WRONG APPRAISAL

-

While it is important to note the way you live today so your tomorrow will not be in shamble, it is extremely important you don't appraise your tomorrow by the challenges and limitations of today. It is important for you not to judge what God has planned for you by your current conditions. Yes, the current conditions may be tough and really bad. Yes, it may make people conclude nothing can come out of your life. It is their own appraisal. It is normal for men with no insight into the plans and ways of God. It is normal for men with limited information about the present and who has none about your tomorrow. You may not know what tomorrow holds, you surely know who holds tomorrow. You surely know who controls tomorrow. The most difficult appraisal that can be given will come from you. If you appraise yourself by your current outlook, you may be giving yourself a wrong appraisal. Your present must not be used to appraised your tomorrow. God has better even if your day is good, it can be better.  Don't ever conclude who you are by what you are currently. You are a moving train young man.  Your future is bright and so full of glorious packages. Naomi concluded her future because of the stuff that befell her. She was in a traumatic conditions. She lost her sons and husband. She lost all. It was easy to conclude that the definition of her life was bitterness. She concluded that it could only get worst cos she was a living source of bitterness. Well, the current situation was real enough to finish the hope of anything graceful. It was easy to say she can never amount to anything again in life. Well, that was a wrong appraisal. She appraised herself and it was all wrong. God had better for her. She finished strongly and got her name on the lineage of Jesus. She was his  earthly great grandmother. You see, God can never be wrong over you. But you can be wrong even appraising yourself. Watch it young man and give proper appraisal of your tomorrow in the eyes of the scriptures. His words about you will NEVER fail.

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
