LIGHT GIVES LEADERSHIP

“And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.” Daniel 12:3

The word ‘shine’ from the scripture above is from the Hebrew word ‘ZAHAR’, which means: to admonish, warn, teach, inspire, and send out light; all these connote leadership. So, it means that light gives leadership; it gives guidance and direction.

Just as the star led the wise men to the infant Jesus, giving guidance and direction, this year being the year of Lights, God’s Word in your Spirit will be a sure guiding light, producing in you an extraordinary amplitude of comprehension and vision, and causing you to give accurate discernment, guidance and leadership for many to follow. Your life will be a testimony of wisdom and excellence.

The Bible says in Matthew 28:19-20 “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.” The word ‘teach’ here means to shine, so the Master is saying that you should go and shine to all nations. Hallelujah, What a commission!

You have been commissioned to shine with the Gospel. So, this year, like never before, take evangelism and soul winning seriously; make it a conscious lifestyle. Don’t let anyone or anything dissipate your zeal and passion for souls. Remember, you have been commissioned to shine to all nations. Be determined to let the light of the glorious gospel shine so brightly through you.

Day 1
Finance Convention with Pastor Chris

Your soul is internal being.. Don't live your life without God. Don't live for yourself. Let your life counts. Let it become priority to you. Serve him with all your mind and being. If you have to serve God , serve him with everything. He has been the Lord of your life.

Money means different things to different people.. What is your life for...are you still leaving for your life or your friends?. No life is empty than that one leaves for the fans. Is it what you do that defines you? You are in possession of what you are in possession today for a time. What you do with it during the time you are in position is what truly matters.

It takes the wisdom of God to make a good decision. God decision is unto life. We are called to work with God....walking in his steps

Can some people be important to God than others?
Rom 9:9-24, Isa 43:3
Because I have loved you, I will give men for you. If you are important to God he will make an exchange for your life. Pro 21:18
The wicked shall be of ransom to the righteous
Job 1:1-19, Gen 15:12, Exo 23:25
Until God becomes your number one, you can't become his number one. How important is the Lord to you? Who is he to you

Money purchases what the users returned... Money amplified the character of the owner. It shows who you are. Giving is out of righteousness...what you do with the money
Put your money in the kingdom of God. Be important to God
Heb 6:12, 13:7-8...Ur life counts. Money represent your life.

Don't find your life aimless in life. How do you want to know u are at the center of God's will...nothing is better than that. Discover they purpose and fulfilling it...That's the most important in life. Those that died without fulfilling their purpose in life..live an empty life. Let your life counts for something. Live for a purpose.

The secret of pleasing God is by obedience of faith. God never forget. Maybe he promised you something years ago..he never forget. Can God fashion a table in the wilderness? There's a lot he can do with you..all he needs is your heart.

GIVING AND RECEIVING

Tuesday, September 4th

Pastor Chris

Now ye Philippians know also, that inthe beginning of the gospel, when Ideparted from Macedonia, no churchcommunicated with me as concerninggiving and receiving, but ye only (Philippians 4:1)

Sometimes, there’re those who get veryexcited when we say, “In giving to the Lord, itdoesn’t really matter the ‘size’ of the seed.” But the Bible says, “…this I say, He which sowethsparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully” (2 Corinthians9:6).

In other words, if you’re miserly in your giving, you’ll reap a paltry or meagre harvest, but if you givegenerously, you’ll also reap generously. That’s theWord; it’s a spiritual law. It’s simply about sowing andreaping, or as Paul puts it in our opening verse, “givingand receiving.” You don’t need to “pray” to God tomake a law work which He already instituted. Laws, anykind of law, when applied rightly, would produce the requisite results. Likewise, if you misapply them, they’llwork against you.

There’re things you don’t need to petition God tomake happen, once you’ve acted on the Word or on aspiritual principle. This is clear in some of the parablesof Jesus on how the Kingdom of God functions. Forexample, when you read Mark 4:26-28, He didn’t say after sowing into the ground, the man fasted and prayed for the seeds to grow; no! Rather, he went tosleep; and of their own accord, the seeds grew andproduced fruits.

