BE A WORD-ADDICT!

Study To Show Thyself Approved Unto God, A Workman That Needeth Not To Be Ashamed, Rightly dividing The Word Of Truth (2 Timothy 2:15).

The only thing in life for which you must develop a voracious appetite is the Word of God; be a Word-addict. Some people are addicted to wrong things in life; but being a Word-addict will make you success. The same way a pupil is expected to attend class in order to make a good grades, God expect you to attend to His Word to being successful in life: “My son, attend to my words incline thine ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they. are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh” (Proverbs 4:20-22).
Success in life is dependent on the amount of God’s Word you know and put to work. This is the reason you must give yourself wholly to the Word of God through study and meditation (1 Timothy 4:15). Make a habit of studying God’s Word consistently, for God’s Word is the food for your spirit. Studying the Word and having your spirit imparted with revelat ion knowledge will help you live the triumphant life in Christ.
In studying the Bible, ask the Holy spirit to grant you understanding and fill your spirit with the revelation of His Word. He’s the author of the Scriptures and will unveil truths to you from the Word, if you ask Him. As you give yourself to the Word, you’ll discover the beauty of God’s righteousness and the glorious life He has given you. You’ll get to know His perfect will and work in pre-ordained pathways, producing results to the glory of Christ.

RESTORATION IN FULL

Like everyone else I set out for journey of life
Journey to the city of destiny
Whose compound is surrounded with success
My aim, my ambition, my hope and my destination

The journey is not as smooth as I thought
The road to the place called destiny
Full of disappointment, failure and challenges
If I had known I won’t have started before

One thing struck me as I journey on
The people we started together have left me

I thought of following their path
But alas! The same became wilderness

At the junction of greatness
where my competence was to be put on test
All effort one can think of all wisdom,
qualification acquired
But all to no avail

Still at the junction of greatness with sorrows of life
Those behind me have already cross
Those we started together are already
shining as gold for the world to see

In my helpless and depressed situation
Salvation came across as a side attraction
I grabbed the offer without waiting
Hmm the joy of salvation, the joy of liberty

As I continue in the journey
With Holy Spirit as my co-traveller
Soon I reached all I have lost.
