SATISFACTION

I’m back after a long break. I had to get rid of some exams and a project work. But I’m through with it all so expect more messages. Back in Junior High School, I had a friend who we knew as the ladies’ man. He was always fooling around with ladies. He became popular with so many nicknames. He was also very intelligent and got the attention of almost everyone including the teachers. He told me he had committed almost every sin before. I doubted it so I made him explain himself. He said, first of all, he was sexually immoral. That is he watches pornography, press the breast and buttocks of ladies and run away. Back in the days, video cassettes players were used to watch videos. Also we had video rental shops around. He told me that he had finished watching all the pornographic films at a particular video rental shop and that whenever he goes to rent a pornographic video cassette from that shop, he realises that he has watched it before. He told me he started fornicating at the age of ten and at the age of fourteen he was caught having sex with a lady. Due to that he changed and turned into a homosexual for two years. I just couldn’t believe all that I was hearing but he told me he was telling me the truth. He also told me he had drunk alcohol before. He told me he followed a lady to a drinking spot and tasted alcohol for first time only to be carried to his room. He never took it again because he didn’t like the experience. For smoking, he tasted it for first time when another friend lighted a piece of a cain and he sucked the smoke into his mouth and started coughing. Again he never smoked again because he didn’t like the experience. For stealing, he stole for first time in nursery. He stole a friend’s toy and was caught and punished. Again he didn’t like the experience so he never stole again. And the sins go on and on and on. But through all this, he told me that, HE WAS NEVER SATISFIED. He told me that most often he felt regret and guilty after committing some of the sins. He wished he could stop but couldn’t till one day. He told me that he fornicated one day and felt a very strong feeling of regret. This made him changed from all his bad ways he said. He stopped fooling around with ladies, stealing, fornicating etc. This happened at the age of sixteen. He gave his life to Christ at the first altar call at church in Senior High School by confessing Lord Jesus and accepting him into his life as stated in the Holy Bible at Romans 10:9-10 and I quote “that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God had raised Him from the dead you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. (NKJV)”. Since then his life has never been the same. He is now nine years old in Christ. So if you are in a similar situation, as a motivator and counsellor, I will encourage you not to give up and to keep on praying and God will surely visit you one day and take you out of that. Also get yourself occupied with activities at church as that will also take your mind off certain things. After my friend gave his life to Christ, things started to turn around. It was then that he realised where the satisfaction was. HE TOLD ME THAT HE IS NOW SATISFIED. There is total satisfaction in Christ Jesus. So if you want to enjoy this satisfaction then I will encourage you to give your life to Christ. It’s simple. Just say this prayer after me Lord Jesus I thank you for coming to me today. Lord Jesus, forgive me for all my sins and come into my life. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and personal saviour. Come into my heart and take control over my life. I surrender my will to you. Come and direct my path. I thank you Lord Jesus for coming into my life in Jesus name. Amen!!! Congratulations and welcome to the world of satisfaction in Christ Jesus. Now find for yourself a Bible believing church and attend. Also don’t forget to pray without season. Finally, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God and the sweet fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with you now and forever more. Amen!!!!!!!

