Diseases like chicken pox, tuberculosis are infectious but thank God, it is not only diseases that are contagious, but love also.
Love can be spread to heal and save rather than to kill like diseases.
Love is a healing balm, a form of physical therapy that if administered, many live would be saved. Love can be demonstrated in many ways but the greatest of it is in giving. Giving is so profound that you can give without loving but you cannot love without giving. Today is boxing day; not a day to fight everybody around you but to show love to other. Give to the needy and help the helpless.
Giving is the central theme of love. Even God demonstrated His love through giving; He sent His only begotten son, Jesus Christ, to take away the sin of the world so that we will not perish. The deeper you love, the costlier the gift you give. When people complain that no one loves them, I let them know that they too need to show love to people because the law that guides love is reciprocity. It is what you sow that you will reap. The seed you refuse to sow will not produce the harvest you need.
As the year is running to an end, list out a few people that are very important to you. Everyone is important but not everyone is important to you. List out the ones that have touched and are still touching your life and pray for then fervently. Pray for then to have a major breakthrough in the coming year and that no misfortune should befall them.
However, prayer only is not enough, also send them gifts. There is no better time than now to show love to those that are dear to you.

Poverty
Agree or refuse to remain poor. Been born from poor background is not enough for you to live in abject poverty. Your background must not keep you permanently on the ground of poverty. Know that no one is born poor, every one in life is born the same; from the king on the throne, the president in the president villa to the beggar on the street. Every one was conceived of woman for nine months and delivered the usual way. No one’s blood has poverty gene. What is different however is our circumstances of birth; the environment and the parentage.
The good news therefore is; you can work to change your circumstances and situation in life, no condition is permanent. I have seen those born into affluence, which mismanage the wealth and became poor and I have seen those born into little or nothing but with sheer determination, hard work and divine assistances change the course of their history. Poverty is not genetic, it is in the mind.
To change your course history, you must hate the status quo. Until you hate the present status the ‘new you’ will not emerge. If you love the way you are, the things you do, how you do them and the result you get you have automatically shut the door against improvement. To hate the status quo is to say “I am more than this”. Know that the enemy of best is good, if you keep thinking and saying this is good enough, then your best will not emerge. While you should be happy whit what you have, you must not be satisfied the way you are. Do something about your situation.

Understand who you are
Every human being is special and has a unique feature. Our difference is not just physical but much deeper than that. Much of the problem we have originated from our personalities. So many things combined to make us who we are. Prominent among them is parental connection; because we took a lot from our parents. The immediate environment during the formative years and the early association in our junior and high school have profound impact on what we grow up to become. If you really think deep, you will discover that you have been influenced in many ways.
Every one of us is a proud of the way we were brought upon and the people we grew up with. The way you dress, talk, your approach to things and your attitude generally are all product of certain people that had one way or the other impacted your life. Many people erroneously think that the solution to their live problems will come from outside of them. Sometimes that may be, but largely, solutions to our problems will come from within.
Analyze yourself.

Original or Duplicate
You are unique being, created by God to fulfill a special purpose. No one in life is exactly like you, no one talks like you, no one thinks exactly like you, no one acts like you and no one do things like you. You are in your own class despite the fact that there are billions of people on earth. Do you know that two person’s finger prints the same? It is so amazing. Every human being is peculiarly different from all others. That is, you are original and not a photocopy and you are not a prototype; so stop behaving like one.
The tragedy of life is that, too many people have not discover their uniqueness and until one discovers his/her identity, he/she may remain a nonentity. The question to ask is; what is identity? It is knowing who you are and your possibilities. Each person has something and has potentials for performance in one area of life or the other. Your originality will show more in the area of your natural endowments and will be better enhanced with training.
There are three keys to unlock your originality:
You must first discover your area of grace. Since God did not create anyone for disgrace, He gave grace to each person in life to fulfill purpose. Your area of grace is not something anyone can discover for you. People can suggest it to you or recognize it in you, you will have to do the discovery.
Develop yourself and your gift. Another word for that is training. Do not be without a profession but train only in the area of your natural gift. That is the only way to become genius.
Development is also important. Release what is in you; locate a platform of performance. Somebody needs what you have and will be willing to pay you handsomely for it. This year still owes you a lot of thing; it wills surly deliver it in Jesus name. Amen.

