7 Steps To Become Wise!

-

Wisdom does not come by chance, but by conscious effort. My primary assignment is to show you how you can become wise.

1. TALK, OBSERVE AND INTERACT WITH THE WISE: For you to become wise, you must talk, observe and interact with the wise. You don't expect to become wise by associate with fools. As iron sharpens iron, so does a man sharpen the countenance of his friend. When you walk, talk and interact with the wise, you will eventually become wise.

2. LISTENING TO PARENTS AND ELDERLY ONES: Listening to parents and elderly people can really make one wise. This is because they have gone through so many things in life. They have made mistakes and learned so much from their mistakes.

3. READING GOOD BOOKS: A lot of people find it difficult to read books. But the truth is that a lot of people share their experiences, discoveries and wisdom through books. So if you want to get wisdom, read good books.

4. LISTENING TO GOOD COUNSELLORS: When you listen to good counsel, you will get wisdom. There are counsels but there are good counsels. There are times when we get stocked and need some good advice, so that we can make good decisions. It takes a wise person to give us good counsel.

5. LEARNING FROM PAST EXPERIENCE: A lot of people make the same mistake over and over again because they refuse to learn from their past mistakes. When we make mistakes and learn from them, we will definitely become wise. We will not make the same mistake again.

6. STUDYING AND SEEKING WISDOM AT EVERY GIVEN OPPORTUNITY: Studying and seeking wisdom at every given opportunity can make you wise. When you study and take advantage of every given opportunity to learn, you will definitely find wisdom.

7. HAVING A RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD AND READING THE BIBLE: When you have a personal relationship with the Almighty God and you read the bible, you will become wise. There are so much words of wisdom in the bible. The bible says, the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom. When we reverence God we will get wisdom .You can also ask God to give you wisdom. True wisdom comes from God. And we can get it if we ask Him for it.
If you follow the above steps, you will definitely become wise

From Hopelessness To Testimonies

Life is full of so many hopeless conditions. There are lots of people who are today in seemly hopeless situations. Hopelessness in getting married. hopelessness in getting a job. Hopelessness in completing a project. Hopelessness in a relationship. Hopelessness all around.  There are some problems in life that looks as if you are passing through fire. Sometimes you are even afraid that you might not come out of them.  Don't contemplate suicide. Don't throw in the towel. I've got good news for you. No matter the challenge you are facing, there is still hope!  My wife shared a story of a lady in her village, who had a seemingly hopeless situation. As a child she took ill and her parents took her to a native doctor who gave her some herbs. Unfortunately, the herbs destroyed her organs. She was taken to the hospital. After examining her, the doctor discovered that her womb was badly affected and the only way to save her life was to remove her womb. When she grew up, she...

Down But Not Out!

Once in a while, we all get knocked down in one area of our life or the other. Our struggle in life is such that some times we win, while other times we lose. There are times we are down in our health, finance, spirituality, job, marriage, family, emotion, relationships, business, e.t.c. It is not our being knocked down that is really the problem but our attitude when we are down.

It does not mean that you are a failure. It is not the end of the road. It only means that you are not perfect. It only means that you are not there yet. The devil is a liar!

I don't know the area of your life where you've been knocked down. It might be in y...

The Power Of Love

For any family to stick together, love is a very important ingredient. Love is what holds the family together. In times of trouble and difficulty, love prevails.  In any family where there is love; peace, harmony and happiness is usually enjoyed. Some people think that money can bring happiness in a home. In as much as money is very important, it can't buy happiness. It can buy beautiful houses but not a happy home. It can buy food but not appetite. It can buy good cars but not a happy home. Money can buy latest electronic gadgets but not a happy home. I've seen real wealthy families get divorced. Money wasn't the issue there. They were not happy in the marriage so they thought; the best bet is to break up. Some years ago, I heard about a wealthy man whose wife slept with their gardener. Such things happen every day all around the world. Many marriages today are ending up in divorce and children are running away from home mainly because they are not happy at ho...