When you apply the law of sowing, it works. The Bible says, “While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter,and day and night shall not cease” (Genesis 8:22). Aslong as there’s seed time, it means harvest is assuredand it can be anytime; the harvest happens automatically.

God isn’t necessarily the one to make the harvest happen. All He does is to channel His grace and favour towards you for superabundance. 2 Corinthians 9:8(AMPC) says, “And God is able to make all grace (every favor and earthly blessing) come to you in abundance,so that you may always and under all circumstancesand whatever the need be self-sufficient [possessingenough to require no aid or support and furnished in abundance for every good work and charitable donation].” Always give bountifully, for the promise is to the giver, not the receiver (Luke 6:38).

PRAYER

Heavenly Father, I thank you for the privilege of giving into the Gospel. I’m blessed in all I do, andprosper in all things, because I’m a giver. I’ll always give bountifully for the propagation of the Gospel of Christ in all the earth; likewise, my harvest is sure, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

DON’T SUCCUMB TO PRESSURE!

For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal (2 Corinthians 4:17-18).

Why should a Christian read the Scriptures, like our theme verse above and still gripe and moan about challenges? It makes no difference the pressure you face from the adversary; refuse to budge, because the greater One lives in you. Never find yourself wearing a sad look, frustrated, because of the challenges you might be facing. That’s what Satan wants; he likes to see that you’re under the pressure; but don’t give him that luxury.

Christ lives in you. Therefore, when you face crises declare, “Greater is He that’s in me than all the pressures and challenges that could ever come against me!” Whatever you may be going through is a light affliction; always remember that. Learn to laugh no matter the pressure, because every adversity you face will produce for you a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory. The Word says so; hence, it’s the only outcome to expect. That’s why you must rejoice in the face of adversity. The Bible says, “…the joy of the LORD is your strength” (Nehemiah 8:10).

Learn to celebrate, and rejoice in the Lord, especially when the squeeze is on. Refuse to focus on the problem. Fix your gaze on God’s eternal Word. The Holy Spirit who lives in you will make you triumphant always, and in every situation.

PASTOR CHRIS SHARES ON

HOW TO HANDLE DIFFICULTIES IN LIFE

You know, i find it difficult to think thought's of defeat, lack or failure. I just can't think the other way. Why? Because my mind has been conditioned by the word. It's called the wisdom of the righteous "phronesis". When You're separated unto the wisdom of God, it makes no difference what happens, your heart is not decided by the happenings. No! You're just in charge. You can change whatever situation to fit into the call and purpose of God for your life. That's the way you see things. As you walk on your way, on that path you've followed, there are things you're really gonna meet on the way.

For David, there was a beer, and a lion, and afterwards came Goliath, then the armies of the philistines and lots of other armies on his path, but yet he defeated them. I'm not sure what's in your path, but i know there's something on your path, so what do you do? Do you go about crying and begging? You see, in your journey in life, you're not just gonna walk freely, there's gotta be something to contend with. You're gonna find a masked devil, and it doesn't matter the kind of a mask he's wearing, or some demons who mask themselves with divers challenges.

So when you get to that point where they showed up, You say in the name of Jesus Christ get out of my way. You know what? When you do that, some will fall away, and you keep journeying. When you get to another one, you say in the name of Jesus get out of my way, it will not move, then what do you do? You just move back and say in the name of Jesus Christ, i command you to get out, and you just push it down and it'll fall. Glory to God. And after that one, there's still another one you're gonna encounter. When you get to this one and you say in the name of Jesus get out, it'll not go, and even when you push, it'll just remain standing.

What do you do to these types of mountains? You shift back a little, speak in other tongues, and you say in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, and you just walk your way through. Halleluyah. You see, by the time you get to the other side and look back, you'd find out that, the mountain wasn't even there in the first place, it was just a mirage. When you face the biggest challenges in life that's what the spirit says. In the small ones, he let's you train your faith;you talk, you kick and you push, but when you get to the bigger ones, he say's the battle is not your battle. He say's don't worry, in this one, you don't need to shout, you don't need to kick or even push, just keep moving. You see that? So when you're shouting, kicking and pushing and it seems as though nothing is happening, You stop for a moment, take a deep breath and just walk through, because there's nothing there.

