“Then those whose lives honored God got together and talked it over. God saw what they were doing and listened in. A book was opened in God’s presence and minutes were taken of the meeting, with the names of the God-fearers written down, all the names of those who honored God’s name. Malachi3:16 MSG” —

Biblical secrets of money making by Bishop Oyedepo

When Godis committed to you, your future becomes colorful.

Prosperity is a product of divine authority, it is not he sweat of man or struggle, it is the blessing of God that that maketh rich and added no sorrow with it. When you secure the favour of God, you become free from emptiness in the life.

Behind every true enrichment. There is the favour of God. The root of every fortune in life is the favour of God, and the favour of God makes the difference.

For the sickness of lack, giving is the only scriptural treatment for it. Until you become committed giver, you can never be distinguished financially.

A genuine encounter with divine favour will terminate all your struggles.

Psalm 102:13-15, Thou shall arise and have mercy upon Zion; for the time to favour her, yea, the set time is come. For thy servants take pleasure in her stones, and favour the dust thereof. So the heathen shall fear the name of the Lord and all the kings of the earth the glory”

When you genuinely favour the programme of God on earth, you become a candidate of his favour in the world. When you truly favour the programme of God on earth, you become an automatic favour in the world.

The favour of God has to be entreated with gift. In psalm 35:27, let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favour my righteous cause; let them say continually, let the Lord be magnified which hath pleasure in the prosperity of His servant.

The purpose of true riches is to build the kingdom of God. When purpose is not understood, abuse is inevitable. He said “My kingdom through prosperity shall yet be spread abroad” Zechariah 1:17.

God’s silver and gold is for building the latter house. Until you understand that purpose and embrace it, you are not a candidate for the end-time prosperity.

The silver is mine and the gold is mine, my silver and gold is build the latter house and make it glorious when you understand that, then He can entrust true riches into your hand.

“[The purpose is] that through the church the complicated, many-sided wisdom of God in all its infinite variety and innumerable aspects might now be made known to the angelic rulers and authorities (principalities and powers) in the heavenly sphere.Ephesians 3:10” —

There's no art to find the mind's construction in the face

[[posterous-content:pid___0]]Went by someone’s blog today and saw the name “Enid Blyton”. I know that name from some place in my past when I was less than 5 feet tall. Who is Enid Blyton? Where from that name? A quick GoogleWikipedia search and Voila, there she is!! I say GoogleWikipedia because the unknowns invariably lead you to Wikipedia. Maybe I should just get a Wikipedia toolbar already. [[posterous-content:pid___1]]

Anyway, the name reminded me of how long I’ve had the penchant for reading. I think I was introduced to the Hardy Boys around the same time I discovered Jackie Collins, Mario Puzo, Charles Dickens, Sidney Sheldon and Danielle Steel. Someone say bad cocktail of literature. I used to find Sidney Sheldon and Nora Roberts books absolutely riveting. I’d like to say I started with the Bible but at age 10 the literature that interested me was Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew, Greek Mythology, Shakespeare, R.L Stine, Agatha Christie and Tintin. I vaguely remember Marlon Crentsil and Opuni Kofi as being my competition when it came to who would get to steal whose book to read it. Good times.lol[[posterous-content:pid___2]]

My mom read Shakespeare in high school and you would hear her reciting phrases like ‘There’s no art to find the mind’s construction in the face’. Looking back it’s no wonder that the girl I spent the most time liking in highschool and college is an author of two books and I’m in charge of Copywriting in an Ad agency. Go figure!! [[posterous-content:pid___3]]

It’s been a nostalgic afternoon but it’s also dawned on me how reading all of Sidney Sheldon’s books before 18 and trying to memorize Macbeth at 15 is of no relevance to me now. The books sprinkled some cultural insight but added no colour to my spirit. For example, when have you ever had problems with work, a girlfriend, addiction or your health and found a single line in any mundane book that could solve all your problems permanently? That’s part of the reason I don’t listen to hiphop or hiplife anymore. God forbid you ever become ill,in debt or depressed but if you do, trust me, you’ll never find anything in Kanye’s lyrics that will pay your bills or make your life whole. Emphasis on WHOLE, not the feel good factor you can get from emotionally uplifting beats and rhythms.

I’ll end this with a quote I heard from a Christian brother, ‘Your life is a photograph of everything you’ve listened to, watched and spoken. If you don’t like where you are now, change what you’re listening to, what you’re watching and most importantly WHAT YOU SAY!!

You can have what you say-Mark11:23

When you carry the Bible, the devil gets a headache. When you open it, he collapses. When he sees you reading it , he faints. When he sees you living it, he flees. And just when you're about to re-post this, he will try and discourage you. I just defeated him.

Mike Matas: A next-generation digital book

Software developer Mike Matas demos the first full-length interactive book for the iPad — with clever, swipeable video and graphics and some very cool data visualizations to play with.

Saw this video and was inspired. The world is getting better. Techwise, we’ll get to the Jetsons era soon. Wonder when I can get myself one of those bikes Jeff Bridges was riding in TRON

Engineers vs Managers


A man in a hot air balloon realized he was lost.

He reduced altitude and spotted a woman below. He descended a bit more and shouted, “Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don’t know where I am.”

The woman below replied, “You are in a hot air balloon hovering approximately 30 feet above the ground. You are between 40 and 41 degrees north latitude and between 59 and 60 degrees west longitude.”

“You must be an engineer,” said the balloonist.

“I am,” replied the woman, “How did you know?”
“Well,” answered the balloonist, “everything you told me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to make of your information, and the fact is I am still lost. Frankly, you’ve not been much help so far.”

The woman below responded, “You must be in Management.”

“I am,” replied the balloonist, “but how did you know?”

“Well,” said the woman, “you don’t know where you are or where you are going. You have risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise which you have no idea how to keep, and you expect people beneath you to solve your problems. The fact is you are in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but now, somehow, it’s my fault!”

Read this while listening to John C Maxwell’s Winning With People. I reckon it’s easier to go through an audiobook than a book unless you’re speedreading or flipping through pics. I’ll be back, still got about 2 hours more of listening to do.

“

Just believe what God says that Jesus has done for you, body, soul, and spirit - think about it, talk about it, sing about it, shout about it, and the praise cure has begun. - Lillian B. Yeomans

There has never been a miracle drug that could equal the Word of God. God’s medicine is the answer to every need. - Gloria Copeland

Endeavor always to remember that you are in the immediate presence of God, and strive to act as you would if you saw the Savior standing by your side. - Raymond T. Richey
