10 FACTS About Mistakes


1. Everyone has made one before. I am yet to come across any individual who is yet to have at least a dozen.

2. It is part of learning. Only a foolish person learns nothing from a mistake.

3. It is a painful reminder that you are not perfect. This should spur you to rely more on the Perfect One - Jesus.

4. It brings temporary pain that births correct future decisions. Again this applies to the wise.

5. It makes one's success story sweet. This is why you mustn't allow a mistake to destroy you.

6. Ignoring, defending or justifying it is an act of cowardice. Admit it when you make one and make amends.

7. The fear of it deprives one of a lot of good. Don't let fear of making mistakes stop you from doing the good you should.

8. God doesn't make mistakes. You may not understand His ways but don't stop trusting Him.

9. Frequent mistakes is a sign of irresponsibility. If you are making same mistakes again and again it means you are not taking your life seriously.

10. Mistakes could be irredeemable. There are some mistakes that are beyond repair, for one you mustn't miss Jesus if heaven is your goal.

Dust off the shame, guilt and pain. Rise up, accept responsibility, take corrective steps, talk to God and LIVE THE RIGHT!

Mistaken Identity

Nothing hurts more than when people take you to be something negative which you are not. If not handled properly it can dry the oil of motivation. Joseph had a DREAM but his brothers mistook him for a DREAMER. They said to one another, "...Behold, this dreamer cometh." (Genesis 37:19) Having a dream is NOT the same as being a dreamer. A dream is an appointment with destiny. A person who has a dream has an appointment that must be fulfilled. A dreamer is a person whose ideas and plans are not practical or based in reality. A dreamer is a joker. He talks about things he has no passion nor commitment to carry out. Joseph's brothers thought he was a dreamer. They were blinded by envy and driven by rage. They mistook their saviour for a serpent and tried to kill him, but God delivered Joseph out of their hands. Don't expect people to accept your dreams, They will call you a dreamer and it will hurt your feelings. They will try to bury your dreams but God will...

3 Reasons Why You Need Jesus

1. There is an afterlife. Even people that do not believe in God have an unspoken assurance within them that there is an afterlife. In the afterlife there are two destinations, good (heaven) and bad (hell). Jesus is the ONLY way to the good part. 2. There is  war in this life. Everyone is at war! War within, war without, war amongst, war everywhere. The enemy (devil) that we wrestle knows he has limited time to wreck his havoc. Our enemy is relentless and brutal, he has no respect for positions and titles, he works wickedness everyday. The only name he fears is JESUS, you need Jesus to win every war, have rest, peace and lasting victory. 3. Spiritual Fulfilment. Human beings are mere branches to the Tree (God). No matter how hard we try to satisfy ourselves with other things, there is a deep ache in our hearts if we don't have a relationship with God. Jesus is the only fulfilling link to the Father. Jesus is our spiritual lifeblood. If we are ever going shed the spi...

WAY MAKER.

GOD KNOWS YOUR FUTURE, But it's more than that; God determines your future. I saw the story of a man of wealth in the papers. There was an image of a fuel attendant on one side and that of a man smiling in affluence on the other. The man had risen from being a fuel attendant to owner of a viable oil company. I checked and I discovered his testimony wasn't peculiar, there are many more similar breakthroughs. Let us not make the mistake that some made in putting their experience, knowledge and exposure before the word of God. Years ago there was a famine in the city of Samaria (so tough that people began to exchange their children as food) and all policies failed. There was a total shutdown. The word of the Lord came one day that the famine would end the very next day and there would be surplus. It sounded incredulous and a high ranking officer said "even if God opened windows in heaven it wouldn't be." That was the end of him. God's word was fulfilled...