CARRY THE RIGHT ATMOSPHERE

“But let the righteous be glad; let them rejoice before God: yea, let them exceedingly rejoice” (Psalm 68:3).

It’s amazing how anyone could go on for prolonged periods with a sad face day after day, and week after week; that’s inconsistent with the nature of a child of God. A look that carries the presence of sadness cannot release joy, happiness, meekness and calmness; this is why the Christian must not carry a gloomy countenance. The presence you carry around you speaks louder than how you smell or what you wear; it tells the condition of your spirit.

The life of a believer ought to be exciting not ordered by the dictates of this life but by the Word. The recreated man is victorious, peculiar, and more than a conqueror; he walks with zest and dispenses life to everything in his environment. His lips are a spring of life that refreshes the hearts of those who hear him. His lights up wherever he is his countenance creating an atmosphere of joy and peace, and no one is uncomfortable or wondering what has gone wrong when they are around him.

Understand that this is the environment where the Holy Spirit functions effectively. So make that extra effort to brighten up your face and always see yourself the way God sees you.

SAY THIS LOUD

19TH FEBRUARY.

I affirm that the word of God is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path! Therefore, I will never walk in confusion or miss my way in life. I am in the centre of God’s will and purpose for my life. Through the Word, my faith is strengthened and my life is upgraded! The eyes of my understanding are enlightened, and my mind is renewed and elevated to think in line with the Word. The Spirit of God has granted me insight and foresight into the realities of the Kingdom and God’s eternal plans for all mankind. Hallelujah! I am not of this world; I’ve been transferred from the Kingdom of this world into the Kingdom of God’s love son. I have an inestimable and inexhaustible inheritance in Christ Jesus. I’ll never be broke or poor in life because Jesus took my place and gave me His. I am an heir of the Father and a joint-heir with Christ! Sickness and disease have no place in my body and it can never house or fasten itself over me. Every day I enjoy supernatural supply because I am connected to an endless stream of prosperity, riches, and glory. Blessed be God. Hallelujah!

*“THE POWER OF YOUR MIND (Walk in divine excellence and transform your world through the power of a renewed mind)”*
by Pastor Chris Oyakhilome D.Sc., D.D.

*CHAPTER ELEVEN: SEE IT FIRST FROM WITHIN*

Whatever you want to accomplish in life, you must see it first and take possession of it from within; that is, from your mind. For example, if you’re to be a goalscoring and exceptional footballer, you must first picture yourself in possession of the ball, controlling it and dribbling your way towards your opponent’s defense. You must see yourself approaching their goal, beating the goalkeeper and scoring your goals. You must see it, dream, and ruminate it before you get on the pitch; otherwise, it’ll be difficult for you to excel.

ALWAYS BUILD IN YOUR MIND THE RIGHT PICTURES ABOUT WHAT YOU WANT IN LIFE.

The same way, if you’re a lawyer, you must see yourself addressing the court, with the judge, other lawyers, and the entire courtroom spellbound as they watch and listen to you present your case. You must see and hear yourself making such irrefutable arguments before you get into the courtroom. It all starts from the images of your mind!

One of the beautiful things you can do for yourself as a Christian is to always build in your mind the right pictures about what you want in life. It pays when you activate your faith-eyes to see beyond your present horizon, and envision yourself living out the very best of what God has prepared for you in this world.

God never created us to suffer or live the average life where we’re barely getting by. He created us to excel and flourish in all areas of our lives. However, until you begin to see yourself that way—living in abundance, perfect health, victory, and success—it’ll be difficult for you to experience it. You must first envision yourself living in that realm, living God’s dream.

