Ur first and second bolded are contradictory.

U said only God has the power to change people then u turn around and say it depends on the person's maintained stance..

So u are saying God cannot change anyone if they decide not to change their stance?

What exactly can ur God do without the human mind?

You can read it over again...

What I meant there was that, the existence of God won't ever make sense to you let alone of believing in Him, for as long as you hold on to old believe and convictions....


However, for many who are still hard-hearted and not ready to change, no matter the number of preachings they get (and even if they're ready to change).... it's God that does the total transformation.... through His spirit...then His existence starts becoming meaniful to you even when alone..

There's also some thing called grace, if it's God interest for you to be saved then, you've got no where to run....

' could have shared more views through scriptures...but it seems you people prefer free level.

kingxsamz:
Yes.
The flying spaghetti monster created the universe.
Not God.
Prove to me that God created the universe not the FSM and I'll believe your claim.

Lol.....I guess you've been misinformed.
Anyway, no man has power to change anyone except God, through deep, self revelation.... reasons why most who are lucky to experience near-death experience eventually acknowledge God's existence..... For as long you maintain your stand and justification while not ready to submit your old convictions, I guess it won't ever make any meaning to you...

But you know what, it's the real universal truth of which even many chronic un -believers chose to believe eventually.

morinto:
For those interested should drop their phone contact over here

You should rather drop your own to avoid spamming.

The moment it starts becoming 'meaniful' to one that God doesn't exist (at this age), just know that the person's life has been hacked ..and supernatural intervention is urgently needed.

The most successful being and wisest man ever, even testified to God's existence.

•Look up at the sky just for some minutes and observe how the atmosphere gets spread in all continents.

Check how forms of life exist and live.... from the small ants, to plants, trees, vegetation, several fruits, green-leaf vegetables, GREAT SEAS and DEEP OCEANS... forms of reproduction.. to child birth.... how growths occur to all living entities... to the points of death..e.t.c....how everyone is programmed to sleep and wake.... your sense organs and most importantly, the BRAIN.... which gives you the ability to think... unlike other animals....chai.... it's enough.
Who thinks all these occur by chance?

No @Eulalia.

That's misinformation at its peak.

So in short, premarital affair has 98.9% of leading to extra marital affair after marriage. This however, leads to broken home/family which in turn gives rise to irresponsible children that creates nuisance to the peace of communities and nation at large... then the cycle continues.

We then begin to blame leaders, village people and those who fail to help.

Prime youthful stage that oughts to be utilized....


And to the mod that pushed this to front page? YOU'RE DOING WELL.

Next, when people like OP is privileged to be lecturer in a given University?..... they top the lists of saddists that deprive the right students of their rights....and while taking the advantage of the vulnerables.

kontinuu!

I didn't even bother reading most of the empty comments up there.

Why generalizing the issue? ..... that only exists in your own world and league... and you got what you bargained for.

Anyway who is to be blamed? Or how can a paid moderator push such a lifeless and half baked thread to front page?

Law of attraction! You attract what you give to nature...

Funny comments everywhere!

To all parents�

There was a very brilliant boy, he always scored 100% in Science.
Got Selected for IIT Madras and scored excellent in IIT.
Went to the University of California for MBA.
Got a high paying job in America and settled there.
Married a Beautiful Tamil Girl.
Bought a 5 room big house and luxury cars.
He had everything that make him successful but a few years ago he committed suicide after shooting his wife and children.

*WHAT WENT WRONG?*

California Institute of Clinical Psychology Studied his case and found “what went wrong?”

The researcher met the boy's friends and family and found that he lost his job due to America’s economic crisis and he had to sit without a job for a long time. After even reducing his previous salary amount, he didn't get any job. Then his house installment broke and he and his family lost the home. they survived a few months with less money and then he and his wife together decided to commit suicide. He first shot his wife and children and then shot himself.

The case concluded that the man was Programmed for success but he was not trained for handling failures.

Now let's come to the actual question, What are the habits of highly successful people?

First of all, there are many people who will tell you about success habits but today I want to tell you that even if you have achieved everything, yet there is a chance to lose everything, nobody knows when the next economic crisis will hit the world. The best success habit according to me is getting trained for handling failures.

I also request every parent, please not only program your child to be successful but teach them how to handle failures and also teach them proper lessons about life. Learning high-level science and maths will help them to clear competitive exams but a knowledge about life will help them to face every problem. Teach them about how money works instead of teaching them to work for money. Help them in finding their passion because these degrees will not help them in the next economic crisis and we don’t know when the next crisis will hit the world.

*"Success is a lousy teacher. Failure teaches you more."*

*_Please share with other parents._*

It's nice.

Ok so, anything?

Rich4god:
In Nigeria, most people believe that when you have money, you are successful. But there are people that leave a more successful life, even without getting rich.

Yeah.

livebyday:
It's a wholelistic perspective

It's a combination of all, societal value , career, financial, family , religious , philanthropy, a legacy and social standing

When all these boxes are thicked them truly I consider one successful

It's good you summarised it well.

