Jesus means everything to me. What about you?

"Everything about the "black" man is not entirely bad. In the same way, everything about the "white" man is not entirely good." As there are certain aspects of the black man's way of life that may be considered indecent, so there are certain aspects of the white man's way of life that can also be considered indecent. No race is entirely perfect. Only God is perfect.

"And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments." Matthew 19:17 KJV

It is Thanksgiving without limits.

Join us give thanks!

Let no one imprison your mind.

Weekend Joke!
An old farmer wrote a letter to his son in prison. “Son, this year I will not plant cassava and yam because I can’t dig the field, I know if you were here you would have helped me”. The son replied his father “Dad don’t even think of digging the field because that’s where I buried the money I stole”.

The POLICE and PRISON’S on reading this letter went early in the morning and dug the whole field in search of the money but nothing was found. The next day the son smuggled a note to his father “Dad you can now plant your cassava and yam this is the best I can do from here.”

Dad replied “haaa my son, you are too powerful indeed, even in prison you still command police men to work for me. I was so surprised to see the IGP and his team holding hoes and shovels, digging my farm. I will write to you when I want to harvest.

MORAL LESSON:
Nobody can imprison your mind. Think big !!!!!

Life Principles.

He who leads and clamours for leadership positions must first learn submission. He who needs submission must first learn fellowship. He who regards and sue for fellowship must first learn relationship.

He who wants to foster and promote relationship must first learn friendship. He who seeks friendship must first understand partnership. He who desires partnership must first practice fairness.

He who promises fairness must embrace integrity. He who proclaims integrity must eschew hypocrisy. He who hates hypocrisy must ensure he develops trust. He who expects trust from another must be transparent and show transparency.

He who glorifies transparency must make sure he has nothing to hide. One day every hidden things shall be laid bare and brought to limelight and every secret shall be made known. Life is give and take! The pendulum must swing.

It is actually my birthday today! Stay blessed and stay safe.

He also made a suggestion of the right approach to addressing the situation: "...now let us go thither; peradventure he can shew us our way that we should go." They went in search of the asses that were lost but returned with the crown of kingship. That day, a declaration was made by Samuel over Saul that changed everything about his life from the son of "Kish" to the first "King" of Israel.

The scriptures says in Deuteronomy 5:16 KJV, "Honour thy father and thy mother, as the Lord thy God hath commanded thee; that thy days may be prolonged, and that it may go well with thee, in the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee."

Honour precipitates longevity, wellness as well as well-being.

Do you know that you have a responsibility to ensure that nothing negative should happen to your crown bearers. Should they fall while bearing your crown, it may be broken and that could be disastrous. Do not disrespect nor mo**st them because your honour is in their hands. If what is in their hands falls, it will take you some more years to recover. Remember Mephibosheth:

"And Jonathan, Saul's son, had a son that was lame of his feet. He was five years old when the tidings came of Saul and Jonathan out of Jezreel, and his nurse took him up, and fled: and it came to pass, as she made haste to flee, that he fell, and became lame. And his name was Mephibosheth." 2 Samuel 4:4 KJV

While the nurse who was assigned to minister to Mephibosheth ran with him in her hands because of the news of the death of Saul and Jonathan, in the process, Mephibosheth who was supposed to be the heir apparent to the throne fell from her hands and he was crippled.

In the light of the foregoing, our prayers today should be, Lord,

1. help me to identify and recognize my crown bearers.

2. I will not disrespect my crown bearers.

3. My crown will not fall from the hands of my crown bearers.

Yesterday, I made this post: "Very often those who crown Kings do not look like kings and may never become kings but they can help you wear the crown."

If that is true, then, the first question we need to ask is, "am I predestined, entitled and qualified to wear a crown?" If the answer is in the affirmative, the first huddle to cross is how to identify and recognize those who will help you wear the crown. The truth is that they are there but may not look like the crown bearers or the custodians of the crown. The ability to recognize them, work closely with them and giving them the due honour takes you closer to your coronation. Honour is the key.

There are three scriptures to be considered:

"Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name." Psalm 91:14 KJV

Take note of these areas:

1. Because he hath set his love on me.

2. Because he hath known my name.

"Thou shalt rise up before the hoary head, and honour the face of the old man, and fear thy God: I am the Lord." Leviticus 19:32 KJV

3. Honour the face of the old man.

4. Fear thy God

1 Samuel 9:6 KJV
And he said unto him, Behold now, there is in this city a man of God, and he is an honourable man; all that he saith cometh surely to pass: now let us go thither; peradventure he can shew us our way that we should go.

The only thing that made Saul to ever become king in Israel and ascend the throne as the first king of Israel was because he was in the company of a servant who knew the value and the capacity of Samuel, the first ever king maker in the land of Israel. Though there have never been a king in Israel and no one would have thought that Samuel had the capacity to crown a king but God in his supremacy had already prepared him for that unique, specific and peculiar assignment. The servant saw Samuel in his true worth & said, "there is in this city a man of God, and he is an honourable man; all that he saith cometh surely to pass." In your own "city", there is a crown bearer. You need to identify him/her.

"Very often those who crown Kings do not look like kings and may never become kings but they can help you wear the crown."