SOMEHOW

SOMEHOW
This is the second part of the message “To The Christians”. Before I add sugar to the cup of coffee, do you believe in the existence of heaven and hell? If yes, then let continue but if no, then find yourself a Holy Bible and read the whole book of Revelation, after visit www.scholum.wordpress.com for the story of a young girl who died for 23 hours and got the chance to tour heaven and hell with God and came back to life to tell her story. Going to heaven after death is a gain but going to hell after death is a great loss. Have you ever thought of losing it all or gaining it all?
Going to heaven or hell is SOMEHOW. Why do I say so? There lived a certain woman who was a chorister in a certain church. The woman was leading a righteous life and one day the pastor offended her but instead of telling the pastor, she kept it to herself and did not forgive the pastor. She unfortunately died after sometime. But all members of the church thought she was in heaven due to her righteous life. Sadly she was in hell and nobody knew till God revealed it to one of the church members through a dream. In the dream she was asked how she got there and she said because of unforgiveness. All because she did not forgive the pastor.
Now let talk about the two thieves crucified together with Jesus. Now according to the Holy Bible in the book of Luke 23:39-43 and I quote “Then one of the criminals who were hanged blasphemed Him, saying, “If You are the Christ, save Yourself and us.”But the other, answering, rebuked him, saying, “Do you not even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation? “And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward of our deeds; but this Man has done nothing wrong.” Then he said to Jesus, “Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom.” And Jesus said to him, “Assuredly, I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.””””(NKJV)Amen. Comparing the two situations, you realise that the choirister was a leading a righteous life and one sinful move which is unforgiveness quickly sent her to hell. Morever, you realise that the thief was leading a sinful life and one righteous move which was condemning the blasphemy, fearing God and accepting he had sinned sent him to heaven. We are not different from the thief and the choirister. We are human beings like them. So this could equally happen to us. Do you see why I said going to heaven or hell is SOMEHOW? I’m not telling you this to discourage you but to motivate you to keep on pressing towards the goal of serving God well in truth and in spirit, making disciples for Christ and going to heaven with them. When you fall, quickly rise up and get back into the race of pressing towards the goal. But if you remain there, you will lose the strength to continue and I pray that never be your portion. So step on the accelerator because we are almost there. We are in the end time.
In a nut shell I quote “Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.” Amen (NKJV) 1 Corinthians 15:58.

COCKISH BEHAVIOUR

COCKISH BEHAVIOR
Wondering where this coinage “cockish” came from? Well, it’s my coinage and it simply means the behaviour of a cock. I had wanted to give this message to my readers some few months ago but thought it wise to deliver it a day after father’s day.
Cockish behaviour is the behaviour of some fathers. Pardon me for being harsh on these fathers who behave cockishly. These fathers get the strength, charisma, courage, and endurance to get a woman pregnant but refuse to accept the responsibility of taking care of the woman and the child. Such cockish behaviour should not be encouraged. The funny and sad aspect of this, is that, it doesn’t end on the first woman but they move on to the next woman immediately the first get pregnant and this continues till they have no more strength to continue on that expedition. This behaviour is not different from the cock which crosses any hen which comes along it path. But the cock’s own ends in a soup. When these fathers are weak and can’t continue their expedition they start searching for their children, not to take care of them but to be taken care of especially when their children are well to do, reaping what they’ve not sown. These well to do children got mothers with henish behaviours which is feeding, protecting, sheltering and providing the basic needs for their young ones. The hen protects it chicks from the hawk and other predators, feeds the chicks regularly and provide shelter by keeping chicks under it’s wings. Henish is also my coinage so don’t bother searching for it in the dictionary and it simply means the behaviour of a hen.
As a motivator and counsellor, I will urge fathers with henish behaviour to keep it up and those with cockish behaviour to desist from it as was also said by British Prime Minister yesterday. Moreover, victims of cockish behaviour fathers should kindly find a place in their hearts to forgive them and repented cockish behaviour fathers should also advice others in it to stop and search for their children as the father of Kelly Rowland did yesterday.
Finally, better late than never, as a motivator and counsellor, I wish all fathers and to be fathers, happy father’s day!!!!!!!!!!!!

