THE JOURNEY OF A THOUSAND MILES BEGINS WITH A SINGLE STEP BY OLUWABUNMI AREGBESOLA When it seems the journey looks tiresome, When everything seems not to be going on as planned, When it seems you have to stop that project halfway, please remember that the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. You don't have to panic because others are ahead of you. There is no comparison in this journey, please be mindful of your own life. Envying others will only make the whole journey burdensome. It will make you not to see what God is doing but rather, what men are doing. Don't panic because others are ahead of you, please take that bold step of starting the journey. Listen friend, Jesus didn't just appear on earth one day to die for mankind. He took it one step after the other, He understood times and seasons. Do not think in your heart that you will wake up one day to find yourself at that desired level. Stop daydreaming, start having visio

HEY FRIEND! GOD IS NOT FAR AWAY BY OLUWABUNMI AREGBESOLA “I don’t run away from a challenge because I am afraid. Instead, I run towards it because the only way to escape fear is to trample it beneath your foot.” – Nadia Comaneci Stop praying for challenges not to come because they are there to groom us up. You are not ignorant that you are more than a conqueror. Those challenges are stepping stones to your greatness.  Your disposition in the time of trials shows the real stuff you are made of. You are a coward if your strength fails in the day of adversity.  We shouldn't fear the plots of darkness because their case is a done deal. Christ has conquered them. They can only roar like a lion. Forget it, if their gathering is not of the Lord, they shall be scattered.  God never disallowed the devil to test Job because He was confident He won't fail. At the end of the trial, he came out stronger. At the end of that challenge, you will come out stronger if you

BE CONNECTED TO THE SOURCE BY OLUWABUNMI AREGBESOLA Good evening, how was the service today? Trust you enjoyed the flow? If you still hide some bitterness against your pastor, please let go of it. You speak against a minister of God and still expects to be blessed under his ministration, not so my dear. People share with you how they have been blessed in time past and how they are experiencing God's blessings under his ministrations and you keep wondering why you have remained on a spot since. Don't expect to be blessed when you hide bitterness in your heart. Enjoy the flow of God. When some folks visit their church members, the topic of their discussion throughout would be centred on the minister of God. They are quick at finding fault with their pastor. Every ministration you find yourself, connect with God and know He is the one who is set to bless you not minding the status of the person handling the microphone. The minister is not the one in

I WISH TO BE LIKE YOU, BUT I DON'T WANT TO KNOW WHAT YOU HAVE BEEN THROUGH BY OLUWABUNMI AREGBESOLA My friend came visiting and I fell in love with her hairdo. Thank God I was preparing to make my hair the following day. I saw how the hairdo fitted her and I was tempted to also make the same.  On our way to the salon, we saw a woman who wore almost the same hairdo. When she saw us, she told my friend how difficult the hair would be to loose. I was discouraged but I was determined to make the hair. Lol!  Getting to the salon, chai! My eyes were sore red in the process of making the hair. You understand what I mean now?  It was then my friend started narrating her experiences as touching the hair. She was like, she took paracetamol when she first made it. She even had to mop the hair with hot water when she was feeling much pain. She told me how someone said the hairdo looks like that of a old woman.  I was like you didn't tell me all these at first o. I

TRAIN YOUR CHILDREN IN THE WAY OF THE LORD; LIVE RIGHTLY BEFORE THEM BY OLUWABUNMI AREGBESOLA When I was very little, I remembered a day playing outside with some children. A man was passing by, he was a perpetual drunkard. I called the man his usual name and mummy was told. Oh my my! She spanked me and told me never to say such thing again. It is very uncommon to see the children of devout Christians growing wayward. Such parents have set themselves as pacesetters for their children, the children must surely take after them. It is good to correct your children but the best way to instill discipline into them is to live an exemplary life before them. Imagine a mother telling her children never to curse but such mother's vocation thrives well in terms of raining curses on people. Such mother should not be surprised when the child becomes an expertise in raining curses on people. Children are very sensitive, starting from their babyhood, they observe their parent

YIELD NOT TO TEMPTATION BY OLUWABUNMI AREGBESOLA "The only time we want to how irresponsible we are is when we back up our acts of disobedience with reasons either genuine or not. " It is not forbidden when you see that beautiful creature. Of course she is the handiwork of the perfect God, but when you begin to crave for an intimate relationship with her so you could access her, you are yielding to temptation already. Do not create an atmosphere where your flesh will be gratified. Do not say after the whole thing that you were blindfolded. You started the whole thing, why will you blame the devil or anybody? You are the sole factor responsible for your downfall. There is no doubt that everything surrounding us is not attacking temptation but rather influencing it. We can create our own atmosphere which is the presence of God to sanitize our heart and to keep our eyes from beholding vanity. It is not the pleasure of God seeing His own yielding to tempt

I AM ASSURED MY FUTURE IS SECURED IN HIM BY OLUWABUNMI AREGBESOLA Though there be many challenges here and there, though it seems all things are not going the way I planned but I am assured my  future is secured in God.  I do not have to fear what man can do to me. I solely rest in His arms. I cannot be harmed because I am hidden in the hollow of His hands.  Let them gather against you, but if their gathering is not of the Lord, they shall be scattered. You don't need to shiver because you are hid in Him.  My soul, rest in the Lord! You don't have to wander about. You need to come into agreement with my Spirit.  I have set the Lord always before me, I don't have to fear what man can do to me. I am rest assured my future is hid in Him.  The future is vague if God is absent.  There is nothing called future if God is not involved.  The thought of God towards me is to give me a future and a hope.  Beloved, be rest assured your future is secur
