Living in thankfull expectation Thanksgiving is the yeast for multiplication, a man with a thankful heart his or her tank is always full. No matter the situation we find ourselves we should learn to always gives thanks instead of murmurming or complaining. In philippians 4:6. The holy bible say; “Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your request be made known unto God” Giving thanks expresses your appreciation for God’s forgiveness and mercy. This step of thanksgiving is the highest form of faith. You thank God for what you don’t yet see because you believe it is already done. “Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see” (Hebrews 11:1). If you truly believe you have already received your request, you will thank God. We are not to wait until we see the manifestation of our answer before expressing gratitude. You don’t show God your belief until you thank Him. Suppose you request a loan from a banker, who approves the loan and says, “Consider it done. The money will be deposited into your account.” You don’t see the money, so you don’t know if he would do it, but you thank him and do business based on his word. God wants us to do the same with Him and give thanks even before we see the answer manifest or not. If we will believe God, the answer will come. Whatever condition you are into right now, continue in the spirit of thanksgiving—living in anticipation of the answer to your prayer. Ephesians 3:20 says, “Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us.” Live in thankful expectation! Learn to Close all your prayer times with thanksgiving because what you have asked for has already been released. you can pray this prayer in your quite time: Father, thank You for hearing and answering my prayer. Thank You for Your faithfulness to answer my petition even before I see the manifestation. In You I can live a life of expectation, in Jesus’ name, Amen.

The secret of how I often bye pass first come first serve protocol in banking sector. my name is moses, I am going to be sharing a secret of how I bye pass bank protocol of first come first serve. Although it kind of risky and dangerous if cut. We all do that banking sector is a major sector that has to do with protocol, and also it one sector almost all business people cant do with out. To enter the banking sector this day be it (first bank, access bank. Gtb bank or any other bank) it base on first come first serve or first in first out. (FIFO) Unless one has connection it can be the other way round, last come first out. (LIFO). Only the big men in the society that most use this method or those that have people in the bank use this (LIFO Method). But those who dont have money or who dont want to bribe, often come to the bank early so that they can be through with their transactions on time. Once you get to the bank, automatically there is always a queue unless you decide to sleep in the bank, so due to the queue most bank has come up with having a canopy close by, so that people can rest under while they wait for it to get to their turn before they can enter the bank to do their transactions. I discover a secret just recently. I was working with a lawyer, and then he told me to go to the bank and give the bank manager a letter, then I told him that it almost 3o' clock that bank do close by 5pm and beside they are going to be queue, so he told me not to worry myself that I should not stay in the queue, that I should walk up to the security men and tell them that I have a letter for the bank manager. So I decided to give it a try, I got to the bank at 3:35. And they were alot of people still at the queue, so I just pass the queue and I went straight to the security man, telling him that I have a letter for the bank manager, then I showed him an envelope as a proof of the letter, then he allow me to go inside, the rest people outside were just complaining,and if they were not human for waiting for their turn, so the security man told them that I came with a letter to see the manager, then I was just laughing. So I enter the bank and I submitted the letter. Since that day, anytime I am going to the bank, even if i don't want to see any bank manager I will just buy an envelope, and tell the security man that I have a letter for the bank manager, automatically they will let me in, even without me staying any queue, then when I get inside the bank, I will just wait for my turn and then do my transaction. That is how I have been avoiding staying on the queue outside the bank, I only stay on the queue inside the bank if they is any.

