"You cannot fall when the Lord is your Instructor; you cannot fail when the Lord is your Teacher; you cannot falter when the Lord is your Guide."- Anonymous

'I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.'- Psalm 32:8


"Central banks don't have DIVINE wisdom. They try to do the best analysis they can and must be prepared to stand or fall by the quality of that analysis."- Eddie George (Governor of The Bank of England from 1993 to 2003)



We do use wisdom when speaking to people who are mature in their faith. But it isn't the wisdom of this world or of its rulers, who will soon disappear. We speak of God's hidden and mysterious wisdom that God decided to use for our glory long before the world began.- 1 Corinthians 2:6-7

"Only the still can still the storm."- Dr. David Oyedepo

, a fierce storm came up. High waves were breaking into the boat, and it began to fill with water. Jesus was sleeping at the back of the boat with his head on a cushion. The disciples woke him up, shouting, Teacher, don’t you care that we’re going to drown? When Jesus woke up, he rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Silence! Be still!” Suddenly the wind stopped, and there was a great calm.- Mark 4:37-39

"Spirituality is a booster of destiny, it is a catalyst of destiny, it is a promoter of destiny."- Dr David Oyedepo

"For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace."- Romans 8:6
