THE LEADER'S DIARY

Good Decision Making, Beyond Human Rationality

Recently I had to do some proofreading for someone and I promised to deliver it that day which happened to be an evening church service day. By the time I ought to be going for the church service, I had barely finished the proofreading so I 'rationally' thought that I could just buy off some church service time so as to ensure that I completed the proofreading: a decision that my spirit didn't buy to. By the time I was done, church service was over and I felted very angry and unrest with myself. but the matter became worst when all of a sudden rain began to fall and I was caught between going back home, which was closer and delivering the proofread work. Either way, I was going to be beaten by the rain! Just then I fully realised my folly because had it been I went for the service, I would not be beaten by the rain and would still have completed the proofreading while waiting for the rain to subside. Well, it was already an analysis too late as I ran helplessly under the heavy storm  with no shelter nearby to protect me and no vehicle willing to stop to my rescue. All I prayed was, "Lord, forgive me my trespasses and have mercy on me!" and God indeed  had mercy because I had in the bag with me a laptop, a mobile phone and all my original certificates(both academic and business) among other documents but none was destroyed by the storm that lasted lasted for more than an hour. Glory to God!

Here is the lesson: regardless of how rational we may be as mortals, we really can't know all but there is God's Spirit(The Holy Spirit) that bears witness with our spirit as believers. He is called the Spirit of Truth because He knows and can reveal all truth. But it is left to us to either follow the leading of the Spirit or our own human faculty. But let it be known that the human spirit is fallible but the Holy Spirit is infallible. You too can have Holy Spirit in you. All it takes is believing, accepting and confessing Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour.

THE LEADER’S DIARY

Plan for Total Restoration

‘For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it?’ _Luke 14:28

Welcome to April. God actually promised us that this is our month of total restoration and I believe it with all my heart. So when I woke up this morning, I took a pen and paper and wrote a summary of all I expect this month in form of a prayer request and I faith-fully threw it into the prayer basket when I got to church this morning.

Friends, the two greatest arts of faith are planning and expectation. Planning give God a parameter to exceed. Ephesians 3:20 says, “Now unto Him that is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us”. So if there is no plan then God has nothing to exceed. So sit down, draw that plan, commit it to God and watch Him exceed it!

Welcome to a happy new month where all your plans committed to God will be exceeded by Him to His glory!

THE LEADER'S DIARY -20th February 2016

The Woman, A god to the Man

'And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.' _Genesis 2:18

One of God's work in our lives as humans is the role of a helper.The Bible is filled with testimonies of men acknowledging God Almighty as such: In Psalms 54:4, David notes,"Behold, God is mine helper: the Lord is with them that uphold my soul." while 1Samuel 7:12,Samuel addressed God as ' Jehovah Ebenezer' saying "Hitherto hath the Lord helped us".These are just drops admits the ocean of verses in the Bible that refer to God as a helper for mankind.

However the opening verse projects a scenerio where even God identified a need for a specially designed and programmed helper for the man(I am referring to a male in this instance).In other word,even God identified and agreed that it is no His place to function as helper in that case so He created another 'god'- the woman.I stand to be corrected but I insist that there are certain areas of a man life where no one,not even God, can help him other than his woman. No wonder the Bible admits that he that finds a wife,finds a good thing and obtains favour from God.This verse simply implies that the favour is an act of help and that act of help and its benefits God has deposited in the woman as a wife.

A man desiring to rule his world must see his wife as a god, only inferior to God Almighty, and treat her as such.As Pastor E.A. Adeboye notes,"A helper connotes an assistance but not an inferiority". Otherwise will we also say that God is our rag because He is also our helper?

However,wherever there is a god, there is a devil.Likewise,a woman,if care is not taken, might end up as a devil in a man's house all the name of a wife.She that must be treated like a god must first show herself worthy of such an elevated office. As a woman, you must know and adhere to the fact that your purpose in marriage is to help and not to head.Your coming in should bring favour and betterment into the life of the man.Such of course requires a lot of spiritual,mental and emotional sacrifice. As a leader of influence in the house,you must influence everything to work in line with favour which of course is domicile in you.

In conclusion, please marriage is not a pension plan neither is the man your gratuity as a woman.On the other hand,the woman is not your slave sir.She is your god, sent by your God to you, a divine ambassador. So treat her as such!

GLIFE FOUNDATION PROMOTES POSITIVE LEADERSHIP AND MASS COMPUTER LITERACY: WOULD YOU NOT RATHER BE A PART?

With the dominance of Information Communication Technology (ICT) in global affairs, it will not be an overstatement to say that ICT compliance is a necessity for every individual who desires to be productive and relevant in our modern day society. The application of ICT currently cut across every sphere of human endeavour and Africa, particularly Nigeria, is not left out of the wave of digitalization. In 2014, Joint Admission Matriculation Board (JAMB), the organization in charge of conducting the mandatory entry examination into higher institutions in Nigeria, introduced a computer-based option of testing candidates intending to gain admission into higher institutions. By 2015, this computer-based had been made compulsory, replacing the analog option that existed the previous year. The country’s electoral system has also introduced the electronic voting system. Corporate organizations are not left out of this computerization process thus making ICT compliance not just an added advantage, as it used to be, but a necessity for being employable in the country. Unfortunately, a field survey done in a selected higher institutions in Enugu by our organization showed that a whopping 80% cannot effectively operate basic user friendly softwares like Microsoft Office (i.e. MS Word, Excel, etc). In the rural area, the case is even worst as the rural dwellers do not even have access to computers let alone knowing how to operate them. This project therefore intends to solve this challenge by providing youths with basic computer trainings free of charge while integrating fundamental positive value orientation in the training curriculum. This addition is aimed at imputing positive value system in participants with the view to reduce corruption and other social vices ravaging the society as well as raise young leaders that are physically, mentally and spiritually sound.

The target beneficiaries of this project are basically youths between the ages of 15-35 years. The main goal of this project is to raise youths with positive leadership values that are ICT literates. This is to be achieved by running a two (2) months free computer training in selected communities. 
2015 edition hosted in Akegbe Ugwu in Nkanu-West Local Government Area in Enugu State, Nigeria had over fifty (50) beneficiaries comprising of basically youths. Enjoy the photo clips:

The future and hope of Africa and the world at large is in our hands. We will either make it or mar it. It is all the function of choice. Enough of the unnecessary blame game, it is time to step forward and take action. With enough passion and development, we are sure to turn our scars to stars, our shame to fame, and our obstacles to miracles. The change begins with us.

In life, there are various forms of investments we can plunge our time, efforts and resources into but the most profitable of them all is investment in human life. To transform a person’s life to the point that he becomes useful to himself, his family, society and creator is the key to joy unspeakable. True success is helping others succeed. As William Ward puts it, “There are three keys to more abundant living: caring for others, daring for others and sharing with others”. So, would you not rather be a part of this change vision?
