AFFECTION



Affection can be seen to be a feeling of love or strong attachment.

 There are many things we are setting our minds on to achieve in this brand new year and we are working at it with so much vigour.

 This is a reminder that as we strive each day to get the good things of life, we should also strive to be relevant in our Father's Kingdom.

 We shouldn't let the things on earth that we so earnestly want deprive us of an eternal life with Christ.

 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. (Colossians, 3:2)

 We are admonished constantly by God's word to set our love and attachment on things above.

  All these things that we want to achieve and gain would fade quickly in the long run but God's word will forever be rooted in our lives.

 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. (Colossians, 3:1)

 As we pursue after a better life.

  Let's not be swayed.

  Let us always do those things that give glory to God in all our endeavours.

 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering (Colossians, 3:12).

 God delights in his children being successful but he is also concerned about the process in which we take in order to have that better life. 

 Happy New Year And A Prosperous One At That.

THE LIMITLESS YOU FORMATION!

Oxford dictionary defined LIMITLESS as: "being without end, limit, or boundary." It is a well known fact that man only uses 10% of his brain's capacity and only a few men have attempted using it to that point. Men like, Albert Einstein, Da Vinci e.t.c, and their works still impacts lives till tomorrow. Let me paint a picture of how great and amazing man is. "Man is a universe of greatness; he is so limitless in space that the limitless Creator of the universe can occupy him." Now I want you to ponder on that for a moment! To explain how limitless you are we have to go to our roots, our spirit. Man is made up of spirit, soul and body. He is a spirit who has a soul and he lives in a body. The main part of man that both keeps him alive and fuels the soul and body is his spirit. For once his spirit leaves, the body dies. There is no formation of a LIMITLESS man without a LIMITLESS GOD living in the LIMITLESS MAN. Man has devised so many means of t

DESIRES

                           It is a known fact that when we're attracted to a person. Our bodies have a way of tuning to want that person. A kiss would stir up a lot of other series of action.  A clap often than not leads to a dance. There are lots of relationships where the unmarried couples pray together and sleep together. God cannot be mocked neither can He fellowship in the same place where sin constantly frolics; Jeremiah 16:17 - For mine eyes are upon all their ways: they are not hid from my face, neither is their iniquity hid from mine eyes. A Godly relationship is one in which the couple understands all the scientific and factual 'chemistries' that go on between their bodies but decide to put God as priority, the relationship becomes an altar for God to dwell. Measures need to be in place because as much as you do not want to indulge in any preactivity that might lead to falling into sin, saying it isn't just enough. Praying and acting on the

IF

"If I had written the exams at an older age, I would have passed" "If I had grown up with my parents, I would have chosen a better spouse" "If I didn't go to a polythenic, I should have been done with school by now" "If I had followed them to the party, I would have gotten that business card and probably would have gotten the job" These are the comments I got from friends that I asked concerning their "if" moments: If I loved my course of study from the onset, i would have graduated with a 1st class. If I hadn’t eaten so much, I wouldn’t be struggling with my weight. If I wasn’t scared and ashamed to rewrite jamb, maybe I would have gotten law and I wouldn’t be stressing over what to do when I graduate. If I had known I was enough for my happiness I wouldn't have relied on other people for my happiness. If I was not the first person in my family to attend university, I wouldn't have had some acade
