Happy New Year!!!


Happy New Year!!!

Congratulations to you, you made it into the year 2020. Welcome into the new year. Be happy because year 2020 is going to be better than the past year 2019.

The year has just started and you have the opportunity now to design it the way you want it to go. Some things you planned doing but couldn't do, you have the chance to make it happen this year. There are so many lessons you would have learnt last year, apply those lessons learnt in the year 2020.

Believe it or not, sooner than you think, we would be celebrating Christmas by December 25 and then preparing for the year 2021. So whatever you planned to do, start NOW. Do not procrastinate, do not waste time, do not delay. Don't wait to start big. Start now with whatever you have or wherever you are.

Year 2020 is the start of a new decade as well, so start working even for the future. start that savings now, make that investment now not just for the short term but for the long term as well.

I'm not trying to scare you but there would be some obstacles, some challenges in the year 2020 but those challenges ain't there to scare us. Not at all, therein those challenges, difficulties, obstacles lies the opportunity you have been waiting for.

When you come across a problem this year, be intentional in solving that problem. Problems are meant to be solved and not to dodge from.

Do away with people that are not of value in your life. Some folks would have gone far in life but due to the people in their lives, they lag behind. Be purpose about the friendships, relationships you keep in the year 2020. The people in your life should add value to you as you add to them.

Be Kind to people around you. Kindness takes nothing away from you. Even when you are down, be kind to people. Help Those you can help. Never be afraid to say No. You can not help everybody but you can help someone.

Align with those and things that matter. Who and what you align yourself with will definitely have an effect (positive or negative) on you.

Be Open to constructive criticism, Don't let pride stopped you from taking correction. You do not know it all and you will make mistakes, be open to corrections, suggestions, opinions and advice. Of course you do not take ALL advice.

In everything you do, Involve God. We do not know the future but God knows everything including the future, why don't you involve Him in all you do and let Him guide & direct you. Maybe you do not believe in God, then  you need to start believing.

  You have nothing to lose in believing in God and you have everything to gain in believing in Him.

Be Yourself, Run your race, don't put yourself under pressure.

Lastly, enjoy the year 2020, even when difficulties comes, rejoice and enjoy. We shouldn't allow situations and circumstances to dictate when to be happy to us. You should choose and decide to be happy, to be joyous. Laugh spontaneously, dance anyhow and play joyfully.

This year will be a great one for you, every of your targets this year, you will surpassed them. You will have more than enough in the year 2020, This year is the start of an everlasting good news in your life and household. The year is blessed for your sake. You will enjoy this year and be fortunate in it.

Happy New 2020 and do have a wonderful year.



Sincerely,
Thriving Words

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
