Welcome to 2024!

It is with great pleasure and honour that I join thousands and millions across the globe to celebrate this Apostle of Faith, Bishop David Olaniyi Oyedepo...
Happy 68th Birthday sir!

Thank you for being a blessing to me and this generation! We are grateful to God for your life.

7 DEADLY SINS
In 1925, the then-Indian leader Mahatma Gandhi came up with seven universal deadly sins. These things are, however, very true in our age and time.

1. Politics without principle
We live in a time where there is a lot of political aspiration without principle, no guiding principle. Men can do anything to get political positions, not minding if they hurt their neighbors. Gandhi said having politics without truth(s) to justly dictate the action creates chaos, which ultimately leads to violence. Gandhi called these missteps "passive violence," which "fuels the active violence of crime, rebellion, and war.’

2. Education (knowledge) without character
We now have educated robbers not with guns but in offices. Educated but void of character (lacking the basic morals of society). Dishonesty, unfaithfulness, greed, unkindness, pride, insincerity, and arrogance, among others, are the epitome of many educated people today.

3. Pleasure without conscience
We all desire pleasure. It is not our fault, that is how we were wired, but sadly, people desire pleasure regardless of how it comes. People wanting pleasure and killing their conscience in the process is one of the major undoings of this generation. People are desirous of pleasure regardless of what it costs the other person. Pleasure should be enjoyed responsibly.

4. Science without humanity
In this age and time, there are great inventions that we celebrate and that have in no small way made living easier. But there are a lot of inventions that are initiated without the consciousness of humanity at their heart. With this invention, where there are different nuclear weapons and other weapons of mass destruction being produced-the question becomes, are these nuclear weapons important for humanity or for the sake of science?

5. Commerce (business) without morality (ethics).
Morality has been taken out of the context of business. Excessive profit, undue inflation, hoarding of goods, and so on have become the order of the day because there are no ethics. How we treat each other, the spirit of benevolence, service, and contribution matters in commerce.

6. Wealth without work.
Very true! Presently, we all want to be rich, but nobody wants to work. The laziest of all want to be wealthy without working. The Bible says “wealth gotten by vanity shall diminish”. Wealth should be acquired through work.

7. Religion (worship) without sacrifice
Across different places of worship. Many claim allegiance to God but seem not to be interested in sacrifice. They want an easy life that has no sacrifice in its compendium. When the need for sacrifice arises, they begin to complain. Truth be told, worship without sacrifice is a waste of executive time.

Thank you, Apostle...

WHO TOLD YOU?

Questions, as they say, are the seed for an answer. If you need an answer regarding any issue of concern, you have to sow the seed of questions.

However, the question here is "who told you?" This is one of the foremost questions asked in the Bible and surprisingly it was the creator of the universe, God, who asked this question.

Most of us are familiar with this story. Adam and Eve went to hide because of the sin they committed. When God could not find them where He expected them to be, He called Adam and asked where are you?

Adam responded and God replied to him with a powerful question, not why did you do that? Rather, God asked, "Who Told You?".

Quick inference from the above storyline is that you are where you are because of what you have been told. There is a piece of information within your mental space that keeps you at that echelon of life you are in right now.

In a society like ours, right from childhood, most of what you receive from the people around you is the story of limitation, impossibility, and failure and by this information, you have been trained subconsciously to believe negative things about yourselves. This has been a pullback for you every time you attempt to move forward.

Who told you it is impossible?

Who told you that you are a failure?

Who told you that you are too small?

Who told you that the dream is unachievable?

Regardless of whatever you have been told and whoever told you. If what they told you does not resonate with your dreams, your inner witness, your vision and ultimately the Word of God, it is a lie.

No matter the level you are at right now, if you can change the information that enters you, you are ready for the next level.

The truth is that negative information is everywhere but...

You have the responsibility of choosing who you listen to.

You have the responsibility of choosing what you listen to.



Till I Write To You Again,

Best Wishes,

Mark

At the beginning of any and everything you do... Put God first..

Your perspective matters a lot...
What do you see?
Choose to see right from where you are...
