Sacrifice

 What is sacrifice?

a friend of mine asked me today. and this is what I said to him

"Sacrifice is doing something for the benefit of others even if they turn around and spit in your face" They may not even pick up your calls later after the good deed

And my friend wondered why one should tolerate that?

The simple reason I gave is that even Jesus' ultimate price was "SACRIFICE"

And because of that Sacrifice, half the World is worshiping him today

Whatever you want for yourself! Give it away first and half the world will do to you as they did to Jesus metaphorically speaking. If you desire greatness give it away and it will be returned back to you. If you desire respect give it away and greater respect will be returned back to you. Don't run around chasing and forcing people to respect you or give you honor etc. If you desire Love, give love to others even if they don't love you back. Heaven is full of love to fill your space

Remember the Kingdom of God is within you "Luke 17:21" Whatever you give away, you give out of your kingdom within, and it's an announcement of the abundance of what you have given in you. the given thing then must ultimately overflow and occupy your environment. Then by divine design life must make a copy of what is abundant in your kingdom and build the real objects of it in your life. Like a builder constructs a house from an architectural plan. Haven't you wondered how some people are easily loved in society?

You don't pour from an empty cup but the giver's cup always overflows with goodness and mercy because it's never empty in the first place of such. Hence, Psalm 23: 5-6. Whatever you have in you, life will attract more of it to you and prepare it on a table in the presence of your enemies (doubters, critics, etc.). You can't plant a lemon and harvest guavas, No!

You cant find someone vomiting pieces of meat and when you ask why they are vomiting meat but they say No! they actually ate vegetables. You vomit what is inside your stomach.

May you announce to Heaven of what is abundant in you through your sacrifices for others and Watch how Heaven reacts to you

Why Give?

 Give not because you have enough, not even because you expect a payback some day, and not even because you want to be celebrated by those you give to.

But give because there is a God in you. Give because when you give and put a smile on someone else, that smile is infectious and allows your heart to glow with joy unlimited. The kind of glow that wakes up the creator above to remember your prayer of need. Did you know that a human heart has enough energy to light up a city? Imagine the energy of a joyful heart, it keeps the Sanctuary of God on Atert for you. When you give let go of the gifts and have no attachment to it. Just give and walk away. The universe will celebrate you when you least expect

What comes back to you is always shaken and pressed down for enormous overflow. The Entire Univers becomes a universal womb ready to conceive and give birth to what you desire. It fills your life with the magic of five small fishes feeding five thousand hungry men.

I have learned in my professional life one key Principle When someone asks me to teach them one thing in computers, I choose to teach them 10 things without holding back or asking for any extra payment. The results have been heartwarming. When you see my life today. it's a product of that principle

Today choose to give

You are not a piece of Paper that Life can just blow Away!

 “We cannot solve problems with the kind of thinking we employed when we came up with them.” — Albert Einstein

Yesterday's thinking that has brought us to the place where we are today good or bad has in most cases made us think we are victims of Life. Victims of life who can be compared to pieces of paper that the wind can easily blow away in twists and turns and cannot be put together ever again. We become accustomed to letting our yesterday's problems preoccupy us today. We become hypnotized into looking for problems in every circumstance but blinded to the opportunities that await therein. We over-rely on other people for direction even people who have never gone anywhere significant. Its time to interpret life for yourself

Mahatma Gandhi once said, “Learn as if you will live forever, live like you will die tomorrow.”

You are not and have never been a victim of life. You are life itself. You are the very manifestation of the creator the Bible so emotionally talks about. The only one who is like the creator. You're the cause the universe was created. You are the very reason the sun rises and sets every day and the one that all the seasons get their meaning.

You are the great commander that Life awaits instruction from when you wake up every morning. The four elements of life Earth, Air, Water, and Fire are at your disposal for exploitation to create your desires of Life

You are gods. How have the gods become victims of their own creations 

What if the Earth was a human being, What would she ask for from God or the Universe. Just thinking!

 "When you have been begging for too long, You come to believe begging is normal" ~Dr. Myles Munroe

THE DILEMMA OF ECONOMICS OF BEGGING

Borrowing from the fundamental religious systems of prayer, fasting, and waiting and receiving from God 'methods' taught every day to obedient religious followers, If the Earth truly was a human being, I wonder what the Earth would ask for from God. Just imagine the earth begins to pray for wealth, well and it already has minerals stacked under the ground, would the earth asks for food from God while the created vegetation is replete with all sorts of fruits and vegetables of all kinds already planted by God. I can't even think of the earth fasting for a miracle of a drink of water with all the wonderful freshwater rivers meandering all over the place. I guess the Earth would be the worst fool amongst God's creation.

