*VALUE ADDED WIFE (VAW)*

Many think that Jacob loved Rachael because she was beautiful, beauty only attracts a man to a woman but what determines his true love for a woman goes beyond beauty. *Rachael was not just beautiful, she was industrious per excellent.*

Why do we have a lot of beautiful ladies today yet no husband? Because beauty without value and virtue is like a smoke. What impressed and attracted Jacob to Rachael was her industriousness.

While her brothers and elder sister Leah were at home, Rachael singlehandedly brought her father's flock to the well. That was where Jacob met her for the first time. *"No sensible man can resist a woman who is beautiful and industrious".*

What made a man worked for 7 years for the woman he loved and yet felt like he just worked for 7 days? *Value!*

My man doesn't respect me, is because you are not a Value-Added-Woman (VAM).

Do you realized that Jacob did not pay Leah's bride price? They gave him Leah as bonus. Because she has no value. This was why Jacob had no respect for her and her children, hence he set them as first entourage when he was going to meet his angry brother.

*If you forced yourself on a man, he may never respect you. If he got you cheaply, he will never respect you. If you are not adding value to his life, he will never respect you.*

Even after marriage, Leah was begging and buying the attention of her own husband. Rachael was practically in control of Jacob.

Rachael was a shepherd in the midst of her siblings, *a profession meant for men.* She was in control of her father's business. This was what glued Jacob to her.

*Gen 29:9* *_Jacob was still talking with them when Rachel arrived with her father’s flock, for she was a shepherd._*

How can boys be in the house and a girl (last daughter of the house) be the one to tend her father's flock and family business? *Industriousness!*

After Jacob slept with Leah, he still went for Rachael. *S*x don't keep a man, value does.*

rebuilding your prayer alter
1kings18:30
Before the fire fell, Elijah rebuilt the altar.
the alter is a place of sacrifice,
a spiritual dinning table
it's a place of power and strenght.
God loves and dwells on the alter.
prayer alter is any place where you meet with God.
*your alter is your power base.
anywhere you call on God consistently is your alter .. extra ability comes via d alter
alter is a place of angelic traffic.
(james5:16-19)
* prayer is a point of contact btw divinity and humanity.
*prayer is the only thing that succeed when everything fails.
*prayer is the most ancient but ever potent force of a believer.
*prayer is the only thing that satan cannot do.
when your prayer alter Is down,strange things become to happen, the holy spirit will cease to speak to you, your spirit becomes distracted easily,
*when your prayer alter is down,your thoughts begin to wander, near success syndrome, attacks becomes inevitable, you don't see visions, you get weak to pray
*when your prayer alter is down,you notice constant harassment in the dream.
*you no longer find interest in the things of God,when ur prayer alter is down.
*you begin to operate in the flesh,you take things for granted when your prayer is down.
*you notice satanic re enforcement when your prayer altar is down.
* You always have fear when your prayer alter is down..
*You notice rejection when your prayer alter is down. you can't tarry in God's presence and experience rejection.
how to rebuild your prayer altar.
1) Examine your prayer Lifestyle. check how you missed it in your prayer life.
2) Ask the Holy spirit to help you to go back to your former level or even greater than your former level.
3) Reduce your association with people... men of depth don't talk too much...if you talk to God often,you won't talk to men too much.(PS1:1-3)
4)Develop your prayer life, more to prayer and study of God's word daily... have a prayer schedule .
5) Dismantle every altar in your family that's weakening ur prayer

*7 REASONS WHY DEGREE HOLDERS ARE POOR?*

*Gbenga Adebambo*
The Guardian

BASICALLY, there are seven reasons why degree holders are poor.

*1. THEY DON’T THINK BEYOND THEIR CERTIFICATES*

Albert Einstein said, “Education is not the learning of facts, but the training of the mind to think.” Have you ever heard creativity term “Think outside the box”? One of the major reasons why most graduates are poor is simply because they can’t see and think beyond their certificates.
I have seen engineering students work as bankers. I have seen medical doctors with great skills in web and graphic designs. I have seen lawyers that are very dexterous with finances. The list is endless!

The basic truth of life is that the skills that are needed to be much sought after and become more successful in life are not really found within the walls of the classrooms. Your certificate is just a proof that you are teachable, it does not suggest what you are totally capable of doing. You are full of possibilities when you think beyond your degrees and certificates.

*2. THEY PRIORITIZE THEIR CERTIFICATES MORE THAN THEIR GIFTS AND TALENTS*

I have often advised some of my colleagues, never to leave their gifts dormant while pursuing and hunting for jobs with their certificates. There must be a complementary balance in the pursuit of your passion and in the search for jobs.

Everybody is gifted for something, but the winning edge comes from our ability to work on our gifts and bless the world with it. The very best way to develop yourself is in the direction of your natural talents and interest. In order to live a fulfilled and impactful life, we need to work harder on our gift than our job. We need to discover our gift, develop it, and sell it. Don’t bury your TALENT with your certificates.

*3. THEIR CERTIFICATES PREPARE THEM FOR A WORLD THAT NO LONGER EXIST*

It has been found that most of the skills taught in schools ar

“If somebody offers you an amazing opportunity, but you are not sure you can do it, say yes- then learn how to do it later!”- Richard Branson SCHOOL rewards people for their memory. Life rewards people for their creativity and ability to solve problems. School rewards caution, life rewards darin...

💍💍💕💖💞❤️

🤔 Before marriage, we all thought that once the knots are tied, this life go sweet die. Only you with your man/woman, enjoying, partying, shopping, doing somersaults anyhow, this, that, yen yen yen😂... Akụkọ🤣

Most of us didn't consider the pressures that would come from home keeping, financial pressure on the family, stress from inlaws, friends, coping with the demands of our jobs while securing the home front, etc.

