1. Love alone is not enough for a successful relationship.
2. Marrying a man or woman who doesn't work is courting for trouble.
3. Stay away from people who live without vision. They are full of envy and may destroy what you have toiled for. They never valued their life and they surely would not value yours.
4. The person you marry must share in your value standards and vision else your relationship is bound for shipwreck.
5. Always be involved in a person of your same level, both of you see things through the same lenses; birds of the same feathers can flock together.
6. People are more important than money.
7. Stay away from hostile people, you may end been like them and they bring out the worst in you.
8. Some friends benefit you more than your own siblings.
9. Certain friends can destroy your life entirely.
10. Don't do only one business, two or more will bring you multiple streams of income. Furthermore, if one doesn't sell the other will.
11. Be careful of loan applications, it can make and unmake you. Once you take a loan it is as if everything has ceased, it becomes difficult to pay and lenders will worry your soul.
12. A good Education can increase your income greatly.
13. Education gives skills and creates opportunities for you. What is more, you can become any person you want to become.
14. Education affects the human spirit and changes people for the better.
15. Real focus in life comes through education, the more you learn the more you see things clearly. Hence better decisions.
16. Education will give you clout.
17. God is not answerable to anybody. He does what he wants. It is not wise to fault Him.
18. We must not use religion or our ministries to harass and bully people. The Holy Spirit is gentle and harassing and bullying people are not the ways of God. They are flesh.
19. Prophets and Pastors (Ministries), prophecy and prayer (spiritual gifts) are a means to an end. They should not be our goal, our goals should be results.
20. Don't try to be another man of God or throw away your message, you could lose your anointing.
21. Every ministry is powerful and attractive. There are teaching ministries that stand out in our generation and so do other ministries like the apostolic, prophetic and so on. Stay in your call.
22. Ministry is not only Church. Writing, singing, helping etc are ministries that have touched the world immensely. Mother Theresa (help ministry) touched the world and received the salutes of presidents worldwide.
23. Be an independent thinker. Don't entrust your life to another man of God fully. You give them chance to finish you in their anger. In their mistakes you become an experiment and a casualty.
24. Religion they say is the opium or poison of the people. Mankind have killed each other in the name of religion. Wars, famine, poverty are it's making. Don't be turned into an animal because of religion.
25. Religion is what man thinks is a certain way of serving God which makes them force you to do same. Serving God is not by force. God is not one way, what is good for you may not be good for me. Let people be, God is their judge. Be content with saying as scripture says.
26. Serving God is a heart issue; it is your conscience that should be your guide, not someone's concocted rules and ideologies or rituals.
27. There is no true relationship with God without prayer and bible study.
28. God hasn't postponed our success for the future. He said he wish that we have prospered. Our mistakes and thoughtlessness is what delay our success.
29. Life is short. Enjoy the little things that make you happy, that little story book, that meal, that movie etc. Contentment is the true wealth.
30. Don't worry too much because you would die some day, even so, you might not achieve what you set out to achieve.
31. Satan and demons and their tricks are real. Those who ignore this truth get punished and victimized.
32. God loves you.
Thanks all the birthday wishes.
Your level has changed!
