BE YOURSELF!

Man know thyself-Aristotle

In life, we should decide to be nothing than ourselves. We should learn to appreciate the way we are created. We should behave, act and do in accordance to our inherent" makeup". No wonder the great philosopher, Aristotle once said "Man know thyself" He understands the power of self. He understands that everyone is created in a unique fashion. But in our society today, the reverse is just the case. People have changed just as the world changed drastically. They now emulate the entire life styles of other people even to an extent of coping the way they dress, talk and make their hairs. They have lost the unique power inside of them and have sort for other ways to live better.

Few days ago, I went to a barber's shop to have my hair cut. As I sat down, my eyeballs fell on a large mirror hanged on the wall just in front of me. I looked intently at my reflection, the color of my skin, the shape of my eyeballs, and I smiled and said silently in my heart "I am great, I appreciate the way I am created" Those words sank deep inside of me. It raised my self worth. I develop an usual likeness for my self. That incidence spurred me to writing this article. As the barber grabbed the clippers, he said to me "Why not try this haircut style" as he pointed his fingers to a paper that hung on the wall. I refuted his suggestion and replied "Please kindly give me my usual haircut style" After having my haircut, I realized that, everyone was created differently and that we should decide to be ourselves, maintaining our dormant features and characteristics.

 God created us for a specific purpose and consequently put in us special qualities and features to help use accomplish that purpose. He knew everything about you ever before your parents thought of bringing you to this planet earth. He programmed everything  about you and installed them inside you in form of you looks, physique, characters, speech, height and others. The bible says in Genesis1:27 "So God looked at everything he had made, and he was very pleased"  So the way you are is never an accident. So why will you conform to the standard of this world neglecting the "goldmine" within you. Many a youth are living a lie. How they behave, the clothes they wear, how they walk are just a replica of a particular person.Why? The answers are left for us to answer. The bottom line of this article is Be Yourself!

John Mason will say "You are born original, don't die a copy" No wonder 9ice said in his popular hit track "photocopy, ko easy"(photocopy is not easy) . Please mind you, I am not saying you should not inculcate the good qualities and habits of people like: perseverance, courage, Diligence and Humility. All am inferring is that, you should always be yourself!

In an interview, I watched on TV on the life of the female actress, Omotola Ekehinde, She was asked if she had role models. Her replied left me dumbfounded. She said "I learn from professionals, but the only rolemodel I have is myself" She gave an insightful answer because she understood the power of appreciating and being oneself.

Decide today, to be nobody order than yourself!
Thanks,
Cyprian Udebuike.

IS THERE NO BALM IN NIGERIA?

Is there no medicine in Gilead-Jer.8:22

Nigeria, the giant of Africa, like she is fondly called may be likened to Gilead. How ?, you may ask. The word Gilead means: A region east of Jordan, famous for plants that were used for medicinal purposes. Jeremaih felt a burden in his heart for the fate and future of the people he had been called to lead. He saw the problems facing the people of Isrealities that he was prompted to ask "Is there no medicine in Gilead?"


Many of us have felt the pains of bad Leadership, dilapidated infrastrustures, pot holes that posed itself has dead traps waiting to take the lives of our citizens, ill treatement offerred to patients at hospitals, and many. I believe you know them more than I do? What about the epileliptic power supply that had chased company and industries out of their fatherland? In fact I wrote this article with a candle light. What about the economic crunch? I once read from a magazine that about 2 million children or thereabout go to bed daily without food! It really dishearting,in spite of the fact that we are sitting on a goldmine.

Nigerian is acclaimed to be the giant of Africa, yes I agree but who will bridge this roomy gap between the "haves" and haves-not". How many of this so called rich men will stoop low to raise hands that in need. Ha I am in pain right now! Nigerian claims to be one of the blessed African countries, yet people are still suffering. People are still dying of hunger and from lack of care and frustration. In the words of late M.K.O Abiola, he said "To be rich is to reach others" I think I agree  vehemently to that statement. I will say this again, Nigerian is endowed with plethora mineral resources but we have not done anything meaningful with it to help save the lives of her citizens.

