Everyone has got a Potential to Succeed beyond limits.



Sometimes many of us refuse to take ourselves beyond that limitation to achieve more. Everone wouldn't occupy the top positions but everyone would not also remain at the bottom. No man was created to be the least in the scheme of things. Why do we have our unique gifts and talents?  Why do we have so much potentials yet we chose to remain mediocres?  It's time to move up the ladder! One step at a time... and success is reached. Everyone is got his trails and challenges unique to his/her person and circumstances. You don't settle for less just because you are faced with a trail. You keep moving, keep pushing until victory is yours. Until you face the storm, it can never be a story and the Beauty of such story is the glory...  You can beat the odds!  You can break the limitations!  If only you would add a little more faith; your fate will be changed for the best..  DARE TO ACHIEVE MORE!! 

BARRISTER JAMES OCHOLI - A MAN WHO STOOD TALL.

What a loss!  How do we even begin to face this reality? You stood tall in the midst of challenges and trials; You faced mockery and scorn yet you never walked out on God, neither did you give up on him.  Yes you had your victory though short-lived,  but we still thank God for the impart you made. I might not have known you personally, but i was greatly encouraged by your story. I chose to dedicate this piece to you that wherever and whenever your name is being mentioned, let it be known that you stood tall even in death. Rest In Peace  Barrister James Ocholi, your wife and son.  May God grant your souls eternal rests and give the family you left behind the grace to bear this painful loss.

GOD'S CALL DEMANDS HUMILITY


Often times, people who receive a call from God feel the call is to demote, humiliate or reduce
them. Although this is not true, on the surface, it may look that way. In Philippians 2:5-11, when
Jesus received a divine call, He had to descend from being God to becoming a man. He became a servant who was totally sold out to His Father’s will. In the school of disciples of the ministry I oversee, we learn that Jesus Christ took seven steps downwards before God raised Him seven steps upwards. As far as God is concerned, the
way up first and foremost is the way down. If you want to go up, you must first be ready to go down. No matter how ‘high’ you are when you receive God’s call, if you are not prepared to go down, you are not yet ready for divine promotion. “Humble
yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.” James 4:10 God expects you to humble yourself. It is not
something somebody else will do for you. If you fail to do this, and if God truly loves you, He may have to do it for you. When He decides to do what you were meant to do, it may be tougher; so simply follow the easy way by doing it yourself. Beloved, humble yourself! Each time you humble yourself, you create space above you for God to fill. He does not need you to tell Him how to lift you up. He knows exactly what to do because He has already figured it out even before you were born. Just do your part. How? Give up your high looks and accept His opinion of you. Have a change of focus. Drop that bloated view of yourself and accept what He says you are. Stop seeing yourself as being better than your brother because of the comparative advantage your educational qualification or official position has given you over him. Be ready to accept any assignment. In fact, be prepared to take assignments that appear
mean, belittling and ridiculous in comparison with what you think you are capable of. Esteem others better than yourself – that is, focus on the strengths of others and amplify them in your mind.
Be ready to give up anything for Jesus. Pick out five people that are not as privileged as you. Take time to study them, identify the virtues in them, meet them and commend them for those virtues.
