"I HAVE A DREAM"

Martin Luther King, Jr., gave a famous speech called ''I Have A Dream.'' We have all heard those powerful words and his soul stirring, passionate delivery that is timeless in its ability to inspire. In fact, no matter how often I hear that speech,
I always get goose bumps because of the power that emanates from it. But as I listened I started to realize the pure importance of these four words: I-Have-a-Dream, I-Have-a-Dream.
 

He didn't say ''I had a dream,'' but rather ''I have a dream.'' Why? Because to be great your dream must be ongoing. To say ''I had a dream'' implies that the dream has come and gone. But to have a dream means that it is ongoing, it is continuous. Do you have a dream? Is there a dream burning in your mind and spirit that consumes you and drives you to pursue it, and to eventually achieve it? I also noticed Dr. King did not say, ''I have a wish.'' Why? Because wishes have no substance and are usually unattainable—like those who say ''I wish I could live my life over again,'' or ''I wish I were a child again.''
 

Most of us have thrown pennies into a wishing well or wished upon a star and never really expected those wishes to come true. They were just our fantasies. But a dream has substance. We dream of losing weight or buying a home or one day becoming the President of Nigeria. Dreams can, and do, come true! Don't be confused between a wish and a dream. Remember some people want it to happen, some wish it would happen, and others make it happen! Dream big dreams. Think big thoughts and make it happen! Dreams are the seed for success. To make your dreams come true you must move on them, take action on them, pursue them, go after them; otherwise they are simply pipe dreams or wishes, which have no substance. A dream mixed with confidence, determination, persistence, strong desire, and action cannot be denied!"

Funmibi Ojo On ABSTINENCE

There is a common saying by those in the world as regards pre-marital sex: 'Abstinence is the best policy; but if you can't hold yourself, use condom." But does this overrule what God has said? Absolutely NO! The Word of God says: "FLEE FORNICATION"... It is a command, God does not permit us to manage the 'situation' or help twist it! His Word is crystal clear...FLEE; RUN from it! It is a great sin against God's temple which is our body!

Sometime ago, as I was returning from church in the night, I saw those 'stripped ladies' and those waiting to pick them! Those ladies were looking all 'worn and torn', and I said to myself...'So some men will still have something to do with these ladies? What a pity for those kind of men!!! Then someone said: those ladies only come out in the night; some of them are on demonic assignment, some of them are on revenge mission to transfer the diseases they have gotten! Then I said, can condom ever stop the evils that comes with this act? NEVER! Come to think of it, have we ever sat down and wondered why the world also encourages abstinence as the best policy? Oh, the wise ones will agree that indeed there are lot of dangers attached to fornication/adultery; but the world had to provide a 'die-slowly' alternative for the adamant/rebellious ones by saying 'use condom'. Yoruba people call it 'rubber idabobo'; but ki lo n dabo? Protects nothing! Fornication /adultery leaves the 'doorway of your life' exposed to danger, sorrows, incurable diseases, God's wrath and even gives you an express-route to hell if you refuse to repent! When one neglects Christ's warning against fornication/adultery, it exposes such life/destiny to the attacks of the enemy. Fornication is a serious sin, it can be likened to 'taking oneself like an animal to the slaughter house'. 1Corinthians 10:8: "Neither let us commit fornication, as some of them committed, and fell in one day three and twenty thousand".Proverbs 6:32,33(NLT) says: "But the man who commits adultery(and fornication) is an utter fool, for he destroys himself. He will be wounded and disgraced. His shame will never be erased". Oh, that the youths/singles especially will run as fast as they can from this evil act! My heart indeed bleeds for the youths of this generation; and I pray this burden will be passed on to those with the 'message' so that they can open their mouths and preach without fear!
A lot of youths are trapped in this evil act! Someone needs to read/hear this! Also, to those in courtship, it is not a license to engage in this act, until you are married, you are not married! Peradventure you are involved in sinful act of fornication/adultery or whatever sin, I'll implore you to repent now to avoid God's wrath; His mercy is still available. There's more to you than just living a reckless life and walking on a path that has a dead end. You have a God to please, a purpose to fulfil, a mandate to accomplish, a national/global impact to make, generations are waiting for your manifestation...Why would you want to live a wasted life and end up in Hell? REPENT NOW or FACE THE MUSIC! Let's drop the system of the world that says: 'Abstinence or use condom'...IT IS: ABSTINENCE or ABSTINENCE! God's grace is sufficient for us...We will overcome!
