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?”

Written Clarkson O. Adebayo

THE CHAMPIONS SERIES, "THE MAN" TOPIC: DYING EMPTY

Everyone exists, but not everyone truly lives. Myles Munroe was right when he said that “the grave is the richest place on earth.” _ Humanity has seen thousands and thousands of people since inception, but what preserves the memory of those we remember today is basically what they did while they were alive. “Everybody will die, but maybe not everybody would have truly lived before dying.” Dying empty is not just an event. It is a culmination of a series of events hinged on intentional living. To die empty, we cannot neglect the question of purpose. Man is a being of purpose. He was created with an intention. In a bid to die empty, we must pay close attention to the "3Ds of purpose". Discovering Purpose. Developing Purpose. Deploying Purpose. PURPOSE DISCOVERY. Until we have discovered the purpose for living, dying empty will be mere and empty talk. I submit to you, that God sent you her...

THE CHAMPIONS SERIES (51) "THE MAN"

THE MAN “A great man isn’t afraid to do what is right, no matter what.” The male man is a being created in the image of God and after His likeness, he is well decorated by God to function like Him and act like Him. God had a perfect plan for the male man, because he is the crown of God’s creation. The fall of man in the garden of Eden changed the original plan of God, nevertheless He did not give up on man God created man to have dominion over all creation, and saddled him with enormous responsibility which includes creating value upon the earth, preserving and nurturing all of creation into God’s perfect will. The world is shaped by the decisions of men, from time immemorial the specie called man, has been associated with a lot of things that are not approved by God, things that have limited the original purpose of God for the male man. Such things go against the original order of God. Sin is transgression of God’s law, man in both present and past dispensations have bee...
