Apply Your Heart to Instruction
When it comes to instruction, Solomon says in Proverbs 23:12 that, don’t listen with your ears but your heart. But why? Because you easily forget what you hear but retain what you keep in your heart for long.
Do Not Wear Yourself to Get Rich
There are better ways of becoming wealthy without needing to wear yourself out. Go to God in prayer and let Him show you what to do with your money for Him to bless it.
The Borrower Is Servant to the Lender
It’s God’s desire for you to prosper, so much so that you’ll lend to others and not borrow (see Deuteronomy 28:12). Stop overspending money you don’t earn, else you’ll keep borrowing from people to buy things you can’t afford, but you want.
Build Christ-Like Systems in Your Family
You shouldn’t give yourself to everything and everybody while leaving your family aside. Sometimes, withdraw from all things that take your time to spend quality time thinking about making Christ known in your family‘s daily activities.

How to Live Condemnation-Free in Christ
One wise man said, “You’ll never get in sin what you got into sin to get.” Mmm! That is an intriguing truth there.

The best way to live condemnation-free in Christ is to walk according to the Spirit
Victory Is Won Through Many Advisors
Solomon, the wisest man who ever lived on this Earth, said that when it comes to war (finding solutions to problems), you need guidance.

The Heavy Sacrifice a Child of God Must Make to Reap Eternal Benefits
Everybody has dreams. But let me tell you that your dream may be nothing compared to what God has purposed for you to accomplish. Stick to following God’s ways. There’s joy in following Jesus. So don’t give up!
You’ll Thrive When You Walk in Obedience
Complaining that your work, finance, relationships, education, business, or why any area of your life is in shambles doesn’t solve any problem. It is hearing God about that situation that changes everything. Will you go and pray about that situation, hear God and follow His Word, or you’ll keep complaining?
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.
Deny Yourself and Follow Jesus
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.
