Genesis 12:2-3 And I will make you a great nation, And I will bless you, And make your name great; And so you shall be a blessing; And I will bless those who bless you, And the one who curses you I will curse And in you all the families of the earth will be blessed." Genesis 17:1-8 Now when Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to Abram and said to him, "I am God Almighty; Walk before Me, and be blameless. "I will establish My covenant between Me and you, And I will multiply you exceedingly." Abram fell on his face, and God talked with him, saying, read more. "As for Me, behold, My covenant is with you, And you will be the father of a multitude of nations. "No longer shall your name be called Abram, But your name shall be Abraham; For I have made you the father of a multitude of nations. "I will make you exceedingly fruitful, and I will make nations of you, and kings will come forth from you. "I will establish My covenant be...

This is the testimony of a young man born blind who got his sight when Jesus ministered to him. The authorities of his day found fault and offense with Jesus and considered Jesus a sinner and as such could not have healed with God’s power. But the young man had a different impression about their view and do not accept to be intimidated to believe this label (that Jesus was as sinner). 23 Therefore his parents said, “He is of age; ask him.” 24 So they again called the man who was blind, and said to him, “Give God the glory! We know that this Man is a sinner.” 25 He answered and said, “Whether He is a sinner or not I do not know. One thing I know: that though I was blind, now I see.” 26 Then they said to him again, “What did He do to you? How did He open your eyes?” 27 He answered them, “I told you already, and you did not listen. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you also want to become His disciples?” John 9:23-27 Of ...

Acts 3:1-8 Now Peter and John were going up to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour (3:00 p.m.), 2 and a man who had been unable to walk from birth was being carried along, whom they used to set down every day at that gate of the temple which is called [ a ] Beautiful, so that he could beg alms from those entering the temple. 3 So when he saw Peter and John about to go into the temple, he began asking [them] for coins. 4 But Peter, along with John, stared at him intently and said, “Look at us!” 5 And the man began to pay attention to them, eagerly expecting to receive something from them. 6 But Peter said, “Silver and gold I do not have; but what I do have I give to you: In the name (authority, power) of Jesus Christ the Nazarene—[begin now to] walk and go on walking!” 7 Then he seized the man’s right hand with a firm grip and raised him up. ...

Maturity in psychology is the ability to respond to the environment in an appropriate manner. This response is generally learned rather than instinctive. It is expected that it advances with age; that is to say an older person should show or exhibit a higher level of maturity than a younger one but is not always the case for there are a lot of exceptions. Maturity is an attitude built by experience. In my country; Nigeria, it was a weekend with a holiday for us as Monday was a work free day in remembrance of the return to democratic rule. For me it was a very busy one with clustered activities. This Tuesday morning, I woke up about few minutes to 5 am and felt like going back to sleep but responsibility advised me to get up from bed anyway. Later about some minutes to 6 am, I woke up my 3 years old daughter – Chimamanda to prepare her for school as I usually take her to school on my way to office. Guess what she told me, she said I want to sleep again. I was surprised...

An apprenticeship is a system of training a new generation of practitioners of a trade or profession with on-the-job training and often some accompanying study (classroom work and reading). Apprenticeship also enables practitioners to gain a license to practice in a regulated profession. Come to me and I will give you rest—all of you who work so hard beneath a heavy yoke. Wear my yoke—for it fits perfectly—and let me teach you; for I am gentle and humble, and you shall find rest for your souls; for I give you only light burdens.” Mathew 11:28 In apprenticeship, it is expected that the apprentice at the end of the training period should at least be like the master in skillfulness or not more than the master. Also the more time an apprentice spent with the master increases the likelihood of the apprentice been skilled in the trade. From afore stated, two persons must be involved to make up an apprenticeship system; the master and an apprentice. The app...

Every product has purpose(s) it serves; the purpose defines the use such product is put to and the use precedes the product. The value of each product is use defined; use determines the usefulness and then demand for the product. At any point in time the usefulness is lost, the value depreciates immediately and volume of demand closes up to nil. Every product represents the producer; it’s a test of the integrity of the manufacturer. Once the value is lost or compromised the product loses worth likewise. To maintain/keep worth, almost always the producer recalls the product for the integrity he must protect/defend. Every producer sells first the name he has made and then the product; the name made is his brand. All brand need usefulness to remain a brand otherwise a loss to the producer. To maintain a brand most producers recalls a product that fails to represent their brand. Every recalled product is a loss to the producer but a better loss than a lost brand; it’s a neces...
