No outcome happens by chance. - Pastor Timothy Benedict.
Few decades ago, Nigeria, China and India were under British colony cum tutelage. The British came to these countries with RELIGION, LANGUAGE AND TECHNOLOGY. At the end of their tenure-at independence, China thanked the British and collected their industrial technology while leaving their language and religion for them. India also thanked the British and collected their Medical technology while leaving their language and religion for them. Nigeria also thanked the British and collected their language and religion while leaving their technology for them. Today, India is a major exporter of medicine as well as cornering a huge foreign exchange through medical tourism. China is today a manufacturing hub and a major exporter of technology thereby creating a huge employment and eliminating poverty amongst its citizens. Nigeria on the other hand is today the world's highest exporter of religion but languishing in throat choking poverty.
LESSONS:
1. No outcome happens by chance. You will ultimately become what you actively or passively assimilate.
2. Religion does not cure poverty, knowledge does.
3. God does not sponsor irresponsibility, He rewards deliberate labour.
4. Luck does not exist in life. Those who are lucky are those who Labor Under Correct Knowledge (LUCK).
5. The future you don't create will not be there for you.
6. Those who refuse to pay attention to the principles of life today will pay with regression, suppression and recession tomorrow.
7. You are not where you are because of what you lack, you are where you are because of who you are and what you do.
8. You can only become traceable where you become knowledgeable.
9. God did not give man religion. Religion was the invention of man to seek a God that is not missing, hence its lack of transformative capability. Its best is morality. While Christianity is a loving God seeking a real relationship with man based on the knowledge of who He is, so He can transmit spirituality, authority and audacity.
10. Those who hold on to religion at the expense of knowledge may find it difficult to practice their religion when the knowledgeable becomes irreligious.
Counsel.
1. Develop a relationship with God in prayer, word study and fasting. That is spirituality.
2. Develop your mind through deliberate acquisition of relevant knowledge. That is mentality.
3. Take care of your body through exercise and good nutrition.
GOD IS A GOD OF BALANCE:
Someone shout I hear!
