The Wrd 4 2dy is ”Faith”
Faith means ”Complete trust or confidence in somone or something or strong belief in God”
To have faith in God or d God kind of faith is when u have confidence in Him to take care of u. U can’t profess to ve faith when u can’t entrust ur life in God’s hands.
The tragic of life is not death but while, living purpose is unknown, or d giver of purpose can’t be trusted.
Je…r 1: 5 says b/4 conception God knew man & decided or programed his journey 4 life.
Then in Jer 29: 11 He reaffirms His plan & commitment to man & promised a gr8 ending.
Friend if faith is confidence in God & ur life is in His hands why not release yourself to Him unreserved & let d purpose of life not only become clearer but pleasureable.
keep walking in faith IJN.
The Wrd 4 2dy is “foolishness”
The dict defines foolish as when “a person lacks good sense of judgement, unwise, silly ridiculous etc”
The wrd fool is mentioned about 69times in d bible & foolish is mentioned about 48times.
As a student of d bible I know that when God mentions a word more than once, it is very important to take note of it.
A good example is in Psalm 5: 5 where it says “the foolis…h shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.”
Well this scripture doesn’t surprise me in any way, after all; in line with d defin above when a man/woman lacks good judgement e.g. Never thinks through a decision or action b/4 proceeding there is bound to be crisis & such never gets Gods approval.
Friend why not let God guide Ur plans & process 2dy according to Proverbs 3: 5 & foolish outcome will never be Ur lot, but approval to stand b/4 Him.
May d Lord judge us faithful 4 His presence IJN.
The wrd 4 2dy is "Poverty"
The wrd poverty means 1) The state of being extremely poor, or 2) The state of being inferior
in quality or insufficient amount.
B/4 d charismatic era to be poor was a sign of true holiness & closeness to God, h/ever with
d emergence of d charismatic movement to be rich was a sign of living in the true knowledge
of God's provision & not to be means you haven't discoveredd true God.
However 2dy with many being rich has come an issue of aberration. Many have lost their faith,
peace, joy, hope etc.
It need be said that Poverty in its true sense is not really d lack of money but d absence of
"Soteria".
Soteria is a Greek wrd 4 salvation, health, deliverance from molestation, preservation, safety
etc.
Friend the absence of these in a man's life even if he is rich in resources indicates he is
still poor, what is essence of money and be in fear of molestation or be riddled with one
health problem or d other. Let's seek Soteria & see if money won't follow us.
I pray that according to 3 John 1:3 not only will you prosper but peace, health & strength
will follow you for the rest of your days on earth.
Shalom
The wrd 4 2dy is “Hurt”
The wrd hurt means “to cause mental or emotional sufferings.
This suffering is always in Ur heart/soul where Ur mind, will, emotions & actions are deliberated. Many are living from their soul & thus circumstances that trigger mental & emotional heartache will always affect them.
Prov 4: 23 – encourages us to guard our heart with all diligence 4 out of it flows d issues of life.
My friend d best way to guard Ur heart, is to look at why God d father isn’t hurt with d current state of His creation. Simple, God operates from love; when you operate from love, it wld be difficult 4 anyone to hurt or offend u.
1Jh 4 says God is love & 1Cor 13: 7-8 says love bears all things & endures all things…..
To avoid being hurt or disappointed which leads to mental or emotional suffering; 2dy make a conscious decision to start living & operating Ur life in d true love of God called Agape.
Agape is loving with d absence of condition, it’s loving totally & wholly.
May d Lord help u IJN (Amen)
Remain strong

Stars are not born but they are made from people born
What can be made out of you?
Jeremiah 1:5 (Amplified Bible)
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew [and] approved of you [as My chosen instrument], and before you were born I separated and set you apart, consecrating you; [and] I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.”
Purpose is the engine of life
A life driven by purpose is accelerated by passion
A life void of purpose is driven by emptiness
A life driven by emptiness stalls at failure and terminates at non accomplishment.
Find your purpose quickly and let passion accelerate you to accomplishment.
Daniel 11:32 (King James Version)
“…………..: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.”
If we don’t want to be faith failures we need to be consistent in our work with God, not stand on the word one day and fall off it the next day. We cannot base today on yesterday’s bible study.
In the natural, we are anything but consistent. Our human nature tend to be up one day and down the next. As born again children of God we have Jesus Christ living within us. And if Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever (Hebrews 13: 8), if He isn’t fickle and doesn’t change His mind from one day to another, we can be the same too if we press into the power He has made available within us.
There is a revelation of God that comes from consistency, but the inconsistent person would never see. Jesus said if we would continue in His word, then we would be His disciples indeed. He said if we would continue we would know the truth and that truth would make us free (John8: 31-32)
Determine today to be consistent.
Base today on today’s Bible study.
Start with the word today.
Stay on the Word all-day and end the day with the Word.
Then tomorrow get up and do it all again.
Continue in the Word everyday there is power in consistency.
God bless Pastor Busola Okeowo
It amazes me when people can go about life saying that they are not a believer of anything. I disagree with such a statement when it is made because I believe there is something you’ve got to believe in. If you don’t believe there is a God, which is exactly what people are trying to say when they make such statements like this then let’s converse.
But do you know that you are seriously not saying the truth when you make utterances like this, except if you are living without a purpose. But if you are living with a purpose then there is got to be something you believe in, which is either a being permitted your existence for a purpose or you just came into existence by accident.
Now if you are like me who believes nothing happens by accident, then there is a being in charge of your existence who I am certain is expecting a delivery from you of the assignment you are commissioned to carry out.
Do you know that this is the time to find out who that being is?