We didn't even think that a time would come when little discussions could result to very big quarrels, and you could actually keep malice with your partner, and say to hell with him/her.

We thought having s*x everyday would just be fun since we've gotten the licence to be weird, we never imagined that we would one day be forming tayad in the oza room😀.

We thought everything would just go as planned and we will live happily ever after, never did we imagine the frustrations, the heartbreaks, the regrets, the hurtful words and actions that would one day come from our heartthrob intentionally or otherwise.

Most of us thought love texting is fun and would never cease, but here we are, sending list of things to buy, issues to be resolved, school fees, utility bills, etc 😂😂most times even forgetting to add love you at the end of the messages.

What about pillow talks, 😀. We enjoyed lots of it during courtship, discussing the future, totoring each other, giglling throughout the night, and all... We thought marriage would bring out the PhD of that aspect... 😂😂. Little did we know that sometimes we would sleep off on the couch even without having our night bath. Pillow talks haff advanced to kitchen/on-the-way-out talk😀

As you're coming out from one challenge, you're faced with another. It's like a loop, we keep going round and never getting to the end.

These things are overwhelming to a lot of people, you see wonderful sweet women becoming something else, the men most times start looking for outdoor activities

THE BENEFIT OF SEASONS.
Gen 8:22, 1st chronicle 12 :32 , Ecclesiastes 3 :1-8.

Life is all about seasons and when you don't understand seasons you can't enjoy, endure and overcome the particular season you are.🌾🌾🌾

We are meant to use every season for our advantage ☘️☘️☘️

When you are expecting a new season don't pay attention to the present one but see the future 🍓🍓

God don't waste seasons it's only men that waste seasons 🌺🌺

There are good seasons and bad seasons but it's our decisions that sustain each season 🌻🌻🌻🌻

No matter the season men are going through it doesn't last🥀🥀🥀🥀

Unpleasant seasons are meant to be times of discovery 🌷🌷🌷🌷
NOTE THIS...........

No season kills a man.... it's the man that decided to die 😂😂😂

Failures are quitters 🤹👊👊👊

The change of season is not because you are bad or good 👌👌👌👌

Never let your season define who you are (don't loose your identity)💐💐💐💐

We need to build consistency in each season. Learn to study, pray,fast, sacrifice in each season 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Learn from every seasons .....God can't take a season away without you leaning from it.....🍎🥝🍍

Season comes to reveal to us our strength and weakness 🍌🍋🍊

Keep your desired season in your heart no matter the present happenings 🍓🍒🍑

Always be prepared for your next season ( season of plenty and season of scarcity) 🍉🍈🍏🍐

Know that God is at work in every season.....Ecc 3:4🌴🌴🌴🌷🌱

Any power that is not control will become a weapon for a man's death 🌺🥀🌸

Today's learning make you tomorrow's teacher ✔️✔️✔️✔️

Big Mama we were really blessed ........we love you ma♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ Akano Juliana

Good day everyone in the house, let's crack our ribs 😀😂😂🥴At a very elaborate wedding ceremony the pastor asked if there was anyone who had any reason why the marriage shouldn't go on; it was time to stand up and speak, or forever let them hold their peace.
*The moment of utter silence was interrupted by a young beautiful woman carrying a child. She started slowly walking toward the pastor*.
Everything quickly turned to chaos. The bride slapped the groom. The groom's mother fainted. The bridal trail scooted towards the door.The groom's men huddled together like a bereaved flock, wondering how best to help save the situation.
The pastor asked the woman, "Can you tell us why you came forward? What do you have to say?"
*The woman replied, "I can't hear from the back.*"
😂😂😂😂😂

LESSON: Hold judgment until you've had all the facts🤔. However, many times we fire the shots too quickly and beautiful relationships are ruined.
HOPE WE WERE ALL IN CHURCH TODAY?
😆

*PUT ON THE LIGHT FOR OTHERS TO SEE*

"One day I visited a friend of mine,Thomas Mouko, who is blind. And because it was night he did something that taught me a lot.

Upon entering the house, Thomas switched on the light.
And I asked him "Thomas, why did you put on the light yet you can't see?"...Thomas laughed for a long time, switched off the light and went to the kitchen, after a short while he came with a pot of tea and eggs, placed them perfectly well on the table and switched on the light again

What Thomas said made me shed tears because he said to me, Nelly!...... I did not put on the light for my own sake or because I needed it, I did it for you because you needed it since you are not blind like me".

Then he asked me, "Nelly *How many times have you switched off the light for other people and denied them an opportunity to see light just because you yourself do not need it?". I thought about that so deeply

I ask you the same question today, *How many times have you put off your lights and denied others an opportunity to see the light while they are in darkness*???

❌Why would you let your accounts grow to millions while your brother's child is going barefooted?

❌Why would you put clothes you don't wear in the bin while someone out there is almost going naked?

❌Why would food rot in your house while there is someone out there sleeping hungry?

❌Why will you see a business opportunity and hide it without sharing with your friends when you know you won't use it?

❌Why will you be in a position to help someone get promotion or a new job and you keep it because the person is not from your family, tribe or religion?

❌Why will you defame your brother or sister just because you don't want someone to help them?

*Each of The Questions Above Is Equivalent To Switching Off The Light!*.

These are the things we should be mindful of as Humans.

Let's start focusing on what pleases Our Creator And Humanity.

*This is true religion, helping the needy and being