How I ended up as a computer operator instead of phone repairer engineer I always wanted to be a phone repairer engineer every since I was little, because I have passion for it, and also at my age back then, they was no phone I can't operate. So after my secondary school exam (WAEC) West African Examinations Council, so i told my dad about my intention of me learning a skill, before I will enter school or while waiting for Jamb registration form to be out. So my dad buy the ideal of me learning a skill before entry into the university, so my dad ask me, what do skills do I have in mind to learn, then I told him phone repairer engineer, and he said no, that I can't learn such skills that It too risky, I then ask him why, and he said it is risky because there is a high tendency of phone repairer to repair a stolen phone without them knowing it a stolen phone, and if the phone is track the repairer will be at fault. So I then told him that alot of people are doing this work and they are even making a living from it. And my dad said no, that I wont do it due to the risky of stolen phone, so as to avoid me been getting arrested for what I dont know one or two. So my dad told me to think of sumtin else. I didn't have anything in my, because my dream was to become a phone repairer engineer, so my dad told me to go and learn computer skills since I will be using computer to write my jamb. That was how I went to learn computer skills, the main reason why I learnt computer skills was simply because I want to write my jamb. At first, I didn't like the idea, but I was just going to the computer school so that I can learn how to write my exam which is computer based, and after my exam then i will take of what skills to learn. So after my first one month training, then I begin to develop interest in it, so I put more seriousness to it. And today I am glad i did, despite the fact that the initial motive of me learning computer skills was because of my jamb exam, i am begin to make a living out of it. After my 6 months training duration, I was among the 3 best graduating student, so the owner of the place retain me as a worker, I work for like a 10 months, because I didn't make my first jamb exam, so I was working and earn after my training and also preparing for my second jamb. Eventually I got admission, but before I stop working, I have made times 3 of the money I paid to learn the computer skills. I am really glad that I take advantage of my computer training, right know I am now a graphic design. The money and time i put into my computer training program wasn't a waste. I have even earn more than the money I paid to register for the computer training program, and I am still earn, infact my computer training skills has been my source of income even while I am in university.

Good name is better than riches. Just like how my dad has is favorite proven, which is "fowl wa dy lay egg dy tire" my mom also has her own quote or proverb as well which is " Good name is better than riches". No body is disputing the fact that riches is not good, but having a good name is a legacy which you and your children unborn will benefit from. It way better to have a good names than to be rich, although one can still have a good name and be wealthy. Riches is good, but when it getting in a illegal, dubious or fraud way, it tend to damage some image or reputation. Having a good name or reputation, automatically can make an individual to be trustworthy. Many people tend to do business with people who are trust worthy, loyal and have good reputation than with people who are dubious, and cunning. If you do a business with a trustworthy man or woman, you will be happy and you can also patronage them often because the first business you did with them you were not disappoint and you were not scam. But if you do a business with people who don't care about having good name or image, their only concern is to make more profit or make more sales at all cost, you will be disappointed. My mom used to say it not all business transaction you make profit, u can sell your product or stuff at the normal price. And some other time you sell at a high price so that you can make profit, but in all of this it still better you satisfy your customer so that next time they can come and patronage you. Indeed good name is better than riches, Good name is also an automatic ticket to riches as well. If an individual is known to have a good reputation or image, he or she will always be recommended first in any activities that involve a trust worthy person. My mom told me about a story of a lady who was in university, and she was having a missing script in one particular course, base on the fact that she refuse to sleep with the lecturer incharge of the course. The lecturer name was Mr Vincent. The lady wrote the paper continuously 2 times and she still got carry over, so she went to report to the head of department, and they look into the case,but base on the fact that the man is a lecturer and has upper hand, the man said that the girl didn't submit her exam paper, so he add to put carry over. So the lady wrote the exam again, but this time,it was a female lecturer who handle the case, then she got B in the course, and that was how she graduated and went for NYSC. And after NYSC she started a small company. So after many years the lecturer son (Mr Vincent) came to her office and apply for the post of an accountant in the lady office. So the lady started to interview her, and she saw her surname, and she asked her the lady if her dad was a retire lecturer and the lady say yes. Then she told the lady to leave her office, after she told the lady what her dad did to him while she was in her final year in school. After due several pleading she finally employed the girl because her credential was OK, and the boss said no need of me punishing you of your father sin. But with some people reverse would have been the case. So it way better to have a good name.

