“What I’m trying to do here is get you to relax, not be so preoccupied with getting so you can respond to God’s giving. People who don’t know God and the way he works fuss over these things, but you know both God and how he works. Steep yourself in God-reality, God-initiative, God-provisions. You’ll find all your everyday human concerns will be met. Don’t be afraid of missing out. You’re my dearest friends! The Father wants to give you the very kingdom itself.'"Luke 12:29-32 (MSG)
The Bible says God knows what we need; he knows we want so many things and he knows and is committed to giving us our daily bread. However, his main purpose is to give us much more than bread.
He gives seed to the sower and bread to the eater.
However it is his grand plan to give us the KINGDOM. If only we ask for it.
We need to stop asking God for bread and to start asking him for seeds, because seeds generate the huge harvest sufficient to feed millions of folks we care about.
We need to look beyond God securing a space for us but rather proceed with the understanding that He wants us to have the KINGDOM and begin to ask for the nations.
Ask Big!
Be blessed!

When we long for life without difficulties, remind us that oaks grow strong in contrary winds and diamonds are made under pressure.
Peter Marshall
Diamond is a product of intense pressure and heat.
Push through the pressure do not fall nor falter, the pain is usually necessary at the core. Pain usually resonates with discipline, because it forces us to develop essential habits that are never found within the confines of our comfort zone.
The pressure is necessary to push us into the next level of performance breaking off every form of conceivable limits.
We think faster and better under pressure, we come up with the ideas we never thought we had; if only we do not give in to the thought of quitting.
Let's take a que from Diamond. It is formed at a very great depths below the grounds – the earth’s mantle. Diamond and coal are both carbon but diamond is carbon that has gone through intense heat and pressure. Many people get broken by life because they are too rigid to bend and others do not make it because of loss of focus. The rule here is BALANCE.
Pain is usually the seed of gain, it usually leads to the discontentment that births the necessity to move and flow into your next level of being. Some periods of growth are heralded by certain degree of pain, the pain is the passing away of a temporary limit, change most times wouldn't come without some rupturing some form of breaking of a fixed and old set of paradigm.
These are one of such times when the pressure creates the pleasure you have always wanted; the gain after the pain is always worthwhile, ask the Mom of a beautiful new born child.
The end product of pressure is usually a glittering, shiny gem, which turns out to be the hardest substance in the world!
Study the story of Diamond, and you will see that this is very true.
Push through the pressure and the pain, the pain is a call to raise your game for an unusual gain that awaits you on the other side.
Keep moving! Keep pushing you will eventually rise and shine. Go for Diamonds.
Your Billion-dollar/Diamond-level Friend!

No matter where you are; no matter what you do, there is always a place called forward. There is so much room at the top. Many have been there ahead of you. Ask ! for Help, seek Guidance. Take Action and Move forward. You are the one your world is waiting for. LEAD! GO FOR IT!
Most times we have goals, dreams and visions, often time we lose our drive to make things happen, we allow fear,Inertia and even analysis paralysis (too much planning and talks without actions due to fear) stop us from taking the first step.
You need to shake off all that holds you take action NOW because good things only happen to those who choose to go for it. It's your responsibility to make it happen.
God's ability and power are unlimited and all He wants for us is to be the channel of expression of the abundant life,love and riches to the world. The more of this we know the better and easier it is for us to manifest the glory. When you know this, you have no other options than to kick off inertia and take the first step!
If you want it so badly; you need to just GO FOR IT!
Go for Greatness!

