It May Be Good, But Not Yours! by Hegela(m): 8:43am On Aug 22, 2018
Just recently I know of a brother who got an offer with a firm bigger than where he works currently. The pay was better, it was a middle management position and the location seems enticing as well but he had to decline this particular offer. It was good but not his!
In life you must understand that not all good things will work for you. Not all locations will make you thrive. Not all offers will benefit you on the long run. Not all connections will lead you to your desired destiny. To some of these, you must learn to say NO!


Do you realise that the tree of good and evil was placed in the garden of Eden by God? That tree was good! God knew it, the devil knew it and even Adam and his wife knew it too! But that good tree was not meant for them!

There is an understanding you must get if you must become exceedingly great in life and remain in God's purpose for you. Not all seemingly good opinion, offers and choices will work for you. To others they might just be great, but for you they will be catastrophic!

Understand who you are. Understand where you are headed. Stop living someone else's plan! What works for 'Aki' just might not work for 'Pawpaw'!

Stop taking decisions by sheer feelings and emotions. Don't go into that business venture cos everyone else is doing it. Don't get married cos all your peers are getting married. You are different. Your timing is not the same as others. Your shinning is different. Your past is not the same as your friend's, so is your present and future!

Beloved trust God for directions always. Have mentor(s) over your life that can pray with you, counsel and guide you accordingly before strategic decisions are taken. Ultimately the decision(s) is yours to take. God will not force you. Mentors won't force you either. Test all spirits. Test all decisions. Test all openings. Test all offers. It might seem good but it may definitely not for you!!
