TIME REMAINS CONSTANT

Some days ago, I was coming home from an event. It was late in the night, and some construction works were been done. We were detoured to another route.


I took a turn at the first sign and when I saw another detour sign, I became impatient. I thought I knew the road so well so I decided to not follow the detour signs anymore.


I took my own route and to my utter surprise, that road was also blocked. By the time I followed this new detour sign, it took me back to where I was coming from. I nearly cried!


I was so frustrated and pained but I learned a big lesson.


WHY AM I SHARING THIS WITH YOU?


The road to success is always under construction. As a result, there will be many detour signs.

Don't try to be too clever. Don't think you are too smart. Follow the lead of your maker, your God.

It may look like it's taking very long for you to get there, trust Him!


Stay on course! If you get off the path He has earmarked for you, you will lose your way, you will struggle, and eventually, run on empty.


🎯 Follow God's detour signs for your life.

🎯 Don't try to be too clever to follow your own path.

🎯 He wants to order your steps.

🎯 He wants to guide you.

🎯 He wants to show you which way to go.

It may look like it's taking too long but trust His timing because He makes all things beautiful in its (appointed) time.




I believe in you.

Not long ago, my wife and I went to a restaurant for brunch. We ordered something simple; pancakes and French toast. Within minutes, our plates arrived. But there was a couple seated nearby who had ordered a grand wooden platter filled with all sorts of delicacies. They waited much longer. When their food finally came, everyone in the restaurant turned and whispered “Wow!” They had this sizzling whole fish platter that I had never seen before in my life. That day, I learnt a truth: nothing “Wow” comes quick. Beloved, maybe you’re in a season where it looks like others are being served before you. Their careers are moving faster, their prayers seem answered sooner, their dreams unfolding while you’re still waiting. But remember this: waiting is not wasting. God is not late; He is preparing something bigger, something weightier, something that will make others say, “Wow, only God could have done this.” Hebrews 10:37 says, “He who is coming will come and will not delay.” Delay doesn’t mean denial. Waiting is God’s way of maturing you for what He is bringing or maturing what He is bringing for you. So hold on. Your platter is being prepared. And when it arrives, it will have been worth the wait. I believe in you. Dr Samuel Ekundayo | The Purpose Preacher

Picture an eagle in a cage. No matter how beautiful the cage is, the eagle was not designed to live in a cage. It was designed to soar on the highest heights and mountains with courage and flair. No matter the lure of the cage, it can never surpass the freedom of the eagle soaring in all expanse of the skies in all of its glories and strength. Like the eagle trapped, too many brilliant, gifted, called individuals are trapped in the cage of careers they were not designed for. They can never command their true worth and value, they can only eat the crumbs they are being fed by their captors. The lure of salaries and pennies that will never satisfy keeps them in such cages. They would rather remain in the rat race than take the risks for their freedom and glory. The Bible says, "If the Son (Jesus) sets you free, you will be free indeed." - John 8:36 As a child of God, you can break free! You were not designed to be caged! Any job that does not give you the freedom to express your gifts, talents and calling is a cage. One of the biggest graveyards of purpose I see is this graveyard of unfulfilling careers. People get jobs only for the sake of earning, rather than fulfilling their life's calling and pursuing what matters to them. But here's the truth: The careers you were not designed for will not satisfy you. They will leave you with voids and emptiness. At the end of your career, you would lack true legacy, influence and impact. Your time to break free is now. I believe in you. Dr Samuel Ekundayo
