This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.
Nothing dwarfs a man more than the smallness of his own mind. Nothing incapacitates a man like the lack of vision. God speaking to Abraham in Gen 13:15 said to him ?For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed forever.?. Greatness happens when a people grow their capacity intentionally. Every day, opportunities stroll by unnoticed while people remain perpetually in penury. Why?
It is important to note that lasting success can never happen without an increase in capacity. Let?s call to mind the story of the Shunemite woman for a moment. Elisha had instructed go get all the vessels you can. Borrow, buy, anyhow you can increase your capacity. Why did Elisha do this? He knew that if that woman does not increase her capacity she would limit the God of increase. She knew she had vessels too little to contain God?s increase.

While it is God who enlarges and lifts a man, it is the duty of man to acquire the capacity to contain the blessings that God brings. The reason many have not received that enlargement is entirely because there is absolutely no room to take more. Jesus speaking to the disciples in John 16: 12 says ?I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now?. Can you imagine that? Jesus had a lot of revelation to give the Apostles but they lacked the capacity to bear them.

So how do you enlarge your capacity?
One, read!
Paul admonishing Timothy in the book of 2 Tim 2:15 says study ?Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth?. No one can get any approval who does not first increase the level of his knowledge of God. Joshua 1:8 says ?This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.? If you will not read and meditate on the word of God your capacity can NEVER increase and there will not be growth nor success. The Bible talks about those ?that know their God being strong and doing exploits?. ?Those that know?. Without knowledge you can?t grow. You can?t do exploits.

Secondly, who are the people that influence you?
An English adage says if you stay around long enough in the barber?s shop you will get a hair cut. A Yoruba adage says if a sheep stays around a company of dogs long enough it would eat shit. The Bible says ?Be not deceived bad communication corrupts good manners?. Please understand dear reader that glory is very easily corrupted by staying around with lay-abouts. Your capacity can never increase if your circle of friends is ?Low-life-dwellers?. Imagine, on the day that Elisha asked the Shunemite woman to go borrow vessels; if all her friends were poor people who cannot even afford a vessel. She would have missed the opportunity of her major breakthrough in life.
Today, I challenge you to be deliberate about the kinds of people that you let into your space. Screen out those who are adding no value to you and deliberately befriend people whose lives inspire you.

Lastly, pursue your goals.
If you will prosper and succeed in life, hardwork will have to be your middle name. No anointing can replace the need to work hard. Jesus was the most anointed of all men that ever lived yet he prayed so hard until his sweat was thick as blood. During his earthly ministry, he was moving from one place to another doing good and touching lives. In fact, he worked round the clock. If you will see any growth it will require that you work. Not moderate work but hard work and trust God to prosper your efforts with good success.

Happy new month.

When people use the word “entrepreneur? to describe themselves as though it?s a new acronym for “jobless but passing time“, I laugh. I laugh because I know that entrepreneurship is service to humanity. I laugh because a true entrepreneur disdained a great many easier choices to walk that road alone. On a day like this I think it is important to give a word of hope to someone out there who?s been trudging this road with much resolve and little result.

Sometimes, business coaches sound as though the problem is with just inconsistency or lack of intensity or product-market mismatch and on and on and on. The reality is that sometimes you will do it ALL right and still get no result. What do you do at such times?- Hang in there!!!
See brother, you cannot afford to go back. Not just because of you but because of the many destinies that depend on you. As entrepreneurs, we are life givers. We carry the destinies and means of other men on our shoulders. So, if you go back, you?re taking a few people with you.

Let me share with you the PRINCIPLE OF COMPOUNDED EFFECT!
It states that “Every major life occurrence; failure or success is a product of several events whose effects are multiplied daily on the eventual outcome? Your marketing efforts might look like a waste because you are not yet getting results, but NO, it is not! Your knowledge acquisition might look like a waste of time because you are not yet making money, but NO, it is not!

Dear business owner, my heart speaks to you this morning because I feel your pain. Hang in there! Stay the course. You cannot go back, no, not at this point. You are gone past half the journey to Canaan! You can?t go back now! Not just because of you but because of your many destiny benefactors. If you fail, you are not just going to account in Heaven for your failure. You will also account for theirs. If you keep showing up for your dreams faithfully, it will not be long before your dream will show up for you. IT WILL HAPPEN THIS YEAR. GO OUT YET AGAIN TODAY AND LIVE THAT DREAM.

Happy new month.

“For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring.“

It is important to differentiate breath from life! It is possible for a man to be advance in years breathing each day without actually living. Not everyone alive is living.

What exactly does it mean to live? A man cannot start living until he has found a reason to live. No man can live until that day when he finds the purpose for which God created him. To live is to move in the direction of purpose. To live is to progress every new day towards the attainment of the goals that heaven has chosen for you. If you achieve the entire world without living the design of God for you; you have wasted life. May it never be said concerning you that you lived without attaining God?s purpose for your life.