It's a great day! I believe it is replete with great opportunities. One of these great opportunities is the opportunity to make money.It feels good making money. I feel good every time, my joy is not based on circumstances or material acquisition, however, I also feel good when I make money.I don't currently know anyone who feels bad making money, if there is you can share with us in the comment section :) - i love reading your feedback in the comment section below.
Today I think I owe a couple of people the need to show you how to make more money. I wish I could give you the keys to the vast wealth of the universe and I am sure that will gladden your heart, but as God will help me I will share vital tips that will do just that.
1. GOD is the Source: I have always learnt and come to terms with this every now and then. You see, this is deeper than i can fathom, but we will simply wrap our minds around it from an angle, Your paycheck isn't your source, your shop or office or no man around you is your source, they are all vital in the flow and scheme of things,however God is your source.
The Universe is filled with vast wealth and abundance, yes! No matter the contrasting things you hear in the news or you see every day or around you. There is so much wealth in the world currencies in trillions of Naira, Dollars, Pounds, Euros, Yen ...name it! Vast amount of gold,diamonds, mineral deposits, crude oil, and all forms of natural resources, they were all created by GOD, and the ones not created by God were created by man through God-inspired ideas! You will love Lessons in Abundance
THink of the Ocean, all water bodies flow from here and there and still end up in the ocean, the ocean is vast and still feeds other lives the cycle goes on and on. God is your source.So there is abundance all around you, all you need to do now is to access it and the good news is He is interested in giving you not bits of it but as much as THE KINGDOM!
2. Opportunities Abound: We are current surrounded by great opportunities more than there has ever been in the history of the world. Opportunities are always around you, on the street, in a conversation everywhere..The easier you relate with that the better.Every opportunity to solve people's problems is an opportunity to make money, because according to great motivational speaker Zig Ziglar
"
You can have everything in life you want, if you will just help enough other people get what they want. "
Imagine the growing population of the over 7.5 billions of people in the world we are not likely to run out of opportunities in our entire lifetime and the same is true for generations unborn.
3. Permit Yourself to Be Wealthy: Most people will never permit themselves to be wealthy. They continuously love and reinforce poor, self limiting beliefs and mentality.This is where the first work starts in making money flow to you and becoming really wealthy which transcends just making money today. You need to work on your desires and your belief system. HOW 'BADLY' DO YOU WANT IT, If you really want more money you must have a really strong desire and be read to take positive necessary steps to make it happen in the most legal ways.Your belief system will enhance the achievement of this goal since you now operate from a vantage point with a wealthy and healthy outlook on life.
4. Raise Your Financial Intelligence: There is a law of Money Mastery I believe in and will always share 'More Money constantly flow towards those who have mastered the creation, management and the use of money' This can also be referred to as the law of Money Stewardship, it has its basis in the parable of the talents. The Steward who was given 5 talents and made profit was given more by his master. When you have increased your wisdom in the areas of Wealth you can but have more money flowing towards you faster than you even need. You might need to read here some basics i shared on Financial intelligence like Money101 ,The 7 Ways of Making Money and Wealth Creation: 5 Ways the Rich and Wealthy Create Wealth
5. THE POWER OF AFFIRMATIONS: The Yoruba Proverb 'A pe mora eni, l'a npe TEMIDIRE' It literally means to be really blessed and experience success, 'Customize it' 'Personalize It',It must be your personal Confession. To make money flow towards you now, more than ever before, you will need to use the power of positive affirmations. Affirmations are positive confessions, i wrote a article The Power of Positive Affirmations to explain this. I share below some of my favourite wonderful affirmations that I have learnt and continue to share with people; MONEY FLOWS TO ME EASILY! I LIVE AND WALK IN ABUNDANCE; I AM GRATEFUL TO GOD FOR ABUNDANCE; I AM SUCCESSFUL; I AM BLESSED; I AM DAILY FURNISHED WITH ALL THE RESOURCES I NEED TO SHOW FORTH GOD'S GLORY. I MAKE MORE MONEY THAN I SPEND! I ALWAYS HAVE MONEY! THERE IS ABUNDANCE! I AM GRATEFUL TO GOD FOR HEALTH AND WEALTH!
I believe this will serve the purpose of making you wealthier than you currently are. I want you to be wealthy.I surely believe it is our birth right, we deserve it.Having great Wealth will help you touch more lives positively in your entire lifetime,Acknowledge God as The Source by first being grateful for what you have and what is possible, Open your eyes to opportunites and possibilites around you, Change your belief system,Raise your Financial Quotient,Be Positive and Confess Money Coming to You Easily... And More Money will come to you easily FASTER than you can Imagine!! Yes
Money Comes to Us Easily Today and Always!