Now, does person who becomes so successful financially through favorable opportunies, chances and luck fits in to the definition of success you gave?...in addition to the previous comment you made.

Success encompasses many things not the way society has made us to believe.

livebyday:
This thread is pure unadulterated absolute rubbish!!

I have seen men who thick all these boxes and yet are very successful

Infact I know so many .


Example let's use one of my drinking buddies ,his name is let's say guy x
Guy x is as planless as they come , he rolls along life like a ball, he has a seven figure job, he is a regional manager , so incompetent that the CEO insults him in every management meeting , his team.members take him for granted but some how his department always meets their target , he's department has won the most awards

His team are always rude to him but they are some of the best in the entire company.

He Interviewed them but didn't take it seriously as he does with all things it's always a joke

Yet whenever the company has down sized his name is never there

It's so bad that one day he flew to Abuja for a RSM and the CEO saw him and asked "wow you still work here ?" This was 6 years ago

He is just a bugglimg idiot whom is totally favored even though he doesn't believe in giving charity doesn't go to worship and hadly ever prays and he is an arsehole who uses the F word alot even infront of his kids

He last went to church 19 years ago, he only prays on Christmas, new years Eve and his birthday or in a meeting where they are praying

He drinks every time , he is terrible with money , he can't keep a secret , he is dirty , he lies for the stupidest reasons

What baffles me is how he met his wife , she works in Chevron , infact when he met her she had just finished school and he didn't know she had a superb background

One thing led to another they started dating , play like play she got married while hiding her back ground today she works in Chevron they have two kids

I mean this guy can't give good advise to a ten year old

Yet favor follows him , he graduated with a third class no master's but he has kept his job.

He has no plans whatsoever he can't even sit down and make one up

But some how life always surrounds him with those who can get everything done

He says to me sometimes that "bro how did I get so lucky ?"

I look at this chubby mess of a man and I answer

"Life just doesn't add up sometimes "

He is the reason why I tell people motivational books are rubbish , I tell people threads like this are nonsese

Do you know how he got the job? I recall he told me back then he did badly in the interview and I wasn't surprised.

But we where relaxing in my house and he got the call to resume

Even he was surprised, guess what? After he resumed he discovered the person they selected somehow his phone was off for over two weeks they tried the second person and whom turned out was hospitalized in the clinic the CEO got impatient and told them to call the third person. But there was no third person.... they just picked any of the resumes of those that failed and it turned out to be my buddy

Listen forget all the stuff people say.. my buddy's life has taught me that life isn't black and white

It isn't Everytime that 1+1=2

Life sometimes just decided to favor you

I mean that guy has never fasted or prayed for anything in his life. He just his best and grabs a bottle of beer then forget everything

Somehow everything just works I'm his favor

Anyway, in the of journey of success, favour and luck have their own place (s).

But what's your own definition of success?

If you watched the film featuring ayam'matanga, ( I am at anger ), and you weren't really scared then you must have been a stubborn kid while growing up .

tenderheart:
Nobody remembered *IDE ESU

Lol... I do, you also completed the whole discs?

Whether the drugs will be effective or not, African mentality will always thrive.. isn't this a good time for all African countries to judiciously unite and work something good out? and if at least the glory of Africa as a whole can be somehow restored.

And which group of scientists is the president reffering to? the sector the government has failed to develop with great investments, even before now?...lol... thank God they now believe that scientific research sector exists.

@OP, the summary would have done the job.

This no be time to dey shame abeg, everything will be sorted out after the pandemic pls!

Nairalandmonika:
Guy stop saying what u don't know, u are not a doctor. U should maybe ask a doctor b4 dishing out wrong information.

Diseases do get resistance to drugs when u take them too much, a doctor has confirmed thing to me.

When u take a certain antibiotics too much at a time the diseases u are fighting will become resistance to the antibiotics.

Thesame thing happened with malaria and chloroquine. That was why doctors stop prescribing chloroquine. Malaria became resistance to chloroquine for certain individuals.

You can ask a doctor to confirm instead of just typing what u don't know.

Yes, but it's the organism causing the diseases that usually become resistant to most anti-microbial drugs.

Lots of commenters gave people like us hard time reading the comments.. but why do you people keep quoting the long post? most especially@the mid -way...na wa o . ..just a simple @moniker tag will do it.

Anyway, having a good successful mentor (by both parties) stand a good chance of reducing chaos when married. Like someone he/she respects, listens to or can easily relate to when small issues like these rise up.

To lead any man or a being is actually difficult, a reason why you can't change anyone if they are really not ready to change.

However, people keep trampling statement or verse--
Proverbs 31:30 "Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.".

This is the truth many find hard to believe... Only God can make woman who lives better than man do submit to her husband. Why? naturally, an average woman will misbehave has they're programmed to be..(like a someone said above).

In this generation, making God the foundation of marriage will safe one of funny stories that touch.. even an average marriage counselor will tell you that.

Else, be prepared for the game....

The OP really tried anyway if at all it's all true.

Asour:
Does God specifically tell people who (the Person) to marry.
I know he acquiesces to people's proposal BUT does he really instruct who to marry?

