AVOID DRAMA AT ALL COST

AVOID DRAMA AT ALL COST
AVOID DRAMA AT ALL COST!
Some time ago, I was leading a team and there's this one member of this team who just loved drama.
It's either someone was looking at her a certain way, or she's sure someone does not like her, or she believed someone is thinking a certain thing about her or the team wasn't doing one or two things to her satisfaction.
It was always a case of one thing or the other, accusing people and refusing to be available as a result.
At first, I thought it was the team's fault, maybe we could love her more, win her over so she knows we truly love her, or maybe we could adjust better, and so on.
She took a break from the team and after several months, I realised, there was no more drama! No more fights, no more issues, no more suspicion.
Why am I sharing this with you?
Please avoid drama at all costs!
A life of drama will not let you fulfill God's purpose for your life.

If you are a drama king or queen, you will realise you will be too busy creating drama and fighting people that you will not have time to build all God has committed into your hands to build.
Also, not only will you be affecting your own impact and influence, you will be slowing down other people around you in their tracks.
The teams you're in will struggle because of your drama-filled life!
Usually, people who are full of drama are those who have unrealistic expectations of others. There is a certain way people must behave around them, talk to them, look at them, call their names, respect them, etc.
And when people don't meet those expectations, all hell would break loose!
Such drama-filled existence is risky for the fulfillment of God's purpose for your life.
________________________________
And to those who have drama kings and queens on their teams and life, avoid them as best as you can.
The more time you spend dwelling on their drama, trying to fix or please them, the more you'd be distracted from God's purpose for your life.
You will lose your vision while trying to please such people.
Lot was the drama-king in the life of Abraham in the Bible. His herdsmen and those of Abraham were always fighting - and it became an issue until Abraham has to ask for a separation.
In Genesis 13:14, the Bible recorded, "After Lot had gone, the LORD said to Abram, 'Look as far as you can see in every direction--north and south, east and west"
God will not speak to you or show you the way forward until some drama kings and queens leave your life!
Separate from them, stop trying to fix or please them at the expense of your vision and purpose. Don't be fixing drama that will cost you the kingdom of God.
Life is too short to engage in drama and strife! If they are not leaving, leave for them!
I hope this has helped you?

Looking at my life today, some might assume I was born with a golden spoon in my mouth. They see the progress, the platforms, the opportunities, the impact—and they conclude, “He must have had it all figured out from the start.” But here’s the truth... I wasn’t born with a golden spoon. In fact, I wasn’t even born with a spoon at all. The circumstances surrounding my birth were far from rosy. My beginning was rough, humble, and almost forgettable by the standards of this world. There was nothing to suggest that I would one day stand where I stand today, speak as I speak today, or do what I do today. But I was helped. I was helped by God. That’s the only reason I’ve come this far. And that, dear friend, is why I’m writing this—to remind you that it doesn’t matter where or how you were born . Your background, no matter how limiting or disadvantaged, cannot stop God’s plan for your life. You may not have had the best education. You may have been born into poverty. You may have been rejected, neglected, abandoned or overlooked. But when God steps into your life , He rewrites the story. He is not intimidated by your limitations. In fact, He specializes in using the foolish things of this world to confound the wise. He lifts the poor from the dust and sets them among princes (Psalm 113:7-8). You don’t need a silver spoon, golden spoon, or any spoon at all. All you need is His help . My life is a testament to this truth: God still helps men. He still lifts. He still promotes. He still turns nobodies into wonders. And I believe the same will happen for you. If you will let Him, If you will trust Him, If you will surrender your life to Him… You will become a miracle. You will become a wonder. Your story will be one that generations will talk about. So here’s my charge to you: Stop disqualifying yourself based on your background. Stop underestimating what God can do through you. Stop comparing your journey with someone else’s. Instead, start seeking God’s help. Start walking in faith. Start declaring His promises over your life. Because your story—yes, YOUR story—is not over yet. In fact, it’s just beginning. You are next in line for a miracle. I believe in you!
