Change Your Thinking, Change Your Life.




Life is not just party and pleasure always. It is also pain and despair. The choice is either to act like a victor or like a victim. It is not our position but our disposition that determines our destiny. Adversity builds or reveals character. Under adverse circumstances, some people break records and others break themselves. The greatest buildings have strongest foundations. People with character, integrity, good values and positive attitude are the right foundation for the success of any Nation. In other words the success of an individual, society, or a nation, depends on the quality of their people. Most people fail not because of lack of ability or intelligence but because of lack of desire, direction, dedication, discipline, diligence and divine attitude. Divine attitude refers to the consistency of godly Character that matches words and actions. A person with a Divine character is like a fruit of all season. Ability without the Divine attitude is wasted energy, good look without godliness is irritation and Position and Tittles without Grace and Love is tyranny and tragedy. Start our day with God’s thoughts. Bible says “Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.” Romans 12:2. (NLT) Our Thoughts Determine our Life.For as he thinks in his heart, so is he.” (Proverbs 23:7)  To get what you want, change who you are by simply changing the way you think & act. "People do not attract that which they want, but that which they are." To attract good people, you must be good. To attract godly people, you must be godly. To attract faithful people, you must be faithful. Instead of going to work on them, you go to work on yourself.  Act like the person you want to become. Before you can do something, you first must be something. Strive not to become a man of success, but rather seek to become a man of God and value. You become valuable when you value what God value. Transformation comes when you allow God’s Word to change your thinking. As your thinking changes, your feelings, decisions, actions and attitude will change. “And be constantly renewed in the spirit of your mind. And put on the new nature created in God's image, in true righteousness and holiness.” Eph. 4:23-24. (Amplified Bible) Divine Character is the foundation upon which all else is built.
