Success in business requires training and discipline and hardwork. But if you are not frightened by these things,the opportunities are just as great today as they ever were.

‭2 Timothy 1:7 NIV‬ [7] For the Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.

#Repost When you embrace a consistent prayer life and begin to exercise your spirit, one of the things you need to know and learn is the act of waiting on the Lord - this will help you not to put a time tag on when you want to get answers to your requests from God but to trust Him that He has your best in mind. Give attention to the thought process of making a decision - choices made in anxiety, fear, pity, desperation, and haste tend to be wrong choices. The moment you get anxious to do something, it is a red flag, and such anxiety should be converted into prayers. Any man who puts a time tag to when he wants to get an answer from God has given Satan a loophole to weary him. God is the king of kings, and He is not moved by your situation, tears, or emotions; what moves God is His word because His integrity lies in His word if He has said it, then He will do it. God wants to be believed, and what a man of prayer that exercises his spirit should do is to believe the word of God and that God is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. When a man has faith in God and His word such man is prepared for answers to prayers. When a man has faith in God and His word such man is prepared for answers to prayers. In getting answers to prayers, you have to discipline your mind to move in alignment with your spirit because God inspires your spirit, but you receive understanding in your heart. As God inspires your spirit, He also wants your mind to come under the influence of the inspiration so that your heart can be flooded with light from the throne of God. You don't pray to summon God, but what you are doing whenever you pray is to wait on the Lord. It's while waiting on the Lord that your anxiety and the sense of haste that darkness has stirred up in your soul will leave. Many people desire to be married and are currently anxious and desperately in search of a life and love partner to marry, therefore, before you fall in love and get married, please listen to this wise counsel first as taught by Apostle Arome Osayi - when you desire a life partner for marriage, don't make the decision in anxiety. Here is one thing you should know before you marry him or her: https://youtu.be/Z8aLofaSeHM?si=kmiAz... An anxious person will not hear God because the way of faith doesn't include haste. If you become anxious about things and permit haste in your soul, what you are doing is making a choice for depression to possess your soul to manipulate your thoughts and mind, but to avoid that, what you need to do is to go in the way of prayer instead of being anxious. (Philippians 4: 6) - you will be glad you watch this message for it will bless you greatly. The link to the message is https://youtu.be/Z8aLofaSeHM?si=kmiAz
