"Refuse to take directions from those who don't know your destination" Tuesday motivation by Jola Alamu

This piece was shared by Mama Jola Alamu, wife of pastor Dexter Akin Alamu of Empowerment House. If you are familiar with the television channel "Kingdom Africa" you should know them by now.

"So I was on my way to pick up our kids from their school this afternoon, as I turned into the major road that the school was on, everyone kept saying "no road", "turn back madam", some where telling me with a show of hand, others were actually slowing down their cars and shouting it to me.....so I got curious,  however, I didn't answer anyone of them but kept moving forward, until I was about 5km to the school, only for me to discover that there was a mini road work going on right in front of the school, and yes, there was no thorough fare to the adjouring road, but hey, I was going to the school and I could drive to the school but not further from the school. Now imagine if I had listened to all those people who at the beginning of the road told me to turn back 🤔, they didn't know where I was going so in actual fact they were in no position to determine whether I should keep driving or not. I accomplished my aim and got to my destination without any drama or stress.

#moraleofthestory *Refuse to take DIRECTIONS from those who don't know your DESTINATION. *Focus on your destination even if it seems you are alone.

*Be confident and secure in the assignment God has given you.

*Don't be intimidated by what everyone else is doing

*The fact that it's popular doesn't mean it's auspicious for you.

Uche Agu sends an appeal to Air France for his luggage

The newly wedded gospel singer doesn't seem happy with Air France at all. But what seems to be wrong with these Airlines. If it's not luggage matter it would be delayed or cancelation of flights. Air France, please send Uche Agu's luggage.

"@airfrance with all due respect, kindly send my luggage with all my personal belongings fully intact today ! Its been 9 days already. This treatment is unfair to any supporter of any airline what more for an Platinum Elite Member, my luggage is sitting there in Portharcourt since the 6th December. What stops an airline with so much resource to go an extra mile and deliver a lost, misplaced and disregared luggage of an Elite Platinum Member which is the highest  tier of any frequent flyer. I need to move my Airline Loyalty programme more to others since @airfrance have treated me so badly. I need my bag today urgently and $ 100,000 compesation right away. Enough of this bullying attitude towards those that support and make your airline what is it."

Steve Harris - From a school drop out to a sought-after Coach

"Not many people in the world today can boast of dropping out of university, and then going on to becoming successful in their field of endeavour, but here is a man who did not just drop of out of the university once, but twice.

That was not a deterrent to him, as he is now leading a successful life as a Management Consultant, and a Life Strategist.

Because his grades were not up to par he was “advised to withdraw” from the University of Benin in 2004.

He enrolled in Madonna University that same year, but left after 7 months because of the embarrassment. Wrong move you may say…. yes it was. Steve even agrees.

Steve came back home and was depending on handouts from his younger sister who was now working in one of the airlines in Nigeria. One day, the sister got fed and told him there was no more money for him.

He began working in Fela Durotoye’s firm, learning all he could, until his opportunity came; Durotoye had a training engagement in one of the banks, but he hadn’t completed the training with another company. He called a couple of associates but they were busy and could not make it for the training scheduled to start in less than 24 hours.

After much deliberation, Steve stood up and said he could do it. He had been taking notes from Durotoye’s sessions and practicing with his mirror for months. Here’s the opportunity, and he had to step up to the plate.

After a fountain of fear and a wind of pep talks, Steve was prepped to take on the role of training new recruits (graduates) of a bank. He went on to deliver an excellent speech and was greeted with a clap and a standing ovation. That was the end of being an office assistant. This was in 2006.

Today, Steve is the author of two books; “From College Dropout to Corporate Sellout”, and “From Friend to Fiancee”. He’s a highly sought after motivational speaker and turn-around expert who guarantees high performance for individuals and organisations in 90 days or less"

"God isn't looking for who to help him slander his children" Pita Sings writes an open advise to OAP Freeze

I must say guys are not taking it lightly with Freeze any more. Known for his regular critics and bashing of Pastors and Men of God on his social media pages. While some people have decided to let him be and express himself, some others feel they should speak out against him.
Pita Linus known as Pita Sings by his stage name has expressed dissatisfaction in Freezes critics as he writes him an open letter.

"I'm a Christian and I'm proud of it. I don't know why people do things they do but I sincerely can't be bothered about how people choose to live their lives but again there are things that are SACRED. 

Freeze please do all you do by all means recognising that it's your decision. The last I checked heaven isn't looking to employ new judges, God isn't looking for who to help Him slander His children. That's all on you, do not mistake your position as God's position... Let me tell you why I'm sure it's not the Gospel you're teaching.

1. I'm a beliver, so if you speak truth my spirit will leap and bear witness. (My spirit is sitting down staring at u and doing smh) 

2. What place does your message leave people? Anger, chaos, evil speech? Unbelievers use your message as a yardstick to mock our faith and Men of God.

3. What kind of people does your message produce? True Gospel produces and pursues goodness, knowledge, self-control, perseverance, Godliness, brotherly kindness and love. A counterfeit message is filled with arrogance and slander, despising authority and breeding chaos.

Is this God or a god speaking through you?

The bible explicitly tells us that wheat and tares grew together as such it's inevitable that there will be foxes in the kingdom of God. There will be false doctrines and false prophets, it has always been so from the time of JESUS. My worry for you Freeze is that you're doing exactly what u think you're not doing, becoming a pharisee.

This is what the bible says about how we (should) speak.

James 4:11-12 ESV 

Do not speak evil against one another, brothers. The one who speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge. There is only one lawgiver and judge, he who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor?

Titus 3:1-15 ESV

Remind them to be submissive to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready for every good work, to speak evil of no one, to avoid quarreling, to be gentle, and to show perfect courtesy toward all people. For we ourselves were once foolish

Evangelist Mike Bamiloye shares a very sincere quote about Believers and the Government.

The drama evangelist who is the President of the popular Mount Zion Ministries shared this simple truth that many believers sometimes ignore, backing it up with scriptures. I concur sir.

"Genesis 11:6 KJV

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.

John 17:21 KJV

That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. 

Remember Laff Doctor? See what is happening to his brand new car

Laff Doctor who won comedian Ali Baba's January 1st Spontaneity challenge dedicates his brand new car. He became the official owner of the car yesterday as Ali Baba himself presented him with the cars. You need to see what he captioned as he dedicates the car.

"My brand new Hyundai Xcent  is now born again!.. Somebody shout Halleluyahhhh!!!! #alibabaspontaneitywinner"

Lol. You go fear born again now. So cars now get born again too. 

Here is our Sunday reflection from the Rock Cathedral

"Never sit under a preacher or stand behind any man who has no vision. A man without vision cannot see and remains immovable. Don't get stuck behind a dumb thing.

You have to choose your friends carefully. Ladies. be careful do not follow a man that cannot see who is without a Word, no anointing. Choose your wife carefully such that even if she can't see make sure she is teachable. Let God's light bring understanding into your life."
