CONNECT TO HELP.

The enemy has an upper hand on the person that prides himself in isolation. Consider your ways, wherever you are lagging is as a result of limited knowledge in such area, so what do you do? You connect to minds better than you. (You will always see the rich&business men surrounding themselves with brighter people than themselves, why?) We are made to connect. Man is not made for self-dependence or sufficiency. A Yoruba adage says that snakes get killed easily because they choose not to walk in convoy. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THESE FOLLOWING TO PROGRESS IN LIFE 1. HELP AT THE LEVEL OF CHURCH Any true Christian that does not belong to any Christian Assembly which he/she is nurtured is lacking in a vital thing knowingly or unknowingly. Church is a spiritual family, where man's spirit is established. It's too risky not to be spiritual in this present life, nor stay connected to the Source, why? Because, '...the whole world lies in wickedness...' 1 John 5:19 2. MENTOR When someone says Jesus is only his or her mentor, I often laugh in me. You know what it means, it's like asking, 'Who is your father?' And you say, 'God!' Of course, it's only a possessed or a paranoid person that will claim that the devil is his own father, but you see, Jesus is our all-time Mentor, but a man that needs getting anywhere in life must have a physical, nearby mentor situated on his path in life to equip him as necessary, in as much you have a biological father (you can quote me anywhere) Why would God not give birth to us by Himself, and made us to come through one physical father? Food for thought. Without a mentor or a coach, you are setting up a system of errors and limitation for yourself. If Paul the Apostle before he became the most excelling of the Apostles needed to be laid hands on, and be identified with by the 12 Apostles to be launched forth...who are you and me? I believe I need a mentor. There are helps in mentor(s), be guided of God to relate with one or more; may God give you understanding. 3. 'LIVE BOOKS' I can never go together for long with someone that has no respect for books that can impact or change his thoughts. It's said that about 45% of graduates hardly read a complete book to finish it after college, even books that can build them up...no wonder youngsters fill up everywhere with bizarre behavioural problems with seemingly no future orientation. Dear friend, there's no new 'becoming' anywhere, what you read forms what you believe, and then what you become. It takes more than first class to have a great destiny. 'Street-smartness' and great life principles are unfortunately extra-curricular as pertaining to school syllabus; therefore, we are on our own! Whatever secret you will need to become any worthwhile thing is someone's open knowledge, if you don't connect, you may never collect it. Life books include the Bible, spirit-inspired books,biographies,etc #HOLY SPIRIT This is the biggest Helper we can have ever. Jesus is on earth today but by His Spirit; we should all learn the way to walk in the Spirit. The help is always there. All of us Christians should get to the stage where we will know Him more than our pastors, if we keep growing. The wisdom is that, no man ever makes it alone, you are not supposed to hope so. CONNECT!