Fowl Wa dy lay egg dy tire. my dad favorite proverb "Fowl wa dy lay egg dy tire" my dad often say this proverb to me and my siblings. Although at first i didn't get the meaning of the proverb, I thought my dad was using that proverb as a means of not giving me or my siblings money, but it far from that. My dad is not as wealth as dangote or bill gate, but he is well to do, that mean he is rich in his own kind of way, anything he want he could afford, so in other word my dad is comfortable and OK. Despite the fact that he has money and can easily give us anything we want as long as his money could get them, yet he always make this proverb for us. "Fowl wa dy lay egg dy tire". It was few years, I started to understand the concept behind the proverb, my dad was trying to tell me and my cousin that we should be a liability,and we should try and feed for ourselves no matter what. He might not be there for us anytime we need him or want anything from him, but it will be better we would stand on our own and be a man. My dad often advised us how he started life and the mistakes he made in life, so that we won't end up doing the same mistake. The proverb my dad often make, as made me a man, even though I still ask my dad for money up till date, I still try my best to work for my own money, so that I won't be disturbing him with my responsibility. I learn to work for my money, even though i know that the money I make in a month, my dad can give me in a day, without him shaking. But the proverb he always say to us, make me not to totally depend on him. My dad even went as far as demonstrating his proverb to my siblings and I. My dad decided to training fowl so that we all can get the point he is trying to make. My dad started poultry business with 3 fowl. As the plan was to kill 1 for easter, another 1 for Christmas, then the last one will be laying egg for some time till when we are going to kill it. So he started, he bought a week old chicken, then we train them. Until when they were big, so we killed one for easter, and the other one for Christmas. So I was wondering how will a fowl start to lay egg if they were not male and female in the cage. It was at that moment I knew that fowl can lay even though they don't mate.(sex). With food they can lay. That is they have a feed which you can give to fowl automically they can lay eggs. So my dad bought the food. And the fowl started to lay, on a dialy basis, for like 2weeks it was a continous process. So after two weeks the fowl stop laying, then I told my dad abt it and he laugh and said that if I have forgotten his favorite proverb, and i said no. The proverb is "fowl wa dy lay egg dy tire" . so my dad still left the fowl at the cage, this time around the bone of the fowl is strong. So we just left the fowl there and just wait for when to kill the fowl, so after one month again, the fowl started laying,but this time around it was not on a daily basis like two to three days interval. But the point was drawed fully when my dad decided to do a practical example for us. So no matter what, don't fully depend on anyone.

Be free from Greed "But godliness with contentment is great gain” (1 Timothy 6:6). Greed is the act of desiring and doing anything to get what is not really yours and what we are not even qualified for. What makes people steal public money in millions is greed. It is greed that makes a person to set aside his own wife or her own husband and run after another. Greed destroys a destiny, a nation, family and ministry. The devil uses it to send so many to hell fire untimely. The scripture says in Colossians 3:5, “Put to death therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, passion, evil desire and covetousness, which is idolatry.” The beauty of your life will be seen as you get freed from greed. You will be a blessing to your generation as honour will surround your life. Get yourself away from greed today, and enjoy the blessings that follow. It is important you have liberty/freedom from greed. You know we brought nothing into the world and for sure we cannot take anything away. *PRAYER:* Oh Lord, deliver me from the killing power of greed. Teach me contentment. Amen. *

I am in ebenezer Ebenzer mean by help as come. Jehavor Ebenezer mean God help over a man life, as an individual, group or community we can not help our self, we all need God to help us. Many atimes men has tried several means to help them self, but to no avail, it only God go can help us. Men can be a channel through which God can help you, men are just channels, God is the source. So no matter what anyone is going through in life, all we need is the help of God. One thing is to be in Ebenezer while another thing is to pitch near Ebenezer. In 1st samuel 4:1 1 Samuel 4:1 [1]And the word of Samuel came to all Israel. Now Israel went out against the Philistines to battle, and pitched beside Ebenezer: and the Philistines pitched in Aphek.. The people of isreal pitch beside Ebenezer, yet they were still killed, they loss over 4,000 men. To be in Ebenezer and to pitch beside Ebenezer is different things. Many people pictch beside Ebenezer, and that is why, they will seek help from God and also seek help from other alternative. But when you are inEbenezer , he will definitely help you. It is better to be in Ebenezer than to pitch around Ebenezer. God help is very important in a man life. And that is what we need, no matter what we are facing or going through, we need the help of God. EBENEZER (God help has come)