*Your Future Is History With God*

*Romans 4:17:*
_*(As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,)*_ _(He’s talking about Abraham here)_ before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.*_

Remember when God said to Abraham, _“…your name will no longer be Abram, but Abraham because I have made you a father of many nations”_ (Genesis 17:5 GW). Well, at that time Abraham had no child, and it was naturally impossible for him to, because he was old and his wife was barren. So when God told him, “I’ve made you a father of many nations,” He was calling things that be not as though they were. In other words, in the mind of God, Abraham’s future was history!

God had changed the man’s name to Abraham to reflect his new identity and align with the vision for his life, and as far as He was concerned, it was a foregone conclusion. God didn’t need to do anything more to make it happen. It was Abraham who needed to discover and align his mind with God’s idea and plan for his life.

Abraham accepted his new name and began to introduce himself as “Abraham—father of many nations.” But the lingering question was: Where were the children? How was he going to connect with this vision of God for his life and lay hold of that which God had given him?

How kind and gracious our Lord is. He knew Abraham was having difficulty connecting with this vision, and since he had no one to teach him, God had mercy on him and taught him to put his faith and imaginative power to work.

Day 4 Evening Session
*BISHOP CLARENCE McCLENDON:*

THERE ARE AT LEAST 3 THINGS THAT THE HOLY SPIRIT IS GOING TO ACCOMPLISH IN THE LIVES OF THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN HIM;

1- SUPERNATURAL SWIFT SHIFT
2- SUPERNATURAL BREAK - OUTS
3- SUPERNATURAL BREAK - INS

*****THE WORD OF GOD ISN'T SPOKEN FOR IT MERELY TO BE HEARD, BUT SPOKEN TO BE HEARD AND SPOKEN.

****YOU HAVE TO DECLARE THESE WORDS TO YOUR FAMILY, SITUATION AND CIRCUMSTANCES. GOD'S WORD DOESN'T COME TO PASS IN YOUR LIFE JUST BECAUSE GOD SAYS SO, BUT BECAUSE YOU SAY SO..... IN THE EARTH. THY WORD O LORD IS SETTLED IN HEAVEN....THE SONS, MEN AND WOMEN OF GOD HAVE TO SETTLE IT IN THE EARTH.

ISAIAH 55:8 —11 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth:it shall not RETURN UNTO ME VOID, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

***GOD'S WORD REVEALS HIS THOUGHTS AND HIS WAYS, VERSE 11B- WHEN GOD SPEAKS ( IT DOES NOT RETURN TO HIM VOID BECAUSE) YOU HAVE TO RETURN GOD'S WORD BACK TO HIM. IT PROSPERS ON THE RETURN TRIP. IF YOU'RE GOING TO SEE IT YOU HAVE TO SAY IT.

Gen 41:9 — Gen 41:40 JOSEPH IS GIVEN A COAT OF MANY COLORS; JOSEPH REPRESENTS ILLUMINATION, CLOTHED IN LIGHT. ANYTHING THAT'S MOVING FASTER THAN THE SPEED OF LIGHT IS IN THE SUPERNATURAL. THE SPIRIT OF LIGHT REVELATION ALLOWS US TO CROSS THE LIGHT LINE TO SEE INTO THE REALMS OF SPIRIT.

****I AM ANOINTED TO SEE WHAT OTHER MEN CANNOT SEE. WHAT HAS NOT YET ENTERED THE SPIRIT OF MEN IS REVEALED TO ME BY THE SPIRIT OF LIGHT..

***EVER SEEN PEOPLE DON'T LIKE YOU FOR NO REASON? ITS BECAUSE OF WHAT YOU ARE WEARING. IT'S INVISIBLE BUT IT'S TANGIBLE. BIBLE SAYS WE ARE THE AROMA OF THE ANOINTED ONE AND HIS ANOINTING..... WHEN YOU WALK BY UNBELIEVERS, HATERS THEY CAN SMELL THAT AROMA!!

****I AM PERFUMED WITH THE ANOINTING OF VICTORY!! YOU WEARING IT EVERY DAY!
2Co 2:14 — 2Co 2:16 "Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place. For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish: To the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things?

