My Kinda Weekend!

-
Happy new week folks, I hope the weekend was great? These past few days have been transforming and I have a strong conviction that all my limitations have been wrecked - I couldn't have sat at the feet of a pulpited divine, veteran minister and renowned preacher, Bishop T. D Jakes and remain the same. The weekend was also topped with 'party rice' and 'swallow' my first here in Enugu and in a while since I left Lagos last year and then Chelsea beat Everton with Morata on the score sheet...wooh! Plus Floyd Mayweather beat McGregor....hehehe #Eyanmayweather. It was my kinda weekend 😍.




I had an urge to share some of the points I scribbled during the finale of the Spirit Life Conference themed EMERGE. I'm certain that reading this would be beneficial to you.......you can thank me later on 😉


Bishop T. D Jakes titled his message 'My battle is my bread' and took is text from Numbers 14 vs 1 to 9 where the Israelites grumbled about the wilderness and the reports of the spies after they spied on the promise land. Here are the points I scribbled:



  • Of all things you'd need to be successful, you have to be relentless.




  • You must be relentless enough to pay the price it takes to overcome the obstacles between you and your promise.




  • The promise is always guarded by problems.




  • Nobody places a guard where there is no treasure. The devil places a guard(problem) to stop you from your promise.




  • Most times we are taken out by the sight of the promise, we murmur and exalt it and leave out the promises...just like the spies did.




  • It is not what you go through that matters, it is how you perceive it. Until you see it right, you can't get it right.




  • Anxiety is to react to something that hasn't even happened yet.




  • Never go to battle where there are no spoils.




  • You have to believe! If God let you see it, you can be it!




  • Stop worrying about who says no or how many NOs....keep on looking for that one YES!




  • When you're a dreaming....be careful about who you speak to...




  • You've got to fight for everything God has given you. There's something at the other side that's worth the fight. The battle is a sign that there's bread on the other side.




  • My battle is my bread. I smell the bread!




  • Stop running from fights...you won't get a trophy.




  • You cannot get the promise without going through the process. There's something about the process that toughens you up for the promise.




  • You don't go into the gym to lifts the weights to move them, you're lifting the weights to move your body.




  • If you can't take the battle, you can't eat the bread.




  • Joshua thought he was he was working for Moses, little did he know that the land he was spying out was his.



You'd do yourself a lot of good by getting the whole of this message and other messages at the #SLC2017.


Remember that the battle comes as a sign that there's bread at the other side.

For over a year and a month I have been single, it was devastating at first as we had just four months to clock 3 years but when we spoke about a month after we broke up (she did the breaking) she told me she had moved on. It was hard to comprehend; how on earth do you move on after a relationship of more than 2 years that was so sweet and had no major issues? I was glad that she told me she had moved on though, cos it was all I needed to move on myself - what was I sulking for? Aunty no reason me again na 😂. She's happily engaged now and I'm really happy for her.

Generally, my love life has been really weird but when I sum it all up, it has been the reason for my healthy heart, my happiness and my confidence. Deep down somewhere - not desperately - I know I am ready for another relationship but I am not panicking. F...

“ Enough of spiritualizing yesterday’s tragic scene.  We should talk about policies that will end the various gas filling points and fuel stations located around our residential places.  Nigeria is a time bomb ticking to explode. This is the reality whether you accept it or deny it. Our society is driven by materialism and such society is at the mercy of profiteers that care less about safety. ”                                   - TDP (Taiwo David Popoola) My heart goes to those who have lost loved ones in the dark month of June. May God heal your hearts and ultimately heal our land. May the Souls of the departed rest in peace. Currently, I am: Wearing: Formal outfits. Been more of Business Casuals though and it’s really beginning to make sense to me. Can’t believe I was so blind to it. I’m still in love with casuals though. 🌚 Source: Phone Gallery   Admiring: ...

My Recent Playlist.

#tgif lovelies Recently, I have grown to become tired of my phone...not that it gives me issues but I have used it for so long (about 1 year and 5 months) and it sickens me sometimes, besides the windows phone and the windows store (especially if the OS is windows 8.1) is 'so dead' compared to the google play store.... I just need a change - something like the Nokia 6, sorry I mean the iPhone 8 or iPhone X would do 😉 Well back to the subject matter, today's post was inspired by a subscriber and a friend's post; "What's in my mailbox?" and though I plan to share mine one of these days, I have been stuck to one of the things that still makes my phone feel wanted and that is my playlist. My playlist could be boring to you and I apologise for that, it's not cos I'm a PK (preacher's kid) or a Christian, I really love music as it is the very perfect vessel (alongside art) through which we convey humankind's relationship with it...
