DISTRACTIONS

-

Young man, you have a great responsibility ahead. So you have a great preparation to do. Proper preparations precede glorious manifestations. Your time should be planned. Your activities should be well arranged. Your priorities must be in order. You should know how to balance all you do while taking great and deliberate caution against distractions. Distractions are disastrous ACTIONS. What is distracting you? What actions are you taking that are not necessary for your growth and you have to vehemently stop them? Once your path is known in your making process, beware of taking actions that are dangerous to your progress. Bad friends may be a distraction. Too much sleep may be a distraction. Movies may be. Games may be. "Unnecessary rest" could also be. Your last success may transform into one hell of a distraction. Anything that generates a dangerous and disastrous action from you should be done away with. Distractions will drag you away from your purpose or delay your manifestations. Distraction always brings disgrace. You will fail in realizing your dream and goal. Disgrace simply means distant from grace. Distractions will cause you to be distant from the grace of performance and advancement. You will know your distractions. Anything you are doing that does not have positive addition to your goal and ultimate fulfillment is a distraction. In the days of Hadassah and her contemporary virgins, they were in the palace for a purpose. They were there for 12 months to enhance their beauty and prepare them for the King. The purpose was clear, but the majority of them got distracted. It does not mean they were not doing something. No, they were only doing things that got them out of favor of the judges. They had enough to eat. They had luxury but they were all distractions. Hadassah on the other hand focused on her goal. The ladies were virgins, but that was not enough to carry them into their dreams (Queen of the most powerful nation of that time). They needed to focus. They needed to get away from their distractions. Favor cannot come to a distracted man. Rather, disgrace is their emblem. Stop being distracted. Rise and stay above it.

UNDERSTANDING THE TIMES

-
Seriously, understanding your times in the making process poses a  great challenge to many as children of God. Unlike the trees and crops whose seasons are relatively constant in planting and fruition, every man has a unique timing in both. It is laid on us to understand under God what our times and seasons are. A man who ought to be in the planting season is expressing fruits (Results of being made). A man who ought to be in the germination stage is celebrating the harvest. See, once you miss your timing in life, there is already a huge deficit in purpose fulfillment. Don't envy any man. See their timeline and you will understand. One heavy blow the enemy has landed on our generation of young ones is to be fruitful without getting planted. They want to ride cars, build houses, have huge money, and get to do the "big" things without being buried as in planting. No cultivation,  no rooting, no thinning, and no manuring, none. They want to skip those times because of one ol

FRIENDS

-
The circle of people around you has a huge influence on who you are becoming. Remember, we have discussed that you are becoming what you will become.  No one became anything suddenly. It's a process. While you are becoming what you will become, you need to know that the friends you keep will have a large influence on you. Let me tell you the bitter truth. You cannot be friends with everyone. An attempt to try it will be the beginning of you becoming a deformed you. It is foolishness to want everyone in your camp and be in the "good" book of everyone. You must learn to select your friends. Even if they select you, you must also check your parameters of judgment to bring such people close. Meanwhile, some people may be colleagues at work and their position must not be more. Some may be mere acquaintances, an attempt to make them more than that will be catastrophic for your dream and goals in life. You dare not discuss details of your life with such. A friend is indeed a dee

TRUST GOD EVEN IF IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE

-
Young man, I am glad to pen some issues on your current challenges to you today. You may be currently in the worst state you could ever be. Let me tell you not to shift your attention away from God. Stay with him. Learn to trust God in all you do. Hold firmly to the truth of his word that he never fails. Even when it does not make sense, trust him harder. Even when it does not match your physical senses and the road seems blocked, trust him better. Trust God if it is senseless. Trust God if it's locked and it can't be opened by men. Trust God is it's dead and no hope of life. Trust God if it's broken and can't be fixed by men. Trust God when all road seems to be locked down. Trust God when the doctors says it can't be fixed medically. Trust God when no man is there to lift you. Trust God when you are in the afternoon or evening of your life here and you look like an under achiever. God is never going to be late on your case. He is never going to fail you. He is
