The barrenness of Disrespect and Dishonour

-

Young man, certain doors, once closed by disrespect and dishonor, may never reopen, no matter how fervent the plea for forgiveness. Forgiveness may heal wounds, but it does not always restore lost trust or rekindle opportunities squandered. The choices you make today can carve pathways to greatness or erect barriers to blessings that may never be undone. Wisdom demands reflection and restraint in our actions, for some decisions carry consequences far beyond what is visible in the moment. Esau JACOB's short-sighted decisions closed a door that was never opened even with tears. Driven by hunger, he sold his birthright, his inheritance and spiritual blessing for a single meal. Though he later sought it with tears, the door had closed, and the blessing had passed to his brother Jacob. Esau’s moment of dishonor showed how a single act of disregard for what is sacred can bring about lifelong regret. His story stands as a warning to all who may be tempted to trivialize what is valuable in the heat of temporary desires. In relationships, careers, and divine assignments, the *principle remains the same*: dishonor and carelessness can close doors no human effort can reopen. King Saul is another example of this truth. Chosen by God and anointed as Israel’s first king, his repeated disobedience and dishonor toward God’s instructions cost him the throne. Though Saul sought forgiveness, the kingdom was taken from him and given to David. The door to his destiny was permanently closed because he failed to align his actions with God’s will. Let these examples be a guide for you. Before you act, pause and ask yourself: Will this decision lead to honor or regret? Will my behavior uphold trust or dismantle it? Life is a process, and every step matters. Choose to walk wisely, respecting people, opportunities, and the God who grants them. For while forgiveness is available to all, the doors of the heart and the doors of destiny require more than apology, they demand honor, consistency, and wisdom to remain open.

Think deeply about this today young man

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...

EXCUSES

-
Excuse me, man, excuses are never going to be genuine says, my philosophical friend. There is no amount of excuse that you give in not doing a thing that will be enough a substitute to doing that thing. You need to know that you have huge excuses on your path in your making process. Excuse your body will give, your desire will give, your lack of one thing or the other will give, so as not to achieve a task. Beware. Excuses will limit the height you should travel in life. Excuses present themselves as your disadvantages, your limitations, your huge boundary, or a mountain to climb. If you don't wake up and deal with every tenable and untenable excuse, you won't go far. The spy sent by Moses came back with devastating excuses that were enough to cause the people not to go on and possess their promised land. Only two stood out with different testaments. The land is filled with milk and honey but there is an obstacle that can get you stuck on the road without entering the land. The...

Grow in Stature

-
Listen young man, growth is not optional. It is a necessity. God wants you to be mature, not just in age but in wisdom, stature, and the ability to carry the weight of His kingdom. Many young people desire power, influence, and divine blessings, but without growth, they will not be able to handle them. Just like a child cannot be put in charge of a great estate, you cannot step into the deeper things of the kingdom if you remain a spiritual baby. A child may be an heir to a massive fortune, but as long as he is immature, that wealth is kept from him. He must go through training, discipline, and responsibility before he can access it. It is the same with God's riches. His wisdom, power, and supernatural provision are not just given to anyone. They are entrusted to those who have grown enough to carry them. God did not design you to remain stagnant. He expects you to grow into His divine plan for your life. The world is waiting for the manifestation of the sons of God, but if you ref...