If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.
Henry David Thoreau
We all have different ideas about life. Life will always be to us based on or perception of it.TO some people life is a race, to some life is like a dance, while to others life is either a game, a battle or even a marketplace.
Whatever your view is(i love to read them in the comments section), i share points here on living life more deliberately.
1. Get a hang on Life: No matter what people have called life, you personally need to get a personal perspective to life. What is life to you, and what do you plan to make out of it. What would you like to be remembered for? Reflect on it and write it down...develop your own mission statement. Evaluate it, have fun and enjoy the process.
2. Practice the art of Goal setting: How will you describe two teams setting about to play a game of soccer without goal posts; there will be no recorded scores or notable progress. This is true for a man who has got no goals. Plan your life. If you plan your resources, your life is the greatest resource you have; plan it. You need to have what I call a #GOALPAD and plan out your short-term, mid-term and long-term goals.
3. Get a hang of your Time: anyone or anything that controls your time, controls your life. Begin today to manage every minute of your life more deliberately. Plan, strategize. Do not allow life to just happen to you.Allot your time to everything instrumental your goals.
4. Note Your Ideas: Ideas are the foundations of the world's greatest empires. Ideas are the seed of every great revolution in the world. Never under-emphasize the power of ideas, carry an #IDEA pad around and note very idea that comes to you anytime anywhere.
5. Take action; You need to always take action. This is the way to achieve your dreams and goals. Taking actions is the connecting point between Ideas and desired results. Keep advancing confidently in the direction of your dreams.Never ever give up. If you fail try again, keep learning, unlearning, taking action and doing things differently. Write. Apply for a job. Start a new Business.Learn a foreign Language.Volunteer.Give. Help. Give up a bad habit. Ask the girl of your dreams out. Start a Blog. Make the Phone calls. Read a new book. Travel. Do something different. Take Action NOW!
6. Ask!!: When you ask, it shall be given to you, seek and you will find. No matter what you want to achieve, it has been achieved many times over before you, ask for directions, ask for guidance, ask for directions, ask for help, ask for responsibility, ask!!!
7. Be Exceptionally grateful: No one is able to live at high altitude without an exceptional attitude. Gratitude is the exceptional attitude that qualifies you for life at high altitudes. Cultivate the habit of Gratitude, I wrote a blog post on gratitude for 30 days , thankful for every blessing. Start a culture of gratitude. Gratitude makes blessings multiply, it makes abundant blessings move towards you faster than you can imagine, it makes you closer to God; the source of all good things. Be grateful for life , the birds, the air and every conceivable opportunity.
These are 7 ways I believe You can begin to live life more deliberately, you can share your views in the comments section.
Live Life to the fullest!

Every day, life brings new opportunities and presents you with thousands of new choices. One of the first choices you get to make each day is about your attitude. Yes, whether you realize it or not, attitude is a choice. You can't just wait and allow your circumstances to dictate your attitude; you have to be on the offensive and choose your perspective for each day. When you wake up with enthusiasm and choose to be grateful, you are "putting on" the right attitude. You are setting your day up for success and opening the door to be used by God in a powerful way.
Everyone faces difficulties. We all have obstacles that can seem impossible to overcome. However, the difference between those who are able to rise above their adversities and those who get stuck in them is attitude. I've heard that attitude determines altitude!
You don't have to be around our ministry very long to hear a message on the importance of having a thankful attitude. A thankful attitude is a form of praise. It shows that your faith and hope are in Almighty God. I believe it is one of the main keys to living the abundant life God has in store!
Today, you may have some negative things happening. You may have some challenges or unexpected situations crossing your path, but remember, a thankful attitude and a heart of praise will empower you to rise above any adversity!
Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name."
(Psalm 100:4, NIV)