Quick rich syndrome. In our generation today, we have a lot of people who dont find pleasure in working for their money. Then intend to make quick money by all means. That is why the rate at which people learn work or skills this days is drastically reducing, it will come to a time where we are going to be looking for people to do minor job like clearing, sewing, making of shoes, fixing of generator and all that, they won't be people on ground to do that, because most of our youth dont find pleasure in learning any kind of work or skills all they want is quick money. They is dignity in labor, and the bible say I will bless the labour of your hands, Due to the fact that the rate of poverty is very high, and people don't longer have patient or wait for God times, alot of our youth has venture into the quick rich syndrome. Like yahoo yahoo, prostitution, ritual, drugs trafficking, human trafficking, and all kind of illegal act. And all of this is not Good, but I can't blame most of the people involved in it. But yet what is not good is not good, no matter how you paint it. All of these stuff are not good, they are people who still do legal work, they also make living from it. Quick rich syndrome is a major problem in our country nigeria, alot of people want to make money as quick as possible without following procedure, Rome was not built in a day. Inpatient and peer pressure is the reason why most of our youth don't want to wait for God's time. Alot of people have sold their soul to the devil all in the name of making money, what use is the money if you loss your soul. People often say if you want to follow the devil to eat, it is better you take a long spoon, but I will advise you don't even follow the devil to dine or eat in the first place. The holy bible say money answereth all things, but money can't get u everything, and it also says it the root of all evil Money can buy you bed, but not sleep, it can buy you food but not appetite, it can buy you house but not rest of mind. Money is good, no one is disputing that fact, but the impatient and quick syndrome of getting money is really bad. My dad use to say that the money you work for things are still hard, how abt the one you dont work for, you scam people of their sweat and hard earn money, and then you expect them to be praying for you. We all need to be contended with what we have, no matter how much you get (both the rich and the poor) we all are still going to end in 6 feets. Quick rich syndrome is really bad, I would advise everyone to learn to get their money in a legal way, been smart is not bad, but frauding people of their money is bad

Avoid Desperation Desperation is becoming reckless or dangerous as a result of unguarded desire to acquire something. Acting as hopeless and using every sense of urgency. This attitude has a positive and negative aspect. There is nothing bad with working hard to achieve or acquire something, but the rule of the game must be observed. Desperation is seeking for a short cut to success or result. It then ends in compromise. Symptoms of Desperation are: Always doing things with wrong motives, Always unhappy. Desperate people are never happy because they are preoccupied with intentions to fight, maneuver, deceive and use every means even foul for their desires. Always Impatient. Desperate people are not ready to wait to be recognized rather they seek for recognition at all cost. They don't observe protocols. They involve in unhealthy or imbalanced competitions. Pride contributes a lot to the attitude of desperation coupled with laziness and faithlessness. When a person is possessed with these three attitudes, desperation must set in and manifest in the life of the person. This attitude leads to compromise. This is why a desperate person can assassinate an opponent. Others use scandals to undue an opponent. Or they may employ any ungodly or unethical means to fight for their desires. Please we must be conscious of the fact that there is nothing worth fighting for except your life. The attitude of desperation leads to compromise in many ways. People exchange things of no equal value when they are desperate. As in the case of Esau please someone should help me check the value of a plate of food compared to one's birthright. It's unimaginable that somebody in his right sense will swear an oath to transfer his birthright in exchange for one meal. Not even a whole lifetime meal, but just one meal. Desperation for wealth and office can lead into soiling of one's hands. Remember that certain things when lost are irrecoverable. Eternal life and the kingdom of God are irrecoverable when lost. Control yourself. Note: Desperation can lead to compromise. The bible say: "For I know the thoughts I think towards you, saith the lord, the thoughts of peace, and not evil, to give you an expected end” (Jeremiah 29:11)

