BEWARE OF TIME WASTERS

I was in a relationship for over a year, the truth is, I knew the end of that relationship from the beginning, I knew I was wasting time but I didn’t want to leave because I was ‘In love’. The relationship ended in a bitter way, not because I was not a good girl friend but because he was not meant for me and because his lifestyle didn’t go with mine.
The day I had an interview with Dayo Adeneye a.k.a, D1, co-owner of Primetime Entertainment was the day I knew he doesn’t like wasting time, everything went smoothly and I didn’t spend so much time interviewing him. He kept on saying, ‘Let us not waste time on this’.
My mother is a woman of God, she goes out on ministrations,you can’t call her today and tell her you want her to speak in an event tomorrow or the day after, you have to tell her a week or weeks before because she always have her tomorrow arranged today, she plans ahead and she uses her time well, she doesn’t allow anyone to waste her time.
I wrote an article on how to value your time, for those who haven’t read it, you can go ahead and do so.
One big problem affecting us Nigerians is that we really don’t know how to use our time, some of us even allow people to waste our time for us. We have so many time wasters around us that it becomes so hard for us personally to manage our time.
Time wasters do not see anything wrong In wasting your time because that is how they waste theirs, other time wasters are selfish, they don’t waste their own time but they can gladly waste yours, flee from them.
We are in a generation where how you use your time determines how you will succeed. I don’t see anything wrong in not having fun, fun is good but when your ‘Friends’ keep telling you ‘Let’s go have fun’ everyday or every time is what I am scared about. You should run away from those friends because they want to drag you to the pit. I see so many youths these days spending all their days on social networks particularly Twitter, I am not saying being on social networks is a bad thing, I am saying spending all your time on it without doing anything tangible is a bad thing. It is okay to go on social networks, it is okay to be trendy but when the ‘Trend’ becomes a time waster, its either you run away or reduce associating yourself with it/them. The fact that something is current doesn’t make it correct and the fact that something is trendy doesn’t mean it is right. Your time is in your hands, no one will be there to help you explain how you used your time, you are the driver of your own vehicle, throw away everybody wasting your time or trying to do so. Throw away relationships that are going nowhere, throw away social networks that are dragging you to the pit.

The way you handle your time today determines the impact you will make in all the areas of your life tomorrow. You are accountable for your time.
Stop or reduce the way you relate with time wasters, they are everywhere and they kill destinies directly or indirectly.
Stop killing your destiny
Eject time wasters from your life
You are your own time-keeper
Keep your time well.

                          It’s In You.

THE PERSON YOU MUST NOT MISS.

 THE PERSON YOU MUST NOT MISS.- DR D.K OLUKOYA

When you miss the person you are supposed to meet in life anything can happen to you as the enemy is moving about like a roaring Lion looking for whom to devour. Some of the reasons for this article are as follows because they have missed the person they were supposed to meet in life.
 Psalm 37: 23 says, "The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, and He delighteth in his way".

There are two kinds of person you should meet in your life.
The first person you must not miss is God. You cannot meet Him and your life will remain the same. Until you meet Him you have met nobody. He is the One that created you and knows you more than any person. Many people even Christians have not really met Him, because when you encounter Him, people around you will instantly notice a change in you. Many great men of God in the Bible like Jacob, Moses and Paul were completely and instantly changed after meeting with Him. People who saw you before the encounter will now say what happened to you. I pray that God will arrest you, put you in a corner where you cannot escape. I pray that you will encounter God. There are two things that are important in the life of a shepherd, the rod and his shoes The rod to put sheep back into line and to lead by the way they should go. He needs a shoe because of the terrain to protect the feet.

The second person you must not miss in life is human being. In life you meet four kinds of people. They are as follows:

1. Those who add to your life
2. Those who subtract from your life. There are some women whose life would have been better off had they not met their husbands who became a deficit and burden to their lives
3. Those who leave you the way they find you. Never add or deduct from your life.
4. Those who waste your life. They are called wasters.

The people you meet and the people you did not meet in life chart the course of your life. When I was to travel abroad for my post graduate studies I met a clerk who changed the course of my life. I got to know about the scholarship for my doctorate degree two months after the closing date for submission of completed application from I completed my application form, prayed as we were taught to pray some serious prayers. I took it to the respective office for submission. I was told the closing date was two months ago. Whilst the discussion about late submission was going on, a clerk in the same office came by, decided to try if there is anything he could do by speaking to their boss. He went to see their boss with my application form for scholarship, came back to inform me it has been accepted.
 
The day I met that clerk my life changed forever. In the journey of life destiny allows some people to cross your path to catapult you to a prepared ordained place but if you miss that person, you crawl unknown to your own grave. In addition there are blocker spirits who can block you from meeting your ordained helpers. The enemy can arrange for you to marry the wrong person and have the wrong spouse. That is why when we counsel people who want to marry to seek the face of the Lord for their divine ordained husband or wife.
 
