| The Thinker |
Today, I share with you some of the insights I have received from the Word of God (i.e. the Bible) and from some of His generals (anointed ministers of the Gospel of Christ). In all, they are 32 inspired thoughts and they have been numbered as such. It is my hope that these inspired thoughts would minister to you, encourage you and spur you on to greater heights. Here we go:
1.
The Lord's persona is His glory. His glory emanates
from who He is. The more I get to know Him the more His glory in my life
intensifies.
o
When Moses asked the Lord to show him his glory, the
Lord did. How? He said the Lord merciful and gracious.....In essence, He
communicated his nature (i.e. who he Is) to Moses.
2.
To worship God is to know who He is.
3.
A man's PRIDE shall bring him LOW, but HONOUR
shall uphold the HUMBLE in the SPIRIT. (Prov. 29:23).
4.
Optimists and pessimists are equally important.
o
They both can be used as thermostats for negativity
and positivity.
o
Optimists are more sensitive to positives than
negatives.
o
Pessimists are more sensitive to negatives than
positives.
o
These orientations do influence interactions.
5.

hands, it actually means put your enemies between your palms and jam them -

"The secret of health for both mind and body is
not to mourn for the past, worry about the future, or anticipate troubles, but
to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly." ~ Anon.

seed is not food. Never eat the seed with the food. When you are served food
always leave some.

the earth. Discipline it. Discipline is an active process. - Tayo Adeyemi

Behind every label is a problem. For example,

mattering enough. That is the primary problem the organization seeks to solve
within the context of the organization's peculiar vision and challenges.

world time seems to move faster. Just two scenes in a dream can consume,
say, 1 hour or more. Very strange.

The dream world is representative of the realm of the
spirit.
o
If the above statement is true, then it follows that
one sure way to accelerate the 'coming to pass' of happenings in our lives is
to engage that desired occurrence in prayer.
o
Prayer transports the desired occurrence into
the realm of the spirit for 'work' to be performed upon it for materialization
in the physical.
31.
Prophecies go ahead of us to wage warfares on our
behalf.
o
So put more prophecies in your mouth from the Word of
God.
32.
"The Just shall live by his faith"
(Hab. 2:4) implies that we experience life in accordance with what we have come
to believe.
o
Jesus reiterated this principle when he said, according
to your faith be it done unto you"
o
The question now is?:
·
What have I believed? They are shaping my life
·
Are my acquiring new beliefs?
·
Are these beliefs from the Word of God.
·
What are my beliefs about job, mandate etc.
§
Do you have the belief that you are not perhaps
deserving of a good job? This belief needs terminating.
§
Clearly spell out what you want. I want a job with the
WHO.`
