Many of the people God used in Scripture looked like losers before they looked like winners. After the disciples fished all night and caught nothing, Jesus told them, ‘… Do not be afraid. From now on you will catch men’ (Luke 5:10 NKJV). They did, and they ended up: a) building a church that’s still thriving two thousand years later; b) writing history’s greatest books; c) having our sons named after them. Does that mean you can just dream a dream and God will fulfil it? No. Paul says, ‘… You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore, honor God…’ (1 Corinthians 6:19-20 NIV).

Men....do you have a plan for your business? Tell your wife, be honest. If you lock her out of your plan, she will become malfunction.

Most people's car last longer than their marriage. WHY? For instance in Germany, the government made it as a law that before you are qualified to drive a car, you will go to a driving school, learn the theory and practical before getting a license to drive. The same is applicable to your car, it must go to service and maintenance every two years if it is a new one to check if the car is still roadworthy. If your car is above five years old then it must go to service every year. So this makes the car last longer. For you to get a driving license in Germany it takes months but for you to take a marriage certificate in Germany it doesn't take two hours. Once you go on the view, they give you license which means that they are more concerned about your car on their street than they are about your life in their communities. A lot of people doesn't go to any driving lessons on marriages. So they end up knowing how to drive a car but not learning how to live with someone.

My dear friend, a good attitude will determine your altitude. When you look at your life, career, job or family life, what do you say? Do you praise God? Do you blame the devil? A good attitude towards God makes Him move on your behalf. Just sit down and say, Today God, it is well with my soul, I am thankful I had a peaceful sleep, I am thankful I am alive with possibilities, I am thankful I have a roof over me, I am thankful I have a job, I am thankful that I have Family and Friends. Above all, I am thankful that I have the Lord Jesus Christ on my side. Be blessed and don't be envious or shocked when others are prospering because you don't know what they have been through to get there (test, trials and tribulation), so thank God for what you have. "Little is much when God is in it. It Is Well With My Soul! Touch someone’s life with this message. If God be for us, who can be against us?

No matter how holy you are, holiness does not take Satan to hell, it just makes you a better person. Holiness makes you an instrument in the hand of God, but your righteousness does not kill the devil.

Only Agape love makes permanent relationship possible. Without agape every other relationship will be temporary. You cannot experience God's promise of marriage which is permanent; until death do us part without God's material which is agape love, everything else will fail you.

Only in Christianity that people that fall remain on the ground. When boxers are knocked down they refuse to remain on the ground or to accept a knock-out. Even when they are bleeding with swollen faces, they still get up to fight but in Christianity even a push, not even a blow, Boxers gets up, wrestlers jumps up, Christians lie down. Do you know why? They do not fight a good fight, they expect to lose before they enter the ring. Every good fighter is an enduring person, they do exercise and training, they learn the act of endurance. You can't be a good Christian without an amour which is the word of God.