Nigeria is beset with pervasive problems in spite of her free gifts of nature. Greed have succeded in controlling the people on "'top". The have forgetten the people  "below" so soon. Why? I felt this same feelings Jeremaih felt, and I have no other option than to scream in my prayers "Is there no medicine in Nigeria?"
"I wish my head were a well of water, and my eyes a fountain of tears, so that I could cry day and night for my people who have been killed-Jer9:1
-Where do the soulutions lie?
-What are our leaders doing?
-Let's stand up for waht is right!
-Let start and keep praying for our country!
-Let manage our resources!
Let always remember the poor!
"Despite the challenges today, despite the destructions, I have a dream for our country let hear this
The sounds of violence will be heard nomore, destructions will not shatter your(our) country again. I will protect and defend you like a wall; you will praise me bcus I have saved you" Says the Lord.

He Died for You and Me!

Winning Always

Dapo Daniel Sadiku
Israel – a Lush Vine
God has an act of choice based on love. He chose the people of Israel accordingly: they became his chosen ones under the Old Covenant. This selection did not lie in any special size, nature, or attraction. They were been chosen because of God’s love for them and His unconditional covenant with Abraham (Deuteronomy 7:7-8).
The history of Israel commences with God’s covenant with Abraham, “I will make you a great nation” (Genesis12:2).The name Israel literally means a prevailing prince with God. It comes from the new name God gave Abraham’s grandson Jacob; after Jacob withstood a spiritual contend at Jabbok. It is at this point that the descendents of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob are often referred to as the children of Israel
They were also known by variety of names (epithet) coined by God almighty, to show their relationship with Him.  One of such names is “the vine or the vineyard of God.”
“You have brought a vine out of Egypt; you have cast out the nations, and planted it.” (Psalm 80:8)
“For the vineyard of the LORD of hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah his pleasant plant:” (Isaiah 5:7)
The ‘Real’ Israel of God
The children of Israel were the vine of God as a shadow, a dim preview of good things to come.
Of course, some would ask, ‘’who is an Israelite’’, ‘’who is a Jew?’’ The general dictionary meaning says a Jew is a member of the tribe of Judah, an Israelite or one whose religion is Judaism. In the Old Testament, the term “Jew” initially meant member of the tribe of Judah and Benjamin, who together comprise the southern kingdom of Judah. After a while, the term Jews and Israelite become fused.
In the New Testament, the gospel reveals the truth to us: It says regardless of nationality, race, colour or sex, a Jew or Israelite is a believer in the Lord God of Israel and His only begotten son, Jesus Christ. That is, the church is the spiritual Israel of God (Galatians 6:15-16)
‘For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is circumcision that which is outward in the flesh; but he is a Jew who is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the Spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from men but from God.’ (Romans 2:28-29)
God’s Immutable Plan
God brought the children of Israel out of Egypt, and did plant them in their own land, that they might bring forth fruits for the nations. So that in them, all the world could be blessed. They however fell short of this plan; they regarded their privileges and blessings as being only for themselves, and turned away from their God to idols. Thus, the saying, ‘Israel is an empty vine, he brings forth fruit unto himself :’( Hosea10: 1)
The most dramatic passage about the lacking of the house of Israel is what is called the ‘Beautiful Song of the Vineyard’: “Now let me sing to my Well-beloved A song of my Beloved regarding His vineyard: My Well-beloved has a vineyard On a very fruitful hill. He dug it up and cleared out its stones, And planted it with the choicest vine. He built a tower in its midst, and made a winepress in it; so He expected it to bring forth good grapes, But it brought forth wild grapes.’’(Isaiah 5:1-2)
Afterwards, God prophesized about a way out – His salvation plan to them:  ‘Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah’(Jeremiah31:31). However, this scripture about God’s plan:  And now, please let Me tell you what I will do to My vineyard: I will take away its hedge, and it shall be burned; And break down its wall, and it shall be trampled down. (Isaiah 5:5), will have to come to pass concurrently. So what happened? God cuts away, just as he said.
Indeed, when you read Rom 11:20a, Paul said, well; because of unbelief, they were broken off. They could not walk in the faith of God. However, with God’s plan of salvation been endorsed, all would definitely work out. So how did God do these things? I will show it to you now.
A Shoot from David’s Line
“A shoot will come up from the stump of Jesse, from his root a branch will bear fruit.” (Isaiah 11:1) NLT
A stump is the base of a tree left after the rest part has been cut down, while a shoot is a new growth from (a part of) a plant. Israel (the vine) was cut down from the entire plant; as a result, a stump was remaining. Then, out of that stump grew a shoot. This shoot speaks of Jesus.
Jesus got His body (physical) from this process, while His life came directly from God. For when you read Matthew. 1:18, it says, ‘Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: After His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit.’ So His life is divine.
“ concerning His Son Jesus Christ our Lord, who was born of the seed of David according to the flesh, and declared to be the Son of God with power according to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead. (Romans 1:3-4)
So why did he share in the physical nature? He did because if He had to die for us, as he did, then he had to be a partaker of Flesh and blood. (Hebrews 2:14).
A New Order
It is a new way: Jesus died and rose, not for the Jews (the people of Israel) only, but for the whole world. The word “Gentile or Greek” comes to place here. This is being used to describe or refer to a person, which is no Jewish. Apostle Paul said, “I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.”(Romans1:16).
The gospel of Christ is the message of God’s love extended to the whole world. God loves people, and the Bible reveals it: ‘For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.’ (John 3:16) (RSV).He loved everyone in the world, and thereby he gave a ransom for their lives. Anyone who believes the gospel is saved; possessing the life of God. This is an all-inclusive plan.
‘As indeed he says in Hosea, “Those who were not mypeopleI will call ‘my people,’ and her who was not beloved I will call ‘my beloved.’ (Romans 8:25) RSV
The non-Jews came-in by been grafted into the plant. To “graft in” is to cut from one plant and bound inside a cut in another, so that it grows there. As  we read in Romans 11:17, “And if some of the branches be broken off and thou, being a wild olive tree was grafted in among them, and with them partake of the root and fatness of the olive tree;”
The Power of Salvation
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ…it is the power of God unto salvation.” (Romans 1:16)
‘Salvation’ is the translation of the Greek word ‘Soteria”. It is an all-inclusive word of the gospel of Christ. Thus, more than salvation it means victory, health, power, joy, peace, and prosperity. It is a total life- the total package of all the goodies of life. As John, 10:10 puts it: Jesus said, “I have come that they might have life and have it to the full”. A life to the full means a super abundant, much more abundant life. This is the life He has given us: Jesus said I want to lay my life down so that you will have my life.

