Faith-less

Humans like to claim sole credit for their achievements; many times you see phrases like 'he is a self-made millionaire' , 'she built this business all by herself'. We don't really like to attribute our success or accomplishments to someone else. 

Same thing with the subject of influence; we almost always want to claim original knowledge or thought and to shove aside any idea that what we claim to know and believe is in fact a result of an external influence. 

We are all products of one influence or the other. You may claim to not believe in God and that you are in fact not a religious person; the fact remains that believing God doesn't exist, is a religion itself because you believe something and you are ready to prove that what you believe is true. You are influenced by someone or something anti-God; trust me you are not acting on your own. You have to know this!

God does exist and if you want proof, just look around. Look at the trees, look at the birds, the oceans, the sun, the moon and stars, look at how babies grow, look at yourself. Do you really think you just came to existence, bam! Just like that? There has to be an intelligent mind behind creation. God is that intelligent designer and he seeks a vital relationship with you; he wants you to be fully aware of him so much so that he was willing to become a human at a particular point in history. Jesus is the very God becoming a man so that every human can know and be fully aware of God. Perfect and flawless. The supreme one! 

Blessings to you!

WHAT DOES MATTHEW.11:11 REALLY MEAN?

" Verily I say unto you, among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the Kingdom of heaven is greater than he" The very words of Jesus in the book of Matthew chapter 11 verse 11. Growing up in an environment where Christian maturity was subtly related to how much material wealth you are able to accumulate, scriptures like the above were veiled from my understanding. The same is the case for many believers who knowingly or unknowingly have supposed that gain is godliness. (1 Timothy. 6:5). In the above text Jesus was talking to a large number of people about John the Baptist (Matthew.11:7   "as they departed, Jesus began to say unto the multitudes concerning John..." )  and He reveals some things about the person and ministry of John the Baptist that without careful reading you might veer off His emphasis. It would interest you to know that in explaining the person and ministry of

Deal or no-deal

In my short experience in Nigeria's real estate market I have observed that concluding deals requires something 'less' than the good certifcate, excellent resume' and the likes. Like I have always said, money will always exchange for value, not just that, trust also. Any prospective client that perceives value and trust will be ready to give you his/her money. So how do you make someone who has a 'deep-pocket' patronize a real estate product you are marketing? How do you make that rich guy perceive value and trust? TRUTHFUL AND CONVINCING WORDS. That's it! Words that are convincing, truthful and rightly communicated can influence the outcome of any deal, big time. A client may not know the value of a property until you explain, make him/her see things he couldn't see - the location, similar properties in the area that are more expensive, etc. Make sure you don't tell them only the good part, mix it up so that while presenting value, you bu

Commitment

One way or the other, you must have heard an accomplished entrepreneur or business owner, a top management official, or a celebrated figure emphasize on commitment to a given goal as a vital ingredient of their success. Truth be told, it is easier said than done. But, the fact remains that your success is hinged on this one thing- commitment. Look at Jesus' response to a fellow who wanted to be part of His ministry but was a bit distracted with other things. Luke.9:62 And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God. To be successful in the things of God requires commitment, it demands that you consistently do certain things. This kind of approach will always produce results no matter how long it might take. It starts from little things. It doesn't matter what kind of business or job you do, this singular factor will always make you stand out. This will always pay off no matter what you're i
