YOU HAVE AN ACRE OF DIAMOND IN YOU

I am glad to tell you this month that you are an acre of diamond. That is you are born rich. Poverty is not your destiny. It is not the plan of God for your life. It is God that said that before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee (Jer. 1:5). God knew you and He knew that you’re not made to suffer here on earth. He knew that what he had put in you won’t make you to be poor on earth. He knew that you are an acre of diamond and a mine of gold. He knew that you are a well of crude oil. He knew that, according to what he had placed in you, you’re set apart for greatness and glory. The bible says: “this people have I formed for myself, they shall show forth my praise” (Isa. 43:21).
Beloved, that is the real plan of God for your life. He wants your life to show forth his praise .He wants people to celebrate Him through you. He has put something great in you that will make people to praise him through you. And when you discover it, you have discovered your source of wealth. There is no wealth outside there but inside of you. What will make you rich is inside of you. Your riches on earth are attached to what God has placed in you at creation. God has given you one or more talents to make it in life. Your prosperity or riches on earth is attached to your talent or potential. You are not completely useless. The bible says:” for the kingdom of heaven is as a man traveling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods. And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one, to every man according to his several ability and straight way took his journey” (Matt. 26:14-15).
Wow! You are too loaded to suffer on earth. God gave to every man talent or potential to trade with on earth. It is now left for you to use it or not. Do you know that if you will admire and develop that your talent or gift, you will be a celebrity soonest. Men and women that the world celebrates today are people who discovered their talent, admired it, developed it and turned it to a profession.
They capitalized on their strength, gift or skill and suddenly they emerged a celebrity. Millions began to admire them and people even want to have their portraits in their homes. It is not because they are lucky, it is only because they knew their strength, gift or skill and capitalized on them.
There is no God-made poor man anywhere, every poor man made himself poor. There is no born failure anywhere; every failure made himself a failure. There is no useless man anywhere, every useless man made himself useless. There is no lucky man anywhere, every lucky man made himself lucky. There is no disadvantaged man on earth, every disadvantaged man thinks he is disadvantaged and failed to make use of opportunities around him. Every man is equipped and empowered by his Maker (God) to succeed and prosper on earth.
You have fasted and prayed enough, it is time to look inside and discover the acre of diamond and a well of crude oil in you. You have looked around enough for success and prosperity; it is time to explore the well of wealth in you. You can’t be suffering on earth when you have riches in you. It is time to advertise your talent, skill or strength. You are not empty. You are not useless. You seem empty and useless because you think you are empty and useless. God is saying to you now that you are an acre of diamond. He is saying that you are not empty and useless; there is a well of wealth inside you.
You have run around enough for riches, it is time to concentrate on the well of wealth in you. How you look doesn’t matter, there is greatness and beauty in you. Don’t focus on your weaknesses and disadvantages but rather focus on your strength and wait patiently like a farmer for harvest. Dare to dig the well of wealth in you, don’t die a beggar, a disgrace and a spectator. You’re made to be an asset, don’t die as a liability. You have been empowered to succeed by your Maker stop blaming people, government and events.