Meetings: Why No One Comes

Meetings: Why No One Comes

why no one comes to youth group meetings
I'm working with the Director of Children's Ministry to put together a training event for our ministers.  As much as we would love to bring all of our ministers to all the great conferences out there we can't...it's too expensive.  So, instead of bringing them to the conference we are bringing the conference to them.  Basically, we'll gather them on a Saturday morning and have them view a video message from Catalyst, I'll give them a brief follow up message, we'll have community building activities and then send them on their way.  So I sent out the evite to all the ministers, and I got this response from one of the ministers:
"I'm just a crowd minister and I'm not sure I see the purpose of me being there.  Besides 4 hours is a long time to meet."
I was taken aback and immediately my defense mechanism chimed in and I wanted to send an email asking them, "How could they not see the purpose of this gathering?"  But, then I thought about it and considered that maybe we've created a culture where meetings are excessive and boring.  It makes sense and I get the minister's reluctance because we are asking her to give more of her time (especially on a Saturday morning) and if the meeting is going purposeless then why should she go?  An attitude in your organization will build if you have meetings and trainings that:
  • Never End: Is there a perfect length? Depends on why you are meeting. A training meeting, probably can go longer than an hour depending on the content. A prep meeting probably should be brief (15-20mins). All you have to do is determine how long the meeting is going to be and post a start and an end time.  Most times people just want to know how long they are going to have to endure your meeting if it:
  • Never Engage: I hate going to meetings where you just meet for meeting sake.  Again you need an agenda, but you also need a vision.  You need to ask yourself, "What do I want people knowing when they are leaving this meeting?" or "How will my volunteers be better off after we are through this agenda?"  If all you are doing is meeting to go over something that could be communicated in an email, you've wasted their time.   
You want to have meetings and trainings that:
  • Fuel - Meaning refresh your team.  A year of ministry is a long time, find some way to replenish their souls and purpose for serving.
  • Challenge - Make them solve a problem, address an issue or change the way the view ministry.
  • Teach - Volunteers don't go to school for ministry (neither do some of us), if you want them to take ownership, teach them a skill that will enhance their ministry.
I do my best to show that I value my volunteer's time, but I also know that I'm not the best meeting/training coordinator.  So how do you make sure that your meetings fuel, challenge and teach? Please comment.

