CONSISTENCY

Oh! Imposter syndrome, where is thy siege? Nay, in all these, I am coming out victorious with my episodes.

That was my lamentation and comfort yesterday while trying to fine-tune how I will go about my new writing episodes.

For the past four weeks, I've been perambulating on how to get things done from the in-depth thinking, word tailoring, research, and attention-grabbing skills needed to bring out the best version of this episode.

From my experience, I have come to realize that when you don't sharpen a skill, you tend to forget your way around it.

I told myself, bae, you have a goal and a good plan to execute it but, why is there no result? Why the struggle?

I realized that one of the key things needed to bring my plans into reality is Consistency.

Even if my plan is concise, compelling, clear and something I can be committed to but lacks consistency, it's a game over for me. 

Consistency is a game changer, and it is the tool to gain Mastery. 

Take the metrics one step at a time, don't rush, and don't stop. Ensure you are always showing up when it comes to that which you're passionate about. Cheers to greatness.

A STIRRING BIRTHING RESULTS

 

       On a beautiful Sunday morning amidst the assembly of brethren, a thought flashed through Bisola's mind popping up a lot of questions from different directions. What if thieves enter the church, what will our reaction be? Will my pastor stand? Are we all going to obey them or dispense God's power? Will there be contention between using Wisdom as it were (cooperate with them) or dispensing God's Power? (face them). “Can thieves enter the church?"  “Is there money in the Church?" No She soliloquized and gave her thought another direction. Where am I going? Life is full of surprises and the unexpected can happen at any time but the problem is when we are caught unawares as believers. The few recent gun men cases in and out of the country should stir up a challenge that will birth result in the body of Christ. It should bring us to the consciousness of what birth results beyond our talks and religious acts.It should take us back to how God's generals and fathers in the faith maximized and are maximizing the power of God with the help of the Holy Ghost.

      When I saw the ironic phrase ‘Ma dira o' (don't guide yourself o) put up by some persons while the visual confession ‘Jesus' was circulating sometimes ago, it's so sad that people believe so much in what charms can do than what the power of God at work in a believer can do. The world made light of the power of God because there is no tangible evidence to show them. People's subconscious mind has now been wired to believe in the power of the devil than that of the Holy Spirit because the results seen around are scarce.

Ephesians 3:20 Now unto him, that can do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us.

Looking at it from this angle, the killing wasn't a martyrdom case as it were but a ripple effect that demands action. The bible says in the book of 1 Corinthians 4:20 For the kingdom of God is not in word but power.

Let's assume 50% of believers on earth know and understand the new creation realities which include the authority of a believer. How many are dispensing and maximizing the new life in Christ Jesus? How many are showing forth God's power? A rhetorical question that can be answered with happenings around. The happenings are indirect instructions to spur us into deliberate action of seeking God genuinely.

We need power. The power is in the of JESUS. I believe many people call on the name of Jesus; strong tower but what makes the difference in the result made is our association with the name. Philippians 2:10-11  That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; [11] And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory. of God the Father.

       How much do we know about him in our association so far that if there is a relationship in the first place? How effective do you think help from someone you are not familiar with or who doesn't even know you will be? May our case not be that of Paul I know, Jesus I know but who are you?

Our fellowship with Him should be our priority. Giving ourselves to a consistent, structured, and fervent word study, meditation, and prayer life. May we walk in the reality of this power at work in us in Jesus' name.

THERE IS A POSSIBILITY IN THE IMAGINABLE

 

If someone had told you a decade ago that you would be able to lodge in a hotel on another planet in some years to come, what will be your response?

You will be like, how possible is that?

Seeing the news about the world's richest man, Elon Musk who is set to unveil the record-breaking and first hotel on Mars soon, inspired a topic in my mind instantly.

So, the Earth's neighborhood planet, Mars will soon be welcoming more people from the Earth. Incredible!!!!

Over time, we've known the earth to be the habitable planet in the world 🌍 but now, someone is about to change the narratives despite all odds.

Through this breaking news, my interest in geography and space was brought back to life.

Earth is known to sustain life because of its right distance from the sun, it is protected from harmful solar radiation by its magnetic field, it is kept warm by an insulating atmosphere, and it has the right chemical ingredients for life, including water and carbon.

