** Change Yourself And Change The World ** by udopee(f): 10:30am On May 23, 2018
***CHANGE YOURSELF AND CHANGE THE WORLD***

A popular Adage says, “CHARITY BEGINS AT HOME”. Whatever change you want to see in others or the world should start from you. You cannot give what does not belong to you. Before you renew or change others, you must first renew yourself.

Why so many atrocities, bribery and corruption abound in Nigeria and other countries is because people are fake. Many Pastors, workers, leaders etc are fake (hypocrites) and deceivers. They speak and promise one thing, specifically to please their hearers but do the opposite at the back. The Ministers does not practice what they preach.
Many people had sold out themselves to mischief in the society. They know how to forge certificates, forge documents, forge I.D Cards, pickpocket, siphon people’s hard earned money, and obtain money and other stuffs with the so called “Yahoo Yahoo” from people with manipulative words.

Why are people running overseas? Because they want greener pastures. Even as at that, many go to these countries with the mind of criminality. The most disheartening thing is that these people claims to be Christians. Though they go to churches and might occupy influential positions in the church, they are dead because the Spirit of God that quickens is not in them. Their going to church is just to fulfill religious obligations. They are not ready to live right, and they are always the first to condemn, Judge and crucify the righteous and make a caricature of genuine Servant of God or Child of God. After service, they go out there fornicating, drinking, smoking, backbiting, bearing false witness, fighting, treachery, and committing all sorts of atrocities.
“YOU CAN HIDE YOUR IDENTITY FROM MAN, BUT YOU CANNOT HIDE IT FROM GOD”.

Are you not tired of pretending, hiding and camouflaging under someone’s name, image, character and virtues? Are you not tired of cheating, stealing, hacking, smuggling, bribery and corruption?
If truly you are a Christian, the Scripture made to understand in the book of Mathew 7:3-5, that you should remove the mote in your eyes so that you will see very well to remove the ones in others”. You cannot change others without first changing yourself. Allow your mind to be renewed, because every evil a man commits start from the mind. ROMANS 12:2 admonishes us thus, “AND DO NOT BE CONFORMED TO THIS WORLD, BUT BE TRANSFORMED BY THE RENEWING OF YOUR MIND, THAT YOU MAY PROVE WHAT IS THAT GOOD AND ACCEPTABLE AND PERFECT WILL OF GOD”.

If you can renew your mind, you will change yourself as well as the world. All that God has said or promised concerning you will only be a reality as you admit who you are and allow Him to change you. Allow God to work in you-to will and to do of His perfect will in your life and His Blessings that makes rich and adds no sorrow shall be your portion…SHALOM!!!
