An Excellent Christian

The righteous is more excellent than his neighbour: but the way of the wicked seduceth them.
- Proverb 12:26

These days, there is this common trend among believers. We use God as an excuse for being inefficient, lazy and below excellence. The common phrase 'God ways are not like men's ways' so the way God see success is not the way men see it.

God is a God of excellence. Jesus said "let your Light so shine before men that they may see your good works" (Matthew 5:16). Not just works but good works. Question is are you good in what you do? Are you shinning in the works of your hands. God is not glorified in mediocrity. Our society will be so great believers are ready to be excellent in what they do.

When God was to build the temple, He choose the best. Highly skilled people. Greatness doesn't fall on you, you rise to greatness. You work your way into greatness. Stop been a prayer warrior that is not productive at work. If you are a believer and you are not resourceful or productive, then your belief is questionable.

Today, the secular folks are doing great and it saddens me to see  believers beefing them. God is a God of principles. If you don't work hard, you will suffer. Yes God is miracles working God, He breaks protocols for His children sake. Yet He never commanded us to be lazy. If God bless you with a car, you will need to work to buy fuel and maintain that car.

What so ever you do, where ever you are, stands for excellence. If an unbeliever will stand for excellence, God will bless Him by His principles. How much more His children.

Don't be a mediocre, Be outstanding, be excellent.

It's a blessed Tuesday for yo. Good Morning

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
