If God be for you, who can be against you? Well, YOU! You are the one person who can stand in your own way. The one person who determines how far you go.

Consider this, if you have a car and you had the keys, will the car drive you to your destination by itself? Apparently not. Because even self-driving cars would need input from you. God has played his part by creating you and giving you a will and a brain to go with. How you decide to use it is totally up to you! Don’t fold your arms and say God will do it Cos he already has. The rest is all you. And no amount of prayers or religiosity will make him do your part for you.

The decision to wake up at 5 am or snooze the alarm till the clock starts ignoring you, the decision to “go with the flow” rather than take a stand and be deliberate about success, the decision to react to everything you hear rather than focus on your business is all up to YOU!

I’m sure you’ve heard this saying countless times “you can achieve anything you put your mind to.” As much as it’s the undiluted truth, the part you don’t hear often is that putting your mind to something worthwhile will take everything you have, it will test your limits, stretch you beyond your elasticity and turn you into something new.

So if you are afraid of letting go of who you currently are, guess what? You are already against you.

I am still The Rainmaker, The Olu of London, Bobagunwa of Indiana, First of my Name, Warden of Wisdom and the Bringer of peace. Don’t play yourself!
