Women's Prayer Banquet Become A Better You (B.A.BY) with Pastor Dotun

My notes from Women's Prayer Banquet "Become a Better You" September, 2021.
There were so many wisdom nuggets being released at this online event. I just got to write down a few. Men out there will find this information useful as well. 

Kids need hands on play-time: puzzles, lego, creativity from drawing e.t.c. This allows them to build creativity. On the other hand, always watching TV will create hyperactivity. (My kid's pediatrician actually taught us this at a yearly checkup, so this is standard medical information as well).
This is the reason why a lot of adults cannot meditate, our minds are not calm enough.

Excuses are made whether they are valid or not.The 1st person you have responsibility to is yourself.
Age, marriage and children are not excuses to give up on yourself.
No one is better than you, they just know something that you don't know.

Prayer is not a substitute for building skills and building up yourself to establish wealth. Some people are prayer warriors but do not build any skills.
People who take off suddenly in life at some point discovered the key to success is personal growth and dedicated themselves to life-long learning.

Life doesn't begin until you are intentional. You have to have long-term and short term goals.

You can't be pitiful and powerful at the same time.

The starting point for achieving mastery is for you to commit to excellence.
If you are not getting better, you are getting worse.
Get up and spend the first hour investing in yourself.
Reading is key to exponential growth.
If you read in your field one hour a day, that will translate into about one book per week. 
Reading one hour a day for 3 years will make you a national authority.
Reading one hour a day for 7 yrs will make you an international authority
Rewrite your goals daily
- plan day in advance
-focus & concentrate on goals 
-invest your time in learning 
-read books 
-time invested in personal growth produces tremendous results
Treat everyone like a million dollar person especially subordinates, don't talk down on people because they are underneath you. Connecting with people won't be hard when you treat them well. #inspiration#personalgrowth#faith#womanhood

Divided Loyalty

James 1:5-6 in the NLT version. Most versions write about doubt in verse 6 but here it calls doubt having "divided loyalty". The presence of that divided loyalty causes inward instability. It's like constantly switching between one of two options without picking one. The book of James has a very practical matter-of-fact approach and it encourages us to just make a choice. In this particular verse, it encourages us to pick faith over doubt.  " But when you ask him, be sure that your faith is in God alone. Do not waver, for a person with divided loyalty is as unsettled as a wave of the sea that is blown and tossed by the wind." James 1:6 NLT https://bible.com/bible/116/jas.1.6.NLT #faith#doubt#waivering#faithblogger#bibleverse#christianinspiration

Does God feel our pain?

Do you believe that God understands how you feel? Do you believe He feels your pain? This verse is a reminder that He does. It's part of the story of Jesus visiting Mary and Martha after their brother passed away. He told them that God would get the glory and that their brother would rise again. They didn't understand that He meant that he would rise again based on his command. Jesus didn't go ahead with the miracle to prove himself to them, instead he stayed with the sisters and their mourners. His soul was troubled. Jesus wasn't more interested in proving that He was the son of God who could work miracles than he was in connecting with Mary in her pain. It's the same way with us. Sometimes we just don't understand what God is saying but He still feels what we are feeling and weeps with us.
