Killers Of Our Destiny

Waking up every day with a dream and an empty pocket on your Jean may seem to be the easiest thing for you to do these days but the more they try to frustrate your effort in the fulfillment of your dreams, the more ruthless and determined you should be to achieving them. 

It is a wicked world out there and no matter how much work that's put into making sure your set goals and life aspirations come true, there are people who are set out to nullify every of those endeavors and would rather make you seem lazy, lost and out of place. 

The truth is, I never use to believe in spiritual warfare but it’s real, trust me and only God can ultimately save us from the killers of our destiny. 

With that said, what makes it worse and heartbreaking is the fact that we run to our pastors, prophets and spiritual leaders in general for some kind of safety and comfort and sadly but often true, they are actually the vessels to which these evil plots are carried out. 

Funny enough, initially it seemed pretty hard for me to come in terms with this fact because I couldn't just place my hands on why a man of God would stoop so low into allowing himself to be used by the same people he was ordained to preach and wrestle against in the first place. 

However, it is beginning to make perfect sense to me, what the scripture was trying to say in the book of Isaiah 9:15-16 and guess at this point, it's safe to say that the church can be most persuasive but my vow is to God, not to the man who murder in His name. 

To this end, I conclude by advocating that we begin to love and serve the God of man and not the man of God. Fear Him, believe in His deliverance, keep pushing and most importantly, let nothing and no one stop you from reaching out and fulfilling your dreams.

Year 2016... Don't Be Fooled

I'm constantly baffled by the circumstances of life I've been faced with in the past months, let's just say the year 2016 for me as been a journey through life's merry and bitter path on my way to rediscovering self and unravelling God's plan and I must admit I shed a couple tears and maybe frustrated at some junctions but His unending grace and my undying zeal to succeed kept me going till this gracious moment I'm privileged to be gracing these pages. And if it is right for me to say, then without stuttering, I will say I've been through hell and back.

Truly, life is not a bed of roses and though I've grown up being accustomed to this phrase but I guess I'm only just beginning to understand the depth in the simplicity of how it sounds. Life is deep and don't allow yourself for even a mere second to be fooled into thinking otherwise. You're alone in this world and if you're lucky, you just might have your parent and siblings travelling on the same coach with you because our families are not even guaranteed to be trust worthy and dedicated to helping us walk right in life. I mean, I've heard and personally experienced scenarios of life whereby a so-called parent, brother or sister is the one ranging war against the destiny of their own.

It's sad when we begin to look deep into the affairs of life and trust me, the more you see, the less you know. Well, I'm grateful I was blessed with a wonderful family, God bless the woman behind my smile and to you my loving brothers and sisters and not forgetting you too dad, you may be gone for twenty one years but you're still a part of this team. Many at times I almost gave up in life but you kept me going because the thought of not been able to disappoint you all coordinated the motivation to stay on track, putting an extra soul in me. You have always been there for me even though I mostly caused you pain at the initial stage of my youth days when I inherited a misplaced priority from nonchalantness and wrong associations in the university that almost ruined my life but because I am a project that must be accomplished, no matter the change in regime, the allocation is continued and that I'm thankful for.

Seemingly, it's no longer news to you all my regular readers and followers that I had a pretty awful past and sometimes I feel I may be constituting some kind of nuisance on the pages of my writing pad when I take it upon myself to share some of these privileged information I wouldn't trade a billion for because they are actually what defines who I really am, but then again, taking a deeper look at it all, the only nuisance I believe I'll be constituting is to the camps of those affected by my testimonies and those who are obviously still feeding on milk because it takes a certain level of spiritual understanding to swim in the depth of my words so I ask this day that you seek wisdom because there are a lot buried in between those lines.

It may seem to you as a regular story but definitely not a regular interpretation. No doubt, we all have a story to tell but I don't actually tell these stories, they tell themselves through me, so please pay attention for it may not even be talking to you at this particular point in time but to someone next door who you can be a blessing to. The year 2016 has been one of the best year for me, not because I built houses, drove expensive automobiles and took trips to the bahamas. The truth is, I couldn't even step out of Lagos all year long but I fought and won the biggest battles of my life and still fighting and now I can boldly look to the mirror and be a proud reflection of myself and that for me is the definition of a good living.

