Riches Without Sorrow

The blessing of the LORD, it make rich, and He added no sorrow with it. - Proverb 10:22

Currently, in Nigeria there are many 'quick-fix' schemes, especially the ponzi types. And due to the economics situation, the schemes are spreading like wildfire.
Many people want to be rich in life, and they go to extreme length to achieve it. During this season of the year; kidnapping, ritualistic killings and robberies are always on the high side.

But we forget that there is nothing the devil will give you that he wouldn't add sorrow to. Maybe you think the devil will give you a child, help your business, give you money, he will but you will regret you ever collected anything from the devil.

Only God can make you rich and add no sorrow. Yes the rich also cry because some got their ill-gotten wealth from the devil.
Do you falsified figures to get rich, maybe you build your house from fraudulent money. Perhaps, you are doing a illegal business. Beware because all these things have dire consequences.

God is a God of step by step. Work hard and let God prosper the works of your hands. Enjoy the reward of your sweats, don't be greedy and don't aim to get rich over-night. I have seen folks who play this football gambling popularly known as 'sure bet'. A 20 years old Youth want to win millions of naira with just a token of money as little as 100naira. *smh*

What profit a man/woman if he/she has the money in this world but loses his/her soul.

It's another day, it's Monday. Quit looking for easy money, quick-fix schemes and extremely high interest rate business. Be diligent in what you do. There is no short-cut to Success and wealth except you want the one that has sorrow. I bet you don't...

Good Morning to you and do enjoy your day with the little you have. Contentment is a key to a successful life.

Made a Way: The Story Behind The Song

Made a way is a song written and sang by award winning artist Travis Greene in the year 2015. Many people knows the song but few actually know the story behind the song. The song was actually borne out of a personal testimony of Travis Greene. According to the artist, 'Made a Way' was written during an impossible situation. His pregnant wife’s water broke at 21 weeks, when pregnancy normally takes between 37-42 weeks. The doctors said the possibility of the baby’s survival is slim to none, and it was during this period when his wife was on bed rest for two months that he wrote the song. There was nothing else for them to hold on to but faith, and the good news is that as slim as the chance was, it didn’t break because faith held it together and today their baby boy is alive.  When Jesus was on His way to heal Jairus’s daughter and news came that things had gone from bad to worse, that the girl was dead. Jesus overheard and said, "Don't be upset. Just trust me

Lessons From the Sons of Sceva

....the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye? - Acts 19:15 One funny incident that I read in the  Bible is about the seven sons of Sceva that attempted to use the Name of Jesus to cast out demons. The demons replied them that He knows Jesus and Paul, but who are they? They were given the beating of their life. (Acts 19:11-16) Were they wrong in using the Name of Jesus? No. But truth is they don't know nor understand that Name. They only want to use it selfishly just to get the results that Paul was getting. They thought it was a rocket science. Many at times we believers are like that; We live in sin , we disobey God and when we need something, we want to perform miracles, do signs and wonders in the Name of Jesus which we really belittle or don't value.  Someone once said during a plane turbulence, he saw unbelievers even shouting the name of Jesus. No wonder some folks suffered embarrassment like the sons of Sceva.  When
