The Word
NARRATIVES OF REASONING
Senior Pastor Daniel O. C. | Oct 17, 2025
Beloved Saint of God Most High,
Calvary greetings to you and yours in the mighty name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, Amen!
May the Lord God Almighty bless you with a wonderful and glorious Christ-centred weekend ahead in Jesus’ mighty name, Amen!
“Let us search out and examine our ways and turn back to the Lord.
Let us lift our hearts and hands to God in heaven” (Lamentations 3:40-41).
Let us test and examine our ways and let us return to the Lord!
Let us lift up our hearts and our hands and then with them mount up in prayer to God in heaven.
NARRATIVES OF REASONING
Those trying to bring you down do not realize that you are part of the reason why they are still standing.
The Man of Nazareth, Jesus, Who turned water into wine will also turn your suffering into joy for His glory.
Remember, “No matter how good you are, people will still judge you through the lens of their own insecurities.”
No matter how much oil you pour on people’s heads and pray, unless they want a change, they will just be a greasy demon!
SUCCESS is a vehicle which moves on wheel named HARDWORK, but the journey is IMPOSSIBLE without the fuel called SELF-CONFIDENCE.
Ability is what you are capable of doing.
Motivation determines what you do.
Attitude determines how well you do it.
Before you use God’s Word as a SWORD, use it first as a MIRROR for self- examination, Amen!
Consider these:
First, it is an intention.
It becomes a behaviour.
Then a habit.
Then a practice.
Then a second nature.
Then it is simply who you are.
Your standards determine your life quality. Low standards attract low outcomes.
When you hold grudges, your hands are not free to catch.
Do not force someone to understand you because if they really care, they will understand.
Leadership is influence multiplied by integrity.
Do not raise your voice but improve your argument because in the end, respect is earned through reason, not volume.
Success is built one step at a time – stay consistent, stay unstoppable in Jesus’ name, Amen!
Your dedication to today’s work is the bridge to tomorrow’s success.
The best feeling of happiness is when you are happy because you have made somebody else happy.
Success is rented daily, and the rent is discipline.
Life is the most difficult exam many people fail because they try to copy others not realizing that everyone has a different question paper.
You cannot reach for anything new if your hands are full of yesterday’s crap.
The strongest people are not those who show strength in front of us but those who win battles we know nothing about through prayers.
Do not ask permission to fly. The wings are yours and the sky belongs to no one.
When life gets tough and everything feels like it is falling apart, remember this: Even a tortoise reaches the finish line as long as it keeps moving forward.
PRESS ON TO THE FINISH LINE IN JESUS’ NAME, AMEN & AMEN!
Remain blessed and rapturable,
Yours to reach this generation with the Gospel,
Dr. Daniel O. C.