God has a plan for your life

I am glad to tell you  that your life and future were concluded before you were formed and put in your mother’s womb. Everything about you was settled before you were born to this world. God had really concluded about journey on earth before you came to this world. That is why I used to say that you are not a mistake and an accident on earth. No matter how you came and where you were born, your glorious future was settled in heaven before you’re allowed to come into the world. It is written: “Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations” (Jer.1:5)
Friend, God has a good plan for your life. According to the above Bible passage God has written a script for your life and he has sent you to the earth to act it out. In other words, you are God’s actor or actress on earth. He has carefully chosen a role or part for you in His plan for the world.
That is, He has an agenda and a purpose for creating you, you can’t be Mr. Nobody. You are God’s written script; He can’t allow you to fail if you will accept the role He has chosen for you. Your role on earth was fixed, settled and concluded before you were born. You are not in the world to while away your time. You are not here to beget sons and daughters, and die. You are not in the world to be a spectator. You’re made to be an asset to man and God, don’t die as a liability. God has put some treasures in you that this generation needs, dare to ask Him to show you.
Beloved, God asked me to tell you that he has written a book concerning you in heaven that contains the details of your assignment on earth. He asked me to tell you that if you are willing and obedient, He will show it to you. He will empower and sponsor you lavishly to carry out His plan for your life. He asked me to tell you that you are so precious and honorable in His eyes that He gave up His only Son Jesus to suffer and die in your place. He asked me to tell you that He did this to tell and show you that you are not worthless and useless before Him and to His plan.
Moreover He asked me to tell you that the world might have written you off and concluded that you are useless but He your Maker can fix the broken pieces of your life and recreates it to be what he had planned it to be. He asked me to tell you that everything depends on you. He asked me to tell you that if you will turn up today before Him, He will not turn you down. He asked me to tell you that if you are ready today He will step into your life and situation and turn it around for His glory. He asked me to tell you that He loves and cherishes you because you are His plan to wipe away tears from the faces of millions. He asked me to tell you that if only and if you will dare dream His dreams and align your dreams with His plan and purpose for your life, He will work in and with you and see to it that you are a name, a glory and a praise on earth.
Friend, it is crystal clear that God has a better plan for your life and that this plan was settled and concluded before you were ever born. All what you need to change your life now is to tell Him ‘this is me, use me as you want’. God is desperately waiting for your response today for He wants to celebrate you before His angels. No matter how cruel and bad you may think that you are, God loves you and wants you. He really wants you because He doesn’t want you to be a waste. You may be dirty but He will clean you up and give you a new robe of beauty and glory. He is not angry with you. He can put the broken pieces of your life together again and make it glorious. Don’t conclude with the prophecy of men about you. They are not your Maker. They are blind. They don’t know anything about who you are inside. If you want to give your life to God through our Lord Jesus Christ pray this prayer: Heavenly Father, I come to you in the name of Jesus Christ. I recognize myself today as a sinner that needs your mercy, I now ask that you forgive me all my sins and wash me clean in the blood of Jesus Christ. I take you at your word. I confess that Jesus is Lord and I believe in my heart that you raised him from the dead. Thank you for coming into my heart, for giving me your Holy spirit as you have promised, and for being LORD over my life. Amen.

Destiny Empowerment: You are What You Think

You are What You Think

Your heart is the seat of your life. It is the control centre of your life because it gives birth to your world or future. It is the bakery of your life. It is the processing unit of your life. That is why somebody said that your mind is the battlefield of your life. Once your heart is polluted, your life is polluted. The Bible says; “keep thy heart with all diligence, for out of it are the issues of life” (Prov. 4:23).
God admonished us in this scripture to set guard over our heart diligently because it is the spring of life. It is the well of life. We become what we draw from it. In essence, God is saying that you have got to watch your heart and use its power to change the course of your life. why? It is because whatsoever you will become in life starts with a thought which comes from your heart. Your thoughts make you or mar you.
Show me a failure I will show you a man that has failed in his thinking life. Once your thought is distorted, your life is distorted. successful and exciting thoughts produce successful and exciting life. Meager and unhappy thoughts produce meager and unhappy life. It is your thoughts or what you are thinking constantly about yourself, your life, future, career or business that will eventually become your possession.
The reason is because your thoughts determine your attitude and action which eventually become your character which determines whether you will be a success or a failure. Friend, you are unlimited. You can be what and who you want to be if you will make use of your power of imagination. Your life, career, business and marriage can change right now if you will use the gift of God in you. No devil or witchcraft can stop you. The bible says: “And the Lord said, behold, the people is one and they have all one language; and this they begin to do and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do”. (Gen. 11:6).
Wow! God said that now nothing would be restrained from them which they had imagined to do. That is no demon or man can stop you if you will harness your power of imagination or thought and focus it on what you want. Your imagination or thought is one of the powers of possibility that God has put in you at creation. Dare to use it. Dare to dream big and go for it. Nothing can stop you if you will make it(your good thoughts) stronger everyday. If you don’t allow another thought to overrule your thought for success and prosperity, you will become successful and prosperous. The only thing that the enemy does is to confuse or distract you in your mind. And once you are distracted, you are defeated. The enemy doesn’t need to fight you anyway; he just needs to distract you. And when he succeeds in distracting you, your dreams (good thoughts) become nothing. That is why the bible says: “Casting down imaginations and every high thing that exalts it itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ” (2 Cor.10:5).
This is your role in the school of success. You are to cast down every imagination or thought of failure, poverty, divorce and hopelessness, and bring them into captivity to the obedience of Christ. God won’t do that for you, it is you that will decide what you want around you. No matter how hard you pray, you will eventually become what you constantly think or imagine unless you pray to change your mind which is the seat of your thought and imagination.
If you want your life to change starts with a change of thoughts. And once there is a change of thoughts, your life will begin to change for good. For as a man thinks in his heart so he is. That is a spiritual law, and God does not go against his law no matter who is involved. Focus on the things you want and pray, and everything about you will change forever.