Give and Take
Almost everyone prays to God for one things or the other every time at everywhere. Many will embark on fasting and other religions activities as a way of getting God’s attention of grant their desires on time. Though, I have nothing against such efforts but you should know God is not difficult or far away from you. If you can grant Him your attention you will surely get it.
Life is joint venture between men and God: we are in a partnership with our maker. He is the principal while men are the subordinates. If you are dealing with senior colleagues or principal partners, you must carry out your obligation first before expecting him/her to do the final exercise. If you can give your God total devotion, attention and commitment he will grant you your hearth desired with speed. Many people know how to request without finding how and what to give, that is the reason why they are not getting what they request for.
God need those He will send to feed the poor, cloth the naked, help the weak, house the homeless, care orphan the aged. He has needs of those that will teach others the truth for them to change to living righteously and Godly. Let God use you for he will not come down to carry out any of these functions but does them through human agents. That is, those that will make themselves available for his use, be one of them by making yourself available for Him. Choose to do all you can to touch the lives around you and God will not keep quiet on your matter.
Expect a change in your situation; once you make yourself God’s own person to meet people’s needs, you needs shall be automatically met. God will visit you with blessing today.

YOU ARE EMPTY VESSELS
When God put a seed inside you, he creates need for that seed God put it there because there is already a need.
- The people around you are all empty vessels for the Unique ability in you
- As long as there are human beings, there will always be empty vessels for us to pour our oil into.
- You need to develop the ability to recognize empty vessels.
- Ability to recognize opportunity makes a great difference between looser and winner.
- Be willing to take the products and services to those who need them.
- There are empty vessels waiting to receive the unique abilities God has invested in your life.
- Desire to create wealth by meeting people’s needs.
- There is no limitation to your expansion except the ones you create for your self.
- Dream big; expect great things and attempt great thins. Do not be a local champion.
- You will find empty vessels not only in your locality but also in your nation and the world.
- Aspire to be the best in your field. Put a shine on someone’s face. The diligent will stand before the kings not before ordinary men.
- “Set aside those that were full”
Know when to expand, when to grow beyond your last breakthrough.
- Do not over celebrate your last success forever.
- Remember that the situation that favors your breakthrough will not remain the same forever, sharing a testimony for 5 years.
- Adapt to change, get new ideas, and cover new territories.
- When you have exhausted the possibilities in your opportunity, move on to the next breakthrough.
Make that move 2 King 4:5.
- The widow in our story already heard the miracle word form the prophet. The miracle remained only a promise until she acted.
- God will multiply our seeds. But it is our responsibility to sow.
- There are no substances for hard work in the school of success.
- The world only moves for the man who moves himself.
- God’s promise is to prosper in whatever you lay your hands.
Ensure that your hands are truly laid on something.
- Prayer is absolutely necessary; there is no amount of prayer that can substitute for work.
-
Protect your dream. 2 king 4:4.
- Prophet Elisaha told the widow to shut the door.
God want the miracles process kept away from people.
- To pour from small jar several large drum would make her appear crazy. Death of her husband is running her insane.
- When God gives you breakthrough ideas, there will always be people around who will not see what you are seeing.
- Your words will sound ridiculous and your action will look foolish to them.
- Let us see example of Jesus in Mark 5 in Jairus home.
- Doubter and skeptics will usually not witness miracles; their presence hinders the flow of the power of God keep such people out of your life.
Dreams are the raw material God will use to fashion your destiny,
BUT beware of dream snatchers, dream killers, dreamer killers, your impending success will expose some people’s failure or threatened their security.
- Gen 37:8. Joseph brother were not thinking for him, they were thinking for themselves.
- Joseph intelligent will make them look unintelligent.
- Associate those who will celebrate you not cremate your dream, discourage you only to pursuit your idea later.
- To succeed, pray as if you everything depends on prayer and work as if everything depend on works.
- Prayer without corresponding action led to frustration. Be action oriented executive.
- We have potential for wealth in us; we have creativity waiting to find expression. We have to release this potential through work.
- Do not sing “standing on the promises” when all what you are doing is “Sitting on the promises”.
- What is it you keep thinking of doing? Move now.
- Through hard work you develop you skills. No one is ready to pay for your unique qualities in the raw forms.
- Refine them to international standards through hard work. Give that gift commercial value.
- There are many gifted people who are poor and frustrated because they are not willing to work hard to develop the gift.
- Through hard work, we cultivate excellence. Excellence gives us the winning edge.
- Do not wait for ideal situation, take a step Now. For more click here.

Besides helping you to receive and clear your cheques, they also give you a personalized US address with which you can use for your registrations with the various affiliate networks you work with.
