THE REASON FOR THE SEASON.

The death and resurrection of Christ is the hallmark of christianity.It's a pity that alot of people haven't come to embrace Christ as their lord and savior.It's also unfortunate that some christians and churches have a myopic view of the easter,to me according to revelational knowledge,from the period we call lent should be a time of edification and evangelism with the word of God.The easter period is not a time of crying,mourning or been sober,rather it's a time of joyful celebration because had Christ not risen our hope and faith would have been smeared on the mud.That Christ arose should be a thing of celebration for all true christians.On this sweet easter sunday,the 4th day of april 2010 I attended the easter sunday church service at the Redemption Life Fellowship international church and the bishop Jude Chineme gave a sermon tagged NO CRUCIFICATION,NO RESURRECTION.He taught us that the moment you accept Christ your crucification start manifesting as challenges,but God will see you through because one with Him is majority.Cry for yourself he who is not fulfilling his God-given purpose.Christ fulfilled his purpose and today he is our hero and savior and he is at the right hand of God.If you truly understand the reason for the season then you should be celebrating the risen Christ and not sobering or just remembering.Know that without Christ you are nothing,with him you are something.Christ in us is the hope of glory.HAPPY EASTER TO YOU.

TALENT IS NOT ENOUGH

Saying that talent is everything or enough is fallacy. When is talent enough?Talent is only a raw material,a starting point.As only water cannot make soup so,can only talent not make you a success. The misconception in our society today is the idea that when a person achieves success people think or believe that only talent brought brought such a person to that height or state of success. Talent is gift,ability or potential which is deposited inside us by the creator.No one man can achieve success alone.Do you think the man you see on the tv screen is there by his own power?No,there are people who are working in the background for the success of what the man on tv is doing.The concept of a self-made man is untrue.What of the source that gave him or her the talent Talent is dormant,raw,it's proper utilization needs mining,purification and harnessing.Whether you are a writer,singer,banker,trader,doctor,lawyer,public speaker,pastor,student,e.t.c,for you to achieve success with your talent,you need to avail yourself of some opportunities which can and will better your talent.Some of them are: 1)PRACTICE:-Practice sharpens your talen.People don't reach the fullness of their talent unless they practice to there. 2)BELIEF:Belief lifts your talent,it's a guarantee.The first and greatest obstacle to success is belief in yourself.Lack of belief can act as a ceiling on talent.Your talent or potential is a picture of what you can become.Belief helps you visionize your future and reach for it. 3)ATTITUDE:Your attitude has an impact on your talent and how you utilize it.Attitude is everything.Your attitude not your aptitude determines your altitude.You need a positive attitude to make it in life.Negative attitude stagnates and draws you back from success.Your attitude is your altitude. 4)POWER OF MASTERMIND ALLIANCE:This is one of the greatest venues that launches you fast to success.Mastermind alliance is established when you relate or teamwork with people with ability or talent that will better yours.The goodness of this group or alliance is that it benefits and brings success to all.Teamwork multiplies your talent,relationships strengthens your talent. 5)TEACHABILITY:I.T.k.=I TOO KNOW,is a devil which has demonized some people,they can't cool down to learn from others,or their own experiences.Infact,there are people who are incorrigible though they are talented they can't achieve success because only a tree can never make a forest.I have something to learn from anyone i meet everyday.If you think you know it all then you don't know anything.Mentoring is good and boosts your talent. Other virtues like courage,character,responsibility,initiative,perseverance,passion,focus,preparation,teamwork,vision,hardwork,relationship,leadership,faith,personal development,excellence,hope,e.t.c,when combined with your talent makes you a talent-plus person,lifts you from mediocrity to meteority,pushes you from obscurity to fame.Discover the choices that will take beyond your talent.Keep following this blog for life enriching secrets.Am on Facebook as Ifeanyi E.

Misplaced priorities

In our society today,a lot of fundamental reasons,truths and principles have been relegated to the background.And this is causing havoc to mankind and his enviroment. In the marriage institution,God the founder made it to be grounded by love.people now go into this union for money,fame,beauty,children,age and material things instead of true love.Anything that's not rooted in godliness do not last. Some people open church,ministry,fellowship and outreach only to use the name of God in robbing innocent members.This is man's inhumanity to man. What about those women into the business of getting pregnant,giving birth and selling the baby for money. These are some of the reasons why marital infidelity,divorce,juvenile deliquency,hardship e.t.c,are increasing.God forgive and save humanity. Get ready for my next blog!
