DO NOT ENVY THE UNRIGHTEOUS BY OLUWABUNMI AREGBESOLA

DO NOT ENVY THE UNRIGHTEOUS BY OLUWABUNMI AREGBESOLA

I know I am blessed.

I am aware I cannot be poor.

Each time I see people stinking in wealth, I do not envy them.

Though there are some who got their wealth in a clean way, we cannot dispute the fact that some gather their wealth through unclean means.

That man you see spending carelessly on the street and you go back to your room weeping and start saying God is not doing you well, do you know how he got his wealth?

Do you know if he sleeps soundly like you do every night?

Do you know what he ruminates upon every second?

Do you know he lacks peace because he got his wealth in an unclean way?

His hands are full of the bloodshed of innocent lives yet you pray to become like him.

You are there and God granted you peace that surpass all understanding.

You have a good sleep because your hands are clean.

People who come closer to you see how gracious God is to you. You are blessed with every spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.

You do not lack anything.

Why then do you have to envy the wicked seeing he will perish with his wealth unless he repents?

Why then do you have to compare yourself with the unrighteous since you know he won't last?

NOT WITHOUT A FATHER

NOT WITHOUT A FATHER For those who are so close to me, they will know I rarely mention my Dad. He's alive and healthy. I grew up not knowing my Dad. I grew up not knowing what fatherly love meant. My Dad is very much alive but we are far from each other. I was around 11 years or so before he came looking for me. First of all, I am grateful to God for giving me my mum. She went through a lot raising me. So, while I was growing up, I envied those who talked about their dad so much. I wish I could be like them. I wish I could have someone who would be able to show me love. I didn't know fatherly love not until when I met my Spiritual father in Ibadan in 2010. He received me with open arms. For several years, I lived with hurt and hatred in my heart. I cried bitterly most times when I reminisce about so many things. A day came when I heard God said to me"For this reason were you separated from your mother's womb, you are not accidental...

THE KID'S LOVE STORY (CHAPTER 1)

PREPARING TO BE A HELP MEET BY DEBI PEARL THE KID'S LOVE STORY (CHAPTER 1) Moral to the story: God wants, no, He needs us to pray. CAUTION: Don't pray amiss. The kid's love story is that of the author herself; Debi Pearl. She had just turned 13 when she first saw her man in a program and immediately she knew he was the right one for her. Of course the man didn't notice her not until many years later. Why would God bypass a guy of at least 21 years old, and come to a kid of 13 years old telling her he was the one she was going to marry. Sounds weird right? God does not do anything without a reason. He is the God who knows the end, right from the beginning. When the young Debi got home, she told her mum, and her mum began to follow her up to always pray for the man of God. The young Debi took it upon herself, praying for the man of God. She wasn't praying to be his wife, neither was she praying for him to notice her. She...

REVIEW OF THE MOVIE;THE TRAIN

REVIEW OF THE MOVIE;THE TRAIN So you see, before we start envying someone because of the height they have attained, please mellow. You do not understand what they have been through. You do not know how they have arrived at that point. You do not know how they have sacrificed their ALL on the altar of sacrifice. Till then, let's go back to God and pray that He helps us to be yielded to Him completely. I got teary at some points watching the movie. This is the movie I found many lessons to learn. I know I am not going to remain the same after this time. I sure know you won't remain the same too. If you haven't watched the movie, please do. LESSONS LEARNT 1.No man loves to be identified with a failure. Everyone loves to be identified with successful men. This was the case when Abayomi was asked to act the role of Goliath and he declined. 2. Watch out when you no longer love to dwell in the secret place, wh...

HOW I NARROWLY ESCAPED RAPE

HOW I NARROWLY ESCAPED RAPE Okay, before you go on, I am sending a big hug to you if you are a rape victim. I know it's not easy forgetting the ugly incidence but I want to tell you to let go of the past. I am not here to point accusing finger at you for whatever happened in the past. The past is past. Let your new you emerge. Come to love yourself. Forgive yourself. Forgive that person who defiled you. Let God wrap you in His arms. Majority of rape incidence happens because of the carelessness on the part of the lady. A lady who's frequenting a guy's house in odd hours may not return the same way she came if she's not careful. We can't also overlook the fact that some guys are monsters. They are wolves in sheep's clothing. They may appear harmless but they are like serpents. May God arrests their hearts. One day Dinah, Leah's daughter, went to visit some of the young women who lived in the area. But when the local prince, Shechem son of ...