My experience with albuma boys at ring road My experience with abuma boys is one of the experience in my life that I won't ever forget. I base in Benin, Edo state to be precise, for those who base in benin ringroad to be precise must have heard or seen this boys in action. Albuma is a place in ring road where u can get any kind of gadget, phones and accessories, be it new one, UK used, stolen, or even swapped ones and also repair gadget. Those boys over there can disturb all in the name of selling, they will ask you if you if u want to buy or sell or repair your phone or accessories, and the funny thing abt it is that even if u want to buy a phone or repair from them, most of them don't have a store or shop, they are like agent or middle man, they will direct you to a place where they are going to give them commission after any transaction. I have hearing about both the good and bad aspect of them, although some are doing the business legally, while some are doing it illegal. My first encounter with them was a bad one, I went there to swap my phone, that is I will give them my phone and add little money to it and collect a better one from them. Due to my encounter with them, I vow to never swap any phone in my life again, instead I will only purchase new one. What happened was that I was using tecno M3. So i decided to upgrade it to a higher version, like P5 or Gionee. So I was advised by a friend to try ring road. (Albuma side) he told me that he got his new phone from the place. And it was working fine. So I decided to give it a try. But the mistake I made was that I went alone to the place. On getting to ring road. One of those albuma boys on the road was asking me if I want buy, sell, repair or swap my gadget. I told him no, so as I was going another person show up and say the same thing. So I said yes. I told him I want to swap my phone, that I want a better phone, the one that is not stolen. Then he said the problem. He took me to a corner, that because police often walk pass that area, because most of the phones are stolen phone, accept for those selling new gadget they dont have issue with police. So after taken be to a corner he ask me which phone i am using to swap and how much am i adding, i told him i am adding 4k to my phone, so he said no pro, he brought out several phone, and then he ask me choice which I did, I tested the phone for some minute,and it was working find, I tested the mouth piece and the charging port everything was working well. So I paid. After paying i didn't see the guy again.so I just taught that I should check if the phone main screen is good (calibrator) because it was cover with dark screen guard. So when I pull it off I discover that the main screen guy is really bad and any more fall from me the screen and the screen guard will be need to fix. So I was angry, because I don't like my phone to be crack. So I was complaining, then one of those albuma boys show up and said since I dont like phone with broken screen i should add 1k to this my own and collect the phone want to give me. Then I was happy, unknow to me that he want to scam me. Assuming I know I would have just managed the one I was given b4. So I said which phone is he going to give me, he said p5. And that was my dream phone as at back then. So I was happy, then I gave him my phone and the 1k. Then he gave me the P5. Saying i should go to a corner and observe it due to the police movement. That he will be here waiting for me. I was happy, when I went to put on the phone I discover the phone didn't on, I went back to the guy, and I was told that he ran immediately I went to check the phone. then I decided to open the phone as see why it didnt on to my greatest surprise the phone was completely scrab. (No screen but it was covered with dark screen guard, the ba3 inside the phone was not good as well). At this point I was broke down. I started crying and swearing for the phone, then i just throwaway the phone there, I took good phone to albuma and I left without a phone. That was my encounter with albuma boys and since then anytime I go to ringroad and I am in need of any gadget I go straight to the store or shop, I don't longer do any business with all those albuma boys.

Why I don't have a babe or girlfriend Good afternoon everyone, my name is moses, and I just want to share a brief summary of my love life. I am 21 years old, and people often ask me where is my babe or better still my girl friend. I know many people will be wondering while I am still single. I am from a Christian home, I am very funny, caring and loving, but yet I still don't have a girl friend,although I have a lot of female friends as my friend, but none of them is my babe. During my senior secondary school almost all my friends back then have a girlfriend, but I didn't have, it not because i don't want to have, so I was single by choice. I decided that I will have a girlfriend when I am in the university. One of the reasons why I decide to have a girlfriend when I am in the university is to stay away from sex and unnecessary billing. My intention and my prayer is that I dont want to date many girls before I settle down. I just want to date a girl when I am ready to settle down. Probably date one or two so that I can know who to settle dowm with. Although I have alot of crush back then in secondary school. It got to a time, I was tired of hiding my feelings from anyone I love, so intend of me having a crush I will just tell the person about how I feel. I believe in single dating that is one boy to one girl. And i don't like to break any one relationship simply becus I am inlove with the person. So this was a barrier for me, most of the girls I have crush on even when I was in secondary and even when I got to the university, they often told me that they are in a relationship, although some say it and mean it, while some say it just to drive me away from them, because I often ask if they are into a relationship before I tell them how i feel abt them, and I also just tell them straight that if u know you are in a relationship just tell me, so I wont border nurturing my feelings, so I will just step out that is my feelings for the person will just go down, although we can still be friends, but the feelings I have for that person will just go. Simply becus I don't want to pressure anyone to leave their boyfriend for me. So it got to a time, I was just feed up with this girlfriend stuff and beside it save me from any heart break or me breaking anyone heart. I just told myself when the right time comes I will see my own girl. And beside I know everyone has a soul mate. When the right person come my way, she will be mine and mine alone, I will love and cherish her.

