                                                                               CHAPTER ONE Introduction As ambitious as the generation today; to make money and enjoy life, it is not wrong if is done rightly. Qur’an (Chapter 5:4-7 and 11-12) affirms that creation is for man’s benefit. The bible record that God had plans for man to subdue the earth. Thus, to take dominion over other things created. God has plans for man and Bible says they are good, not evil plans. God wants His children to enjoy the milk and honey of life that is why He prepared Canaan for His chosen people. You (no matter who you are) are part of this people. We must enjoy life on earth as well as in heaven. Heaven is not for the poor (economically poo...

And the whole earth was of one language and of one speech. And it came to pass as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar. And they dwelt there. And they said let's make brick and burn them thoroughly. And they had brick for stone and slime for mortar. And they said, let us build us a city and a tower whose top May reach heaven, and let's make a name. Lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the earth.(what they feared) And the Lord said, Behold the people is one, they have one language. Go to, let us go down there and confound their language that they may not understand another's speech. So the Lord scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of the earth. This piece means no harm at all. It's the truth after all. It is no one's fault, neither is it a bad result. That some nations should be poorer than others. It's all crafted in the plans of the almighty potter. It's not an issue of environmental determinism...

Apart from being a tuber foodstuff, it's also used in Ghana to make phone calls. Prior to a Tigo advert on Ghana Television, a yam is a non android phone with only radio and torch. Therefore if it's not a smartphone, then that's certainly a Yam. As human beings, there are many traits in our genes from birth or creation: Character, nature, dialect, behaviour, ethnicity and colour. Some others can be learnt, others are adopted both consciously and unawares. Most of them good, others not very helpful; those are the YAMS we must get rid of. Whether yours is small or bigger yam, I am quite doubtful. But these few acronyms can be insightful: Your Acquired Motives Your Attitudes and Mindset Your Adopted Mentality Your Accrued Memory Your Anachronistic Misconceptions That part of your character that society shuns is a yam. The little things you believe you cannot stop, this mediocre Mindset is even a bigger yam. Though learnt it from friends, you can do away w...

The half-night service was awesome and the song ministration from her had kept people on their knees. The chorus leader, a very beautiful and attractive God-fearing lady slept late that night. This is the story of this sister who slept and woke up in a foreign land. She looked around and nothing being familiar, she began wondering how she got to be there.  Looking around, she realized a large city with a beautiful small door. Walking to the room, she saw a man in immaculate white robe. That must be an angel, she said in her heart. Mr. Angel, am a stranger knowing not what is going on. The last thing I remember is I slept last night. “This is a body laid down and spirit taken to get a crown. You might have heard of heaven where you came from. Only those whose names are found written in this book of life shall forever rest in paradise” the angel said.  Flipping through the pages in search of her name, she came across names of saints, prophets and friends who kept ...

One old man said to me," when your friends are ahead in life, so are they in rites of passage and so do not hurry after them because if they  truly started, then they will die before you." That's not an option for pessimism but to remove the ladder from the feet of the optimist up there that he may not find it easy coming down._he remains on top. The career you need is someone's bread winner. In his right time he will retire. The lady isn't approving your proposal not because you are incapable but that she doesn't deserve you. Money for the car isn't God's problem but to avoid that accident is his priority. There is enough gift for everyone on earth, even twice as much. But time and chance happens to them in God's own season. Youth of today have ambitious dreams not too great but too soon. Wanting to achieve without creating, making profits by cheating. It is only expedient that you walk towards your opportunity but the pathway matters. God...

" A bolt out of the blue" A wood or metal, rod for fastening objects together that usually has head at one end and a screw thread at the other secured by a nut. Thus a bolt. No Matter the endurance and durability, no bolt can forever withstand wear, tear,friction, rust and corrosion. It may last for years but only takes a day. Per internet sources,: It all started at age 12 over a free lunch. Ricardo,the fastest amongst them was bickering with his friend over who the quickest sprinter was. Rev. Nugent persuaded them to contest. The winner would enjoy free lunch of choice. At the end, Ricardo was beaten to it. "If you can beat Ricardo, you can beat anyone on the track", Rev Nugent told Bolt. A new star was then born. Born on 21st August 1986, he made history in August 20,2016 as the Olympics legend for breaking records and winning 9 gold medals as reigni...