If I were God, I would ask the question, Earth who has bewitched you. You have eyes but you can't see what is in you and around you. You have ears but you can't conceive the idea that everything you need is already within you.

Hello People, we think we are very educated when we are quite very uneducated. Look around you. You pray for wealth, I wonder what God is saying to you. I Believe Ignorance of what the earth was created for is what is killing us.

Let me conclude because I believe this is the problem of Africa in my opinion; God created the raw materials like land, minerals, and air to mention but a few, but He did not end there, He also created the engine (human being endowed with a powerful supercomputer-the brain) to turn the raw materials into finished products with value. However, the engine (man) is hypnotized to studying and prayer. Like studying how an African can't manage their own natural resources but only be a raw material supplier. Like praying for the water to move from the Zambezi river into the homes of people miraculously or praying for the Copper to dig itself out of the Ground. I think we have been down this route far too long and we are still discussing and praying for thy kingdom come.

Africa, who has bewitched us to always believe it's not possible for us to become who want to be? Let us come out of the Coffin that makes us come to a conclusion that because we have been begging for too long, it makes begging normal. Let's open our eyes and ears and see what we already have. Our Redemption lies there...

The Reason Why Men don’t have breasts but only 'Titis'

The moral of the Satire: "Your gift will always grow naturally"

 

A satirical story is told on the reason men do not have breasts and is set at the time of creation when the creator was dishing out breasts to His creatures. “It is believed that the men chose to send the women to collect breasts for them from the creator. However, as things are not always enough to go around, there were only two sets of breast options depending on who arrived first that is, full breasts with an inbuilt algorithm to grow naturally and Titis (Nipples) with dead roots with no ability to grow. Therefore, the proactive women having arrived first collected the full breasts package and brought to the men what was left, the ‘Titis’ with dead roots, and pasted them on the guys' chests. The men were not pleased at all and set out on a mission to see if they could develop some breast projection too and started lifting weights. However, no matter how hard the men tried with weight lifting they always ended with a look-alike breasts projection and damaged body muscles”

The moral of this satire begins with what Aristotle once said and I quote “Knowing yourself is the beginning of wisdom”. Each one of us was born with a unique God-given gift that is priceless and unless one identifies what their unique gift is, they will die poor yet so rich and a tombstone will have to be erected at their gravesite just to remind others that somebody once lived on this Earth. Some people are gifted musicians, writers, footballers, inventors, cooks, and communicators, the list is endless. One must identify their gift and nature it because your God-given gift will grow naturally if you know you have it and develop it. It’s a gift that does not require one to even go to University to learn it but grows naturally when nurtured and sharpened by the host. Women do not have to lift weights for their breasts to grow, they grow naturally it’s their gift. It doesn’t even need prayer to set it up. If you are a footballer, begin to sharpen your skills by practicing and watching, at the same time learning how some of the best footballers do their thing. If you are a cook or musician, nature that skill. Whenever you try to be what you are not, you will get hurt and frustrated because your gift was designed to make you a 'life' and anything else will only afford you to make a living. Your gift will impact the world and you won’t even need a tombstone engraved with your name. Your gift will even make Google add your name as an official NOUN on the Internet. You can retire from working for others but your gift will ‘make you a life’ for life. What would you choose?

You can be in formal employment right now but your God-given gift is still with you and waiting for you. As the saying goes if you are not chasing your dream, others will use or employ you to help them chase their dreams. Consider your job as your capital to finance your gift because sometimes you can’t think properly on an empty stomach or are homeless. There are no coincidences in life and there is always a reason you are found or set up in certain places. Some people join the medical profession without knowing that they actually are carrying a hospital within them that they are gifted to own but need to know how it can be managed.

Ask yourself the questions “Who am I” “What is my gift” and “Why am I here on Earth” When you find the answers to these questions and act appropriately, you have just begun to know the truth that sets you free and to gain the key to your Kingdom locked inside of you. After that you are unstoppable. Haven’t you heard of lawyers who have quit their practice to follow their passion in food production and have become super successful! Well, you could be next as you unleash the Kingdom of God within you on earth. But take it one day at a time and don’t you go and resign your job just because some motivational speakers said so, No! Just know that wherever you are, that’s your starting point, it’s the next steps that are crucial

A Thought For the New Year: Go After Your Dream

 "Kansendeleko Yatanine Inkoko Amebele"~African proverb

Translated as “The ‘go and get it for me’ mentality is the reason why the Chicken does not have breasts" 

