We are busy planning our future so far ahead that we often forget it has already been planned for us by the Almighty. So do your best no matter what situation you're in. But don't be dissatisfied with what's going on because the Almighty is indeed the Best of Planners!

I have arrived in #Nigeria for programs in #Kebbi & #Sokoto. I’m deeply saddened by news of the tragedy of the oil tanker fire and the loss of lives. May the Almighty grant ease to all affected. May He comfort those who lost family members. #PrayforNigeria

Almighty. On this blessed day, make us among those who, when we know the truth, we’ll follow it, and when we see falsehood, we’ll avoid it. We ask You to have Mercy on us, make things easy for us and help us to do the things that please You!

Abuse is totally unacceptable Abuse should never be allowed under any circumstance. It can never be justified. We must always stand up for what’s right. We must always defend and protect the victims at all cost. Remember, the Almighty is always with the righteous!

A good rule to live by - slow down when you’re angry. Slow down when you’re hurt. These are times when you’re most likely to say mean and hurtful things if you let your emotions get the better of you. So save yourself a lot of pain and heartache with this simple rule.

The Almighty’s timing is always perfect! You want to rush things to suit your timing but things may fall apart because you don’t know what He knows. Remember, His timing may differ from yours. It may not make sense but when you look back, you’ll see how He planned it so well!

Society teaches our women how their bodies have to look a certain way to become acceptable & their skin has to be a certain complexion. We forget that the Almighty has made us in the best way. All He wants is a beautiful heart! And we’re so busy beautifying everything else!

Don't sweep things under the carpet. Address problems head on. Because if we don’t, it will fester and get worse. Soon we will face an even bigger problem. We are not immune to issues facing society in general. The sooner we realise this, the faster we can work towards change!

Don't marry someone with the intention of changing them, or trying to fix their bad ways. You might just end up disappointed and messing up your marriage. Marry someone who shares your views on building a home together, based on fundamentals set out by the Almighty!

Remember, Satan always wants us to feel despair. The Almighty doesn’t. He knows we are weak. That’s why if we show Him that we’re sincere in our efforts to get close to Him, He will show us the way back and He will surely forgive us. He is the Most Merciful!

When you see a family member, a friend or someone you know make a mistake, correct him, guide him to do what’s right and pray for him. Do this in a gentle manner. Don’t mock and insult him, making it easier for Satan to mess his mind even more!

Remember, the Almighty does not expect us to have all the answers. He knows, as humans, our knowledge is limited. He expects us to have unwavering faith in Him; knowing that He is always there and that He rewards those who seek Him.

Some will continue to hate you for no apparent reason. Instead of constructive criticism, they’re out to destroy people with their comments. Show them you’re happy with who you are by doing more of what they hate. Show them that you’re not affected by their immaturity!

Stay clear of the herd mentality. Why should you do it just because everyone else is doing it? There’s no need to fit in. Let society say you’re the odd one out. Remember, at the end of the day, it’s better to walk alone than with a crowd headed in the wrong direction!

Fear, insecurity & doubt will continue to plague you as long as you listen to the whisperings of Satan & all that society tells you. That’s what this world does! Courage and confidence can only come when your heart is attached to the Almighty. He will strengthen your spirit!

Not everyone would like you to succeed. Some may throw dirt in your path. That’s to be expected. Don’t worry. Brush it off, shake it off. Get up again. That’s the mark of a true champion. Ignore the naysayers. Keep moving forward. You’ll get there.

I strongly condemn the #assassination attempt on our President #Mnangagwa today in #Zimbabwe. This is totally unacceptable. Perpetrators should face the full wrath of the law. May the Almighty grant him & the injured a speedy recovery. My condolences to those who’ve perished.

Being at peace is everything. It’s not just a feeling. It’s a way of life. It shows in everything that you do. It shows how close you are to the One who made you. It shows you’ve surrendered to the Almighty & accept everything that He has decreed. It’s the most powerful thing!

When something doesn’t feel right, don’t do it, leave it, walk away from it. Trust your judgement, your intuition, your feeling! It’s the Almighty’s way of guiding you and steering you away from what’s not right. You don’t owe anyone any explanation. Just do it.
