People Who Avoid Failure Inevitably Avoid Success

People Who Avoid Failure Inevitably Avoid Success History tells us that while attempting to invent the incandescence light bulb, Thomas Edison, the world famous American Inventor, failed 10,000 times. After 5,000 failed experiments, his laboratory attendant said to him; “Mr. Edison, we have failed 5,000 times, shouldn’t we stop?” Mr. Edison replied; “Son, we have not failed 5,000 times, we have only discovered 5,000 ways in which it cannot work. We are closer to the solution now than when we started.” Success is the achievement of predetermined goals. But how do you respond when things do not go the way you planned? Do you feel discouraged and depressed? Does it make you want to quit? Everybody wants to succeed, no one wants to fail. However, our knowledge of success cannot be complete without knowing how to handle failure. Successful people see failure as a stepping stone, not a stumbling block. They have the right attitude that failure will neither be fatal nor final. They refer to their failure as “learning experiences” or “temporary setbacks”. On the other hand, unsuccessful people are usually those who are so afraid of failure and rejection that they spend their lives avoiding the risks that could result in failure. They do not realize that those who avoid failure inevitably avoid success. Don’t be afraid to fail. Success will not come without you taking a risk. Don’t let what you have done label you negatively. That you failed an interview, an examination or a sales pitch does not make you a failure. Who you are is different from what you have done. Don’t say to yourself; “I am a failure” just because things did not work out right. If you do that, you have internalized your failure. If you allow failure to get into your heart, it will follow you everywhere. A key thing to note is that failure is usually a sign that you need to change something. If things are not working, something is out of place. Be willing to make adjustments prayerfully. Just a small change can result in an outstanding breakthrough. Always remember that failure is not peculiar to you. Most successful people can write volumes on how not to succeed. They have tried many things that did not work. However, the world has not recognized them for the many ventures in which they failed. No. They have been recognized for the few areas in which they have achieved outstanding success. Dear friend, as you travel on the road to success, you will have challenges. If you get knocked down, are you going to give up and stay down, wallowing in your defeat? Or are you going to get back on your feet as quickly as you can? You can use failure as a springboard to success. You will succeed. -Sam Adeyemi

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES

_Rhapsody of Realities_ *Don’t Keep It To Yourself* Thursday, July 28th . _Pastor Chris Oyakhilome PhD_ *And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever (Daniel 12:3)* Our opening scripture addresses those who win souls to Christ; they’re destined to shine as the brightness of the firmament and stars for ever and ever. This lets you know how important you are to the Lord, if you’re a soul winner. Soul winning is God’s number one job, and as His children, we’re to take the message of salvation to the nations of the world; it’s our mandate: “And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature” (Mark 16:15). The Gospel is man’s only hope; it’s God’s power to bring men out of sin into righteousness, and out of darkness into His marvellous light. Only through the Gospel can men receive eternal life and become partakers of the divine nature. Through the Gospel, life and immortality have been brought to light (2 Timothy 1:10). Therefore, to know the Gospel; to be saved and then keep it to yourself means you’re not fulfilling the will of God. You must tell others about Christ and the power of His Gospel to save them and make them partakers of His righteousness. Be passionate about soul winning; do it as though you’re the only person to whom the responsibility has been charged. Put your utmost into it. In Ezekiel 3:17-18 the Lord said, “Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me….” God has made you a “watchman” over the sinners—the unconverted in your world. Therefore, let the passion for soul winning be in your heart as a burning fire, shut up in your bones, so much so that you’re unable to keep it to yourself (Jeremiah 20:9). _PRAYER_ _Dear heavenly Father, I thank you for making me a true and dependable minister of the Gospel, an ambassador of Christ. I’m effective today in turning many to righteousness, and from darkness to light, through the power of the Holy Spirit that’s at work in me mightily. I shine as a star forever, because I’m a soul winner, in Jesus’ Name. Amen_ Further Study: || John 20:21 Then said Jesus to them again, Peace [be] unto you: as [my] Father hath sent me, even so send I you. || || Mark 5:18-20 And when he was come into the ship, he that had been possessed with the devil prayed him that he might be with him. 19 Howbeit Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee. 20 And he departed, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him: and all [men] did marvel. || || 2 Corinthians 4:3-5 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: 4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. 5 For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake. || Daily Scripture Reading 1-Year Bible Reading Plan: Romans 3:1-31, Psalms 42-44 2-Year Bible Reading Plan: Ephesians 4:1-10, Isaiah 48 _Do Have A Great Day Ahead...God bless you!_

