Man!!! Oh son of Man!!! Hear Me!!!!!!!!!!!
Many people run from pillar to post in search of success.
For one reason or the other it refuses to come. Though there are other Causes, one of the most common which prevent a lot of people from achieving their desired success is that millions of people; Sons of Men; seek success the easy way. They work not but want the success of one who works hard. The desperate ones in their bid to attain success;by hook or crook, throw away the key to their road to success. There are only two ingredients to achieving success. Mix the two together and the sky will not just be your Limit but your starting point.
The first ingredient for success is God.Utter abandonment to God is the way of Blessings and success. There is a saying that:''There cant be two captains in one ship''.There is need to hand over everything that concerns you to God and Let him Navigate the ship, bearing in mind that in all the challenges facing you,you have complete victory through him who loves you.For I am certain that nothing can separate us from his Love. But if you stay at the helm of your affairs and ask God to follow, surely you will miss the Mark.
The second ingredient for success is Hard-work. Gold when just harvested from the ground used to look ugly and useless but after it has passed through fire, it becomes refined,shiny & beautiful. The alabaster vase must be broken,that the ointment may flow out to fill the house. The grapes must be crushed that there may be wine to drink. In essence, the palm must be calloused, the hand sandy, if the mouth must become oily.One must work hard to reap success.
All this gives us a simple calculation;
God + Hard-work = SUCCESS.
If one works very hard but commit not his work into Gods able hands, he becomes an easy prey to the enemies of success. so also, if one prays a lot but does no work, he is no nearer to success than he was before.
Therefore be determined today to work as if everything depends on your effort and hard-work and pray as if everything depends on Prayer alone.With this two, success is as good as achieved. Do your best and leave the rest for God. God bless you.

Who do you serve?
The God you want or the God who is? We now modify God, the christian faith & values to fit our own purpose. We sin, yet we rationalize it, make excuses & say God will understand. But we forget so soon that there are saints who walked this path before us, who were once in the same fix we find ourselves in but they made heaven because they refused to compromise. We must bear it in mind that God does not change, neither does his standard change. He is an impartial judge & will use the same standard to judge us all. He is the God of Old, the Unchangable God. If he accepts your "rationalizations" & "God will understand excuses", he might end up tendering Apologies to Sodom & Gomorah & all the saints who lived a holy life amisdts the sins in this world. So I ask again, who do we serve? The God who really is or the one we concieved for ourselve in our minds to fit some purposes in our lives? Think about it. May the lord bless words in our hearts, Amen.
