Chasing Fantasies Does Not Bring Inner Fulfilment
Many are doing something merely to survive. Meanwhile, God created each person on purpose for a purpose. And if each person discovers one’s purpose and follows suit, chasing fantasies will cease.

Your followership of Jesus may require you to give up some treasured relationships in your life. But the good news is that there are benefits to this sacrifice. Deny yourself and follow Jesus, friend. You’ll benefit from such in ways you’ll not imagine.
Derive your identity from God, not what men say about you. That is the most secure way of living.
In Galatians 6:9, the Bible urges us to continue doing good to people as Christians without growing weary. But why? Because there’s a due season to reap our labour of good works.
Calling a believer a Christian isn’t wrong. However, the Antiochenes, who called believers this name, saw them live in the ways of God. It takes salvation to become a believer, but maturity to live like Jesus. Pursue a deeper intimacy with God, walk in love and never allow what people call you to override who God says you are in your mind.
An heir, according to the scriptures in Galatians 4:7, refers to a person who has acquired or obtained the portion allotted to him. So, in essence, if you’re an heir of God through Christ, then it means you have access to everything the Father has through Jesus.
Don’t underwork yourself. In other words, don’t settle for less just because what’s in your hands to do right now is little. Invest in yourself. Pay the price to acquire more divine knowledge, even if your level is insignificant today. So that when it’s God’s due time to lift you, you’ll not be bankrupt of wisdom to sustain you at that level.
You are Abraham’s seed as a Christian. That means when it comes to blessings, it’s your birthright as God’s child. But if you’re struggling to make ends meet, the problem is not from God, what job you do or even how much you earn. The problem is you – how well vested are you in knowing who God has made you?
Dear minister, serve with God’s strength, which He supplies, not yours. Stop depending on your human strategies to do what He has called you to do. Depend on Him.
Do you want God to consistently show you favour? Then, choose to remain humble. Learn to consciously live a holy life before God no matter where you find yourself.
If you give the devil a chance to have a foothold in your life, I tell you that he won’t spare you. That’s why we’re warned in the scripture not to give him that chance (see Ephesians 4:27).
As a believer, you must understand that we live in an evil age. So, the things you will see when you step out from your home or outside the brethren are most likely to be evil. Sp guard the purity of your mind by submitting it to the teachings of the Word.