Untold secret about ICT

*BE SECURED*.. What is the difference between http and https? Don't know how many of you are aware of this difference, but it is worth sending to any that do not... The main difference between *http:// and https:// is It's all about keeping you secure* HTTP stands for Hyper Text Transfer Protocol, the *s*(big surprise) stands for *"secure"..* If you visit a website or web page, and look at the address in the web browser, it will likely begin with the following: http://........; This means that the website is talking to your browser using the regular 'unsecured' language. In other words, it is possible for someone to "eavesdrop" on your computer's conversation with the website. If you fill out a form on the website, someone might see the information you send to that site. This is why you should never ever ever enter your credit card number in an http website! But if the web address begins with https://....... that basically means your computer is talking to the website in a secure code that no one can eavesdrop on. So, if a website ever asks you to enter your credit card information, you should automatically look to see if the web address begins with https://........., If it doesn't. You should *NEVER* enter sensitive information such as a *credit card number*

What you know gives you an edge

In 2003, Mike Tyson, a former world heavyweight boxing champion was broke and filed for bankruptcy. This was in spite of the fact that he became a world champion at the age of 20 and earned a whopping $470 million! How did he become broke after earning such an amount of money? A close look will reveal that Tyson’s undoing was his mind-set. Psychologists call it cognitive restructuring. He grew up in the slums of Brooklyn, New York. The slum has its own culture; prevailing way of thinking. Unfortunately, when he began to earn millions of dollars, his old way of thinking remained with him. He did not invest in stocks or in real estate. He did not know how to start and run businesses. His mind, instead of being an asset, became a liability. Tyson’s story holds a big lesson for you and me. We cannot rise beyond the level of our thoughts. Given the fact that poverty and wrong thinking have become part of our culture, we must find a way to escape its mental trap. One of the ways is getting the right information. Information is key. It polishes a man's gifting. Mike Tyson was talented but lacks the knowledge to Permanently position himself in the place of the wealthy. What you know gives you an edge. Seek the right knowledge today. You will succeed.

WHAT IF IT WORKS???

*WHAT IF IT WORKS?* ```The queue to the ATM machine was something else because we all wanted to withdraw money. Although there was another machine beside it, nobody moved towards the second machine. We had about 25 people on one single queue. When my sis & I got there, I also went to queue but she asked one of the customers what was wrong with the other machine. 'I don't know', he said, '... but somebody said there is no money in it'. After listening to that 'somebody' tale, my sis told me to move straight to the machine everyone neglected and inserted my card. Lo and behold, the same machine 'somebody' said would not work, dispensed the sum of N25,000. As we were walking away like a magician, others who saw some cash I had withdrawn broke away from the initial queue and rushed to that machine. Why did I tell you this experience? 1. People don't get something they need from somewhere because they refused to try. 2. People refused to try because 'somebody' somewhere said it won't work. 3 The somebody somewhere may be an old authority who doesn't believe in evolution. 4. People won't take steps to do what others don't do because of the 'what if it doesn't work?' question. 5. People ask this question because they don't want to take risks. 6. Those who don't take the risk of checking if the other machine is working will remain on the long queue and may not even get what they need eventually. Meaning achieving in 2hrs what they could have achieved in 2min. 7. When a pacesetter comes and succeeds after 'chesting' the criticisms, others break ranks and follow him. Therefore, stop believing 'the somebody' that asks 'what if it doesn't work?' Ask another question: 'What if it works?' Never allow anybody to discourage you!`` #Copied

