WHEN THE WINNER IS THE LOSER

-

Young man, let me tell you that you should not win every argument. Don't win everything you perceived to be battle.  Winning some battles could mean loosing in the end. Even if you have the opportunity to win such battle, do not be tempted to take such advantage. You may regret it. You have opportunity to win against a mentor who turned against you, don't take such privilege. You have argument with your wife or husband, don't win. Learn to loose in such battle. God is strategic in dealing with you. Be sensitive in your spirit like David Jesse. Do you remember that David had to fight an internal battle with his boss, Saul? Saul became jealous of God's grace on the life of David and began to chase him in order to kill him. Saul  was abandoned by God. He lost his place on the throne. His mentee so to say, got favored in God's eyes. David had the privilege to win that battle. He saw an open opportunity to give one blow/strike that would kill Saul. He never used it. If he won that battle, he would have lost a bigger stage. He had the Spirit of God. He knew he was to loose the battle to win. Losing here means not yielding to the temptation of using the opportunity to kill or destroy your opponent. If he had killed Saul, he would  have been justified but a heart like God's title wouldn't have been for him. There were other altitude that earned him that title but the current issue is also one. Jesus lost to the devil physically but the devil who was the winner later found out he was the real loser. There are scheme from God that makes you lose on the temporary little scales just to win in the larger scale. Don't win all arguments. Don't win all battle. In fact, don't even fight some as God leads you.  Have I confused you a little, young man? No, you have to be totally dependent on God's Spirit to know which battle is not to be fought and which is to be lost for greater good. In fact, you will know the one you should not engage at all. You just be extremely sensitive to the person of the Holy Spirit. He guides and guards you. There are times when the winner is the loser. It is essential you are wise to know this.

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
