Godliness: is Respect, Reverence, Piety towards God, Living a holy life. Contentment: is a perfect condition of life in which no aid or support is needed for basic functionality, where the person is able to provide for himself at least all the basic necessities of life, where the person has sufficient for his needs (and possibly wants). In the words of Dan Lok, it’s the state of F U Money. The person is in all human description Self Sufficient not necessarily needing human help to live & survive. The person is self-sufficient and man enough. Let’s be truthful it sucks when you are so spiritual even the devil knows your name but you need to beg your friends to eat. Your Godliness rapidly becomes a Shameful thing and before long you will definitely abandon the Godliness to find food. God never planned it like that, He as a matter of Truth wishes to see you prosper on both life and Godliness levels. For many years I actually thought contentment is simply accepting whatev...
Growing up in a vibrant prayer culture, I often observed a unique style of prayer among the elders. Their lips moved, their bodies sometimes swayed with emotion, yet their voices remained a near inaudible murmur, especially amidst the fervent shouts echoing through the church. For years, this silent intensity was a mystery. However, with time and personal experience, I've come to understand this as a profound form of prayer – a deeply focused and passionate communion with God. My first biblical glimpse into this method came from the story of Hannah in 1 Samuel 1:12-15.

While many of us lift our voices in fervent supplication, there's a powerful place for this quiet, focused, contemplative, and meditativ...
I have come to realize that power is a major desire of every man. It is the root of many things we do, it is the motive behind most of our actions. For instance:- We actually love money because it gives us power, it enables us do most of the things we want to do without stress that is why we love money… most of us that is. We lord It over people to prove and show how powerful we actually are. We even gather knowledge so as to become more powerful because we know knowledge is power. Look for example at most people that fornicate if well analysed we realize the reason they do it is not because they love the other women, they usually do it because the wife has stifled the power of the man, she second guesses many of his actions and limits what he is allowed and this behavior is completely against the nature of a man for man was created to dominate (Gen 1:28). This in fact is why God in the bible instructed the Christian wife to submit to her husband ( Ephesians 5:22 ; Colo...
