Good day everyone. Happy new year in advance! We thank God for his mercy throughout this year. In the last post, I emphasized on definition 4, but today I will talk on definition 3. Definition 3 states that Hand is a person's power or control. In the last week, I asked you what your hands were doing and if it was affecting lives positively. Today I will be talking about the power or control your hand carries. What I want us to understand now is that power has levels so does control. The level of power you have determines the amount of control you have. And if you have the power are you going to use it in a positive manner? Now linking 'What are in your hands (PART 1) and this topic together. Until when you have played an active role on the face of the earth, until when you have started making preparations towards your fu...

Going by this popular saying, "The way you dress is the way you'd be addressed". Disregarding the truth behind this saying is like throwing a precious jewel into the ocean. Girls dressed almost unclad and boys wearing their trousers below the waist has so become prevalent to the extent it has almost a norm. If you want to be addressed well or to be seen as someone who's worthy of respect, your dressing really matters. Have you ever seen a male banker with his trousers below his waist or a female lawyer with a bare cleavage in the court room. The reason is not far fetched. For the sake of morality, what belongs to the private should be kept private. Have you not asked why popular divas who promote nudity and improper dressing through music, attend special functions with royalty in proper dressing. This tells me they know what is right but on...
In my previous post, I spoke on ways to spend your time wisely. Today, I'll talk about doing the right thing at the right time. I'm going to use this medium to relate to the youths of these days.

Even the preachers started early: Bishop T.D Jakes preached his first serm...