Salary can't make You a Millionaire


I am bold to tell you  that salary is an embargo on your financial destiny. It is an embargo because it brings limitation upon your destiny and finance. It sets a limit to your financial exploits. It robs you of your blessings since it has been defined by your employer. It sets a spiritual, mental and physical boundary to your financial breakthrough and prosperity.
Moreover it sets a chain through which the evil one can control your finances. It is a torment because it makes you live in fear of losing your financial source which is your job. It makes you a slave to your employer or boss especially in one man’s business or civil service. It makes your job your god. That is why when some people lose their jobs, they try to commit suicide.
Salary creates a mental and spiritual block to financial blessings. It limits salary earner’s expectation and faith to salary. It conditions their minds to their employers and not to God. It creates kind of mind set that salary earners can’t do anything except they borrow, embezzle, collect bribe or get promotion. They live and work for salary.
Furthermore all their financial plans are based on salary. They can’t see and think beyond salary and as a result, mentally they become slaves to monthly salary. If in need, salary earners can only think of loan. And this is the reason why many civil servants and private workers cannot live beyond their salaries except they take bribe, or steal government or their company’s money. They have to do this because they are fighting to come out of the bondage, limitation and curse of salary. They recognize the fact that salary is an embargo or a limitation to their financial destiny and goal.
The truth is that no amount of money you receive as a salary that will be enough to meet all your needs. It will not be enough because consciously or unconsciously salary earners spend half of their salaries before they collect it. Hence, when they receive it, the evil cycles of financial lack continues.
One thing God wants you to know is that salary is a subtle method of the enemy to cage you financially and you have to come out of it. You have to consciously and deliberately set yourself free from this bondage and embargo. You have to wage war against it and liberate yourself from this cage. I have never seen a salary earner that has become a multimillionaire or a billionaire. If he or she is a millionaire, watch them closely it is either they are into a business or stealing where he works.
As a child of God, you have to know that salary is a limitation to your financial breakthrough and prosperity. It is an obstacle to your financial blessings especially if you are a tither. I know that many tithers would have queried God why they are not experiencing the blessings of tithers according to God’s word. It is written: “bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive.” (Mal.3:10)
The truth is that God wants to bless you back according to His word but the fact is that there is nothing He wants to put the blessings upon. Even if He wants to bless you He can only bless your employer so that you can receive salary regularly.
Wake up! It is high time you created a means for your financial breakthrough. Your tithes of many years and prayers for financial breakthrough have reached the throne of Grace and the heavens want to pour out overflowing blessings on you. And you have to create a room for it by starting a business.
You can’t be a tither and continue to wallow in poverty. Your salary mentality must die so that God can give you ideas that will bring you financial breakthrough. Satan has robbed you enough of your blessings via salary mentality. Now is the time to find your way out of the cage of salary.
I’m not asking you to quit your job but with your salary create another job or business for yourself. In other words, start your own business or small scale industry while you are still earning your salary monthly. God wants to bless you. He wants to make you a financial blessing to others. You have prayed enough for promotion. It is high time you promoted yourself now by starting a business. Salary is an embargo to your financial destiny; break it off your neck!
