BEYOND THE CALL
The great daunting task begins with a call,a call to Honor;but behind that lies a furnace,which serves the purpose of purification(taking away the unwanted)so as to show forth a man who is worthy of the call.

OUR DEEPEST FEAR
Our Greatest Fear —Marianne Williamson
it is our light not our darkness that most frightens us
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous,
talented and fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be?
You are a child of God.
Your playing small does not serve the world.
There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other
people won't feel insecure around you.
We were born to make manifest the glory of
God that is within us.
It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine,
we unconsciously give other people
permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear,
Our presence automatically liberates others.

ODDESY OF THE WILDERNESS
The wilderness journey is one that is marked by perseverance on the side of the man that travels that path. Life is sometimes filled with many uncertainties and difficulty, which sometimes most of us despise and feel uneasy about.
The road to greatness is marked with so many discouragements, that most times you feel like crossing to the other side, where you can get eternal peace.
The wilderness is a great teacher and also a place of purification, where the desired is designed according to specification. Just like pure gold is obtained through the process of heating, that is how tough people are obtained from tough seasons.
Most great scholars and men who have made a mark, have recognized this wilderness period as a time of purification and grooming, that is the secret that kept them moving and advancing in their journey(learning to see the positives of every experience).
Great minds see things differently, and perceive things rightly, that’s why they make progress. Every man was made equal, but what separates us, is our perception about issues and stuffs. What we call unpleasant experiences sometimes becomes the pathway that makes us what people really admire.
The wilderness period, is a time where a new character is acquired, so as to make us stand strong and be able to withstand the pressures of what might be committed into our hands.
God speaks to us in times like this,and our sensitivity to moments like this usually marks a leap in our life,that produces an advancement in the physical if correctly applied, it is a period where you recognize the power resident in you to make a difference for the world to see.
Though I have been here severally, but then it is a place where all men will choose not to be, except those that get the revelation. Above all, key into God's provided grace to learn to see what he wants out of your life.
Great awaits the man who will yield himself to God,and understand that every route God takes you in life,is targeted at making you his choice person.

LIVING WITH THE MINDSET OF A STRANGER
It is a hard truth to believe, and a reality that is most times denied, because we sometimes develop love for certain places and people we have met in life, and the difficulty of letting go, really dreads our very soul.
I have been confronted most times with hard issues in my life, whose experiences sometimes leave a scar on me. One of such pains is the loss of my dear father that cared for me, and meant the world to me.
When I heard the news of his death, it sapped me of my energy that I lay on my bed all night crying in my heart for the demise of a man, who lived to ensure that the basic things of life will not elude me. As I pondered over this great loss, one thing popped out of my mind that we are all strangers in this world, and we will someday depart.
The legacy we leave behind as strangers in this world is what remains pertinent as we journey through this life. Life most times comes with uncertainties which tend to build up into fears that drains and saps the very energy from us.
One great revelation that will deliver you from every machination and schemes of the evil one is that you can do without that thing you hold so dear to you, provided it does not form the essence of your being.
Letting go off things we have developed love for, can really be a very difficult task to take, most times it seems really impossible to do that. The act of love goes with our emotions, and most times our emotions sometimes becloud our sense of logical reasoning. Emotions are like your personal weapons that may either make or mar you. The stranger’s mindset is that of letting go things that don’t complement your destiny or represent your royal dignity.
The world we leave in happens not to be our own, and we all happen to be passersby on the surface of the earth. It is quite expedient that you understand the true value of yourself, so that you learn to let go of things that mess up your life, and focus on the source of strength.

NEVER JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER
It is always a common temptation to pass judgment based on surface knowledge,the truth is that there is more to it,than what the eyes sees.One great truth i have stumbled upon,is the fact that most interesting books,don't necessarily have a good cover page,and those that may not be very interesting may have the best cover page.
It is important to distinguish the difference between the content of a book and its cover,so that we don't fall into the temptation of making fallacious conclusions based on insufficient knowledge.As i navigate the road of life i have come to discover the true character of a man.The true character of a man is not always what we see by the mere act of looking,without adequate concentration and evaluation.There is more to something or somebody than meets the eye.

A DREAM IN DOUBT
It’s all about a dream; some people believe is bigger than the dreamer,some say will die with the dreamer.
A dream that will welcome thousands of Ovation
A dream that will turn the fortunes of many around for the better and set them on a positive course.
A dream that will land me in the roll call of honor
A dream that will herald the dawn of a new era which will be of men
A dream of spiritual and physical awakening of my nation (National revival).
A dream that will someday set me on focus
A dream to make people see a possibility for their dreams and lives
A dream some confuse for wishful thinking
A dream that comes with so many pains and sorrows like a travailing woman
A dream that will someday become the envy of all
A dream that will make my life a message for the world
A dream that will bring to completion the prophesies of many great men and fallen heroes
A dream that will turn enemies to friends
Though many may doubt or question the very essence of my dreams, I will never give up
I know the source of my dreams, so I will never accept the words of men who can’t see beyond themselves.

MEMOIR OF A CALL TO AWAKEN
As i stumbled out of the examination hall today,with an unpleasant feeling,the fear of failure gripped me so badly that i had to wear a sad countenance that drained the Joy of my day.
As i narrated my experience to the very beloved(one that truly cares),and shares every essence of my burden,i had a reason to go home and speak to my father(GOD).
He challenged me to look at the true essence of my being,and stop focusing on the things i had power over.
THIS MESSAGE WILL STRENGTHEN AND AWAKEN YOU TO FACE THE FUTURE WITH A SENSE
OF PURPOSE AND A DEEP TRUST IN YOUR CREATOR IN THIS DEFINING MOMENT
Worry is beyond your royal dignity,it robs you of your blessing and the future.
Worry is faith in fear,and trust in the unpleasant.
Worry eats you up,and gives you an assurance that disaster is coming.
Worry is believe in defeat and despair.
Worry drowns hope and faith,and every form of Optimism.
Worry is an interest paid on a perceived trouble(Which may not exist).
Never let worry be your master,because it is a from of emotional turmoil,it destroys your peace,your relationships and your progress.
Living a worry free life,is an evidence that you totally trust God.
The past is a history,and the future is a mystery.
Never let the fool called worry, drown your life with his negativity.
Emotions are powerful stuffs,and if not used correctly will turn your hill to a mountain.
Your feelings tend to amplify your situations,that's why you have to be an optimist.
Negative emotions,such as worry,fear,doubt, tend to put your beliefs and values in the background,and glues you to a spot,making you feel helpless and unable to think.
Worry induces fear that eliminates and reduces the potency of God in your life,and finally compensates you with an unbalanced emotion and spirit.
The truth is that if you can change your situation, change it ,but if you cant,live with it with a positive trust in your maker,for he knows why.
Read Philippians 4:6
Be anxious for nothing,but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanks giving,make your request known unto God.
