7 RULES FOR 2022

 As you prepare to move into 2022, do yourself a favour...

1. Take care of your health...your body, your soul, your spirit!                          There is an epidemic of mental health issues right now...so scrutinize the kind of information you allow into your heart! Guard your heart diligently...that's when you will enjoy God's peace!

"So above all, guard the affections of your heart, for they affect all that you are. Pay attention to the welfare of your innermost being, for from there flows the wellspring of life."Proverbs 4:23 TPT Protect your emotional health, choose your relationships, determine your meditations...! Anything that interferes with your peace must be jettisoned!

2. Do not compete with anyone for as the saying goes-"Those that matter do not care...and those that care do not matter'!

'...and comparing  themselves to themselves, lack understanding....'.    2Cor 10:12 HCSB                                       You have nothing to prove to anyone but yourself, you are not in competition with anyone but yourself!You are responsible for becoming a better, more skillful, more productive, more effective version of yourself ...for your benefit! 

You do not need to 'Keep up with the Jones' or the 'Kardashians'!                   You just need to enjoy being you, in that time and space!

3. Take a vacation from stress...that includes things, situations, relationships and 'situationships' that affect your peace of mind! Abraham was told to leave his father's house...for his own advantage! Genesis 12:1 AMPC             God enforces change for your advantage and benefit! 

4. Put God's word in your spirit!            The word that works for you is the word that is sown in the fabric of your spirit! The word of God has the capacity to give illumination, clarity, instructions and direction! It makes the obscure conspicuous! It will birth the desires of your heart! Keep speaking it, keep saying it, you will see it come to pass!

The word of God protects your heart from all the disillusioning information, misinformation and disinformation trafficked by social media. 

5. Reduce your screen time!              Except social media is your business, you owe yourself a duty to manage how much time you spend on it!                   The greatest scam is to allow social media determine your mental and emotional well-being! 

6. Practice gratitude...it is a stress killer!To God, to your family, to friends, to your staff, to your relatives, to strangers....! Never let entitlement creep into your subsconscious!              Gratitude to God takes away the power of overwhelming situations!                     It is you telling God; 'I did not fly solo,    I know You did it! I return the glory!    .   I vocalize my appreciation!                  You have done it before, I trust you for the next level'!

7. Expect the miraculous! Even if it is just a few hours to 2022, God will still shock you with that testimony! Be expectant and thank Him in advance!

...And Lot Went With Him!

One of the greatest miracles that a person can be given is breaking out of a relationship. I use the expression 'breaking out' because most people do not deliberately walk out of a relationship. It takes an intervention completely outside the control of the affected party for them to realize that it is time to say good bye. Everyone has a relationship which needs to be broken out  of. The relationship that is my preoccupation here is the one that keeps you from being everything that you should be...one that is addictive, dehumanizes  and abuses physically, emotionally or mentally. Sometimes there is need to momentarily step back from the relationship in order to seek help, strength or heal; and in some cases, to re-strategize  and deploy external forces to control or bring a stop to the unsavory situation God told Abraham to end a relationship! He was instructed to leave his Country, father's house, kindred and relatives in Genesis 12:1-3AMP [1] 'NOW in Haran the L...

HOW ARE YOU DOING?

 So...I watched Being Mary Jane today. I am not really a fan because I do not agree with some views carried on the show but today's episode spoke to me which is why this post!  Lots of times people ask us, 'how are you doing'? And the response is 'I am fine', 'great', ‘absolutely amazing'! Sometimes we quote our religious refrains ''I am blessed and highly favored', 'blessed beyond measure', ' I am lifted'...and on and on....No offense I am a believer and I speak the language too...! But the truth is, you are not fine! You lie and say you are happy, you smile and say things are fine...but you are carrying a heavy burden, you are carrying a weight that you cannot share! You are hurting, and the burden is crushing you under its weight...! If you do not speak soon, that weight will snuff the life out of you!.  The world we live in is increasing becoming everyone for himself and God for us all. Even the African community which is ...

TURN YOUR PROPHESY TO A WEAPON

 One of the greatest books that impacted me as a university undergraduate is a book called WHERE THERE IS NO DOCTOR - A VILLAGE HEALTH CARE MANUAL written in 1970 by David Werner.  It is compendium of hacks that can be deployed when faced with emergency situations that occur in everyday life in the absence of medical personnel.  The connection would seem farfetched   until you understand the trend of my thought.  You see, I applied it as an undergraduate in the university leaving home for the first time in my life.  I had been sheltered, never travelled anywhere and I found myself on my own  for the first time.  I decided I would learn to be my own doctor and flowing from that my own prophet! we are a generation that are constantly spoon-fed. We have come to live this way and struggle with growth because we know  no other life outside of it.  We do not search the scriptures for ourselves. We wait for Sunday morning to receive, recei...