HOW TO USE FACEBOOK EFFECTIVELY

Facebook is either a stumbling block or a stepping stone!
Have you seen statements like this while you scroll your home page"You are all boring", You are all too quite for my liking". I believe vehemently that you have ran across this aforementioned statements for at least once or twice. I have ran across this words many times, I hear people say this every time I visit the cybercafe. I became inquisitive and wanted to ameliorate this problem. I want people to say" I love facebook". So I decided to write this little note. I believe you will find meaning as you read!

1.Reverence for God

When you are in the cyberspace, you are likely to be exposed to all sorts of information. Some positive, some negative. And as humans we are easily influence by what's embedded in our environ and in the cyberspace. Before I began writing this article, I recalled the story an old sage once told me about pornographic films. He said "In the ancient days, buying pornographic films was an uphill task. You have to plan for it just as thieves plan to rob a bank.You have be very cautious. You have to drive to the extreme side of the road, with your face cap covering your face completely, sneak quietly into the video house, buy and sneak out like a pussy cat" Today, there is nothing to write home about pertaining to pornographic films. Pornographic films had flood the streets and has become a normal thing. Even online as well.  To be an effective facebook user, we have to pay deaf ears and close our minds to certain things. The bible makes us to understand the power of influence, when it says in the book of proverbs "Guard your hearts with all diligence, for out of it flows the issues of life" Let your every view, click, comment be an act of worship to God. We need to close our eyes and minds to certain things. We may say we are grown-ups and have every right to decide on want to do-yes you have, but let me tell you something,negativity have detrimental effects on us. Never be carefree of every information that dominate your minds,  because they gradually bog us down. T.L osborn said" When we sin, something in us dies" Let every of your action be for God!

2.Respect People

In the study of Taxonomy in Biology, we learnt that all humans are are grouped as "Homo Sapiens". The word "Homo" means one, of the same. Truly I agree! We are One. Many people think that, the fact that we are far apart online presents a yardstick for them to behave and relate with people anyhow. Treat anyone you chat with, with some respect, because everyone deserves it-even you.Praise people(but sincerely), say positive things about people, make them feel loved and important. These are the ways of winning and influencing people. Never leave anyone the way you found them, add value, make a difference in the lives of people. Don't take anyone for granted, we are all one and the same. Remember, whatever goes around comes around and also, that one good turn deserves another. Take it a duty upon yourself to see everyone as important and respect them.When you begin to respect people and do all has been said in this article, you will always find meaning out of face book. people will also want to share ideas, plans with you. They will take you seriously and will want to do anything within their reach to reach you.
                                           


3.Chose your friend wisely

I believe you are familiar with the the slogan "Show me your friend, and I will show you whom you are" Your reference group play to a large extent your performance in life. I see no reason why we should pick friends without keeness.  I heard of how a chap lured his friend into scamming, and nemesis caught up with them. I have seen what bad companies have resulted to many people. So I urge to add friends with caution. Recently, I was deleting those friends who had never done more than posting nude pictures on facebook, saying gibberish, canvassing trivial matters. I have vowed to all ways surround myself with people with a positive vision, people who add meaning to my life. Don't be a litter bin where somebody will incessantly dump rubbish into your life. Hear what the holy book say "Bad company corrupt good manners"


4.Join Group and attend events!

I have always enjoyed my time on facebook ever since I cultivated the habit of joining Groups and attending events, it has always made me to keep coming to check what is new. I have learnt variety of things, meet great people who have help me in line with my purpose in life.  Joining a group of your interest poses a wide opportunity for success. Your learning and interaction rates triples. It enable  you to meet with people who have the same mindset like you. People who you can pool forces, ideas in synergy with. Joining a Group is one thing, being an active member is another thing. In any group you join be the best you can be. Be an active member. Visit the Discussion board  and links frequently. Participate actively, share what you know, ask questions and I tell you, if you keep doing these things, You will gradually awaken your potentials. Volunteer for events, make things happen. Read as many articles you find resourceful, download applications. With time you will be amazed at your performance. I will rather call a Group a "University online'" Get out of your comfort zone, join a group, attend an event today!


