TO THOSE THINKING THAT LIFE IS OVER.......


You're too beautiful to be self harming. It's time to put down the things that are just bringing more pain to your life...... Don't let the hate that people give you cause you to hate yourself.
Don't let bullying separate you from the love God.. Don't let broken relationship separate you from the love of God. God has the evalasting love that's more powerful that even loneliness, rejection or low-self-esteem can't survive.
You don't have to turn to drugs, it may seems they're drowning out the pain, but really all self-harm is doing is sinking you deeper in it...... There's no healing in cutting, only temporary release. There's no healing in giving your body away or using drugs, only a temporary fulfilment. Its time to stop going back to these temporary things by choosing right now that you're worth. Your worth more than the people who walked out of your life, talk about you, the problems that are lying to you......
I know it may be hard to do and understand, but i need you to trust God's plan and not your pain. Don't let your problems keep you in a season that God didn't intend for you to be in.
I'm praying that you close this chapter, so you can see there's much more to your story than just you're currently going through. You're worth more... Don't ever forget that...

GIVE AND EXPECT GIFT

  
“Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you” Luke 6:38.

Life is simple, exciting and enjoyable when you know and operate the principles that govern it. One of it is that, life gives back to you what you first give to it. You will be deceiving yourself if you expect to reap from where you have not sown. Even with God, it is only when you give what you have to Him that He also gives what He has to you.

When last were you given something? If it has been long, the reason is probably you have not been giving out something to others lately. If you want money as gift, give out money as gift. If you desire to be appreciated, appreciate something in others. There is nothing you want in life that you cannot get provided you understand and operate the required principles. Some people complain that nobody loves them and no one cares for them. The answer is who do they love and care for?

The truth is; nothing planted grows. Invest into people, the dividends therein is awesome. Those whose names remain unforgettable are those who made direct investment into people. If it is possible, find something to give every day, no matter how small. Give a smile, love, food, money, time and so on. Do not go to bed until you are sure you have given something to someone. If you do so; it will turn your life around for good.

Today, God’s favour will turn to your side. You will be remembered. Showers of blessing will fall on you. Expect a strange lifting, a divine
endowment and unusual favour everywhere you go. You are lifted!

Prophetic Prayers

Oh Lord, make me a generous giver; I banish the attitude of stinginess in my life today in Jesus’ name.

Someone shall smile through me today; grant me enough resources with which I can be a blessing to all.

From today, my life shall not be barren of gifts.


Make me good custodian of your resources in Jesus’ name.

LOOK FOR PROBLEMS TO SOLVE


“A gift opens the way for the giver and ushers him into the presence of the great.” Proverbs 18:16.

Promotion obtained is a product of solution proffered; likewise, money received is a reward for problem solved. God deliberately did not finish the work of creation; as a result, some challenges were left for man to face and some problems to solve. So, man is surrounded by problems, visible and invisible. These problems are daily calling for solution. God created all that surrounds man such that as man solves one problem, another one emerges.

In the process, his personality gets developed, he gets engaged, he earns money and ultimately, he makes this world better than he met it. Hence, his instruction in Genesis 2:18 “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it…” If you are not proffering solution to anything, you cannot obtain promotion in anything, for promotion or wealth secured outside solving problem or rendering service is nothing but fraud.

For instance, Joseph brought solution to the strange dream of Pharaoh and that day, he was promoted from a prisoner to Prime Minister. Daniel experienced the same rise to stardom as he interpreted the strange writings on the wall addressed to King Belshazzar. No one discriminates against a problem solver. The truth of the matter is that people have problems and are desperately looking for who will help them solve them.

Problem solvers are God’s representatives and are co-creators with God. They are assets in any organization and even to the kingdom of God. Why not ask God today to baptize you with an excellent spirit and make you stand tall among your peers. It takes excellent spirit and innovative mind to solve problems. Develop the ability to think outside the box. Yearn for supernatural insights into the issues of life particularly as it concerns human beings. Develop the ability to observe things beyond what is seen on the surface.

