PERCEPTION:
                      ADEZE

Proverbs 27:9

Perfume and incense bring joy to the heart, and the pleasantness of a friend springs from their heartfelt advice.
--------------------------------------------
    A long time ago , there lived a maiden in a kingdom of western Africa. Her name was Adeze. She had her friend called Ewuka. 
Adeze was good at crafting her style. She wore luxurious clothes and modified African prints. She could wear any type of clothes she wanted as long as she saw them on the street. Even the latest imported fashion pieces, she would crave. But Adeze had one thing. There are times she wore tiny and very short clothes. And whenever she would want to visit Ewuka - her friend, she knew it was chance for her to move the village roads as many men would see her. So she could wear short clothes to attract men's attention on her way to Ewuka's home. She also would use her usual perfume. Of course the perfume was not the real problem.

People who were of age weren't pleased with her behavior and how she wore short clothes. Some people spoke to her but she refused to listen. As she was in high spirits and all feeling herself. Some people decided to speak to her friend Ewuka to warn her of her character. Ewuka rebuked her and said, "these mini wears are disgracing me and you too. You can't keep going around with such wears. I advise you to change. You can't get a responsible husband with irresponsible ways of dressing." Adeze was humbled by the talk and knew there was a good line to take home.

THE CREED AT THE THRONE

THE CREED AT THE THRONE   Psalms 40:1  I waited patiently for the Lord; he turned to me and heard my cry. -------------------------------------------- There are of course alot of times we pray for something and we feel we need that fast enough. And if am not mistaken , it is most of the times that we pray. We simply want answers right then. And some demand for the answers right away. But either way, you want God to come to your aid at the time you think He should come. But have you ever wondered why some people pray and receive their answers alittle fast compared to a similar prayer someone else had? Well that happens, you can pray and I pray the same thing yet we receive answers at different times.  With the scripture above, interpreting it may seem easy, but diving into it could seem a bit hard. The psalmist says, he patiently waited, then the Lord came to him and heard Him. The important note here is patiently waited. And secondly we see that the Lord comes...

FORWARD

FORWARD Luke 13:33  In any case, I must press on today and tomorrow and the next day—... --------------------------------------------    A Levite in the desert thought was cunning. After killing the Egyptian, he sauntered back to the community. Little did he realise that he was noticed by his fellow and that the news had gone about faster than it could. Knowing this, he fled to Midian where he met the Lord. And being asked by the Lord to rescue his people from slavery, Moses refused. He thought that role was better with someone more superior. But after the Lord insisting, he took the task. The people who were thought as slaves were no lesser to stubbornness and disrespect. They gave Moses hard time. But one thing that happened was forward movement.  Even the Lord used lots of wonders to sustain them through the journey and yet many died from their stubbornness. But regardless of their deaths, the journey went forward. God moved forward. Moses faced the worst of trial...

OLDEN STRENGTH

OLDEN STRENGTH Psalm 77:1 I will remember the deeds of the Lord; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago. -------------------------------------------- It is easy to go through life thinking about the future and forgetting the past. Craving for the future is one thing I have realized does not end. Even the very rich still have cravings. There can not be a moment where cravings end and the mind is inactive only thriving in gratification. Such a moment is only created by us. Anyway, that was a by- the- way. Our point starts from here. The future does not hold the roots but the past does. The roots are not from the sky but are from where the tree started. What makes the tree strong are the roots .  What makes the future strong are the roots. They are the past. You cannot know where you should go unless you know where you came from. How typical you may know where you came from is another factor.  Knowing that God is great is not knowing the future that holds. Knowing that Go...
