It is the people who cannot stand oppression that qualifies to fight today’s modern slavery.
~ Sunday Adelaja
At the root of every form of ungodliness, injustice, nepotism, selfishness, every rivalry and competitive jealousy, is the monster called greed.
Greed is an excessive desire for something more than one’s proper share.
As a result of this greed for power, the poor is not only silenced but also oppressed.
If people in the position of power are not made to be accountable, then, ungodliness, injustice and oppression will continue to be the order of the day in the society.
Until there is equal and fair portion of opportunities apportioned for every citizen, the power structure may need to be restructured.
To be compassionate, you have to forget your own comfort zone and live well because you live beyond yourself.
What bothers you today or gives you concerns could be a signpost to your purpose in life.
Just as you are what you think, you are also what you dream.
To be under a physical bondage or a mental bondage is one of the worst situations someone could ever be in life.
When someone finds his or her mind is not free or in mental bondage, such a person might as well not be free physically.
If a person is not free, his right is restricted.
Your right in a civilized society is to have freedom.
If we could be humble enough to submit our passions, sentiments and even weaknesses to God Almighty, he would successfully convert them to something positive that would eventually glorify Him.
When it comes to change; feelings like frustrations, anger and irritations can easily be converted by each person to become a powerful force of change.
You must not allow the hurt of the past to haunt or hinder you from fulfilling and performing your duties as one who has a passion to impact his society and make a change.
The philosophy of a person speaks of what dictates or governs how and what someone believes.
Whatever your passion, make sure you hold unto a philosophy that is bigger and greater than you.
Stay with your passion but have a philosophy that is beyond your strength so that you can have a legacy, even a legacy that will outlast you.
When you dream of what you want to see, whether in your life, home, community or nation, you need to keep watching those dreams until they come to fulfillment.
While in bondage, the strength of the mind is not put into full action in order to maximize its full potential.
God loves justice and He desires mankind to love the same.
There is no one that cannot make an impact in this world.
Just an emotional response of sentiments will only lead to tiredness and weariness.
Those who fight for social justice and the rights of people will count any other thing as unimportant.
You can be a person with a strong passion or holy anger and be furious in a way that will make the society safer, godly, with social justice and equity.
To be able to impact the society and to be an agent of change, you have to make yourself available to serve.
To be honorable, you have to make sacrifices for others.
The lawmakers possess the authority that commands the obedience of the people.
You have received a mandate not given by man, but given and empowered by God, to bring justice to the people and godliness on the earth.
If you see your country going through economic problems, the best thing to do is to come up with a strategy, plan and vision of how to affect the economy of the nation, rather than simply fixing your own individual economic problem.
If you are frustrated with the elite of your society, do something about it.
When everybody contributes a change to what he or she notices, it is then we will change our world.
There is satisfaction in serving.
Anyone that will make a difference would have to put others ahead of them put others first.
When insulted by injustice, face it, stand up against it and demand your right and justice.
Those who have been insulted by ungodliness and injustice could be in a good or better position to stand for or with those that are being insulted by the same.
There is an innate and strong desire in every human being to be heard.
Make sure you speak out and loud enough to be heard.
A sincere decision to make is to refuse to give up until the society experiences the defeat of every form of injustice and ungodliness.
