THE CHAMPIONS SERIES 81 TOPIC: AIM FOR RESPECT AND HONOR

 


“A good name is better than precious ointment; and the day of death than the day of one’s birth.” Ecc7:1 Nkjv

Anyone who wants to build a lasting success must master the act of self-respect and creating positive track record.

Today the pursuit of honour and respect is fast becoming a thing of the past, because what we are after is creating wealth and pursuing fame.

True influence and wealth are built through honour and integrity.

“Respect is reciprocal” this is a true saying, you cannot earn respect when you are worthy of it. Respect comes to those who know how to give it and how to live it.



“There are so many honourable men and women by title, with true honourable men and women missing in action”

Honour is not obtained by position or office, no!

It is a function of your lifestyle and character. It is something you build over time.

Why do you respect those you hold in high esteem?

Is it because of their riches, cars or houses?

Why is it that there are people in society who are very rich, but nobody takes them seriously?

Why do you think there are famous people who are ridiculed and shunned?

Why is it that some elderly persons are disrespected without apology?

Respect and Honor are not earned by age, nor riches, it is not earned by educational status or political office. These two phenomena are earned by impeccable demonstration of character, integrity and sacrifice.

The world will always respect men who sacrifice themselves to make the world a better place, the world will always honour a man of integrity it’s only a matter of time, and the world celebrates a man of character.

Never settle for less than the best, live a respectable life, don’t pursue money and lose your integrity, don’t pursue money and be a laughing stock or topic of trivia discussions.

 

Be that guy or lady that when people call your name it will be to praise you or advise others to be like you.

 

 QUOTE OF THE DAY:

“Live every day knowing that one day you will be no more or put every day as if it is your last?”

THE CHAMPIONS SERIES 80 TOPIC: WHAT DO YOU LIVE FOR?

    This is a question that always pops up in my mind whenever I want to embark on any project or when I want to make a major decision in my life. The answer to this question has shaped my life, it has helped me to tailor and pattern my thoughts and rise above greed, selfishness, idleness and mediocrity.  Let me ask you this same question what are you living for?  If you are yet to answer this question, it is pertinent you do, because it will shape the way you see the world.  "We are all in the world, but we see it from a different angle." Every time I read about my Lord Jesus I always fascinated because He is a typical example of one who answered this question and lived and died for a world that is not worthy of Him. He lived for just 33years but His impact transcends generations.  Again I ask you; what are you living for or what do you live for? No one is a mistake, no matter you state, whether you're whole or handicap you are not a mistak...

DIVINE INVESTMENT Man is God's investment upon the earth, the earth, He made man cultivate, decorate and make the world inhabitable for all creation. Man in God's eyes is a cultivator and a preserver, but over years’ man has lost touch of this dimension in God, instead of cultivating and preserving, he is destroying. For example, the inventions of men are putting the world on a verge of extinction, today we hear of depletion of the Ozone layer, aberrations created by science, such as turning men into women and women into men. The world has gone gaga...  what are doing about it? or what are doing to make a positive change? you're God's solution to the earth. 2....
