Loneliness Is A Disease, It Makes You Lonely
Aug 18th
“LONELINESS IS THE MOST TERRIBLE POVERTY”. MOTHER TERESA.
We are so grateful to GOD that we are not alone. For years we might have hidden within ourselves and were alone with our secrets, shame, and fears. But we have others around us, as much or as little as we need or want. We don t have to hide anything from them. Their are people with attitude of acceptance, encouragement, and good humor who can support us in ways we have never known if we open up to them. When we allow ourselves the luxury of that support, we are not only meeting our needs, we are letting the light of honesty and friendship into our lives. It feels good not to hide anymore.
And now it feels right, more natural. We are coming to accept and love our real selves as never before by sharing our secrets, and fears with others. Are you ashamed of your past? You can meet your pastor, who will counsel you and pray with you. Are you suffering from timidity? Then seek for a friend that you can trust, and share your fears with him. And also build your mind by feeding it with positive words, which generate positive thoughts that leads to a big heart. Are you limiting your potentials? Seek for a mentor who you can trust and humbly be his student.
Some truth about loneliness:
1. It makes you think negatively.
2. It makes your mind weak.
3. It makes you sad always.
4. It makes you judge thinks, and people wrongly.
5. IT MAKES YOU LONELY.
You Can Pass The Test
Aug 16th
A test is a medium of promotion. Different people have different problems. Different people go through different test. I don’t know the kind of test you may be going through. But I have a mandate to declare to you that you can pass the test. No matter the nature of your test. You may be going through a test in your marriage, job, finance, health, family, faith, children, school, carrier, relationship, etc. I don’t really know which area of your life is going through a test. But the Bible says that we can do all things through Christ that strengthens us.
God is our architect. An architect designs buildings. There is no good builder who starts building by just digging the foundation of a house. No! He must first of all engage an architect, who draws the building. It is the architect who designs and dictates how much load the structure can possibly carry, more especially if it is a high rise building.
Before we were ever born, God already knew the kind of test that we will be subjected to. He says in Jeremiah 1:5 “Before I formed thee in the belly, I knew thee”. In another place He said, “For whom He did foreknew He also predestinate”(Romans 8:29). So God already knew every test, wall, obstacle, opposition, challenge, stumbling block that we will ever encounter before we were born. As a result of this He designed, endowed and packaged us with all the necessary potentials we will need for every test we will ever encounter before we were born. God knows our capability. He knows how much pain we can bear. He knows how far we can be stretched. He knows our elastic limits. He knows that if we are stretched beyond our limit, we will snap. The Bible says in 1Corinthians 10:13 “But God is faithful who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; But will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it”.
Whatever the test you are going through, God sent me to tell you that you can pass the test. You can survive the sickness. You can come out of debt. You can still be married. You can have a good job. You can still have children. You can be blessed. You can succeed. You can make it. You can begin again. Whatever you are going through is just a test, and you can pass the test. You’ve been designed, manufactured, packaged to pass any kind of test that you will ever encounter in life. YOU can pass the test.
When I first started typing this article, immediately I finished somebody’s leg touch the computer socket and the system went off. I didn’t know what actually happened but I lost everything I had typed. So I had to start all over again. Mid way to what I was typing, the cursor refused to move. So the system had to be restarted. Again, I lost everything the second time. I had to start all over again for the third time. I said that the devil is a liar! I must send these words across. I don’t know who needs it. And the devil knows that God wants to address somebody, so he was fighting to stop me from sending this article. But I made up my mind to send it anyway. The devil is a looser! And he has lost the battle forever. I can feel God encouraging and strengthening somebody through this article. That condition you are in will not destroy you. You are coming out of it. The devil can’t stop you. Remember, there is no mountain that you can’t climb. There is no river you can’t cross and no storm you can’t weather. You can pass the test! A test is just a medium for promotion.
