O
 God! Please, recover many of your Children from absolute Misdirection and Disobeying the VOICE of the Holy Spirit. O Holy Father, Thou art Good and Doeth Good! Hallelujah!
   “…O LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself: IT IS NOT IN MAN THAT WALKETH TO DIRECT HIS STEPS…” (Jer 10:23) “…Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: BUT WE WILL REMEMBER THE NAME OF THE LORD OUR GOD…” Psalm 20:7
There are many ways a believer can be exceedingly frustrated but the two major ways that really frustrate folks are: Refusing to be led by the Spirit of God and not walking by faith. Now, I want to major on Faith that profits you. Beloved, faith MUST be towards God before it can be productive. You see, when you direct your faith towards things and men, you are bound to be frustrated. Faith must be towards God. There are folks who believe in their Parents, Cousins and U.S based Uncles for financial help in times of need. They do go for church meetings but their faith is towards men. God said to my most revered Mentor, Bishop David Olaniyi Oyedepo, some years ago. Hear what the LORD told him! “…My son, you have two eyes; can you make one to look up and one to look down? And my Mentor tried it but he failed, then God said to him ‘Anytime you are looking unto men, never claim to be looking unto Me for My Word says; “…THEY LOOKED UNTO HIM (ME), AND WERE LIGHTENED: AND THEIR FACES WERE NOT ASHAMED…” (Psalm 34:5) That was how my Mentor was recovered from looking unto men to looking unto God for all-round Supplies
The reasons many good Christian people enter into some avoidable problems was because there was no absolute faith towards God. I am fond of saying to Campus Pastors and leaders that the faith they claim to have is “GUIDED FAITH.” What I mean by that is simple. They direct faith to Mum and Dad for their needs whatever it may be; they don’t direct their faith to God. Beloved! There is glory in faith towards God and there is shame, frustration and lack in faith towards men! If you are a Word-addict, your faith will shoot high like a babul tree in North Africa and South Asia. This tree always withstands the test of TIME! Sometimes, when you see a believer who says I am believing God for so and so but deeply and really, he is believing men for that so and so. FAITH TOWARDS GOD WORKS!
  “...Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, AND OF FAITH TOWARD GOD…” (Hebrew 6:1) Brethren, as you may have observed our educational system in Nigeria, many of the things we learn in the university are grossly irrelevant to our future. True knowledge and learning birth ACTION! After 4 or 5 years of inglorious waste of time in the Nigeria University, you now have to sit down to really learn “HOW LIFE WORKS” and your desires for greatness in the future. You MUST need to unlearn what you have learnt in the university and really sit down to learn from God – the Maker of ALL. After 3 years of laborious search for a job and there seems to be none; many resort to come back for a Master degree so as to give “degrees to their lives.” I have said often and often that having a Master degree (M.s.c) in a noble university does not make you a Master of/in life. Brethren, the true meaning of M.s.c is not Master of science but Master of situations and circumstances. That’s all you will ever need and only the LORD JESUS is a Master of situations and circumstances. So, GO TO JESUS FOR REAL HELP AND HE WILL HELP YOU!
 “…TRUST IN THE LORD WITH ALL THINE HEART; and lean not unto thine own understanding. IN ALL THY WAYS ACKNOWLEDGE HIM, and he shall direct thy paths…” (Prov 3:5-6). Men and brethren, you will forever need to direct your faith towards God and not towards your Business or Foreign UNESCO aid. A true believer is an icon of faith towards God and not to Things. There are needs in life whether you are Doctor or a Preacher, just don’t direct your faith towards men but ONLY believe in God to help you when the challenges of life come to you. I pray for you that YOUR FAITH WILL NOT FAIL!
