HOPE IN THE PIT!

Imagine a chick falling into a pit of about 6 feet for several days,it is of no denial that it will obviously die in the pit as it's mother i.e the chicken cannot even bring it out.The chick can only come out of such pit with the help of a human who needs several help to bring the chick e.g a ladder to bring the chick out.

In life,we could be like that chick in that pit who is in the midst of several
challenges,difficulties,hopelessness,rejection,opposition from all spheres of life such that our earthly parents can do little or nothing about this.This was the case of Joseph in the bible,his earthly Father loved him so much that he made him a coat of many colours and this brought about hatred from  his other brothers and made them cast him into a pit(Gen 37;3-4 & 24).It is of no doubt that so many of us are facing several challenges as of which Joseph faced then in today's world.No wonder the suicidal rate keeps increasing year in year out as a result of lack of courage to face situations at hand.

Jesus Christ is calling you today,the bible says in (mat 11:28) come unto me,all ye that labour and are heavy laden,and I will give you rest.There are so many things you are going through such that going forward seems impossible,backward is not an option standing at a point is  not profitable.If we read through (Gen 41;39-44), the same Joseph thrown into a pit later became the second in command to pharaoh in  the land of Egypt,all these happened through the power of Christ in him.
All you need to do is give your life to Christ,forsake your bad ways and watch how Christ brings you out of the pit into Eternal enjoyment.

Prayer point;Lord Jesus,I give my life to You today,I confess You as my personal Lord and Saviour.every pit I find myself in,bring me out to the fulfillment of Your glory. AMEN

THANKS FOR READING.

FUEL IT UP!!!

 When I was in primary school I was part of the girls guide. we usually go for weekend camping in any agreed location and I remember that whenever we were at camp, we always have the camp fire at night and everyone will be dancing around it. Whenever the fire goes down, we will put leaves and some other petrochemical substances to enable it burn well. Going through the books of Mathew 25, the story of the 10 virgins ignited a spark in me and I realized instantly that to keep anything burning, we need substances to fuel it up just as we did at the camp whenever the camp fire goes down. Also, most of us have generators in our various homes and I can imagine how much we would feel helpless when we cannot get fuel to power our generators especially when we have a very interesting show coming up or a football match and the electricity distribution company decided to keep the light off. Brethren, reading through Mathew 25: 1-13, we would have a better understanding of what it means to fuel u

BEHIND THE SCENES

 If someone wants to write and pass an examination, I want to believe that a successful candidate will want to ensure that no stone is left to guarantee such individual's success. I remembered a scenario I found myself during my final examination. You know that euphoria of "I am now a finalist" did grip me and I failed to prepare adequately before the final examination day and the funniest part was I was trusting in seat formation as we always say then in Uni as I believed that if I could have a good seat arrangement I would tap from my colleagues who were more knowledgeable. Behold, a very strict invigilator was in attendance that fateful day and the whole plan was distorted. Remembering this issue and going through the books of Esther, Daniel and 2nd Chronicles gave me a deeper understanding of the three words "Behind the Scenes". What does this even mean scripturally? Before I give a definition I would like to make another illustration to buttress my earlier

The Price of Destiny

                              In General terms, the price attached to a product or service is the value of such product or service. This explains why priority is placed on some products or services than the other. The fluctuation in exchange rate of different countries to another gives a deeper understanding of the value attached to different country's currencies. The economists say the price of a commodity confers value on such commodity. A person with a thousand dollar undoubtedly has more purchasing power than another with a thousand naira.  Speaking of what the price of destiny means, we can say it is the value of destiny, the sacrifice needed to pay before attaining a glorious destiny.When I mean sacrifice this is not some sort of ritual but what we have to let go or put in place to attain our glorious destinies because as children of God, we all are entitled to glorious destinies as this is His will for us all. Let's have a quick look at those who paid the price for their
