MANGER NOT MEAGER

-

Young man, it is vital I tell you this reality that must dwell in your heart richly. Your background must not determine what you will become. You may start small, your later end must be greater. Don't ever use how you were born, who born you and where you were born as an excuse for living a life of mediocrity. No, way. God is deliberate about your life and he can never make mistake about your background. You need to know that you may have a humble beginning, God has planned for that. You may be born in a manger but you must not live meager life. You may be born in a family with no or little nobility and affluence, you may be born and struggle with that mentality of middle or poverty class, there is no issue in that if you don't allow it to overshadow your heart. Once your heart is not fixed to the status of your birth and you give in all your best not to stay in that status, you will definite enter into his full design. Who born you, how you were born and where you were born are not enough to stop you from all of God for you. Jesus was born in the manger but never lived a meager life. He was never born in nobility but he embodied nobility in its highest order. Jesus worked the very life he wanted us to live. He was master over every thing that can hinder a man from becoming all of God's design. Young man, you also need to follow his step to become anything in God's program. Jesus was detailed in living accurately in obedience to elder, sacrifice is studying, committed to prayers, deeply focused on his call and ministry, knowing his time and understanding occurrences around him.  He didn't fall into temptation, he knew when the flesh must be denied food for deeper access to the throne room. He knew his friends and enemies likewise. He was not a lone ranger as Samson, he had disciples and solders raised by and for him. These are some of the pattern laid down for you young man if you will never end up living a meager life. You may be born in the manger, it does not equate to a meager life. God doesn't want you to end up in mediocrity because you will not be ultimately living for him if that happen to you. You may be born lowly, you must not die in that state. You may be born in the manger, you must not die with a meager life. You must be deliberate in  following the foot step of  Christ in detail. Your design is embedded into the scheme of following Christ. 

Reference; Luke 2, 9 v 23

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