No man can find his purpose who lives outside of his maker. John 1:4 says ?In him was life; and the life was the light of men [5] And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not? Everyone who finds Christ and lives the life of Christ becomes a model of success and a reference point in relevance. Brethren, no one can prescribe the use of a drug better than its maker. After all said and done, the benchmark for scoring the success of your life would be the script that was written at creation. You will not be measured against ambition. You will not be measured against perceived competitors. Your life will be measured against the script written by God at your creation.

How does a man access the life in God? Let me remind you of two of the most priceless mysteries of Christianity.

First is the mystery of the flesh and blood. Lev. 17:11 says ?For the life of the flesh is in the blood? One of the greatest mysteries of Christianity is the mystery of the communion. To enter fully into the life of the father through the son, regular communion is a must. ?After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me? (1 Cor 11:25). Everyone that partakes regularly of the bread and the blood of Christ renews the covenant of life.

The second is the mystery of the washing of feet. Very mundane, yet powerful! Jesus, speaking to the twelve as he rounded up his apostolate offered to wash the feet of his disciples. Peter resisted ?How can my master wash my feet?? I?m sure that was his thought. But then Jesus insisted. ?Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me? (John 13:8). Jesus was demonstrating the atonement on Calvary. Whoever will not be cleansed by the blood that drips from Calvary can NEVER access the life in God!

Lastly, It is important to be ready to pay the price for a great life. Greatness never drops on the laps of men. Jesus speaking in John 9:4 says: I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work. It amazes me when men live as though they had from now to eternity all to themselves. They have no urgency of time. Even if you were Methuselah you still would be limited by time. The human life is like a screen of smoke appearing now and disappearing the next moment. Give it your best. Ensure you leave this world as a champion!

When you teach your child to fear the Lord, both you and your child stand to gain a lot.
For instance,

A parent who has a child that fears the Lord will live peacefully now and in her old age.

She will be the envy of her peers.

She will receive the blessings of the Lord, and her child will bless and honour her.

For the child who fears the Lord;

He/she will grow in wisdom. Prov. 1:7

He/she will be motivated to flee from evil. The fear of the Lord restricts a child from doing evil. Prov. 3:7

It will prolong his/her life. A child who fears the Lord will live long. Prov. 10:27

It gives him /her sense of security. A child who fears the Lord will not be threatened by anything. Prov.14: 26.

It will bring him/her satisfaction and safety. Prov.19:23

It will bring him/her great blessings. Prov. 22:4

For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly.
There are men who struggle in life for everything. They struggle to be born, they struggle to live, they struggle to go to school. They even pay through their noses in schools. They fight to get a job and wait several years before they find a mate. Nothing is ever easy for them. Look around you will find such men. Whatever they have resulted from years of toil. May be you are even one such person whose trademark is struggle. It is my sincere prayer that the God of Heaven will let you lose that trademark in Jesus? name. God never ordained a life of struggle for you. It is not God?s wish that you fail twice before you earn a degree. It is never His plan that you learn by brutal life-threatening business failures. God?s agenda for your life is “effortless success“. Please do not misunderstand me, God ordained hard work and He expects it of us but undignified, unproductive and tortuous work is never a part of His plans.

What exactly is the difference between impossibility and struggle on one hand and ease and effortless success on the other hand?- Grace; the God of Grace. In Luke 5:1-11, fruitless effort, failure, shame and reproach ended in the life of Peter immediately Jesus Christ who is grace personify stepped into his life. Shame gave way for unending glory through his relationship with Jesus Christ. A poor and unlearned Fisherman by Grace became a carrier of God′s glory with records of his name in the Scripture and even in this contemporary time, his name can still be found on monuments.
The Bible says “Then Isaac sowed in that land and received in the same year a hundred fold: and the Lord blessed him“ Can you just think for a moment about that? Can you just imagine putting a thousand naira in the bank and getting hundred thousand in interest per year? That was what grace did in the life of Isaac. In a land of hardship where everyone was crying famine, he was shinning revealing God′s glory because God rewarded his labour hundred fold. You might be one such person who is thinking “How will dreams come true in this year of woes“ I have a word for you: the God of grace that did it for Isaac will yet do it again.

In operating the grace for possibilities, three things are uppermost:

One, you MUST never take NO for an answer. Whether it is from destiny-helpers or the devil, never take a “No“. You must know that great doors seldom open at the first knock. Elisha had to cross Jordan before he got the double portion anointing.

Two, you must be a man of prayers. I have not seen a greater force than the force of prayers. Christians seem to have forgotten that time changes nothing. Those who constantly record victories have mastered the use of prayers for the dismantling of spiritual strongholds. Be not ignorant, there will always be opposition to your progress.

Faith! In this kingdom, we operate entirely by faith. The Bible says: The just shall live by faith (Heb 10:38). Faith being the evidence of things hoped for; a believer needs to activate faith to see the real manifestation of seeming impossibilities. As we engage the combined power of faith and prayers this month of special grace, nothing shall be impossible for us in Jesus name.
