The Power Of Decision

By
Some people are afraid to make decisions because they are afraid they will make the wrong ones. But it is better to make a wrong decision than not make any decision at all. This is because not making a decision is a decision. If you refuse to decide to succeed, you have consciously or un-consciously decided to fail. When you refuse to decide, your life is like a wheelbarrow, you only move as far as other people push you. If you refuse to lay the options for yourself and make your decision, you will have to live with the remaining option that is left after other people have made their choice.

 God designed life to respond only to decisions. Your life will only progress based on the decisions you have made. The reality of your life today is based on the decision you made yesterday. Many lives are not moving forward or not moving at the rate at which they should move because the people who own them have not gathered the courage to make the necessary decisions they need to make to move their lives forward.

From the time you make up your mind, it’s only a matter of time; life will deliver to you what you have demanded. Don’t settle for mediocrity, excellence is ahead of you. Don’t settle for something less than the best, and the best is yet to come. Make up your mind to move from where you are to where God wants you to be. Your decisions will determine your destiny, and your destiny is great.

When you make decisions, decisions also turn around to make you and each decision you make determines how far you will go in life. Don’t mortgage your life to indecision or leave it to the devil to decide. Make a choice today.

I remember the story of a soldier during the civil war in America. He was scared and could not decide which camp to stay in. He got the top uniform of one camp and the trouser of the other side and put them on. So whichever side he found himself, he would say ‘I’m on your side.’ But the day they saw him, soldiers of both sides saw him at the same time, one side saw only the top and the other side saw only the trouser, so the two sides fired him at ones. This was a bad way to die and either camp couldn’t claim his body.

Lack of decision is very dangerous to your progress in life. Many have ended like this soldier who thought it was safer to sit on the fence. Do not sit on the fence, stand for something and be committed to it; eventually you will reap the fruits of your labour.

THEME: RETREAT TO REFRESH READ: Matt. 11:25-30 When some musicians want to release great songs, they retreat to secluded places where they can reflect, meditate and create. Some choose places overlooking the vast oceans, some choose where there are waterfalls, and some choose places with thick forestations.  As they observe the beauty of nature, the swift moves and songs of the soaring birds, the colourful flowering vegetations, the serene beaches and the unending waves of the nearby waters, they capture inspiration that helps them develop the hit songs they have been longing for. I met one of the world’s renowned musicians in Atlanta, USA a few years ago where journalist surrounded him and were asking what he had come to do and why his beards had grown so much. He said that his last album did not perform well enough and he was incubating another one he wanted to release that would perform better. He said that he needed to pull away from the Noise of New York and California ...

A NEW MONTH OF DIVINE ANNOUNCEMENT

By
But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John. Luke 1:13 The Bible is replete of records on how God announced some events before they finally happened. Because you made it into the new Month, God will specially announce you in Jesus name.  Whenever God want to do something unusual, He first of all announce it, for instance, when He wanted to delivered the children of Israelite from the hand of the philistine whom He has delivered them to, He sent an angel to break the new to the parent of the deliverer - Samson. Judges 13.  When God wanted to turn the hearts of men back to Himself, He sent angel Gabriel to announced the birth of John the Baptist to his father, Zacharias. Also when God was fully ready for the redemption of man, He first announced it to the one whose body His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ will pass through to the earth. Luke 1:26-38. That was the...

Marriage Booster: Do You Still Love Her/Him ?

By
Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; Ephesians 5:25 KJV "This is what I love about you" In the beginning you love everything about him. You are captivated by his six pack, his spirit of adventure, and his lion’s heart. In the beginning you love everything about her. You go crazy with the swing of her hips, a wink or a chewy chocolate cake baked especially for you. One day you wake up. Daily routine has shattered your rose-tinted glasses. “His six pack is not so hot anymore, instead his joints creak with every move.” Or: “It would be better if she swung her hips into a gym one of these days.” You realize: “My partner has changed.” Fortunately! He isn’t standing still. The problem is not the change but rather, that you are a creature of habit. It is your task to rediscover your partner and to simultaneously not forget why you went up the aisle with sparkling eyes to marry your bride/groom. MARRIAGE BOOSTER Write d...