5.Add Value

The last way I will be discussing with you is Adding Value. Giving away for others to benefit. There is something inside of you that can act as a turning point in the life of another fellow. You may not value it, but it worth more than a million bucks for someone close to you.It is also said that everyone is a walking bag of potentials and gifts. Add value to the lives of people. Mark Zuckerberg became wealthy today because he added value to the lives of billions of people. He rather say"what is in it for them" than say"What is in it for me" He was not self-centered. It is in spending ourselves that we become rich. Mark at the age of 26 became so wealthy that he donated a huge amount of money to the orphanage home. Listen to what he asserted in one of his statements recently,“People wait until late in their career to give back. But why wait when there is so much to be done? With a generation of younger folks who have thrived on the success of their companies, there is a big opportunity for many of us to give back earlier in our lifetime and see the impact of our philanthropic efforts,” Zig Ziglar use to say "You will get all that you want out of life, if you help enough people get want they want" Think of how you can help someone, how you can add value in the life of your friends. West life sang"Somebody wants you" Yes someone really needs your aid. Create events, invite people over, pass information generously then you are you are better facebook user.Thanks and God bless you.

From STIR HOUSE,
Kindly drop your comments
and we will be glad to hear from you.
Remain Bless!

MUCH ADO ABOUT FELA DUROTOYE

THE MAN FELA DUROTOYE


Apart from being a renowned Motivational Speaker and inspiration to many, who is Fela Durotoye?

Would say, Fela Durotoye is a man who is totally sold out to do God's will. He is simply a messenger with a message. Fela is just a Kingdom builder, an Institution builder, a Nation builder and a Generational builder (K.I.N.G)

How did you start being a motivational speaker?

Actually, I didn't start out to become a motivational speaker. Besides, I hardly call myself a motivational speaker. I believe that I am just a man with a message to transform people. When I was in secondary school, I led a musical youth band and it was always amazing to see the way people responded to me, when I came on stage; holding people spell-bound, standing with the microphone and do what I do, and I still see that happen today. So, you wouldn't have expected that I would end up being a speaker. But after I had an encounter with God, my life took a totally different turn for good. In September, 1999, God asked me to set up a place where he can meet with is children as in the days of Adam, so I set up the only Christian Entertainment Center called Eden on campus while I was on my M.Phil program in Ife. In 2001 I started to speak to students in large crowds on campus. That was the point that my public speaking career took off once I had delivered at a graduation ceremony for a department in school then, invitations started rolling in. A lot of people tell me that they are not surprise by what they see today, that they have always known. I didn't.

Was it easy to gain recognition and audience you sought for?

The truth be told, I didn't start out seeking recognition. I was simply doing what I felt I was called to do. one message at a time. But interestingly, the more I did that with all the passion I could muster, the more my audience grew and the more recognition I got. But it wasn't what I set out to achieve from the onset; it was a result of doing what I was doing as excellently as I could do it.

What do you believe are the qualities that make  a good Leader?

For me, leadership is about service and solving problems. A good leader is one who has the heart to serve the people he/she is leading. A good leader must also be able to identify and solve problems for people he/she is called to lead.

Who is pacesetter?
A pacesetter is a unique person, a person who does what others have been doing but with great sense of creativity and innovations. A pacesetter is a person who live a mark, footprint people want to follow.David in his time was a pacesetter by killing the feared, gigantic man called Goliath. Solomon was a pacesetter by asking God for wisdom instead of the things of this earth. Now is you turn to set a pace that people will follow.

Who are men of God?
Men of God (M.O.G) are people who fear, love and obey God's instructions. Men Of God are able people who are willing to go the extra mile, diving the word of truth. People like David whom God called a man after his own heart. People God reveals the mystery of the Kingdom .

Leader are people who humble their selves to serving other, people who pour their hearts, blood, body and soul to see others cope. Leaders are people you see for the equip people with their needs. Leaders are people who reads, learn, study. Leaders are people of influence.

Who are Entrepreneurs?
When you hear people say Aliko Dangote, Mark Zukerberg, Ben Murray Bruce, Praise George what creeps into you mind? Entrepreneurs are people who invest, their time, money, mentality to see how they can create, opportunities for people to work by building firms, and company. Entrepreneurs are people who see a need and solve it. Entrepreneurs are people who do things their own way.!

WHY STIR HOUSE?

STIR UP THAT GIFT!
Imagine for a moment, a man traveling without a destination, I wonder when his next bus stop will ever come for him to alight. Imagine an airplane flying a thousand kilometers above sea level, without a specific direction. That plane is on the verge of CRASHING. Imagine you woke up early in the morning, took your bath, put on a nice attire, and yelled to your father and say "Dad, I am off to nowhere! I am very certain that your daddy will disown you. Sound quite funny right? But is the way many of us still live our lives today-A life without direction.