TURNING POINTS OF LIFE

TURNING POINTS OF LIFE
I was pondering over which message to give my readers this month but nothing was coming to mind. So I decided to let this month go by hoping to peradventure get a message for my readers next month but something unexpectedly happened to me. I was charging the battery of my phone with a universal charger when it suddenly exploded. The battery got destroyed with the universal charger so my phone is useless now. But few hours before the incident my phone was functioning correctly. This is an example of turning point. Now what do I mean by turning point of Life?
Life is like a game of soccer. When the team you support is leading, things seem to be going on well for you and you don’t expect the team you support to lose the game. But when there is sudden turnaround of event and the opposing team equalises and takes the lead and the game ends. There is also a corresponding turnaround of physical and emotional state of being. This brings sadness to the one whose team took the lead first and happiness to the one who support the opposing team. So it is in life. Sometimes things seem to be going on well with you in life and you don’t expect any misfortune to come your way. But things suddenly go wrong resulting in a turnaround in your physical and emotional state of being. You become sad and perplexed, not knowing what to do.
As a motivator and counsellor, I will urge you to put what happened behind you and think of what is ahead of you. What do I mean? Let say you wrote an exam made of five papers and you failed four and passed one or a beloved one passed away or you lost a precious item or lost a position and so on. If you cry the whole day it will not make things right. If you sleep the whole day it will not make things right. If you drink alcohol the whole day it will still not make things right and so on. So the best thing is to put it behind you and move on because when you remain there you sit on your success. I know it is not easy and it is so painful but you still have to try and put it behind you. Sometimes you try and it doesn’t work but you have to keep on trying and with time you will be able to put it behind you. Always learn from the past and put it behind you. Thinking of what is ahead of you comes into play when you go back to the drawing board and start all over again. As you starting, you pray to your creator to see you through and strengthen you as you make the move.
Sometimes, it is the other way round that is things seem not to be going on well for you and there is sudden turn around and things start going on well for you. A sudden strong feeling of joy occupies your physical and emotional states of being.
At that climax, as a motivator and counsellor I will urge you to give thanks to your creator.
Finally these turning points in life make us matured and experienced in life so is not all about sadness. Also never feel you are the only one going through this turning point of life because we are all going through it.
A coffin maker prays to his or her creator for his or her coffin to be bought but that can only happen when someone dies. A drug seller prays to his or her creator for his or her drug to be bought but that can only happen when someone falls sick.
In a nut shell, turning points of life are inevitable but remember your creator is always with you and will always see you true, so don’t give up on life because of these turning points, because if you are not dead you don’t know what you will get!!!!!!!

TO THE CHRISTIANS

TO THE CHRISTIANS
First of all, happy valentine’s day to all my readers and followers. Wondering what I’m doing here on Valentine’s Day, guess what I have a nice Valentine’s Day special present for you and I’ve entitled it “To The Christians”. Before you read, start to ponder on the title for some few seconds. Now I believe you are done so let’s zoom into action. Before I say anything let’s read something on what the scripture says about eternal life. 1John 5:13 says “These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God that you may know that you have eternal life” Amen. Also John 5:24 says “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears my word and believes in him that sent me has everlasting life and shall not come into judgement but has passed from death into life” Amen.
Most Christians of today, tend to doubt their chances of going to heaven. Also ignorance of eternal life is making some also doubt their chances of going to heaven. Others also look at themselves and think they are not qualified. But the more you look at yourself the more you see faults which make you feel uneasy. But this shouldn’t be so.
As a motivator and counsellor, I will say as long as you’ve accepted Jesus Christ as your personal saviour, baptized, having the Holy Spirit within you, and leading a righteous life, you shouldn’t doubt this chance of going to heaven. We all make mistakes but one or two mistakes should not let you doubt this chance. What do I mean by this? You fornicated and so what? You practiced homosexualism and so what? You masturbated and so what? You practiced lesbianism and so what? You watched pornography and so what? You kissed someone and so what? You stole and so what? You gossiped and so what? Many other mistakes which I can’t list all. Is this the reason you are not going to church anymore? Is this the reason you hide at the back during prayer meetings? Is this the reason you don’t have your quiet time anymore?
When you make a mistake, accept it, correct it and keep on pressing towards the goal. How? Get on your knees, pray to God to strengthen you and increase the concentration of the Holy Spirit within you. Grant you self control and join you as you get back into the race. There will always be criticisms from friends, neighbours, course mates, roommates, fellow church members, family members etc but that should not weigh you down. Instead just welcome them, say thank you, and continue pressing towards the goal.
Conversely, this should not be an opportunity for us to continually and willingly sin with the intention of still having eternal life and still in the race. We will lose this eternal life and get kicked out of the race if we continually and willingly sin. The scriptures confirms this in Hebrews 6:4-6 which says “For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the son of God and put him to an open shame” Amen. As a motivator and counsellor, I believe self control and the increased concentration of the Holy Spirit within you will help you continue in this race of pressing towards the goal.
Remember, God is not a man to go back on his promise. Whatever he says, that he does. So what the problem and why are you looking down on yourself? Rise up, shake the problem and doubt off and get back into the race of pressing towards the goal.
And as you are in the race, remember you are always the head and not the tail. Time up, got to continue the race, so see you in heaven!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RELATIONSHIP

