WHAT DOES THE WORD "SUCCESS" MEAN TO YOU?

The battles against your life are not against your success, but more against you using your success for the right purpose. A Failure in life is not someone who is not a non-achiever, but an achiever who is ignorant of the purpose attached to his or her achievements. The world defines success based on what people have and who they are; success is none of the above. Who you are, and what you have are merely raw materials for success. Success is what one ultimately accomplishes by employing and deploying what one has and who one is. Many people are being distracted by what they have and who they are, instead of focusing on what they can accomplish using what God has given them.

There is a purpose attached to everything; doing business with the consciousness of purpose in view is an evidence of wisdom. Don't celebrate "what," at the expense of "why." Dr Benard Etta

THE TRUTH YOU DON’T KNOW CAN COST YOUR LIFE!

Posted by Global Faith Coalition on April 9, 2015 at 11:52am

A man attended one of my conferences at the Yaoundé Hilton Hotel in 2004, before then, I knew him as a healthy man, but when I saw him, I was surprised by his skinniness. I later learnt that, a medical doctor told him he was HIV positive. This man emaciated so fast because of the report he got from the doctor; he knew he was closer to his grave.

As days went by, he was encouraged by some friends to consult another doctor; guess what! After careful examination, the doctor found him to be HIV negative and questioned the results of the initial doctor.

When they returned to the first doctor with the new results, the doctor realized that, the blood sample he used for his test was that of another man with the HIV virus. Thus, the doctor gave someone else's report to the man who has never been HIV Positive any time in his life.

The man emaciated so fast and was actually dying gradually as a result of the wrong information he got about his HIV status. When he got the truth which was never given to him before, everything about him changed. He got his life back and experienced speedy recovery.

You might be wondering where I'm heading to with this story. Listen! 95% of our frustrations as human beings are based on the incorrect information we are unconsciously operating on. Most deaths today are caused by the inaccurate information given to people by their friends, parents, doctors, teachers, society and even governments.

Nothing liberates like the truth! If the truth is hidden from you, your very life has been taken from you. That's why; Christ established once and for all, what we all need when he said:"And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."

It was a fact that the first doctor labeled him HIV Positive, but the truth he needed to know was that, he was not HIV positive. There is a difference between truth and facts; truth is absolute, while facts change. What lies, have you unconsciously built your life on? The truth and only the truth can expose the lies manipulating your life.

Many thousands of years ago, the creator of heaven and earth gave us the most authentic report regarding our lives. The report was lived by Jesus Christ and written down in the Scriptures. It's time to discover what your true-life status is from the word of God.

Jesus answered, "It is written: 'Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.'"

Remember, if you are not informed, you would be deformed. Your formation is directly related to the information you expose yourself to. It's time to know the truth! It's time to be rightly informed! Dr.Benard Etta

Wisdom To Turn Trash Into Treasure

The wisdom to turn trash into treasure; to make sense out of nonsense, to transform obstacles into miracles; pain to gain; setbacks into a setup for a comeback is the real measurement of maturity. Sometimes, God may not remove the necessity, but would give you the wisdom to transform it into an invention. When Israel saw Goliath, they saw a problem, but David saw an opportunity for greatness. You can't rise above your perspective and perception of issues. I wish you a blessed week.  DrBenard Etta

 

Don't Mistake Disgrace For Grace!

When it is too easy, it isn't always a sign of God's grace at work; it may also be an indication that the "object or mission" even though fabulous, might be of little eternal consequences.

The ideas, visions, and dreams, which have actually changed the world positively, and impacted time and eternity didn't come easy. The absence of battles may not necessarily be an indication of a breakthrough. It might as well be an indication that the axe head, representing the "edge of effectiveness" is missing.

Why on earth would Hell fight an idea, vision and movement when it's aware it isn't longer a threat? That's why the devil sponsors some churches and ministries since they don't threaten his overall plan.

The bottom line is, when one is no longer a menace (threat) to Hell, Hell will stop fighting the individual, while concentrating its resources to fight those carrying the most dangerous lights, which can destroy its deceptions. May God help us to think deep in order not to mistake disgrace for grace. Ponder to be a wonder!

No nation can experience positive transformation unless it is rescued from the ignorance propagated by individuals who use religion and politics for self aggrandizement. There seem to be a romance between religion and politics aimed at taking captive the minds of the masses, deceiving and leading them to self-destruct. The 21st century church will stem the tides of these twin evils through a peaceful revolution with truth as its weapon. DrBenard  Etta
