Hello lovely Steemians. How are you all doing? I am very splendid. Today being the first Sunday in the month of July, I woke up around 5 am to start preparing, I had to boil some water because the cold was something else to risk bathing cold water which I love to do. I was able to finish everything that I was doing around 6:30am and went to our students fellowship venue, I was to conduct the service for the day so I wanted to be prepared by coming very early. I was able to arrange the church and swept out few dirts that I saw before making a short prayer. The Bible study started about 7:30am where we discussed about the mercies of God on his people and the preparation for a greater and eternal tomorrow.
The sermon was powerful as the Topic: Principles of Advancement. The text was gotten from Exodus 14 Vs 15 where Moses was informed to continue moving. The preacher implores his audience that no matter how the situation is like, no matter how tough it could be, even when you seem like dropping everything that we should not be discouraged but rather we should move forward and advance to greatness.
Laws of Advancement
Be Intentional: Every growth is done with an intention. To succeed in life you need to write out what you want in the next 3-5 years and strive and work towards that.
Have Vision: There is a connection between vision and Advancement. Ask yourself this question daily. What is your vision in school/life?, What is your everyday desires?, The speaker admonishes the audience to break their visions into goals and daily tasks, one that will not exceed their expectations and make it bogus to handle and attain. We should be realistic in our pursuit.
Have Light: You need light to shine your path and understanding to guide you through. Ask God for his guidance, because honestly we need him to succeed. Light in our paths that we will not divert from the original plan.
Have a positive mindset: What you feed your mind is what you become, what you see daily has an effect on your subconscious mind. Everything you become in life first takes shape into your mind.
