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 ...

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...

As a man, you were not salvaged (saved) to CHASE ladies, sex, fame, power, mansion, companies…etc. The Lord has set you apart to CHASE His plan, his PURPOSE and his VISION for your life. THAT IS THE REAL CHASE! As ladies, you were not salvaged (saved) to CHASE money, sex, fame, mansions, power, marriage…etc. God has ordained you to CHASE His plan, his PURPOSE and his VISION for your life. This is the real CHASE God has ordained you to embrace.  Stop chasing greatness – greatness is who you were born to be. CHASE what will make greatness to CHASE – DIVINE PURPOSE. CHASE your calling. What has the Lord called you to do? CHASE it with all your strength. CHASE your PURPOSE. What is it you have found in the word of God as your PURPOSE for existence? CHASE it with all your strength. CHASE your VISION. What’s the VISION God’s word has birthed in your spirit man? CHASE it with all your strength. CHASE Gods plan for your life. What is the knowledge and direction God’s word has ...

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...

If we must go far with God and in relationship, we must learn to give attention to the “why?” instead of the “what?” The challenge is not the PAIN - the big question you must answer is “why did the PAIN come?” Every PAIN is an assignment and that is the truth. The assignment is to stretch you, improve you or teach you. PAIN is not your enemy. Salvation is a journey of transformation which involves the experience of PAIN and change. The ability for you to change your negative mindset to a Godly mindset will take you through PAIN . Salvation is a platform where you must unlearn in other to learn afresh. This is a platform where you must un-believe in other for you to believe afresh. All these come with and through PAIN . PAIN is part of the tools God uses in building you and preparing you. PAIN is meant to produce maturity in you. When your calling becomes a source of PAIN to you – look unto Jesus. When helping people puts you into trouble - look unto Jesu...

It’s My Spirit dwelling on the inside of you, That is also coming even upon you, So that you will stand up and say: “No! No! No more of these things in my life! I don’t allow it anymore! I’m going for what God has in store. I know what the Word did say, And this is the way! I’m going to have it in my life, right here tonight; The things that are not of God will have to be put to flight. I will speak a word and it will be in due season, right here and right now, And all evil powers tonight have to bow. Everything of God will come into me; With my eyes, the deliverance of God I will see. It is my time; it is my power – As the Word comes from His power – I am standing here at this water, I know I am His child; I am Hi...

Here are seven steps you can take to develop your character. 1. Being the Best in Every Area-What is character? Your character is the degree to which you live your life consistent with high, life-enhancing values. A person who lacks character compromises on higher order values in favor of lower order expedience, or who has no values at all. Your adherence to what you believe to be right and true is the real measure of the person you have become to this moment. 2. Define What “Excellence” Means to You-Let we say that one of your values is "excellence." Your definition of excellence could be, "Excellence means that I set the highest standards for myself in everything I do. I do my very best in every situation and under all circumstances. I constantly strive to be better in my work, and as a person in my relationships. I recognize that excellence is a lifelong journey and I work every day to become better and better in everything I do." 3. Organize Your Actions-W...
