MARITAL DECISION

The best honor you can give yourself is in yourself........knowing and understanding what you are looking for in your future life partner. You should be able to know the kind of thinking pattern, attitude, and manner approach...you can cope with in the future and the ones you can't cope with. Many people have problems in relationships because......they decide things from the point of emotions....and not from the point of what they can cope with or things they can't cope with..... Don't accommodate today....what you can't cope with in marriage. Give yourself that honor. In the place of marital decision making....the first person to consider is your safety and comfort!!! Hate nobody. Don't disrespect anyone...but love yourself and respect your values or priority in life! Don't compromise your values for anyone irrespective of how much you love this lady or man. LOVE IS NOT ENOUGH!!! Don't settle for less. Accommodate the TRUTH. HOPE EXPRESSION celebrates...

Take Responsibility

Take care of your self. Take care of your attitude. Take care of your manner of approach. Be careful of your choice of words whenever you speak to people. Understand the law of timing. Identify the time for jokes. Identify the time for seriousness. Identify the time to be straightforward. Identity the time to be discerning. Your success in life is connected to you recognizing the right timing for what to do and what to avoid. Respect time and understand the timing to every thing surrounding and concerning your life. This is your day...Take care of your self and remember, the first person to blame in any situation is YOURSELF. Take charge and take responsibility for your life, growth, mistakes and pains. HOPE EXPRESSION celebrates you. #Prince_Victor_Matthew #2020_Serve_To_ Love

DON'T BITE THE HAND THAT HAS FED YOU

I want you to learn this....about mentors and Father in the Lord. Many youths are missing it....don't be like them Your mentor or father in the Lord...will not have some things you have....because its not his assignment to help you in that area. Don't ever compare your self with them....measuring your strength with their strength..... They will only have the strength to your weaknesses... Meaning...they are only sent to what you lack. Stop using what you have to determine how you relate with them. When you start growing and learning new things....don't get drunk with knowledge....to the extended of challenging the very person that taught you what you know you. Don't forget where your mentor met you, how he accepted you, how he believed in you....when you didn't look like it.........never!!! Always be aware that people that have no clue about how your mentor and Father in the Lord helped you, invested in you and encouraged you....will soon come to ...

YOUR CALLING is you!!

If you must succeed in life and relationship....you must place respect on the pursuit of discovering and functioning in your Divine CALLING. You don't have to pray for hours and study Bible for hours before you discover your divine calling. Many people says its difficult to discover divine purpose...but its not true. DISCOVERING DIVINE CALLING IS SO SIMPLE THAT PEOPLE IGNORE AND DESPISE IT EVEN WHEN THEY WALK PASS IT. Your divine calling is hidden in your PASSION. Your PASSION is divided into two session.....what you hate the most...because its unhealthy and what you love the most because its healthy. Your divine calling is your passion and your passion is YOU. Give attention to your self....your moods, and interest...with the pursuit to understand why you like what you like....why you dislike what you dislike and how it can glorify God. Any thing you have passion doing and it glorifies Jesus....is your divine CALLING. It can be in terms of technology, government, education...

HELP With Wisdom

The worst thing on earth is when you have people that do not understand what God is doing in your life and where God is taking you to in life....TRYING TO HELP YOU. It's so tough...irrespective of their good intentions and plans for you....they will become the major obstacles to you. Every single thing they think and do to you as a show of concern and help will be the major thing that will be frustrating you. YOU DONT HAVE THE RIGHT TO HELP ANY BODY... IF YOU ARE NOT LED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT. YOU DONT HAVE THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE HOW TO HELP ANY BODY...YOU MUST DEPEND ON THE LEADING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. The fact that you have good intentions and plans for some one or towards some one does not mean it will actually help them. Peter with Good intention  rebuked Jesus when he spoke about his death. Peter out of good intentions cut off the ear of the servant of the high priest that came to arrest Jesus. As passionate and sincere it might has looked...if Jesus kept silent..it could have...

LOVE IN CHAINS- PART 2

God allowed every thing that has happened to happen so that He can save you from the situation. Comfort was almost taking you away from your personal relationship with God so the comfort has to go in order for God to save you from your comfort zone. God allowed the opportunity to fail and He made sure the relationship didn’t work out because God has seen the future and He knows if he permits it – that will be a great destruction awaiting to happen.  Here you are, you are angry that what you wanted did not go through but one thing you did not know is – God withheld what you wanted from you because He has seen the future – what you wanted was destruction awaiting to happen.  Did he or she say it’s over? Did he or she call off the engagement? Did you miss that opportunity? Praise God! You have no idea of the future stress God just delivered you from – God knew this man or lady or the opportunity will end up stressing you and stopping you from fulfilling purpose. God...