What some people call friends are their enemies. They are eating and revealing their secrets to their enemies. An angel might come to you in rags and you chase him away. That is why the Bible said, some people entertain angels unawares. Like wise you can insult an angel. The enemy can manipulate somebody into someone's life in order to waste that life. The day you meet some people could be your day of blessing or your day of woe. Also the day you meet some people could be a day of eternal joy. There are situations where people that are antagonising you, could be a divine arrangement to lead you to your path of break-through in your life. In the story of Joseph, his encounter with Potiphar's wife (read Genesis chapter 39) eventually gave him the chance to interpret Pharaoh's dream which made him to become the Prime Minister in the land of Egypt.
 
In the Book of Luke chapter 22 verses 10-11 say, "And He said unto them. Behold when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water: follow him into the house he entereth in. And ye shall say unto the good man of the house. The Master saith unto thee, where is the guest chamber, where I shall eat the Passover with my disciples?
The highlight of the above scripture is the man with a pitcher or jar of water. The disciples were on a mission and the man with a pitcher was their divine pointer to their mission accomplish. The man with the pitcher never knew that he was a sign leading them to their desired location. What would have happened if the disciples have missed the man with the pitcher? My dear reader, this is the situation many people find themselves in at the present moment. Many people have lost their divine sign post in life and as a result are roaming around aimlessly in life. Imagine what would have happened if the disciples have argued with the man with the jar. Please, pray this prayer before you continue your reading:
My Father, if I have missed the person with my divine jar, O Lord bring him back, in Jesus name.
 
The question you have to ask yourself is, have I missed the person with my divine jar? Whether you answer yes or no, you need to pray.
 
Prayer is the only solution.
 
God is so merciful and full of compassion that when you call on Him He is more than able to bring back to you the person with your divine jar. It is guaranteed and sealed that when you call on God, He would answer you, because He said, I wish above all things that thou may prosper here on earth in anything you do or any project you embark on and be in good health.

My family and I need good health and I suppose every body. But before you can be a partaker in God's assured promise, you need to surrender your life to Jesus Christ. In the journey of life you cannot make it without JESUS. The Bible tells us that He is the way, the truth and the life. When you have Him on your side you have everything. There is no time to waste, you have nothing to loose. On the branches page, you will find the nearest branch of Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries to you or any Bible believing spirit filled Church. You can give us a call and someone will be able to help you. Surrender your life to Jesus and then the prayer below will profit you more. God bless you as you obey the voice of Holy Spirit urging you to surrender.
Pray this prayer:
 Every man or woman ordained to promote my life manifest in the name of Jesus.

A FAILURE IS OUR SUG PRESIDENT

 He's the Students' Union President of MAPOLY,  Ogbeni akande segun a.k.a GLORIOUS.

Today makes it 206days. Since glorious has been forced on us as president of students' union. As a matter fact, both the freshers and stallites have been following this dispensation, even a blind man can tel us that it has been failure all through.

1)WELFARISM: It's been high rate ailing health as a result of congested classrooms and the union president has not been able to agitate. Lose of pregnancies as ladies have continued to stand in the sun to pay and do things. Thank God for intervention of the sch mgt. Our unchilled pure water is still sold at higher rate despite the fact that we ay host to a pure water factory.

No first aid box in each departments even if they are they are not working properly.

It is even on records that a student frm his dept who was mistakenly picked by security was only gotten from their grasps and left alone in his own pool of blood at the ICT center. Remember that day.

Ever since he emerges, he has not even thought of meeting some NGOs to come to the school and have free test and seminars on health,sex education.yet we claim to have a union leader. What a set of mauraders and thieves!

2) UNIONISM: Mapoly is the only school in ogun state where we don't enjoy unionism because the union president has lost focus. He and his excos only care about themselves and not the interest of the entire mapaites. As a union leader, your aim is to fight for the right of students and restore the glory of unionism that our fathers enjoyed during their time in school; reverse is the case here students cannot excercise their franchise or even fight for what they deserve. What a shame!


3) HARRASSMENT: The so called groups intimidate our students because of the carefree attitudes of the union leader,as the union leader you have the right to summon any students' body that may want to victimize other students under whatsoever guise. Rather, he prefers to use these people against the students which is not supposed to be. When there is a minor issue, you should be able to settle with peace and not informing the security men. You have continued to get our colleagues humiliated.

4) TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM: We are not saying you should go and buy buses bt the ones should be strategically worked on. I haven't really seen a clearly stated and defined strategy to curb the scourge. Am not disappointed anyway; What do u expect of a man that can not manage a sum of. 17million naira??? How does he want to think on how to move the institution forward?

5) CAMPUS POLITICS: As a union president, there is a need for u to strike balance despite the political differences on campus. Campus politics is  one main reason why glorious has failed today. President Muhammadu Buhari said; "I am for everybody and I am for nobody". As a union leader, you have to let your administration be opened to parties. Takinq a good look at the SRA today, it is the same set of people whom you handpicked coz u had gone against the provision of constitution which makes all of you to sleep. You didn't allow Mapaites choose for themselves, you chose for them; you imposed on them and you want them to love you. Things aint done that way as a president who want to succed.

Lest I forget, you are yet to clear the embezzlement allegations against you. #Hmmmm... We are waiting ooo

I hope the fore fathers of unionism will find a space in their hearts to forgive you because you have brought shame to the students struggle and institution through ur ways of doing things.

I will stop here for now; retrace ur steps now and be responsible to us. failure to do so, more to come....