Finally, ask God for wisdom in all things. He will surely give it to you. Today, supernatural lifting shall be your experience. Remain blessed!
Prophetic Prayers

I am an asset to my generation; I am not a liability.

Today, I am blessed with the gift and anointing that brings solution to life’s problem.

Fortify your glory in my life so it can shine for the world to see.


Forces of darkness and redundancy shall no longer have dominion over me in Jesus’ name.

"Is there life after death?"

Question: "Is there life after death?"

Answer:
The existence of life after death is a universal question. Job speaks for all of us by stating, “Man born of woman is of few days and full of trouble. He springs up like a flower and withers away; like a fleeting shadow, he does not endure....If a man dies, will he live again?” (Job 14:1-2, 14). Like Job, all of us have been challenged by this question. Exactly what happens to us after we die? Do we simply cease to exist? Is life a revolving door of departing and returning to earth in order to eventually achieve personal greatness? Does everyone go to the same place, or do we go to different places? Is there really a heaven and hell?

The Bible tells us that there is not only life after death, but eternal life so glorious that “no eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him” (1 Corinthians 2:9). Jesus Christ, God in the flesh, came to the earth to give us this gift of eternal life. “But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed” (Isaiah 53:5). Jesus took on the punishment that all of us deserve and sacrificed His life to pay the penalty for our sin. Three days later, He proved Himself victorious over death by rising from the grave. He remained on the earth for forty days and was witnessed by hundreds before ascending to heaven. Romans 4:25 says, “He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification.”

The resurrection of the Christ is a well-documented event. The apostle Paul challenged people to question eyewitnesses for its validity, and no one was able to contest its truth. The resurrection is the cornerstone of the Christian faith. Because Christ was raised from the dead, we can have faith that we, too, will be resurrected. The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the ultimate proof of life after death. Christ was only the first of a great harvest of those who will be raised to life again. Physical death came through one man, Adam, to whom we are all related. But all who have been adopted into God's family through faith in Jesus Christ will be given new life (1 Corinthians 15:20-22). Just as God raised up Jesus' body, so will our bodies be resurrected upon Jesus' return (1 Corinthians 6:14).

Although we will all be eventually resurrected, not everyone will go to heaven. A choice must be made by each person in this life, and this choice will determine one’s eternal destination. The Bible says that it is appointed for us to die only once, and after that will come judgment (Hebrews 9:27). Those who have been made righteous by faith in Christ will go into eternal life in heaven, but those who reject Christ as Savior will be sent to eternal punishment in hell (Matthew 25:46). Hell, like heaven, is not simply a state of existence, but a literal place. It is a place where the unrighteous will experience never-ending, eternal wrath from God. Hell is described as a bottomless pit (Luke 8:31; Revelation 9:1) and a lake of fire, burning with sulfur, where the inhabitants will be tormented day and night forever and ever (Revelation 20:10). In hell, there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, indicating intense grief and anger (Matthew 13:42).

God takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but desires them to turn from their wicked ways so that they can live (Ezekiel 33:11). But He will not force us into submission; if we choose to reject Him, He accepts our decision to live eternally apart from Him. Life on earth is a test, a preparation for what is to come. For believers, life after death is eternal life in heaven with God. For unbelievers, life after death is eternity in the lake of fire. How can we receive eternal life after death and avoid an eternity in the lake of fire? There is only one way—through faith and trust in Jesus Christ. Jesus said, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die...” (John 11:25-26).

The free gift of eternal life is available to all. “Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God’s wrath remains on him” (John 3:36). We will not be given the opportunity to accept God’s gift of salvation after death. Our eternal destination is determined in our earthly lifetimes by our reception or rejection of Jesus Christ. “I tell you, now is the time of God's favor, now is the day of salvation” (2 Corinthians 6:2). If we trust the death of Jesus Christ as the full payment for our sin against God, we are guaranteed not only a meaningful life on earth, but also eternal life after death, in the glorious presence of Christ.
