The resources we need are supposed to come to us in the natural course of living our lives according to God’s design and intention, not meant to become the objects of our faith but the by-products of our faith.

Enough of this serving God for what you will get from Him, that’s a misplaced priority, serve God out of genuine love for Who He is, Not for what you will get from Him and the real Blessings will locate you.

Enough of this street Teaching of “I receive”, receive what? When you have not planted. That’s Empty Gospel. God owes us nothing.

Your Giving to God is an appreciation for the gifts you have received, of His own do you give him? The Lord instructs. GoodMorning. Have a blessed Monday……

Stay committed to your decisions, but stay flexible in your approach. You may not always control the path, but you can control how you approach the journey.

Many of life’s failures are experienced by people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.

Favour is what happens when preparation meets opportunity. We all take different paths in life, but no matter where we go, we take a little of each other everywhere.

The Lord admonished us to watch our brothers back. Good morning and a blessed Sunday…

Life is just a blink of an eye, you never know when something may happen or end, appreciate all and have no regret at the end.

Anxiety happens when you try to control every little outcome. Discipline gets you out of the bed when everyone else is sleeping. Stay focused, go after dreams and keep moving toward your goals.

Breaking free from the imprisonment of old habits is one of the beautiful ways to grow. Great deeds are usually wrought at great risks.

Be steadfast and learn to take calculated risks. The Lord sustains…..

Good morning and blessed Saturday….

Activate the positive energy in your mind. Your mind is the battlefield of your entire life. Program it for victory always, never consider failure in it.

Vanity is the great destroyer of serenity. There is a haven of utmost serenity, a harbor where the waters always are calm.

It exists at the core of your mind, search for it, embrace it and vanity (worthlessness) will be vanquished.

Be optimistic about life, optimism is essential to achievement and the foundation of courage and true progress.

The Lord said “Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life. The Lord Leads.

Good morning. Thank God is Friday.

Life can only deliver what you truly believe, we define our lives by our every thought and word.

If you want your life to change, it will start with what you think and say, only as high as you reach can you grow, only as far as you seek can you find, only as far as you look can you see, only as much as you dream can you be, only as deep as you think can you become.

Life gives back to you what you allow in or say. Learn to fill your thoughts and words with light and truth. We can’t become what we need to be by remaining what we are.

The Lord said “Lift now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou art northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward: For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed forever” What are you seeing?

Good morning and a blessed Thursday..*

Anyone can love you when things are alright, it takes courage to love when things are not good and it does not feel right, without courage, wisdom bears no fruit.

The stupid neither forgive nor forget, the naive forgive and forget; the wise forgive but do not forget.

You can change the ending to your book at any time, just remember that you are the author of your life as overthinking is the greatest cause of unhappiness.

The superior man is modest in his speech, but excels in his actions. The Lord resolves….

GoodMorning, blessed Wednesday….

The Cardinal Onaiyekan Foundation for Peace (COFP), has organised a two-day training workshop for over twenty-eight (28) stakeholders from Bokkos Local Government Area of Plateau State on peace building. 

 This was declared opened yesterday, in collaboration with Catholic Research Services (CRS), Justice, Development and Peace Commission (JDPC), Ambassador Philemon Yatu, and Bokkos Local Government at the JDPC hall in Jos, the Plateau State capital.

Declaring the workshop opened, the Convener who is the COFP Lead Fellow, Ambassador Philemon Yatu, disclosed that the essence of the workshop was to bring stakeholders together to see how they could sustain the current peace being enjoyed as communities in Bokkos LGA.

“So we are using Bokkos local government which has had recent attacks in the past one year to be able to see how our stakeholders will come together, discuss and find a way forward as far as lasting peace is concerned in the state.

“Of course, there is high need to have sustainability beyond the scope of peace. You can see among the group of participants here, we have local government staff as participants here. 

“We also have community leaders, religious leaders, youths and Civil Society Organisations here. All this is to ensure we sustain the peace that we are currently experiencing in Bokkos local government”, he highlighted.

Speaking on the topic: “Understanding interfaith dynamics in Plateau State; The Role of Community Leaders and Other Stakeholders In Preventing Breakdown of Peace”, Dr Sumaiya Hamza, said the use of the word tolerance in dealing interfaith matters was a understatement because there was need for Nigerians to respect and not just tolerate whatever faith one professed.

According to her, respecting the beliefs of one another was key to peaceful coexistence within communities and this should start from family background to build a peaceful society because charity begins at home.

   “I expect that participates will carry the message back home and actualize these decisions that we have taken because nobody can change our society for the better except us. 

“Development rests in our hands and I have said, we are bridges for people that have not come here to march and get what is meant for them for the sake of peaceful co-existence among us and within our communities so that, development can prosper the way it should be”, Hamza emphasised.

On his part, Dr Timothy Daret, who spoke on the topic: “Role of stakeholders in preventing crisis and sustaining peace”, noted that bringing these stakeholders together was to allow them share their thoughts because people look up to them 

“They came from various backgrounds and we have youth leaders, community leaders, union leaders, religious leaders and so, this coming together will help them since they have shared rooms. 

“So, what the convener did was to have people of different faiths sleep together in the same room to see that, at the end of the workshop, they will be able to see what is the lesson from the person who slept in the same room. 

“Did the person kill you? Or has he or she done anything bad to you? What commonalities do you have? What differences? And why can’t you connect? Those are the lessons.

“So having the leaders to see that, even from the beginning to the lessons that they are received on how they can play a vital role in ensuring peaceful coexistence within their community, it would exposed them to making positive impact”, he reiterated.

Dr. Daret, however, expressed optimism that, the participants would start these little efforts of peace building while at home and it would create awareness and bring lasting peace in their community. 

The theme of the workshop was: Leaders Conflict: Navigating Interfaith Challenges And Harnessing Opportunities For Peaceful Coexistence In Bokkos LGA Peace Building” and there were comments, questions and answers sessions respectively.

We must learn humility early in life because whether you like it or not, the older one gets, the more life teaches one to be humble.

Humility is not about self-deprecation, but about self-awareness; it’s recognizing your strengths and weaknesses, and surrendering your will to God’s, for His glory, not yours.

We all make choices, but in the end, our choices make us. Make up your mind and be humble because humility enthrones.

Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. The Lord said, “A man’s pride shall bring him low: but honour shall uphold the humble in spirit.” Be humble!

Good morning and blessed Tuesday….

The way you speak to yourself has an enormous impact on how your life turns out.

Try, ‘I’m still learning’ instead of ‘I made a mistake again.’ Speak kindly to yourself, always. Either you win or you learn.

Eliminate failure and impossible from your dictionary, because failure is actually learning on how to it better.

Just keep in mind: the more we value things outside our control, the less control we have.

Worrying adds no value. Learn to cast out negative imaginations as they creep into your mind.

If you quiet your mind, you’ll be able to hear what your soul needs.

Do your best and table all at the feet of the Lord.. The Lord cares.

Good morning and a blessed Monday..

Lift up the weak, inspire the ignorant, rescue the failures, encourage the deprived.

Reach out to those who think that all hope is lost and show them the reason to live again.

The struggle you are in today is developing the strength you need for tomorrow. One cannot get through life without challenges.

What one can do is to choose how to use those challenges life presents to us to our advantage.

Don’t give up, fix the roof while the sun is still shining. Begin to weave and God will give the thread.

Take necessary steps, God is waiting. Accurate information is a key part of motivation. “The LORD empowers.

Good morning and a blessed Sunday….
