ATTITUDE SERIES 5

Good morning dearly beloved, we are almost coming to the end of the week... It's Thursday... Another opportunity to upgrade your attitude. Before I go on, there's no use learning more if you are not a good steward of what you have been given already.. I would encourage you to put to practice what you read and to know more, teach what you have been given and you will be amazed at how much more you know.

Today we will be looking at another key attitude.. One that gives you a brightened countenance in the face of oppositions..,the Joy attitude.

ATTITUDE OF JOY
"My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations. (James 1:2)".

This is called Vitamin J. You don't need any medication or herbs to suppress the way you feel... All you need is a daily dose of  vitamin J for the rest of your life. There's no end to the intake of this spiritual capsule.

Why Joy?  First of all, I will tell you do you know why you have challenges? Asides that they are stepping grounds for your promotion, also God wants to glorify Himself in that your situation.

Next what you must know is that joy and happiness are different. Happiness is more or less based on happenings... You are happy when you eat a good meal, or buy a new house or a new car or a new phone. That's to say things outside affects your happiness. But Joy on the contrary has an inner climate which influences the outside, so that the challenges outside don't influence your state of mind.

You just have to make the daily choice of being joyful come what may.  It's called a vitamin cos when you are joyful it impacts your spirit,soul and body... People can't explain the reason why you smile in the face of challenges because it is a spiritual commodity.

You owe yourself the right to be joyful all the time. Be a happier you, a smiling you, a victorious you by being joyful.
The Bible says with joy shall ye draw waters out of the well of salvation. Wells of salvation refers to all the blessings we are entitled to as children of God and they include health, peace, prosperity, favour, increase, success, abundance, etc. So it means you can't access these blessings by crying or wearing a long look... So why stress yourself and disfigure your pretty face by being sad all the time. It's not like God doesn't recognize tears... He does only when they are productive like crying for souls to be saved in prayers. That's a better cry.

When you are joyful, you are putting your faith to work because you are doing the word, and this is in connection to our attitude series 3 on faith attitude.

So in essence, the way forward is Joy. So choose Joy today and access that job, success, marriage, finance, etc. Life is easy if you follow God's smart way.  Stay connected with me.. We are soaring together. Leave your comments below and be a great blessing to others by sharing.

Love You always.

EXCELLENCE

" Then this Daniel was preferred above the presidents and princes, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm".(Daniel 6:3) Excellence in simple terms is surpassing laid down standards...going above the ordinary...it is doing the right thing the right way,the first time. As a child of God..the question shouldn't be if you can be excellent in everything about you...because when you got born again you received automatically the Holy Spirit who is the Spirit of excellence. So you have what and all it takes to be excellent. Personally I love to be practical and bring down things to base level. It scratches me eyes and gets me thinking when I see people type or write and send their works without going through them..leaving the plenty grammatical blunders obviously staring at you. Now excellence is after you write, or do anything be patient enough to pause and go through your work,erase any mistakes, proof read them a...

THE VALUE FOR TIME

Image
" See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time because the days are evil.(Ephesians 5:15-16)". Time is one of the most valuable resources given to us and you get what you make out of it. Time is a gift given to us by God Almighty... and as such it ought to be treasured. Just like every resource we have, you are going to be responsible and accountable for the resources given to you. In essence you are going to account for this time, and what will be in your time-account? Time they say is money... If you can equate your time spent to money received from time then you will know your value for time based on how much you make.  Just like some people don't know the value for money and think it should be spent and wasted, same way most people don't know the value for time and thus waste time and spend it on unproductive things. To make the use of your time, you have to be investment-conscious. How do you start your day? How yo...

DETERMINATION

Good evening dearie...Hope you have been awesome.. Yeah today's post is coming now but it's better late than never. I'm committed to helping you discover yourself on a daily basis, hence the push to still put something down today. Today we will be summarizing all we have been saying this week so far in just one word: Determination. What is determination? It is a positive emotional feeling that involves persevering towards a difficult goal in spite of the obstacles. It occurs prior to goal attainment and serves to motivate one's behavior towards achievement of that goal. Let me paint the picture clearer this way?  Is the task before you difficult? Obviously yes. But can you quit or give up? The answer is NO and that's in simple terms DETERMINATION. So it's all about keep pushing, keep putting efforts until you get the goal in the midst of weakness, tiredness, 'no head way';  cos something really it's happening.... So don't give up on thos...