Why I stop playing games with my phone My name is moses, popularly called excellord, that because I am with the Microsoft excel software. I started using phone Right from jss1 and the first phone I use was given to me by by dad, that was over 10 years ago. My first phone ever was called Nokia 3310.(old generation phone) I used the phone for some month, and then the phone spoil, it was at that moment I know that phone do expire, the phone was showing contact service on the screen, so I took it to repair and they said that the phone has expired. So I just drop the phone. Then after some months later I gather money to buy at phone, but due to the fact that I was still a student I was unable to gather money for new one, and I dont want to disturb my phone abt getting a new phone. So I purchase Nokia java from a repairer store. Then I start use the phone for some while, then I discovered that they are some java games that I can't play due to my screen side, games liks mortal kombat, pes and fifa and so on. Then I decided to swap my phone with some body, and add little money to my phone, which I did and I started enjoying my phone. After some time, java phone was not invoke, so it was blackberry that was invoke, as a student and as a person I don't impress or go against my power, so I sold my java phone and got a symbian phone at least that was way better than my java phone, and also I can't purchase a black berry phone so I had to make use of the phone I can purchase. After 2 years my phone was stolen. So I just decide that it was for the best. Blackberry was no longer invoke. So I told my dad that I want to get a new phone or better still a second phone. When I told him the price, he said that I should wait that he doesnt have money now. So I started saving from the money he normally give me to buy food at lunch in school. So after saving the sum of #6000. I went to a repair shop, and then I purchase my first android phone which was tecno m3. By this time I was in SSS2. I was really happy, at least now I can get to surf the Internet, and also do a lot of things with the phone. The only mistake i made was to put PES on my phone. Normally I am not a football fan, I only watch national league that when my country is playing which is Nigerian. But I love playing ball both in game and in real life. So after installing the game on my phone, I became so addicted to it that i play the game any time any day. I even play the game to the extent that even when my battery is 2% I will still play it, even when I am charging the phone I will still play it. After some time I discover a new development on my phone that the battery don't longer last again, then I got a new battery, so then I now have 2 battery. I continue playing the game until when I discover that my phone is hot. So I observed it for some time, then I took the phone to the repair and I explained to him. It was discover that my phone has panel issues. And then I ask how much to fix it. He told me that panel the phone. It was at that moment I know that panel was the phone and they is no way you can repair phone panel unless u have another type of the phone, then you can interchange the panel. So that was how I continue to manage the phone until one day the phone off and never on again. Ever since then I don't use my phone to play any games at all so that i won't be addicted to it, although I still play game either with someone phone or with my PS 3

