Never has the path to a fulfilled life been so clear and the simple secret to happiness been so exposed! It is an expository, thought provoking, illuminating, 'unputdownable' book, that will gear you up into discovering who you truly are and offer guidance on how to reach your ultimate goal." - EUNICE EKELAKA (Shortlisted for the Dusty Manuscript Prize.)* REVIEW: "An unforgettable and encouraging book which will penetrate the heart of the reader. A book which will inspire the reader to live a life of closer communion with God and provoke within him or her a greater desire to live according to His will and ways." - REBEKAH ODUTOLA (NGO Manager).* Have you been feeling oppressed by the burdens of this world? * Have you been weighed down by so many problems that you have wished for a divine relief from the bone crushing weight of your sorrows? * In this book, you will learn how to gain your freedom from all the oppression that has plagued you, through the help of Christ. God's assurance can be seen in Hebrews 6:19-20; "This hope is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls. It leads us through the curtain into God's inner sanctuary. Jesus has already gone in there for us. He has become our eternal High Priest in the order of Melchizedek." * You would also learn that to achieve your dreams, you must follow them. And not by consuming your thoughts with ways of getting extremely wealthy, but strategically thinking about doing something you really want to do. * If you believe the night is over, I charge you to be expectant of the morning glory. I come from a famous family but was brought up in abject poverty. From childhood, I knew it wasn't the kind of life I should be living. I believed there must have been an error somewhere. I knew the ladder I was to climb was not going to be an easy feat, but I was determined. I had to work really hard to get to the point where I am now. At some point, in an attempt to fortify my spirit, I embarked on a 40-day fast, and I could go as long as 7 days without food. But all in all, I didn't do it all alone. Like a blanket, cloaking me in its warmth, someone was watching over me. I knew, throughout my moments of suffering, that the ladder of success had to be set upon something solid before you could begin your ascent.* That someone was Jesus. He was and still is, my anchor. That's why you need to make Jesus your anchor; to assure you that you are anchored to something firm even if it is unseen. We are anchored upward, towards heaven and not stuck to the ground; and we are anchored to move on, not to stand still! This hope will see us into the very presence of God. * Hope is the opposite of the discouragement we (Christians) often battle against. We are assured of this access into the presence of God because Jesus has entered as a forerunner. Jesus has entered into the Father's presence so that His people can follow Him there. A forerunner goes forward, knowing that others are going to follow! Jesus chose unlearned, unlettered men, but He taught them. You don't need fancy degrees or a formal education to start out as an inventor or to become successful in life, but you must enrol yourself in the study of thought. You must keep your mind busy by reading God's word and establishing a relationship with Him. Five people in the bible; Moses (Exodus 3:1-15), David (1 Samuel 17:20-51), Gideon (Judges 7:4-7), Matthew (Matthew 9:9), and Paul (Acts 9:1-9, were called while already at work. * God's call usually comes while we are busy. HEAVEN HELPS THOSE WHO ARE READY. Furthermore, there is a blunder, usually overlooked, that can cause you to miss your appointed time. This error can be found in Ecclesiastes 10:5-7.
