R.I.P Nelson Mandela

The prince of African leaders is gone.
That is what I choose to call him.
It's sad, but we can only hope he is in a better place. He should be in a better place, after all he exemplified love. Love lifted up this great man and leader. Forgiveness, rooted in love is part of what lifted this man who is an asset to Africa and the entire world head and shoulders above other African leaders.
Without any argument this humble and brilliant man who is the son of a South African tribal chief rose to become a prominent voice in his own nation South Africa and eventually the world.
His life demonstrates to us that there are still some few good men in this world worthy of emulation who are role models to the coming generation.
His perseverance, patience, endurance and indomitable spirit evolved him into a powerful revolutionary who concepts, ideas and effort broke the backbone of apartheid in South Africa.
His voice and spirit lives on, he will not be forgotten.
The book 'Long Walk To Freedom' is his beautifully written autobiography which is a delight and inspiration to read, and the newly premiered film with the same title as Mandela's autobiography starring Idris Alba will serve as means of remembering this great creation of God.
My book 'GREAT WORDS FOR GREAT LIVING' will be one of those materials out there that will serve as a means of remembering and honoring this great son of Africa even for many generations to come.
I encourage you to get copies from www.authorhouse.co.uk or www.amazon.com

THE SPIRIT IN A MAN!

The word 'man' is a generic word that is used in referring to humanity as a whole, both male and female.

But in this article I am using the word 'man' purely in reference to the male gender. In using the word 'spirit' I am referring to the make up, heart and being' of the male gender.
It is very important that the world knows the man is different from the woman in many respects. A proper understanding of this will bring about more peace between the sexes on the job, in platonic friendships, in romantic relationships and marriage.
In a man's innermost being he is a warrior. He is equipped to fight spiritually, mentally, psychologically and even physically if he has to protect what he regards as his own.
In the Bible, every man God's spirit came upon became a warrior of some sort. Men have always been created to 'fight' and take territory. From Gideon, to Samson, from Abraham to Jacob, from King David to wise King Solomon whose battles where largely 'wisdom battles' which he excelled in above all the Kings of the earth there has always been battles carved out for men to engage in.
Women are nurturers and cultivators. They are not designed or cut out to do battle with men, especially their husbands. Their role is to support the man in his many battles in life. The woman was created for and because of the man.
Unfortunately we live in an age and time where men are becoming women and women are trying to become men. Roles are being reversed due to a lack of understanding of each sexes uniqueness, no wonder the world is in a mess.
There will be more peace in the home if the woman understands her man and the man understands his woman. More women will understand their husbands if their fathers had taught them who men are.
A lot of wives see think their husband is another woman, it leads to them getting into arguments with him and fights, which break down the family unit.
The spirit in a man is such that men show compassion to those who are submitted to them or lower than them, they fight and do battle with those who are on the same plane with them and they respect and reverence that which is superior or higher than them. This is the reason the Bible encourages women to be submitted to their husbands. Not because they are inferior, but its for the sake of structure and order in a home and because  of the way the man is 'built', because of the man's spirit.
When a woman rises up against her husband, she has signaled to him that she is not under his authority, when she does that she has signaled to her husband that they are equal in authority, when she rises against her husband she has declared he isn't her lord. That way she presents herself as someone he should fight, because there is no order between them. This type of stance and attitude robs a woman of her beauty in the man's eyes. He begins to see her as another man not a woman he should protect. It is the cause for a lot of physical abuse in many homes, men who hit their wives were not seeing her as a woman at the time he hit her. He was so upset, he was seeing her as another man he was in battle with. This is a psychology about men many women need to understand.
And when a man starts seeing his wife as another man, he will fight her, instead of fighting for her, for there cannot be two masters in a 'ship'.
Single ladies who have the privilege of having their fathers or who have male mentors with them should find out from him who a man is before they get married, it will save them a lot of heartache.
In the marital union, a wife can never 'prevail' against her husband in any form of battle. She can't because she has been placed under the authority of her husband.
 If she doesn't understand this she will fight battles with her husband she will never win and remain in misery.

Cyclops, Giants,and Genesis 6.

Giants once walked the face of this earth, I know this to be true because the Bible says so. In Genesis 6 we are told of a race of giants who were the mighty men of their day, they were evil and were eventually wiped out by a miraculous flood during the days of Noah.

Archaeology also shows us evidence of this fact. There are bone fossils, skulls and skeletal structures pieced together that show an evidence of men who were giants that once lived on the face of this earth. Men as tall as 20 feet, 19 feet and various heights from 8 feet and above.