****BECAUSE OF WHAT JOSEPH IS WEARING, CLOTHED WITH ILLUMINATION AND LIGHT, HIS BROTHERS HATED HIM AND TRIED TO STRIP HIM OFF HIS ILLUMINATION, LIGHT. THAT'S WHY EVERY TIME YOU HEAR THE WORD OF GOD THE DEVIL SEEKS TO STRIP YOU OFF THE ILLUMINATION, REVELATION BECAUSE OF YOUR DREAMS.

****THE BIBLE SAYS THERE IS SUCH FAVOR ON JOSEPH THAT EVEN IN THE SITUATION OF INCARCERATION HE RISES TO THE TOP ( FROM PIT TO THE PALACE)

****FAVOR...FROM HEBREW WORD "CANAN" MEANING TO BOW, BEND OR LEAN IN KINDNESS TO ONE WHO IS KNOWINGLY INFERIOR IN OTHER WORDS WHEN GOD FAVORS YOU, HE SAYS I KNOW YOU'RE THE UNDERDOG; I KNOW YOU'RE THE ONE WHO'S GOT THE ODDS AGAINST YOU....BUT AM GOING TO DO IT FOR YOU ANYWAY!! GOD SAYS I AM GOING TO BLESS, PROMOTE, ELEVATE YOU ANYWAY! GOD IS LEANING IN YOUR DIRECTION!

****JOSEPH IS HATED BY HIS BROTHERS, FIRED FOR A LIE AND INCARCERATED.....THAT'S NOT FAIR BUT NEITHER IS FAVOUR!

****MARY AND MARTHA: REHEARSED THEIR UNBELIEF. INSTEAD OF MARY SPEAKING THE WORDS OF JESUS 4 DAYS EARLIER WHEN HE SAID THIS SICKNESS IS NOT UNTO DEATH SHE GOES TO CALL MARY INSTEAD. SOMETIMES INSTEAD OF SPEAKING GOD'S WORD WE SEEK PRAYER PARTNERS.

****YOU GOT TO WATCH WHO YOU TALK TO WHEN YOU'RE LIVING SUPERNATURALLY!! YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE THERE WHEN THE SHIFT TAKES PLACE IN THE SUPERNATURAL. SPEAK THE WORD IN YOUR ROOM!! THE BUTLER GETS OUT OF JAIL AND FOR 2 YEARS AND NEVER MENTIONS ANYTHING ABOUT JOSEPH TO THE PHARAOH UNTIL THE KING HAS A DREAM!!

****SOMEONE'S DREAM IS GOING TO DEMAND YOUR POTENTIALS AND ABILITIES; DEMAND THAT YOU BE RELEASED FROM THE CHAINS THAT BOUND YOU.

****IT WAS WHEN JOSEPH GOT INVOLVED WITH SOMEONE ELSE'S DREAMS THAT JOSEPH WAS RELEASED AND THERE WAS SUPERNATURAL SWIFT SHIFT INTO HIS POSITION OF INFLUENCE. SUPERNATURALLY JOSEPH ENTERED THE POLITICAL SOCIAL SCENE. GOD'S GOING TO SUPERNATURALLY SWIFTLY SHIFT THINGS, BREAK YOU IN, AND BREAK YOU OUT INTO WHERE HE PLANNED FOR YOU TO BE!!

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES FRIDAY, 12TH JANUARY.

YOU HAVE THE VICTORY.

These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world (John 16:33).

We’ve just read the words of Jesus; so powerful, encouraging, and comforting! He said, “…In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I HAVE OVERCOME THE WORLD .” What a consciousness. This was how Jesus lived, even though He was in a world plagued by gross darkness, economic hardships, sickness, oppression, deaths, disasters, etc., He was so detached from the problems and the corrupting influences of His day. He had a victor’s mindset; the kind He expects us to function with.