How will humans survive on this planet?

Human survival on Mars would require living in artificial Mars habitats with complex life-support systems. One key aspect of this would be water processing systems.

 Being made mainly of water, a human being would die in a matter of days without it.

A Mars habitat is a place where humans can live on Mars. Mars habitats must contend with surface conditions that include almost no oxygen in the air, extreme cold, low pressure, and high radiation.

 Alternatively, the habitat may be placed underground, which helps solve some problems but creates new difficulties.

For a man to contend with all these conditions, making the imaginable possible is indeed the biggest win I've seen so far.

Where am I going?

As much as I don't want to sound like a motivational speaker, let me end on this note.

Everyone can't be Elon Musk but there is something spectacular about you that is incomparable. 

What's that thing you're good at? Look inward, discover it, imagine the impossible to the end that a solution is provided in that your field of interest, and start executing.

Above all, believers, you have an advantage in the person of the Holy Spirit, who is first a creative spirit according to the book of Genesis (Creation story). Engage him.

Ephesians 3:20

Now unto him, that can do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think,  according to the power that worketh in us.

Don't limit God, let your imagination be limitless. There is a possibility in your imagination and let your imagination be guided by Philippians 4:8.

Happy new month Family🤗

SUCCESS; A REVEALER.

It's so beautiful and exciting seeing the way everyone wants to identify with success. It's a thrilling feeling.

 A lot of us want results but we don't want to go through the process of becoming.

The way the athletes acknowledged God boldly during their interviews leaped joy in me. God over all. 

In the place of leaving it to God's timing and chance according to Ecclesiastes, they did not defy the place of consistency, commitment, endurance, sacrifice, and hard work in the process. 

They believe in the place of being swift, strong, skillful, wise, and understanding.

At times, we always want to hide under the umbrella of “God's grace" and a statement mostly used by complacent people, “the water I will drink will not bypass me".

My dear, wake up to reality.

Nothing happens in the limelight without the backstage experience. There is always a track record to the spectacular.

Congratulations 🎉 to Tobi Amusan, a gold medalist and world record holder at the World Athletics Championship in Oregon.

You are an inspiration and an epiphany that we can speak greatness with determination and commitment.

“DA HUN MI A DÀ OJÓ MÍ LO"

 “DA HUN MI A DÀ OJÓ MÍ LO" (Become that which you have to be, time is going)

The phrase sounds the alarm of time redemption which should bring us into sobriety.

It's the beam of light that navigate what we've been doing to reveal the loopholes and pay attention to them.

The kind of result we get is a function of the time we've dedicated to gaining mastery.

What makes the difference between mediocrity and excellence is the amount of time dedicated to that which one does.

It's a thing to do something, it's another thing to do it well, another thing to do it well consistently, and it's another thing to be a standard operating procedure when it comes to that particular thing.

What category are you with the level of your current input?

We must have the mindset of universal acceptability in anything we are doing.

Have a vision in mind. It gives you foresight of where you are going.

Learning from people who have gone ahead in that field of yours is also a good step to start with.

 What do they do differently?

What will you do differently?

How do you intend to achieve it?

What are your daily metrics for achieving your desired result?

Invest your time in knowledge.

Leave your comfort zone.

Challenge yourself.

Be smart.

In your becoming, prioritize your relationship with God. This is wisdom🔥

Selah!!!

Ecclesiastes 9:10 KJV

Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest.

Proverbs 22:29 KJV

Seest thou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before mean men.

ONE MAN'S VOTE REVOLUTION

Over time, I've always loved the way Indians give solutions to societal problems via their entertainment industry, especially in their movies.

I watched a movie named ‘Sakar' recently.

The movie unraveled the power of one vote as far as an election is concerned.

I've always been a citizen who believes in political participation. It's my responsibility as a Citizen of a country on planet earth.

On  February 9th, 2021, Professor Mahmood Yakubu (INEC Chairman) disclosed in Abuja at the commission's first consultative meeting with Civil Society Organisations that The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has said voter turnout across Nigeria hovered around 30 to 35 percent of registered voters in the last two electoral cycles.

The reasons are; inadequate voter and civic education, ineffective voter mobilization, the fear of violence during elections,) unfulfilled promises by elected officials, and low public trust in state institutions.