How To Stand Out From The Crowd- Excellence

How To Stand Out From The Crowd- Excellence! Excellence is the possession of good quality in an unusual degree. As God’s ambassadors, we must represent him accurately. Excellence is doing things right. But before we consider how to do it right, lets ensure we are doing the right thing. Excellence in the wrong thing still spells failure. DEFINE YOUR ASSIGNMENT You cannot just be efficient for efficiency’s sake. We must also be effective. Efficiency is doing things right. Effectiveness is doing the right things. Defining your assignment is the starting point for you to achieve excellence. State clearly your vision in life or the vision of your organization. This defines the limit of the areas in which to achieve excellence as a person or organization. DEAL WITH OLD MINDSETS Some people say that you have to choose between quality and quantity. This is not true because the more quality you have, the more quantity you attract. The more you do things better, the more you will be patronized. There is another myth that says you must have large amounts of money before you can achieve excellence. The truth is, you need excellence to attract a large amount of money. If you will improve on the quality of what you are doing, your customers will increase; this translates into more money for you. Do not ask, “What will this cost us?” Rather ask, “What will it cost us if we do not do it?”” WHY EXCELLENCE IS A MUST Things are changing around us every day. A person or organization that is outdated cannot be relevant to a contemporary world. If you are still making use of your old manual typewriter when you are supposed to be doing your work with great speed on a computer, it may mire a lot of things. We must endeavor to up-date ourselves with new technologies. Excellence motivates, especially in an underdeveloped environment like ours. We should inspire the people around us by our actions. Our organizations should be places of inspiration. What is that unique thing you have or your organization has that can inspire other people? Striving for excellence shows people that we are serious about our assignment i.e. what we are doing and encourages them to want to be part of it. No matter how small a thing looks, if you have invested quality thoughts in it, people tend to appreciate and identify with it. Great works are a result of deep thoughts. Like begets like. Excellence attracts good quality; human, financial and material resources. For example if you work in a bank and that bank is known for excellent customer service, i.e. within five minutes a customer has been attended to; people tend to flock to such banks. The same goes for supermarkets, salons, and various companies. Life is progressive and not stagnant. We have to jog to maintain our position. If we remain stagnant, we risk failure. There is no pride in failure. We must appreciate excellence wherever it is found. Excellence attracts. We must strive for it. This is one of the keys to success in life. If you run an organization, then make it an excellence-oriented organization. Look for ways to continually improve quality in services offered, events and your facilities. AREAS OF IMPROVEMENTS Communication – i.e. your advert materials must portray excellence. Customer service – when a service is good, one person tells a maximum of 5 people. But when the services are bad, one person tells 20 people. Now only 4% come back to complain but the remaining 96% speak with their feet. Creativity- your staff must keep churning in ideas about how to do things in a better way. Staff trainings – staffs should be exposed to world class improvement programmes for better performance. It is vital to keep learning. Facilities- The organization’s facilities reveal what we value and reflect our self-image. Therefore, the excellence-oriented organization must thrive for excellence in the following areas: The painting of the facilities and landscaping of the environment. Keep the plants and grasses well trimmed and all directional signs freshly painted. The environment should be well lit, has comfortable seating arrangements and the temperature should be well managed with a cooling system. The rest rooms should be clean. Visitors may forget what you say but not the memory of a foul-smelling restroom. The appearance of staffs says a lot about your organization’s priority for excellence. The excellence-oriented organization invests money in what people can see. Human beings are generally motivated and affected by what they see. Excellence is more of a process than a product; a journey, not a destination. We should not make excellence a one- time goal. The key is never to stop learning. When you stop learning, you stop growing. Upgrade from time to time. You will Succeed! Sam Adeyemi.

POWERFUL!!!!!

A Lovely thought...."Death is not the greatest loss in life.....the greatest loss is -what dies in you when you are alive.....

Powerful!!!!!

If you could look inside yourself at your spirit right now, you’d be absolutely stunned because what you’d see is all the attributes of God. You’d see love, joy, peace, patience, resurrection power and glory. -Kenneth Copeland

Imagine God's thoughts is wired in your spirit!!