How come we never saw this is in the Bible?

This is just an aside though but many people make this claim. The question now is if God specifically defines people to marry other people then those who have made wrong choices in life and then died, became really sick or mentally depraved have all "left" their God defined partners stranded. isn't it.

Or does God keep changing his mind— about 'the right partner' —when this happens.

Not really, but the understanding of God's mind, interests, words and knowledge can shape or influence one's decision when it comes to picking the right one.... the understanding influences the lens through which we see the world.

It is a country where prayer is always needed for a meaningful success otherwise, every single thing forms the forces that constitute all sort of clogs.
This morning I was deep on thoughts about how I would clear backlog off my kids's assignments. I had enrolled them in online classes where the watch video tutorials and then do some assignmmet. Despite the money we pay monthly, this thing has never been seamless, not because the tutors are not deviverinh bit electricity and Internet have become so much obstacles.
At times, when you put on the gen to power computers for the kids, the internet will not be able to do jack. And the first question now will be "what network" - baseless mantra! I have Tris all the networks and when I subscribed to the bigger broadband names, they charges are killing. What in the Nam of a country is this?
The worst thing is that almost every stakeholder apart from being so inept and avaricious, behaves like he is under a kind of spell. I would watch an AEDC official go to the transfoemer that supplies us light every now and then to fix something like a fuse whenever the light is gone. And the light will normally go off with a laud spark of fire at the transformer. The happens too often maybe after 2 days , they would come in their van and fix that same thing. Are we talking of he generator notice that won't even let them listen to the lectures.
What in Pete's name is this kind of country? That chip that the come to fix, is their no permanent or better one that could make the light more steady . how did the west conquer electricity centuries back and also achieved stray internet?
I have still wondered what is really wrong in this country?

That's part of the reality in this country and we've got no choice than to face it... we just need to remain optimistic..

E go better.

If you finish school without learning any skill or handwork, you will understand why Nigerian pledge has"So help me God "

Everyone now understands that, and can't people just be appreciative for once? Or you think studying to achieve such feat was an easy task?

Now, in addition to the first class degree, she can now even concentrate and channel her focus towards a better lucrative skill...of which she stands a chance to be even more successful.

First class+ marketable skill+ right connections.

Who lose?

The wickedness in human mind is alarming.... and this is not ordinary...News like this scare many good people away from our dear country.

Who doesn't want peace of mind for himself and family?.

@junior20202020

Don't start with all those physical remedies being recommended to you. You need a spiritual liberation but, if you refuse you will still go back to it as you've become a prey to your mind. The imaginations will also not spare you. That's the truth.

You need a supreme being to liberate your mind from that shackles you've subjected it to, d reason why drugs won't be effective. Just go to any trusted man of God you know to counsel, pray and do deliverance for you (make sure you're convinced it's the right one o)... trust me you will be refreshed totally and the peace your soul craves for will be restored...

Also thank your destiny that still wants a new live for you.
Just forget these psychologists here and there trying to analyze your emotions for you... and those comparing themselves, it's your life and your future it's important...so, do the needful.

It's your choice though...

Abeg who voting epp?

This is indeed turning to a game.. so if majority say, 80% voted against lockdown then, would they have followed and allowed the mass to roam aimlessly even while face mask and social is not efficient?... how clueless!

Whether it's lockdown or not economy will still be wrecked... it's the level of severity that differs.

Now for a government who is really ready for development, the lockdown will have to be established with adequate provisions and palliatives for the innocent citizens.. while the WAY OUT is tirelessly being worked upon through all possible means.... as fast as possible !

MrnelsonA:
This one off me ooh

That's 1/10 of what their MCB students face almost in each semester in the same faculty...ask anyone you know there.

A nice write-up to commend. But, it's kind of a fictional assumption which can never occur..Life and Earth existence is more of spiritual backup...as good and enlightening science is, it has only succeeded in analysing and examining the already finished work of a supreme being...God...

This shows that the total number of cases they claim to record on daily basis is not 100% true that they're all COVID-19 confirmed patients, because if they are, they won't be discharged as there's no confirmed vaccine yet.... I'm sure it gets mixed with those showing malaria or common cold symptoms....abi how them take cure them? which drug them use?.....

It should have been NEW SUSPECTED CASES RECORDED....stop scaring the hell out of people.

In short, treat everyone with respect, an average person you meet has enough story to tell.

Only a fool says there's no God!, but wait o, how can you say God doesn't exist when you don't have power over your life and spirit?

I think we don't have to wait until experience teaches a lesson before we do.

I dey come , make I book space..

Which region should produce Nigeria’s next President in 2023?

Photocredit: ripplesNigeria

That's how problem and sentiments start.

But we can start with someone who is visionary enough to focus on the key aspects where Nigeria is lacking.... someone who is bold and courageous enough to identify Nigeria problem, draw it out and focus on the development of right solution... most importantly, while not minding those who might take his gratitude when voted out, but really passionate about constructive continuity borne out of un -selfish interest.