In addition, a sect in Christianity also believes in political parties religion-wise.

 They prove their belief by the claim that Jesus was never involved in any political activities because his government is not of this world.

Whereas, they are still the same people who will work for the government and won't love to be sidelined when opportunity unfolds I guess.

Maybe if there was anywhere in the scripture where voting takes place and Jesus did not, that would have ascertained their claim.

When he says his Kingdom is not of this earth, he is not saying we should cut off from systems that uphold the earth. Cutting off from the systems in which the world runs is unwise.

Starting from King Herod who feels threatened when Jesus was born and was referred to as the king of Jews.

 He was thinking he will be a future political ruler from his deduction.

Jesus clarified later and said his kingdom is not a political kingdom but a spiritual kingdom and his throne was not of this earth. 

The illustration was for purpose of clarification and not to be politically apathetic.

This whole Nigerian politics can be tiring and annoying at times. There are so many reasons to just stay low-key and let them run the country the way they want, as it is looking like our votes are not counting.

Sucking the country dry with little or no foresight on how to move the country forward. Inflation, Corruption cases, strikes, and so on...

Just name one sector that is working in the country?

Most of the political aspirants don't even involve their families in political exercises because their families have to be safe, the masses are their weapon and there is always a plan B for them.

Thou, the feasibility of a vote changing the narratives is slim but if the remaining 65% who are registered voters should turn out for elections, it will surely go a long way.

Have you gotten your PVC?

Our trust in democracy remains only because of an election every four years.

Some unethical few people shouldn't make us lose faith in Nigeria's democracy.

A piece of my heart.

Thoughtful words on Deborah Samuel's killing

 

For some days now, I've been engaged in conversations on Facebook over this beloved Deborah Samuel who was brutally killed as she was accused of blasphemy against Prophet Mohammed.

The heart breaking part was the comment session, giving room for a lot of questions to keep popping up in my mind. 

I was seeing content that justified the killing and it was looking like a dream to me sincerely.

Really?

Is affirming my belief a blasphemy that warrants nothing but death?

It's way obvious that the concept and belief systems of different religions are on their own blasphemous to one another. 

So, why the unnecessary provocations?

Are we all humans in this country?

What Law is governing us in Nigeria?

I know Sharia Law is recognized in Nigeria but,  does it apply to every other citizens that is not bound by Islam? 

All I know for sure is that Nigeria is not a Sharia state.

Where are these northern religious fanatics from?

 Different people from this religious sects are contradicting their statements as some said it's a death well-deserving while others said it is uncalled for. 

Why are they contradicting themselves?

I am confused.

Whose report do we believe?

All I know is a set of religious people provoked and reacting because of someone's utterance against their prophet is only a display of insecurity towards their convictions.

If they indeed know the only true God, they will not think they are doing this for him.

Kill- to sniff life out of God's creature. This is devilish.

The God I know is love and love is kind. The God I know is not partial, he loves everyone. He is not easily provoked and thinketh no evil.

Why not correct the lady in love? 

I don't think education can solve this problem because that happened in a  citadel of learning.

 These are just a set of religious fanatics instilling fear to subject people to bondage.

They need a reorientation of minds and serious prayers.

Referring to the laws from Leviticus to justify the fact that the Holy Scripture supports killing anyone who blasphemes is out of it because the author and finisher of faith in the person of Jesus changed the narratives.

 From the laws to the prophets to his dispensation, he showed us an excellent way.

The story of the adulterous woman is a perfect example of what Jesus would have done.

He said ‘Woman, where are your accusers? Your sins are forgiven, go and sin no more.

Jesus was later killed because to the religious ones, he was blasphemous with his utterance when he affirmed that he is Christ; the son of God.

But, had they known, they won't have crucified the lord of glory.

To wrap this up, general duke says, a creator doesn't need to be defended by what he created at the expense of destroying his creations. Humanity must wake up from some set of psychological hypnotic rhythms.

Nothing justified this evil act. 

At the end of the outcome of this incident, may their testimony be “had they known, they won't have crucified Deborah Samuel”.

Rest on Deborah and forever walk on the street of gold.

What's your opinion and what do you think is the way forward?