2 Timothy 3:12 says, “Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.” When challenges, persecutions, distressing situations, turbulent times, trials, and temptations come, be of good cheer; be unflustered, because you’ve already overcome them all. That’s how you’re supposed to think and live, because in Christ, you’ve overcome the world. 1 John 4:4 says, “Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.”

When you’re conscious of this, it’ll affect your prayer-language. It doesn’t matter what challenges I face, when I pray, I declare “In the Name of the Lord Jesus, I have overcome the world and its systems, its economics, hatred, poverty, corruption, depression, and falsehood.” That’s why nothing in the world can get my attention, because I’ve overcome the world in Christ.

This is true for every one of us; you’re not a victim but a victor. You’re in Christ, and His victory over the world was for you. Don’t pray to overcome; don’t try to overcome. Don’t fast to overcome. You’ve already overcome Satan, the world, and its systems: “For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?” (1 John 5:4-5).

PRAYER
I’ve overcome the world and its systems; its troubles, predicaments, afflictions and temptations, because greater is He that’s in me, than he that’s in the world. I exercise my authority in Christ over all the power and schemes of the enemy, and I’m eternally triumphant, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Psalm 34:19 Many [are] the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all.

2 Timothy 3:12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.

Romans 8:35-39 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? [shall] tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. 37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. 38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

BE VORACIOUS FOR THE WORD - PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME.

And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified (Acts 20:32).

The Word of God gives you much more than a moral code of conduct; it builds, lifts, transforms you and catapults you to your inheritance and destiny in Christ. Proverbs 11:9 tells us that through knowledge—revelation knowledge of God’s Word—shall the just be delivered into their inheritance.

Thus, you have to know the Word, store it in you, and consciously put it to work in your life. That’s your guarantee of a life of ever-increasing glory. The Bible says, “...All things are yours” (1 Corinthians 3:21); that means there’s nothing you require today that hasn’t already been made available to you by God through the Word.

This is one reason you must meditate on the Word. Become voracious in your passion, hunger, and appetite for the Word. There’s no way of appropriating the blessings of God to your life without the accurate knowledge of the Word. We triumph by the Word. We reign in life through the Word. We win, excel, and prevail over the challenges of life through, and with the Word.

The more you study and meditate on the Word, the more inspired and excited you get about the life in Christ. The knowledge of God’s Word gives you an undeniable conviction about the transcendent life of victory, righteousness, success, and dominion that Christ has brought to us! Your victory is in the Word of God, so study it to know it, for only through the knowledge will you discover and enjoy your glorious inheritance in Christ.

Study the Word for what it does in your spirit. The Word in you goes into your spirit, soul, and body, and becomes part of your being; making you what it talks about. When you ingest and digest the Word, it becomes one with your spirit, thereby enhancing and improving the quality of your personality.

Bombard your mind with the Word of God, until it completely inundates your thinking, and your life will go in one direction only: upward and forward!

WHO IS IN YOUR FRONT ROW:BY PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME DSc DD

Life is a theatre. Invite your audience carefully. Not everyone is healthy enough to have a front row seat in your life. There are some people in your life who need to be loved from a "DISTANCE". It is amazing what you can accomplish when you let go or minimize your time with those draining, negative, incompatible, not-going anywhere" relationships or friendships. Observe the relationships around you. Pay close attention.Which ones lift and which ones lean? Which ones encourage and which ones discourage? Which ones are on a path of growth uphill and which ones are going downhill? When you leave certain people, do you feel better or feel worse? Which ones always have drama or don't really understand, know or appreciate you and the gifts that lie within you?Remember that the people you have around you will have an impact on your life, your values and your income. So be careful when choosing the people you hang out with, as well as the information with which you will feed your mind.We should not share our dreams with negative people, nor feed our minds with negative thoughts. The more you seek quality, respect, growth, peace of mind, love and truth around you, the easier it will become for you to decide who gets to sit in the front row and who should be moved to the balcony of your life.Ask for wisdom and discernment, and choose wisely the people who will sit in the front row of your life. You cannot change the people around you...... but you can change the people you choose to be around.He that has ears, let him hear.God bless you.