Imagine God's thoughts is wired in your spirit!! What God thinks becomes mans idea. It synchronizes with your thought pattern. God's thought is His Word. It empowers us to function like God on earth. I used to believe that vision is the mental picture for the future, but it's wrong, cos vision is spiritual and spirituality is not a mental matter. Jesus said to His disciples, many things do I have to tell you but your minds cannot contain them. Jn16:12........very deep.....Ambition requires a mental exercise to actualize it, vision needs your knower ability by His Spirit to become what you have picture in the scripture. God gives this understanding to the simple. Ps119:130. In other words, no matter how a genius you are, you can't comprehend purpose with your mind, cos its bigger than what your head can absorb. God's intention is mans vision in this life. God reveals His secret to men who rely in His ability to function in this life. You can't know or encounter God and still be yourself. You need God mentality and not your mental ability to fulfil purpose. Philip2:5. Tt bit: You dont need head knowledge to realize your purpose, you need Word knowledge to have an edge in life. #GraceLife

God has no problem with the poor state of a man, He is concerned with man's inability to use his mind rightly.

Billionaires Mindset!!! If wealth is determined by how active a man can be, then labourers would have been the wealthiest set of individuals in this life. "Been too busy doesn't make a business mogul". The fact is smart people employ hard-working people for their service. The rich value the power of the mind, the poor value strength. That's the reason they struggle. The poor value money, the rich value ideas. The rich value time than opportunities, the poor seek opportunities so they miss and waste time. The fact is, no matter how poor a man is, he still has money, his problem is not having money but how to make money. In conclusion, God has no problem with the poor state of a man, He is concerned with man's inability to use his mind rightly. #GraceLife

Round-The-Clock Protection Psalm 91:5–6 5You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day, 6nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness,nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday. During World War II, German planes bombed London. Houses were leveled. But there was one that remained standing amidst the rubble. Its owner said that when she read Psalm 121:4, which says, “Behold, He who keeps Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep,” she told the Lord, “Lord, since You don’t sleep, then there is no point in both of us keeping awake. I will sleep while You keep watch.” And she did, while the Lord protected her and her house. In 2005, terrorists attacked London’s public transport system. That day, a Singaporean girl found herself unexpectedly late for work and could not get to the train station in time to board her usual train. When she finally neared the station, she realized that it had been bombed just a few minutes earlier. Her mother, who worships in our church, believes that God protected her daughter that day. God wants you to know that you have round-the-clock protection — “You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day, nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.” He protects you from “the terror by night”, which could refer to evils such as rape, kidnap or murder. He promises you protection from “the arrow that flies by day”. This could refer to bullets from a crazy sniper, drive-by shootings or home-made rockets fired into your territory. God also shields you from “the pestilence that walks in darkness”, referring to viruses which you cannot see. You don’t have to be afraid of deadly viruses lurking somewhere or wonder if some deadly disease is developing in your body. God also doesn’t want you to be afraid of “the destruction that lays waste at noonday”, such as a tsunami hitting the beach resort you are at, or a bomb going off in the shopping mall you are in. You need not be afraid because God, who neither slumbers nor sleeps, is watching over you 24 hours a day!

Good Morning...Am Sure You Night Was Nice...THANKS TO GOD... #Friend The dictionary meaning of a Friend, is a person who deserve trust. Hmm..my definition while i was a lad remains evergreen, it states paradoxically; 'A friend is a person who walks in when others are out (not while others are moving out. Many challenged it though, my literature teacher included. But looks Realistic). Friendship is all about our relationships in Life, not wonder friendship often end in Love, while Love is Life. The worst mistake a man could make is the selection of friends whom could mar Or make Your Life (when You are sentimental in selecting's,You are definitely taking 'omo wobe' was a friend), but we often focus more on our enemies which is ourselves,**"We never learn to give the true friends a chance for friendship (No one is to be blame for Your downfall, because You choose to fall by wrong decisions). People speak of self Love, but don't know the self* is the enemies, they can't see their flaws which is dangerous to their immunity. The only pass for choosing a friend is with a symbiotic senses. Since no one knows anyone then it's best being critical. Your Life Is A Matter Of Whom You Make Your Friend (GOD) or evil).