Most times you need to just focus and run your own race.
Many may not know where you are going; and only a few may know where you are coming from.Only you can really answer the vital question of where you currently are and where you want to be.
The most vital thing for you to do is to run your own race.
The world may be full of noises but choose to be a voice; a positive one.
We usually find ourselves among mixed multitudes; it's your duty to always choose to stand behind yourself;evaluate and re-strategize.
The crowds are important they form the multitude in the market place,the audience, the onlookers and the congregation, yet, do not get lost among the crowd, choose to be yourself;your very best, and to your own very self be true.
No matter what. Run your Race; it is peculiar to who you are and who you are set to become.
Reach for Greatness!

It's a great day. I remembered an old poem and I love to share it this morning. I hope you Enjoy it.
AN OLD RAT'S TALE
He was a rat, and she was a rat,
And down in one hole they did dwell.
And each was as black as your Sunday hat,
And they loved one another well.
He had a tail, and she had a tail,
Both long and curling and fine.
And each said, "My love's tail is the finest tail
In the world, excepting mine!"
He smelt the cheese, and she smelt the cheese,
And they both pronounced it good;
And both remarked it would greatly add
To the charm of their daily food.
So he ventured out and she ventured out;
And I saw them go with pain.
But what them befell I never can tell,
For they never came back again.
—LAURA E. RICHARDS.

Someone once opined that " Life is a battle field. Every champion is a fighter. if you want anything in life, you must be ready to fight" I believe in
the concept of abundance, yes, there is no scarcity however I also believe in the though shared however most times man is his own greatest enemy and
most battles will be against his own self; his self-doubts, fears, mental-laziness and inertia.
I also heard a man of God share recently that "WORTH is the thing that God placed inside everything. worth is intrinsic.
VALUE is my assessment of the worth of a thing or person. Price is what I am willing to pay for that assessment."
These are nice words with in-depth lessons when reflected on.
I just finished a great book (I am in the process of reviewing and sharing it here); it stresses the truth that everything is created from a Thought
Substance..
We therefore must Keep learning, sharing and keep tracking,thinking and reflecting without neglecting the need to take action and look out for the feed-backs that unfold.
Indeed "Same Principles!.." but perhaps different applications
Unleash Your Greatness!

Rejoice and exult in hope; be steadfast and patient in suffering and tribulation; be constant in prayer.
– Romans 12:12
We're to live in hope. We're to rejoice. So, when Satan comes to steal your victory and tell you that God is not going to help you this time, you just think on the Word of God and start rejoicing. Rejoice that you're in Him. Rejoice that heaven is your home. Rejoice that greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world. Rejoice. Brag on God today. The devil can't stand it!
"Be steadfast and patient in suffering and tribulation...." Tribulation means "being under pressure." When pressure comes, don't cave in. Don't faint. Instead, go to the throne of grace. Go boldly in the Name of Jesus and get the help you need.
Remember this: When things get hard isn't when you let go of the Word. That's when you double up on it. That's when you are "constant in prayer" so that you are unmovable.
Rejoice. Be patient under pressure. Be constant in prayer. The devil won't be able to steal one thing from you!