This proverb is derived from a satirical depiction story explaining why the chicken does not have breasts. It is a story set at creation time when the creator was dishing out breasts to his creatures among which the chicken was supposed to be a beneficiary. However, when the call was made to the chicken, the chicken decided to solicit help from the dog and requested the dog to collect some breasts on its behalf. However, when the dog went to pick its own breasts and the chicken’s, the dog became greedy and decided to keep all the breasts for itself including the ones collected for the chicken. Therefore, as the chicken waiting and ready to receive its share of the breasts, it discovered the dog had plugged all the breast batched on its own chest, Wow! That day the chicken ended up with nothing and is now seen scratching the ground in anger and frustration of the treasonable betrayal by the evil dog. Ever seen a guy who sees a girl of their dreams and are too afraid to approach her for a date and decides to send another dude to talk on his behalf to the girl! You know how such stories end, the messenger always ends up with the girl while the guy who sent the emissary ends up with nothing, frustration, and dancing all alone at the party.  

Stretching the satire further hoping to end the year with laughter, maybe that’s why men do not have breasts because they must have sent the women to collect on their behalf and the women collected the full package and the men ended up with what was left over, the Nipples, which are stuck on their chests and probably that’s why the men have been lifting weights to try getting a look-alike chest projection if you know what I mean (just joking satirically aloud).

The moral of the proverb is that in the New Year whatever you desire in life, go after it yourself and don’t send anyone else after your dream because you are the one who has conceived it, you are the only one whom God has given the capacity to bring the dream to life. Sorry, don’t even ask the so-called men of God or prophets to tell you what you can or cannot do. Talking about anything is not equivalent to doing something about it. Quit talking and start acting in the New Year. That is the reason you are equipped with eyes, hands, legs, and the super brain. The ‘this is my year’ talk does not put food on the table. Don’t be hypnotized by the New Year crossover events, you are always crossing over every single day you wake up. The illusion of believing the New Year crossover events where you believe someone will place their hands on your head and things will magically change for the better needs rethinking. If you don’t think, you don’t plan, and don’t act, attending any religious event is a waste of time.

By the way, stop the self-sabotaging mentality of the so-called ‘waiting on God', finding God, and going to the mountain to go on a fast for wealth. Haven’t you thought for once that God is also waiting on you to act because you are the one with the body or device through which his glory can be manifested? God cannot create the mountains and you still expect Him to come and climb it for you! No! In any case, why look for something, you are already carrying. Jesus Christ actually said, the Kingdom of God is within you and he did not put any condition to possessing it. We were all born with it just like we were born with the ability to talk at birth and a mango tree is already in the Mango seed. Therefore, if you have been on the Journey to look for something you already possess, good luck on the journey to look for something you will never find by looking elsewhere than within you

Am sure all of us know that Internet can only be accessed through the device (computer, phone, etc.) by activating the Wifi or data access network, so is how to access God. God can be accessed through your INNER-NET. I hope you get the picture

You Can't OutRun Your Destiny: But You Need Software Upgrade for your Life

 "No matter how the buttocks hurry, they will always remain behind" ~African Proverb

The Literal meaning of the African proverb is that you can never outrun your destiny. There is no magic in achieving your dreams but by careful planning and execution of those plans which also includes building a wealthy mindset despite your current circumstances. If you ever want to get even wealthier in life, make sure you build your career around your gift. Get examples of good footballers and popular musicians, and you will get what I am talking about. Anything else you are doing away from your gift, you may simply be making a living.

Wealth can never come by Fasting either. We can draw lessons from the Biblical story of Moses in the book of Exodus when he came face to face with the Red Sea and he needed to cross it with the former slaves called Israelites. He tried to pray but God asked him what he had in his hand because prayer was not the tool he needed but what he had in his hand. As the story goes, he hit the stuff that he held on the Red Sea and the sea parted to pave way for the people to crossover.

Everyone was born with a gift that can never be measured in value and it holds the key to making life to open your path to your destiny. What holds us back is that we are trying to compare ourselves to other people's achievements and the path they might have used and we always end up short and frustrated

The question is what do you have in your hands (your God-given gift) The thing you feel so happy, passionate, and effortless to do. Are you a singer, an athlete, a cook, an artist, a writer name it, that is the valuable divine stuff you have been holding in your hands which is the key to parting the Red Sea of life to get into your desired destiny. Can you just imagine how an illiterate or not so educated individual who has harnessed his or her footballing gift and ends up earning $100,000 to $500,000 a week! that's the value even more of gifts that each one of us is still holding in our hands knowingly or unknowingly

As you prepare to crossover into the new year, ask yourself the question, What do I have in my hands that is bigger than the problems coming ahead meant to lift me to the higher version of myself. That's what problems are designed to do in our lives. They are literally continuous software upgrades for our lives. Nobody gets any wiser without encountering problemsTherefore, embrace problems and don't resist them.