Rhapsody Of Realities

*Rhapsody Of Realities TeeVo* Sunday, July 10th 2016. Pastor Chris Oyakhilome PhD. *TALK WISELY* _(Control Your Speech)_ TO THE BIBLE Proverbs 18:20 “A man’s stomach shall be satisfied from the fruit of his mouth, from the produce of his lips he shall be filled.” *LET’S TALK* Some Christians wonder why things in their lives don’t seem to align with the wonderful blessings and provisions the Gospel provides, even though they’ve been born again for many years. They’re always broke and sick, and constantly complaining. The reason for their plight isn’t far-fetched—they haven’t learnt to control their lives with their tongue. You can be anything you want to be, have anything you want to have, and achieve anything you want to achieve if you’d only control the way you talk. Let your speech be regulated by God’s Word. If it’s not the Word, then don’t say it! What you say consistently rules your life, so choose today to speak the right words only—words that are consistent with God’s Word. Believe it or not, who and what you are today is a result of what you said yesterday. What you say is what you get! So don’t say, “Well, I was only joking; I didn’t quite mean it!” Good or bad, you’ll have what you say—whether or not you meant it. That’s why I tell people, “Say what you mean, and mean what you say”; never joke against the Word. Psalm 12:4 says, “With our tongue we will prevail; our lips are our own...,” letting you know that you’re to regulate your life with your tongue. *Go Deeper* Joshua 1:8; Matthew 12:36-37 AMP *Pray* Dear Father, thank you for opening the eyes of my understanding, and helping me realise that I can control and determine the circumstances of my life by my words. I declare that I’m on the path of success, victory, and everlasting prosperity, because I choose to speak only those words that are consistent with the provisions of the Gospel, in Jesus’ Name. Amen. *Daily Bible Reading* ONE YEAR Acts 20:17-38, Job 22-24 TWO YEAR Luke 8:1-10, Joshua 6 *Act* Meditate on Proverbs 18:21: “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and they who indulge in it shall eat the fruit of it [for death or life]” (AMP). _*Write Your Notes*_

Destined To Reign

There Is Just Something Special About You Isaiah 60:1 1Arise, shine; for your light has come! And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you. People might have said to you, “Why are you so lucky?” or “You seem to be looking younger and younger,” or “There is so much bad news these days, yet you seem untroubled by them.” Now, the people of the world don’t have spiritual discernment. They can only go by your physical appearance, behavior and what happens to you. In other words, if they notice something different about you, it is because they see the evidence of God’s glory on your life — in your family and work life, health and finances. Your friends and colleagues may have told you that you stand out from the rest as though a spotlight were on you. Indeed, this is so because of Christ in you, the hope of glory. (Colossians 1:27) When God’s glory rises upon you, your words carry weight, even if you are not eloquent. I should know. I stuttered and stammered right up into my teens. So when your words change people’s lives, you know that it is not you. It is the Lord! You don’t have to be a straight-A student or someone able to speak the Queen’s English. You may be foul-mouthed like the disciple Peter, but when God changes you and His glory rises upon you, and you stand up and preach, 3,000 people get saved! (Acts 2:14–41) What is important is that God gives weight to what you say. You might be a nobody like Joseph, a slave cast aside and forgotten in a dungeon. Yet, the greatest king on earth at that time sought Joseph out to have him interpret his dreams. In other words, God will give to you answers that the people of the world do not have. Maybe it is your hands. When you lay hands on the sick, they recover. Maybe it is your ability to give counsel that is spot on, or your ability to speak into their future with a word of knowledge or word of wisdom from God. “The Gentiles shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising.” (Isaiah 60:3) My friend, when you see this happening, it is because the people of the world are drawn to the glory of the Lord which has risen upon you!