RELATIONSHIP
Although I’ve never been in a relationship before, but I’ve mingled, and still single because I don’t want to entangle myself into what I can’t disentangle myself from. My knowledge on relationship is from a whole lot of sources which time will not permit me to acknowledge all of them.
Before you get into a relationship, you start to ponder over the reasons for getting into it, wonder about what goes into it and yonder about it.
Some go into relationship for only sex but relationship is not all about sex. As a result, some end up being ditched. Others are also ditched for other reasons. But when you are ditched, you don’t have to be sad, sit all alone and feel bad. Don’t think there is no hope and all is lost. Do you know how beautiful or handsome you are? The spirit of your creator leaves and dwells in you. All over the world, no one looks like you. You can put a smile on your face. Your creator watches you and his eyes are like a sparrow. Your creator knows all the pain you’ve being going through. Do you know you are the apple of his eyes? Take a look inside of you. Take your time at what you see. Isn’t it is so beautiful? Look at how beautiful or handsome your creator made you. Look at the beauty of his works.Come on,cheer up!!
The foundation of a good relationship is good communication,quality time and sacrifice.What do i mean by sacrifice,sometimes you have to give up on certain things you cherished so much for your partner to enjoy the relationship. This brings about understanding and chemistry in the relationship. Good communication generally means knowing what is going on with each other. Quality time basically means having time for each other at yonder from everything which will promote some privacy and heart to heart talk.
The chemistry comes in the feeling of belongingness. That is feeling some kind emptiness in the absence of one another.
But as to the multi-billion dollar question, that is “IS IT GOOD TO ENTER INTO A RELATIONSHIP DURING YOUR EDUCATIONAL CYCLE?”
As a motivator and counsellor I will say; to everything there is a season and a time. Your creator’s time is the best!!!!!!!!!

SITUATIONS OF LIFE

SITUATIONS OF LIFE
As one is sick, the other is as fit as a fiddle. As one is weeping, the other is jubilating. As one is brought forth, the other is buried. As one is satisfied, the other is hungry. As one is happy, the other is sad. As one passed, the other failed. As one is playing, the other is learning. As one is rich, the other is poor. As one is building, other’s is being dismantled. As one won, the other lost. As one is weeding in a sunny day for daily bread, the other is sitting in a luxurious office for daily bread. As one has many children, the other is barren. As one is travelling by bus, the other is travelling by foot. As one is handicapped, the other is having all body parts. All these situations do happen at the same time. That is, as one is in a situation, the other is also facing another situation at the same point in time.
The situations are so many that time will not permit me to elaborate on all of them.
But this is what I have to say. It is not our creator’s intention that bad things befall us but sometimes it is as a result of the choices we make in life. Remember, what you sow is what you reap. It could also be natural circumstances which are beyond our control.
But as a counsellor and motivator, I will urge you to give thanks to your creator in whatsoever situation you find yourself. Don’t let the situation be a stumbling block but keep on pressing towards the goal. Therefore laying aside every weight let us look unto our creator the author and finisher of our faith. Also remember all things work together for our good, to them that love their creator and to them that are called according to his purpose. Never let any situation belittles you but rather belittle the situation. Also remember life is how you make it so if you let any situation belittles you, your life will also be belittled. Learn to do your best in every situation you find yourself. Also cultivate the habit of always being happy because getting yourself worried always doesn’t add a dime to your life but rather affect your health.
Always aspire to acquire the desire you admire. Don’t retire even when people conspire because you have a creator who will make their plans expire. If you misfire, never retire because your creator will lift you higher. Keep on pressing towards the goal and you will reach higher.
No matter the situation, remember your creator is always with you and will never leave you. Cheer up and give thanks to your creator for his everlasting love!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