The picture above is a picture I took yesterday at the Natural History Museum in South Kensington London.

It is a skull of one of the giants that lived from ancient times.

That skull is not the skull of an ordinary human being. It is about 5 times the size of a normal human skull.

This proves beyond a shadow of doubt that giants have existed here on earth in different parts of the world. The most famous giant in history is probably Goliath, the giant David the shepherd boy killed, and according to the Biblical account he was about 9 feet and six inches tall.

L.A Marzulli an archaeologist and Nephilim researcher has loads of archaeological evidence of technologies, discovered cities and civilizations that these giants he called Nephilims lived in and used. Technologies that were beyond their time, and stone masonry and architecture that was not found anywhere else except in the regions where these giants lived.

The word Nephilim is a Hebrew word for 'fallen ones'. 

It is believed and I believe it to that these giants are children of the fallen angels cast out of heaven, who took wives among the daughters of men according to Genesis 6. How else could they have come about?

There are tales and stories, even in children's books of one eyed giants. Well I believe they existed at some point. Some of the giants that were wiped out during Noah's flood could have been one eyed. They are called cyclops.

Some may have been handsome and charming, these became the inspiration for many of the Greek myths about Achilles, Zeus, Hercules, Apollo and Norse mythology about Odin, Thor and many of those heroic stories that fascinate us today.

But what I do know is that none of them were good though they had super human abilities and strength. In other words there weren't heroes but were evil.

Why would God wiped them out with a flood if they were heroic and good?

Their source was evil and they were an evil bunch. They were a weak attempt by satan to create his own type of men and humanity. There were satan's weak attempt to to infuse divinty and humanity together like God would successfully do through Jesus. These giants came about as a result of the evil ones desperate attempt to corrupt God's human race which the evil one has always been jealous of.

There have been various accounts of giants in history, Gog and Magog, the Anakins etc

Angels and humans are not designed to come together in sexual unions.

When this happened, these hybrids called Nephilims or Repahim came into existence.

Steve Quayle has done extensive research on giants through history in different parts of the world, check out his website: www.genesis6giants.com

Who Are Your Role Models?

Role models are heroes to someone, the good thing is that you are somebody's role model, you are someone's hero.
Role models give us a vision, they are in a sense human visions we aspire to be like.
Positive inspirational role models are hard to find now, because they are in the minority. Unfortunately will live in times where the negative is praised and accepted, and the positive is rejected and belittled.
But you can be the difference.
You can become the role model to subscribe to in your field of endeavor.
There are a number of people who have inspired me greatly,people whose passion I admire,whose intelligence inspires, and whose diligence has made an impact!
It's good to know we still have positive role models in this world, shinning lights within the darkness of this world who by diligent study, the grace of God and unrelenting effort are a pride to hear and behold.
One of such men in my opinion is Les Brown, I consider him one of the finest speakers in the world, his delivery is both powerful and strategic, he is also a very humble man. A man who loves his adopted mother passionately, he fulfills the Biblical command that we are honor our father and our mother.
Another role model for me is Anthony Robbins. A versatile, gifted business and life strategist with results beyond the ordinary for what he teaches. He has helped and saved tons of lives by his gift and intelligence, when Anthony Robbins teaches, you can feel his compassion for people and his passion to help them. He  fulfills the wisdom nugget, 'what you make happen for others, God will make happen for you'
Zig Ziglar of blessed memory is a role model worth watching, listening to and emulating. His books are very inspiring, his love for his wife is very commendable, his openness about his christian faith is worth emulating and he has made tremendous impact in a positive way.
Norman Vincent Peale is another good model who has left a worthwhile legacy for generations through his writings and preachings. No other individual has brought the importance and psychology of right and positive thinking to the world like Norman Vincent Peale.
President Barack Obama is another role model the world will not forget. His achievements are historical, his life is an inspiration and the way and wisdom with which he channels his oratory gift is mesmerizing.
Paul Antonio is a calligrapher of repute whose gift and dedication to his work is admirable.
The passion, wisdom and dedication of Nigeria's Bishop Oyedepo is impressive and shows us qualities worth emulating.
In the field of science,I admire the spirit of exploration Albert Einstein and Isaac Newton have.
I love the God given wisdom of Mike Murdock and his heart for Pastors.
Former Governor of California, mega successful weight lifter and film star Arnold Schwarzzenneger has a fascinating life. I see him as one of those rare individuals who's made the most of the opportunities life has presented him.
We are all called to be role models. The call to be a role model is a call to leave the non-essentials of life to focus on the things that really matter, it is a call to aspire to greater things, better values and in the process inspiring everyone in our sphere of influence positively.