My first visit to oko prison Good afternoon everyone. I intend to share a brief story of my experience at oko prison, or better still my first visit to nigeria prison in edo state to precise (Oko prison) On the 3rd December 2020, I was called by my mom saying that one of my favorite cousin has been arrested, and he is in oko prison. I was shocked at first when I heard the news, because I know this person very well, he is not into any illegal stuff. So after ending the call conversation with my mom, I quickly called my boss informing her abt the lastest development, and that I won't be coming to work today, so as to enable me go and visit my cousin at the police station. Before I forget, let me introduce my cousin, he is name is frank, he is a relative from my mother side. He is married, and has 3 kids, he is self employed. After I ended the call with my boss, I went straight to the bathroom and take my bath, and dress up, so I took a cab from my place to sapele road. The prison is located in sapele road, an another name for the oko prison is white house, the prison is know to be a place where dangerous criminal and murderer are kept. On getting to the prison, I went straight to the canter to ask the police officer in charge abt the where about of my cousin. And he said that he has been kept in prison, so I pleaded with him to bring him out so that I can have a word with him, at first the police officer refused. So I make another attempt, but this time I had to drop something for the boys (on a coded format). So he allowed me to see my cousin. I had a one on one conversation with my cousin, so I ask him what happen and how he ended up here. So he started narrating what happened. He said that he went to see his friend at upper (in benin city) so he stay long at his friend place. So when it was late, he decided to go home, unknowing to him that area was rob few hours ago, so as he was abt to go to a place where he can get a vehicle home, he was caught by the police, and before any explanation the police men have already started beating him, and accuse him to be as one of the robber and also a bad boy because he was walking late in the evening. So that was how he ended up there, and the oko prison was the prison closet to upper and that was why they brought him here and also with other people. So I ask him if he has written his statement and also contacted his lawyer and he said yes. So the officer who gave me permission to speak with my cousin told me time up. So I told my cousin that I will do everything possible to get him at of the prison. So after this encounter, it them occur to me that many people are in prison for what they don't even know or have idea of. I make calls to my cousin lawyer, so he went to see the DPO in charge of the prison, because they was no proper evidence that he is a thief, he was only caught because he was walking late in the night. I went to get food for my cousin, then I was ask that I should taste from what I brought, so that they can know if it is poison, and I tasted it, then I took the food to the prison, they were more than 15 person in a prison. The place was just smelling, it was that moment I know that prison is not a good place to be. After dropping the food, my cousin told me to drop money along with the food, the money was to settle the boys in prison so I did. It wasn't fun in the prison, so I put pressure on my cousin lawyer so that he can get him out of there as soon as possible. As God would have it, the lawyer did his best, and my cousin was granted freedom and he was free. Since that day till now, he doesn't walk late at night anymore.

Be a patient waiter. They is a popular saying, which is ; The patient dog eat the fatest bone. Patience is defined by American Heritage Dictionary as the capacity of calm endurance or tolerant understanding. Patience is a wonderful virtue. Someone observed, “Patience can cook a stone.” Patience is one of the fruit of the Holy Spirit. God requires us to be patient with Him and with one another. It is one thing to wait and yet another thing is to wait patiently. Waiting upon God in a trying period is a test of its own that requires patience. In the case of moses in the bible, Israel sinned and consequent upon which Moses broke the first tablet of God’s Law after which God asked Moses to come up to the mountain top to collect a replacement. When Moses went up to the mountain he was enveloped by the cloud of God’s glory for six days and God did not appear or speak to him until the seventh day, God spoke to him from the midst of the cloud. It was one thing for Moses to be at the mountain top as God directed and yet another thing for him to wait patiently upon God for those days so as to receive the Law. The writer of the book of Hebrews said that after we have done the will of God, we still need patience to receive whatever promise He has made to us. Having married in the will of God we need to wait for the fruit of the womb. Having done everything in the will of God we need patience to receive the promise. David was a patient waiter. He said, “I waited patiently for the Lord, He turned to me and heard my cry” (Psa. 40:1-3). It is important that we should learn to wait, and also wait patiently, life is turn by turn, just image a standing fan blowing, it will blow to a particular direction and then return back to another direction, it only those who can wait patiently that will enjoy the breeze. *CONTROLLING THOUGHT:* God’s promises sometimes cannot be received except one goes through the trial of waiting patiently.

Many people often mistake love for lust, although they most look alike but it way different. Love is good, and sweet when you find the right person, although it really difficult to find the right person in the era we are in now. Most people tend to show you love only when they are expecting something in return. Love: A profound and caring affection towards someone. Or love can also be define as Affectionate, benevolent concern or care for other people or beings, and for their well-being While lust: A feeling of strong desire, especially such a feeling driven by sexual arousal.

If you claim to love someone you must be willing to sacrifice a lot. You can say you love someone without sacrificing something for the person you claim to love. Even God show is love towards us by sacrificing only his begotten son. Love and sacrifices go hand in hand. It is important we love one another.
