Victor or Victim?

Whose Orders Are You Serving?
Whether you’re a victor or a victim in life depends on whose orders you’re serving.
God’s Command to Adam and Eve was; Rule and Subdue the Earth. Genesis 1:28.
Man’s dominion over the earth posed a threat to Satan’s jurisdiction (earth). So the devil embarked on an operation to secure power and dominion over his territory ‘earth’. Fall of man as recorded in Genesis chapter three marked the outcome of his operation.
Satan Regains Control Over Earth And Man Becomes His Slave Through Sin.
Sin found its way into man’s life and out went power and dominion over the earth back into the hands of the enemy. Sin gave birth to evil, suffering, pain and became a tool of enslavement.
Christ Restores Man to His Position; To Rule and Subdue the Earth.
Jesus Christ through His death and resurrection repossessed power and authority from Satan. He passes this power and authority to man through salvation. He says; "come to me all you who are weary and burdened, and I’ll give you rest," Matthew 11:28.
God has promised and established His word to deliver you from every pain, suffering and affliction. You’ve no reason whatsoever to continue being victimized by oppressive conditions and circumstances in your life.
Therefore, decide now whether you want to continue being a victim or a victor. It’s not a matter of miracles but it’s a matter of choice backed up by a strong will to take the realms of power in your life.
You can do it!

Congruity: The Celebrated Robber

Congruity is a smooth and friendly robber who enters your house as an entrepreneur selling a service (a tutorial on how to be cool and fit in the clique). As an unsuspecting host you gladly welcome the guest and sit through the tutorial patiently. You pay for the service by giving up your personal convictions and off he (congruity) goes to hunt for the next unsuspecting culprit. He robs your house (willpower) clean and leaves you with a herd-mentality that sticks with you as long as you want to remain cool. The good thing (am not sure whether it’s really good) with our society (us) is that we’re really smart. We pride in our ability to remain on top of things. We aren’t intimidated by problems, (though we aren’t proactive in solving them either). So whenever we’re faced with a stubborn problem that’s likely to give us headaches, we tag it with a justification and quickly sweep it under the carpet (that’s smart, right?). For instance, in the case mentioned above, when our k...

Remember the Foundation

We’re living in dynamic times and things are changing quite fast. If those who lived in yesteryears came back, they would think they’ve discovered life on another planet because of the way things have revolutionized. It would take them a lifetime to understand what is going on.  Life is so fast paced nowadays, before you comprehend the fundamental principle of a trend, a phase is gone and another is midway. But how can we sustain sound judgment when life is moving at jet speed engaging us in full time comprehension occupation? Women on the Rise For instance, we hear of women empowerment all over. Have you ever been curious to find out the facts behind empowerment of Eves? I hope you have; but a good number of people especially women (no offense), jump into the wagon without establishing the objectives of this noble cause. And because they don’t build the cause on its foundation they go to extremes resulting in massive outcry from the male population. Misinformation ab...