Some are driving the best cars and living in mansions but don't even know what tomorrow holds for them. They are lost in the moment but I rather fight now and live later. And through this journey, I rose and fell to rise stronger and the farther I go, the more the secrets of life given to me. And on that note, may I quickly take a second as I advice you all never to trust anyone. The truth is, our best friends could be our worst enemies. And as a matter of fact, they mostly are. Well, I thank God for opening my eyes to see the true identity and intentions of people I called friends and I just really think the dictionary should loose that word and have it reinstated as 'FRIENEMIES'. You know, I just can't begin to phantom the evil that men do but all the same, I give God the glory.

Looking back through the year, what can you say are your greatest achievements? Is it the houses you built, the cars you brought or the awards and shows you headlined? The good people of the united states of the world, life is deep, don't be fooled if you presently find yourself walking through wall street and switching trips in those private jets, are you sure you got that paper right or you're one of those desperate brothers fast tracking life so that they can ride in those fancy trucks and fresh out Bentleys, it's only a matter of time when life comes calling and requesting for what you owe, it's always better to wait for God, He's the only one who truly gives wealth, the kind that last forever without future scars and regrets.

No doubt, life is good and we all want the good things but why start what we can't finish. I've seen millionaires end up walking on the streets without a penny to their name and even some end up more pathetic and run mad if they are lucky enough not to find an early grave. A word is enough for the wise, thread softly and don't be too impatient. Stripping a brother off his glory so that you may acquire all the riches in life doesn't make you a 'Red Star General', it only makes you a monster whose story is bound to end very badly. Retrace your steps now that you still can and if you're already too deep into it, well you have a chance to start afresh. I believe greatly in 2017 and with God, you can be free from your past and embraced in the future. I wish you all a merry Christmas in arrears and am very optimistic of a prosperous new year. God bless you all !

Stay Motivated.... Be Positive !

No matter what setbacks you may encounter, continually stay motivated to the best of your ability. Don't back away from what's right because it's hard. My father use to say plant your feet and stand firm, the only question's where to put your feet, and l admonish we allow our dreams, our purpose and the ever burning desire in us that can't seem to stay still until its goals are achieved to help find that balance.

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds, so make yourself some comfort out of your best advice. Real power comes not from hate but from truth and it's time you empty that heart of grief and fill it with courage. Life has no remote, get up and change it yourself. The best I can do is show you the path to the stream but I can't force you to fetch water. And what good is it when I put my hands to work and you disregard everything the pen says?.

My goal is to make you better, that's my reward. Until every man is safe, we are all slaves. And if I may ask, what's your contribution to the emancipation of mental slavery?. History prefers legends to men, it prefers nobility to brutality, soaring speeches to quiet deeds. However, what would you be remembered for when history comes calling?.

Never try to spoil someone's life with a lie when yours can be ruined with the truth. Don't let your demons take you to hell, introduce them to heaven. Wheel the unborn stone and end the reign of darkness before it begins. You can reach out to someone today and help paint a new meaning to the life they live rather than those negative energy you carry around.

The fear of offending is stronger than the fear of pain, but they always come willing. There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man, true nobility is being superior to your former self. Kind words can be simple and easy to speak but their echoes are truly endless. Why not associate your life with a little more "Positives", there's more reward in making people smile than making them cry.

Life is beautiful, so live each day appreciating the moment being the best you can. Remember you were created to fulfil God's purpose for humanity and when you choose to abandon your duties, you're only calling for a replacement. And if you feel you're so important, why not stick your finger into a bucket of water, pull it out and see how fast that hole fills up. Everyone is replaceable, including me.

You may have lost the chance to determine how you will start but you still have the chance to determine how the end would be. You may have made a wrong turn once or twice, dug your way out of blood and fire, taken some bad decisions but that's alright, now it's time to take life by the horn and do what's right. Change is the law of life and those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future. Let go of the past and embrace the future, the future is now and it begins with you.