The Need For Life Mentors.

We don't need to suffer unnecessarily. Life has enough battles, complications and challenges that come with it, why add more challenges to what you have got when it can be avoided?

There is someone who has achieved what you want to achieve,there is someone who is where you want to be, there are people who have tread the path you are beginning to journey on. There are people who know what you need to know and can teach you what you need to be taught to get you to where you want to get to.

Such people can help you reduce the stress in your journey of life, they can help you get to your destination faster and avoid pain and hurts you do not have to experience. They have the ideas you need because they have been on a similar journey and are familiar with the terrain.

You should make such people your mentor.

Do you recognize a potential mentor when you see one?

Mentors are part of life's opportunities. Make the most of them.

How far you go in life will be determined by how well you seize opportunities.

It is crucial we make the most of our opportunities if we are going to live fulfilled lives.

A mentor is someone who has what you need to get to where you want to get to and is willing to share the secrets of the journey with you.
Mentors are actually destiny helpers.
Many have missed out on their God assigned mentors, due to an inability to discern them, pride and arrogance or the foolishness of thinking they can make it without direction from those who have gone a head of them.
Mentors help you lift the burden on your journey, they see what you do not see and know what you do not know. Mentors should be friendly but firm, disciplined and caring enough to straighten out their protege. A good mentor is one who knows where you are coming from, feels what you are going through but allows you to bear your own 'cross'.
Since life is designed for relationships, and we need other people to get to where we are going to, it's time we start opening ourselves up to the wisdom and privilege of good mentors.

The Benefits And Power of Good Literature.

The success of every successful individual in the world today can be traced to some form of literature that influenced and impacted their lives positively.

It could be a biography, and autobiography, a manuscript, a movie (which was once a book/manuscript), a religious literature (eg. the Koran and the Bible) or perhaps they were told a life story of someone which motivated and influenced them to success, this story they heard although it's not in print is a potential book. (we all like success stories, there is something about stories that move us).

This raises the question, which books are you reading?

A wise man once said, ''where you will be in five years from now is determined largely by the friends you keep and the books you read''.

How true!

Our friends rub off on us and books affect our mindset. These two choices can make or break you.

There can be a correlation between the friends we keep and the books we read.

It's very likely you will pick friends who have a common goal with you or who share similar interests.

The kind of books you take an interest in reading can also determine your friendships, since you will likely bond better with people who will read what you like to read.

Books are so important,the secret of the ages are hidden in books somewhere.

The strategy you need is written in a book somewhere.

The inspiration and motivation to keep going can come by reading an inspired book.

Good literature has educated us over the years, entertained us, increased our knowledge, our know how, helped our development and civilization, and created business and career opportunities as well and enlightening us and helping our skill aquisition.

Good literature can open the door to a totally new world for us and determine our quality of life.

It's believed that President Barack Obama's successful 2008 Presidential campaign which is still regarded as the best Presidential campaign in American history, was inspired by his reading Saul Alinsky's book 'Rules For Radicals'. Saul Alinsky is believed to be the father of modern day community organizing as we know it. It's believed the community organizing strategies in that book made Barack Obama emerge as President of the new world. 

Dexter Yager is a man who is living a successful lifestyle and has influenced and produced more millionaires than perhaps anybody else through an educational system he and his wife Birdie put together to keep them inspired and to help other people achieve their own dreams and millionaire status on the platform of  Amway networking marketing.

Dexter and Birdie recall that the book which did it for them and changed their lives for ever is the success classic 'The Magic Of Thinking Big' by Dr David J. Schwartz

Many motivational and successful speakers in the world today credit their careers and success to books like 
'The Power Of Positive Thinking' by Norman Vincent Peale and 'Think and Grow Rich' by Napoleon 
Hill.Where would these men be if these authors didn't write these books.I am sure there are books in you to.I read the Bible and I am always inspired by it. Like everybody else I like stories. Stories sell, and stories put ideas in our head.

The Bible is loaded with lots of inspiring stories that can motivate and inspire you! No wonder
 it's history's best selling book!

Many celebrities have discovered what I am sharing with you. That's why they sell their stories 

by writing autobiographies or they assign someone to write a biography of them, the idea is to 

capitalize on their fame and make a profit by telling their story. Smart.

Which books are you reading?
