Good morning!

Revelation 21:5 (KJV) And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.

As we step into this new day, let’s remember that God is in the business of making things new. He can turn our mourning into dancing, our ashes into beauty, and our trials into triumphs. He can make us new creations, giving us new hearts and putting a new spirit within us.

So, no matter what we’re facing today, let’s trust in God’s promise to make all things new. Let’s look forward to the new things He will do in our lives, in our families, in our communities, and in our world.

May this spiritual lesson guide us throughout the day. Have a blessed day! 🙏

ZRA, DEC uncover retrieves K9.4M Gold scam entangled company

The company, where Kasanda holds significant roles as a shareholder and director, allegedly funneled unexplained funds from overseas sources without fulfilling tax obligations.
Following an in-depth investigation into the tax compliance of AFME Metal Exchange Limited, authorities revealed a substantial assessment of over K52.4 million.
To safeguard tax revenue, a notice was issued under the VAT Act (cap 331), Customs and Excise Act (cap 322), and the Income Tax Act (cap 323), aiming to forfeit K9,433,000. found in a bank account held by AFME Metal Exchange Limited.
According to a joint statement issued by ZRA corporate communications Manager Oliver Nzala and DEC public relations officer Mwenge Mulenga, DEC blocked the account, and ZRA seized the funds to offset the total assessment of K52.4 million owed based on the investigation into its tax compliance.
"This serves as a warning to all entities not complying with the law that Law Enforcement Agencies, through the Inter-Agency Framework, will visit them. All taxpayers are, therefore, encouraged to comply with tax laws," the statement read. https://kalemba.news/.../zra-dec-uncover-retrieves-k9-4m.../

The Seventh-day Adventist Church youth curriculum recognizes the importance of holistic development. Alongside the core focus on soul-winning, it encourages young people to engage in activities that promote fellowship, joy, and personal growth. Embracing a balanced approach, it supports a variety of fun and wholesome experiences that contribute to the overall well-being of the youth.

Balancing fun activities alongside soul-winning is crucial for several reasons. Firstly, it creates a positive and inclusive environment that attracts and retains youth involvement. Fun activities provide a platform for building strong, supportive relationships among young individuals, fostering a sense of community.

Incorporating enjoyable elements like the beach visiting we undertook during the NZUC Youth Congress in Samfya was to prevent burnout and maintain enthusiasm in our youths, thisbalance recognizes that spiritual growth is complemented by emotional and social well-being.

A Secret Tool for Young Leaders.

With this, people will support you, skill gaps aside. They will invest in you. The key? Attitude! Here are 3 tools I use in building a good attitude.

1. Stay Humble: This will earn you respect, help you build lasting connections, and open doors for collaboration.

Disregard no one, if you know more than others then teach & mentor. If you know less then learn & listen.

2.Embrace Learning: Knowledge is the biggest differentiator, know enough to know that you don't know everything. Learning will propel you with fresh ideas and adaptable strategies.

3. Skip Complaints: Every time you complain you surrender leadership to another who will not complain but take initiative. Kill this! Be solution focused and not complaint led.

Bonus: Gratitude: Cultivate gratitude daily. It shifts focus to positives, fostering a resilient & optimistic mindset in business challenges.

James 4:10
Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.
Amen 🙏 ❤️