Love is Chains - Part 1

John 11:1 - 44 We live in a generation that is full of pain, regrets and hurts. We live in a time where people have given up on loving, trusting and dreaming because of their experiences have put them in CHAINS. We live in a generation that think LOVE is a feeling forgetting that LOVE is their personality. What is LOVE? LOVE is a living, a personality, and a lifestyle that has His own desires. LOVE is the reality of the person of God. You have being created in the Image of LOVE, which makes you the person of LOVE (LOVE is you). LOVE is not an experience but an experience. LOVE is not a feeling yet you can feel it. LOVE is not what people give to you, it is who you have being created to be – LOVE is you.  LOVE is not a relationship but every relationship needs LOVE for sustenance. LOVE is relational but you must define her. LOVE is not what you describe, LOVE is a lifestyle you express (LOVE is you).  LOVE is not something you search for neither is it far away f...

The CHASE (Redefining Your Priority) - Part 1

You are welcome to STRETCH YOUTH SUMMIT. In this month of September, we shall be looking into a topic the HOLY SPIRIT has instructed me to teach through His Grace. Last Month (August), we looked into the issue of ‘THE YELLOW CARD’ and the Lord was able to heal hurting hearts, and deal with certain issues we’ve over looked. Praise God! Today’s lecture is a continuation of last month seminar and if you were not around for the last seminar, kindly visit our blog hopeexpresionforum.blogspot.com and search for “THE YELLOW CARD” and read.  Let’s go into the business of the day and may the HOLY SPIRIT possess your heart with the truth of his word as we start in Jesus Name – Amen. Our Text is taken from Acts 9:1 – 6 What is the CHASE? The CHASE is a lifestyle and a culture of some one channeling all efforts towards achieving a defined goal. It’s a conscious decision you make towards achieving a goal defined. Every body is chasing some thing either kno...

How far should I go to fit in?

Do you feel pressure to change who you are so you will be accepted? Have you ever tried to be someone else just to fit in with a group of people? Have you ever tried to do something impressive, just for the sake of others’ approval? I'm sure many of us would probably say 'yes' to at least one of these questions. But why do we do it? Sometimes it's simply because we feel the need to fit in and be accepted. This is a struggle faced by both Christians and non-Christians. The dangers of trying to fit in Some may ask, “ Is it okay for a Christian to become friends with a non-Christian?” The answer is yes. It is important to have fellow Christians in your life, but that does not mean you should limit your friendships to only Christians. Sometimes becoming friends with a non...

Understanding Your Place in this World

Broke People

The Christian life is not about finding safety and comfort. Many Christians are “generational believers,” as they have grown up in a Christian home. That is their reality, but there is a bigger reality. Sometimes we can easily forget there’s a hurting world out there. We drive through it on the way to church, or on the way to work. But at the end of the day, we don’t come to terms with the vast brokenness that surrounds us. Serving and Saving: The Way of Christ and His Church Sometimes the hurting make their way into the pews and, by grace and through faith, respond to the good news of salvation. But all too often, the only connections Christians have with broken people are made outside of church. That’s why I love to hear a pastor say, “You know, we’re going to be a church that cares about the hurting and serves those in need, showing the love of Christ to the lost.” The true test of our maturity is not measured in how much we leave behind, but how much we love. ...

‘I Am’ Confessions

I am washed in the blood of Jesus. I am cleansed. I am forgiven all my sins. I am redeemed. I am free from condemnation. I am a disciple of Jesus Christ. I am set free. I am crucified with Christ.

God Encounter For Tonight

The Word flowing from My power Is even present here, this very hour. By My Spirit it is coming to you, To bring you tonight, a divine breakthrough. Everything that is evil, and of the night, Will be driven out of your life by the power of the light.

Advice for God's people

God's plan and purpose for your life matters to me too. Your vision in Christ is also important to me. Salvation is not about Hope Xpression forum alone. Salvation is about you & me in Christ. This is not my vision neither your own vision. God's vision lives in us all. Let's lay our differences aside. Christ has called us into one faith, one baptism, & one spirit- Christ. Value the people that supports God's vision in you & value God's vision in their own lives too. You can't stand alone, teamwork is needed. Their vision has a role to play in the vision in you & the vision in you has a role to play in the vision in them. Stop manipulating people because they will surely know & you will loose their trust. Be truthful, be sincere & be honest. Don't use people, please, help people to be useful through the vision in you. Change the way you think. Be more accountable & responsible to God.
