heart that I could be of service and that you could find some useful articles here.
In fact, I feel joyous always seeing the number of page views skyrocket as some visitors read as many articles as possible. I am equally noticing quite a good number of downloads from the site.
What that entails is that you are investing in your life and like Bishop David Oyedepo used to say, the level of personal investment we are making determines whether we will be a high-flier or not.
Apart from reading articles to better our destiny, we should equally invest in books and other helpful materials like listening to messages. That I have something to offer to my readers is simply because I am equally making some personal investments in myself.
This is because, as the saying goes, “you can never give out what you don’t have” and out of the heart, the mouth speaks. Finally, we must be conscious of what goes on in our hearts. Till I come your way again. Shalom!.
