This Can Make You Loose Everything

Today, I'd like to talk about something that can sneak up on us and steal everything we hold dear—pride!


Pride is like a thief in the night; it can creep in unnoticed and rob us of our relationships, our joy, and even our connection with God. And the scary thing is, we often don't even realize it's happening until it's too late.


But here's the thing: pride is anti-God. When we let pride take the wheel, we're essentially saying that we know better than God, that we can handle things on our own without His help. And that's just not true. God is the one who gives us life, who gives us breath, and who gives us purpose. When we let pride in, we're pushing Him out.


So, what does pride look like in our lives? It can look like an inflated sense of self-importance, a need to always be right, or a refusal to listen to others. It can also look like competition, comparison, and criticism. And if we're not careful, pride can lead to damaged relationships, missed opportunities, and even lost dreams.


But there's hope! We can overcome pride by recognizing the signs in our lives, humbling ourselves, and asking for help. We can choose to listen to others, to learn from their perspectives, and to walk in kindness and empathy. And most importantly, we can choose to surrender our pride to God, and let Him be the one to guide us.


So, let's kick pride to the curb and build stronger, more loving relationships - with God and with each other!


I believe in you!

Picture an eagle in a cage. No matter how beautiful the cage is, the eagle was not designed to live in a cage. It was designed to soar on the highest heights and mountains with courage and flair. No matter the lure of the cage, it can never surpass the freedom of the eagle soaring in all expanse of the skies in all of its glories and strength. Like the eagle trapped, too many brilliant, gifted, called individuals are trapped in the cage of careers they were not designed for. They can never command their true worth and value, they can only eat the crumbs they are being fed by their captors. The lure of salaries and pennies that will never satisfy keeps them in such cages. They would rather remain in the rat race than take the risks for their freedom and glory. The Bible says, "If the Son (Jesus) sets you free, you will be free indeed." - John 8:36 As a child of God, you can break free! You were not designed to be caged! Any job that does not give you the freedom to express your gifts, talents and calling is a cage. One of the biggest graveyards of purpose I see is this graveyard of unfulfilling careers. People get jobs only for the sake of earning, rather than fulfilling their life's calling and pursuing what matters to them. But here's the truth: The careers you were not designed for will not satisfy you. They will leave you with voids and emptiness. At the end of your career, you would lack true legacy, influence and impact. Your time to break free is now. I believe in you. Dr Samuel Ekundayo