*Rhapsody of Realities* *Be Courageous With The Truth* Saturday, July 9th . Pastor Chris Oyakhilome PhD *Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands. For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:6-7)* There’re many in the world who are yet to hear the Gospel of Christ. In some places, Christians are attacked and killed, with many forbidden to profess Jesus openly. But none of these is new. The apostles faced similar persecutions, but they remained courageous until the end. We must therefore be courageous with the truth in the days in which we live. Courage is the ability and the will to do what’s right or necessary even in the face of threats or adversity. It’s the will and ability to stand for what’s right in spite of opposition. Therefore, be courageous in affirming your faith in Christ, no matter who your adversaries are. Be courageous in giving life, strength, and light to others. Courage is what got the Church of Jesus Christ to where it is today. The apostles and prophets of old weren’t afraid of kings, nobles and wicked dictators who opposed the Gospel; they sure weren’t afraid to die. Fear is the biggest killer in the world. Many people die, not out of persecution, but out of fear. Refuse to fear! There’re only two that have a responsibility for your life, whether you live or die: God and you. If God doesn’t sanction it, no one can kill you. If you say no, then it can’t happen, but if you let fear in, then you become a victim. Therefore, be strengthened with the strength of God; refuse to fear any man, systems or governments.

Not Every human is conscious of his action, majority are unconsciously unstable (Some just think situational (which could be illusive at times) Ratner than acting Derivational). An average human hardly Trust Himself and without Self Trust In GOD, One could hardly get something away from Life. People had always wished for the transparency of the Mind* But, human will still make You know what they are up to deceptively (They Will be dabbing and will make You Feel like it's shoki). Anyway, to My bit of sensesic** perspective, the Lamarck evolutionary Law of 'Use And Disuse', was more of Cognitively affective (see CBT) than visibility of it's application (Bet that Law was greater than flesh, More Spiritual. Chuckles). Portraying the consecutive advantageous sense of constancy in life idiosyncrasy, which otherwise might lead to banishing of thought and senses. The is no alternative to Success in Life, it all depends on GOD...#ThinkConstant #ThinkOrdinaryLeavingTheExtraToGOD...GRACEFULLY...HAVE BLESSED DAY AND DAYS WISHES...BY GOD'S GRACE

Your Words Carry Power! Ecclesiastes 8:4 Where the word of a king is, there is power... In Bible times, a king’s word carried tremendous power. What he decreed would come to pass. It would be done. For example, if he said, “Raise the taxes,” the taxes would be raised. Do you know that we are kings? The Bible tells us that Jesus has washed us from our sins with His blood and made us kings. (Revelation 1:5–6) And as kings in Christ, our words carry power too. When we place our hands on a sick person and say, “Be healed,” the person is healed. When we lay hands on our children and say, “Be blessed,” our children are blessed. There is power in our words because they are the words of kings! When I was a young Christian in my teens, I wanted to practice what I had learnt about the power of my words. There was this particular plant near my home and whenever I passed by it, I would say to it, “Be cursed in Jesus’ name!” Many days passed. And I will never forget the day when I noticed that the leaves of the plant had turned brown! You may want to try this at home with your potted plants, but bless them instead! Since our words carry power, can you imagine the harm we do when we say to our loved ones things like, “You are always so careless”, “You are good for nothing” or “You are so stupid”? We are cursing them! The devil is happy when you use the power of your words against yourself and your loved ones. He wants to see you defeated. So instead of saying, “I am always short of money,” say, “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.” (Psalm 23:1) Instead of saying, “I am so useless. I can’t do anything,” start saying, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” (Philippians 4:13) Beloved, remember that as a king, what you say will come to pass because where the word of a king is, there is power. So learn to say what God says about you in His Word and see His promises come to pass in your life! Source: Josephprince.org