51 Ways Ordinary People Reached World-Class
By Robin Sharma
(#1 bestselling author of The Leader Who Had No Title)
Hope you’re in hot pursuit of excellence on this gift of a day (you’ll only get this day once in your entire lifetime so I encourage you to use it well).
The reality is the great achievers + game-changers just did DIFFERENT (and seemingly strange) things.
So in my ongoing devotion to help you create a life you adore and reach rare-air success, I’ve distilled the unusual things the best performers do into this quick list. Read it now:
THE 51 WAYS ORDINARY PEOPLE REACHED WORLD-CLASS
1. Know what you want. Clarity is power. And vague goals promote vague results.
2. Remember that every problem has a solution. Maybe you just can’t see it. Yet.
3. In this Age of Dramatic Distraction, the performer who focuses the best wins the most.
4. Before someone will help you, you need to help them.
5. Become the most passionate person you know. It’ll be contagious.
6. Know more about your craft/the work you do than anyone who has ever done the work you do…in the history of the world.
7. Join The 5 am Club. Your most valuable hours are 5am-8 am. They have the least interruptions.
8. Devote yourself to learning something new about your field of mastery every day. Success belongs to the relentless learners. Because as you know more, you can achieve more.
9. Remember that when you transform your fitness, you’ll transform your business.
10. Don’t check your mobile when you’re meeting with another person. It’s rude. And rude people don’t reach world-class.
11. Every time you do what scares you, you take back the power that you gave to the thing that scared you. And so you become more powerful.
12. A problem is only a problem if you make the choice to see it as a problem.
13. Stop being a victim. Your business and personal life was made by you. No one else is responsible. To make it better, make better choices. And new decisions.
14. You can lead without a title. Don’t wait to get a position to stand for excellence, peak quality and over delivery on every expectation.
15. Find your own style. Be an original. Every superstar differentiated themselves from The Herd. And marched to their own drumbeat.
16. Understand that when you play small with your success, you betray your potential. And the birthright you were born under.
17. Eat less food and you’ll get more done.
18. As you become more successful, stay really really hungry. Nothing fails like success. Because when you’re successful, it’s easy to stop out learning+ out Over Delivering +out thinking and out executing everyone around you. (Success is Beautiful. And dangerous).
19. If you’re not over prepared, you’re under prepared.
20. The only level of great manners to play at is “Exceedingly Polite”. In our world, this alone will make you a standout. And differentiate you in your marketplace.
21. Remember that the moment you think you’re a Master, you lose your Mastery. And the minute you think you know everything, you know nothing.
22. To double your results, double your level of execution.
23. Invest in your personal and professional development. All superstars do.
24. Get this year’s best Targets of Opportunity down onto a 1 Page Plan. Then review it every morning while the rest of the world sleeps.
25. You don’t get lucky. You create lucky.
26. When you push through a difficult project, you don’t get to the other side. You reach The Next Level.
27. Smile. And remember to inform your face.
28. Spend time in solitude every day. Your best ideas live there.
29. Debrief on how you lived out your day every night in a journal. This will not only record your personal history, it will make you uber-clear on what you’re doing right and what needs to be improved.
30. If you’re not being criticized a lot, you’re not doing very much. Ridicule is the price of ambition.
31. Develop a monomaniacal focus on just a few things. The secret to productivity is simplicity.
32. To get the results very few people have, be strong enough to do what very few people are willing to do.
33. Rest. Recover. It’ll make you stronger.
34. Buy a smaller TV and build a larger library.
35. Remember that the bigger the goal, the stronger a person you must become to achieve that goal. So goal-achieving is a superb practice for character-building.
36. Food fuels your body. Learning feeds your mind.
37. Don’t ask for respect. Earn it.
38. Finish what you start. And always end strong.
39. Breathe.
40. In business, don’t play to survive. Play to win.
41. Protect your good name. It’s your best asset.
42. Remember that words have power. Use the language of leadership versus the vocabulary of a victim.
43. Give more than you take. The marketplace rewards generosity.
44. Know that if it’s not messy, you’re not making progress.
45. Be a hero to a kid.
46. In business, aim for iconic. Go for legendary. Make history by how awesome you are at what you do.
47. Please don’t confuse activity with productivity. Many many people are simply busy being busy.
48. Your doubts are liars. Your fears are traitors. Stop buying the goods they are attempting to sell you.
49. The best anti-aging remedy in the world is working really hard.
50. World-Class performers have no plan B. Failure just isn’t an option.
51. You have the power to change the world–one brave act and one person at a time. Please use it.
The Lessons are from Robin Sharma.
