Being merciful means having a forgiving heart. It also means doing what you can to prevent evil from happening to others.
When someone offends you, being merciful means you’re willing to forgive. Even when people don’t deserve your help, mercy compels you to show kindness and support anyway.
Mercy also involves caring for others—thinking about their needs and considering them when making decisions.
Proverbs 24:16-18 New King James Version (NKJV)
For a righteous man may fall seven times And rise again, But the wicked shall fall by calamity.
Life is full of challenges. We will all face challenges regardless of our location, age, or status.
Challenges can arise at any point in our lives, often coming unannounced.
The best thing you can do is to prepare yourself for life’s challenges before they arrive.
The greatest people in life are those who face challenges and overcome them.
If you want to become great in life, you must be willing to face challenges and overcome them. People who avoid challenges or depend on others to help them always have limitations in life.
Psalm 108:12
“Give us help from trouble, for the help of man is useless.”
When I was in high school, I had a fight with one of my classmates. Before the fight, I had planned with a friend to support me because I was sure he could defeat my opponent.
With that confidence, I went ahead with the fight, expecting my friend to step in at the right moment. However, to my surprise, he disappeared and never showed up to assist me.
After the fight—where I was thoroughly beaten—I found my friend and asked why he didn’t come to help. His response shocked me. He said he deliberately didn’t show up because I believed I could fight, and he wanted me to see that I couldn’t.
This post will discuss the influence of media and social media on our society.
“Media” refers to traditional forms like TV, radio, and newspapers. “Social media” encompasses platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube.
These platforms undeniably influence our lives, shaping our society in areas like fashion, relationships, education, finance, and even spirituality—virtually every aspect of how we live.

We are where we are in life today because of the choices we made years ago.
The choices you make today will determine your destination in the coming months or years.
As Christians, we already have a manual on how we should live our lives: the Bible. If you read and obey what the Bible says, the result will be all-around prosperity.
In simple terms, you can say that wisdom is the application of knowledge. It’s not enough to acquire knowledge; you also need to be able to apply it. Anyone who acquires knowledge without using it is a fool.
So, you can see that being wise is a function of the decisions you make. To be considered a wise person, you need to continually learn, practice the things you learn, and you will get positive results.
In this post, I will be sharing some reasons with you why you need to prioritize gaining wisdom.
Wisdom is more important than riches.
Wisdom is more profitable than riches in the long run. Wisdom can generate riches for you easily. Even when you’ve lost all your funds, wisdom can help you regain all that you’ve lost. Riches can fly away due to unforeseen circumstances. A business owner can lose his funds and business due to unfavorable government policies or due to a fire. Wisdom is something you have within you, and no one can take it from you.
In the biblical account, King David decided to conduct a census of Israel and Judah, which was viewed as an act of pride and a lack of trust in God. Joab,
David’s commander, advised against it, but David insisted. After the census, God was displeased with David’s action.
As punishment, God offered David a choice of three consequences: three years of famine, three months of fleeing from enemies, or three days of plague.
David chose the plague, resulting in the death of 70,000 Israelites. Ultimately, David repented, and God commanded him to build an altar to stop the plague, which he did, demonstrating both the gravity of his sin and God’s mercy.
Our post for today was inspired by the story of David in the Bible summarised above.
Here are 3 reasons why we need to pray for our leaders
It is easier for humans to focus on urgent tasks while ignoring important ones. I can tell you that this lifestyle is the foundation of failure in life.
If you want to be successful and remain successful, you need to prioritize the important things that matter because those are what count in the end.
One of the factors that keeps you from focusing on important things is people’s perspectives of you. When you focus on how others see you, your actions will be influenced by their opinions. You may end up doing tasks that are important to them just to gain their approval, rather than focusing on what truly matters to you.