Dallas Shootings

Police have identified Micah Xavier Johnson, 25, as the suspect who was killed by police after he was involved in the fatal shooting of five officers during a protest against police brutality in Texas. Johnson, a former soldier in the US army from the nearby city of Mesquite, served a tour in Afghanistan, the army said on Friday. They said Johnson had no criminal record and no ties to "terror" groups. Police have also said he was "not affiliated" with any groups and claimed to be acting on his own accord. US police officers killed 'by snipers' at Dallas protest The incident took place on Thursday night during a peaceful Black Lives Matter protest against police killings of black Americans across the country. The officers were shot by snipers from elevated positions, the Dallas Police Department said. Another seven officers and two civilians were wounded, according to the Dallas Morning News. Dallas, the third largest city in the US state of Texas, is home to an estimated 1.3 million people. "The suspect said he was upset about Black Lives Matter," Brown told reporters. "He said he was upset about the recent police shootings; the suspect said he was upset at white people. "The suspect said he wanted to kill white people, especially white officers," he continued. "The suspect stated that we will eventually find the IEDs. The suspect stated he was not affiliated with any groups and he stated that he did this alone." The suspect exchanged fire with police officers and was then killed by police when they detonated an IED carried by a robot in the parking garage of the El Centro College in downtown Dallas. Brown said negotiations broke down and police "saw no other option but to use our bomb robot". He added that three other suspects are presently in police custody. Dallas Mayor Michael Rawlings urged people to join a prayer vigil for the officers who were killed at noon local time. Heidi Zhou-Castro said it was "the worst attack on law enforcement officers in the United States" since the September 11 attacks in 2001. "It is a different Dallas altogether this morning as people awoke to this tragic news," she told Al Jazeera from Dallas. Country-wide protests The primary Twitter account associated with the Black Lives Matter said the movement "advocates dignity, justice and freedom. Not murder". #BlackLivesMatter advocates dignity, justice and freedom. Not murder. — Black Lives Matter (@Blklivesmatter) July 8, 2016 Speaking to Al Jazeera from Washington DC, Debbie Hines, a lawyer and former Baltimore city prosecutor said the "vigilantism is not going to solve any of the problems we have in the US". "The divisiveness is caused by institutionalised racism in this country, and that's not an easy fix. But I think that on a simplistic level the police have to be retrained," she said. "One thing we need to do is to get a hold of how pervasive the problem is and that would mean a national database of collections of how many officer-involved shootings and police brutality, as well as officer-involved deaths, that we presently don't have." The protest in downtown Dallas was called after police killed two black men within 48 hours earlier this week - Alton Sterling in Louisiana on Tuesday and Philando Castile in Minnesota on Wednesday. Both the mayor and the police chief said the protest was peaceful. Several protests that took place across the country passed without incident. Castile was shot dead by a police officer while he was in a car with his partner Diamond Reynolds and her daughter in a St Paul suburb. Source ALJAZEERA

Thanking God At All Times Jul 08, 2016 Lifting up your hands and thanking God is spontaneous and easy when you have just received a wonderful blessing: “God, I can’t thank You enough for this miracle!” “Thank You Father, for answering my prayer!” “Father, thank You for the windfall!” Perhaps you came close to being in a fatal accident, but God plucked you out of danger just in time. Or your grandmother, an unbeliever for many years, finally received Jesus as her Savior and got healed of a long-term disease. But there are times when you don’t feel like lifting up your hands to thank and praise God, yet you do it. Perhaps you feel very discouraged lately. Perhaps everything is going wrong for you and you feel like your life is in a mess. You can’t hold back the tears. Yet, you make a conscious decision to lift your hands and thank God for being in the situation with you. You open your mouth and begin to praise Him even though you really don’t feel like doing it. In the midst of the trial that you are going through, you praise Him that He is your righteousness in spite of all the mistakes you have made. You thank Him that He is your Prince of Peace, and that His peace will arise in you and still the storms in your life. My friend, God sees and appreciates such times when, despite feeling so discouraged, you offer a freewill thanksgiving offering to Him. In fact, your thanksgiving during such times is more highly prized by Him than your thanksgiving during those times when you are feeling joyful because you have just been blessed. And when you choose to thank Him for His unfailing love, and His faithfulness to deliver, protect and provide for you even when you don’t see the blessings yet, before long, you will find yourself experiencing and enjoying the blessings! So lift your hands and praise the Lord, for He is good, and His mercy endures forever! (Psalm 106:1) Thought For The Day God sees and appreciates those times when, despite feeling so discouraged, you offer a freewill thanksgiving offering to Him.
