KEMI ADETAYO @kemi_odutayo WAS OUR 3RD GUEST SPEAKER ON THE APRIL EDITION OF#AARTalk. SHE SHARED ON "YOU ARE MORE THAN THIS."
We really don't have any excuse not to move on irrespective of our circumstances. We are all bigger than our circumstances and we can truly defeat them if will don't give up on ourselves. Life still continues no matter what we passed through. It was really a mind-blowing session. Have a good read here.....#Enjoy
I count it a great honor to come and encourage us today on #AARTalk, the brainchild of @Bunmi_Sobowale @KICKagainstRAPE
Today, i will be tweeting on, "YOU ARE MORE THAN THIS!" This is specifically 4 all SURVIVORS and everyone life has happened to.
Oh yeah! Life happens! Bad things do happen to good people and vice versa.Tough times don't last but tough people do. .
We also need to understand that as humans, we are so important to God that He loves us despite our past .
Your life is too small (in the scheme of things) to be the whole essence of your being .
Yeah! Too Small! There is a 'big picture' and YOU are right in the middle of it! .
YOU are a MATTER that matters! You have WEIGHT and YOU are meant to OCCUPY a space
Would you allow your past to cheat you of your future? Granted, when you think of that/those incident(s)...
...you feel the pain/horror/shock all over again. But you know what?
You can put a stop to it! No one makes much progress while driving by constantly looking in the rear view mirror.
No one moves forward walking backwards without tripping over one thing or the other.
YOU ARE MORE THAN THIS! There is more to you than meet the eye! You are destined for greatness!
God wants to turn your mess into a message, your trials/tests into testimonies for the world to see @Bunmi_Sobowale
People can call you anything they like but you don't have to answer to whatever labels....
...they are trying to stick on you! Be it your parents, your siblings, cranky colleagues, friends or nosy neighbours of ours etc
You are who God says you are! You are a child of destiny, strength and favour! Seeds of greatness!
Guess what? The devil knows these too! He puts negative labels on you to frustrate you...
He wants to prevent you from reaching your highest potential. He wants to prevent you from being your best!
He doesn't want you to reach your 'destination' & that's why he tries to discourage, intimidate&make you feel inferior
Yeah! I get it! Getting rid of negative feelings and labels is like peeling off stickers that has been on a car for so long.
So so difficult. Painstakingly so! U might even get your finger-nails ripped off! But very possible! In fact, necessary! .
Reap off the stickers! Get rid of the negative labels! Refuse to sell yourself short. .
Again: YOU ARE NOT WHO PEOPLE SAY YOU ARE. YOU ARE NOT EVEN WHAT CIRCUMSTANCE PAINTS YOU TO BE! .
YOU ARE MORE THAN THESE! YOU ARE WHO GOD SAYS YOU ARE! .
The power those negative labels have on you is the one YOU gave them! Strip them of their power .
You might even be the one labeling yourself as 'tainted', 'victim', 'damaged', 'useless', 'used', 'not good enough'...
Others might call you these too. But guess what? You are NOT what they call you but you are WHAT YOU ANSWER TO.
Quit thinking like this! Quit believing these negative labels! The real battle is in your mind! Fight to win
Nothing that is spoken over you has to define you!
Nothing that happened to you in the past can define who you really are!
The difference between a dirty/old and clean/new £100 bill is superficial! The value remains the same!
The old bill has probably been squeezed, rumpled, trampled, dirtied etc but its value remains the SAME!
You are more than these! You are a SURVIVOR! God designed you exclusively and specifically for your race in life!
You have an assignment that only you can fulfill. Would you because of what happened deprive us of your uniqueness?
You may feel 'something' died in you the day you were violated but I want to let you know 'it' can come back to life
We just celebrated EASTER which is the celebration of the life and death of Jesus. He died&rose again! Awemazing!
My Muslim folks also believes 'Anobi Isa'(Jesus) is ALIVE! What am I driving at?
There is a power at work in Him - THE RESURRECTION POWER. This is the power that raised Him from the dead
BREAKING NEWS: THE RESURRECTION POWER IS AVAILABLE TO YOU TOO!
GOOD NEWS: If you trust and believe in Jesus, that resurrection power will be yours and you have a new zeal of life
Through Him, you receive the power to 'MOVE ON'! You need that power from within.
YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES! I ENJOIN YOU BY THE MERCIES OF GOD, TAKE ALL YOU HAVE & IMPACT YOUR GENERATION!
I pray from the depth of my heart that the bondage from your past shall have no effect on you anymore
Mind what you say and confess about yourself. Your confessions in the time of confusion is the conclusion of your condition.
Words are like seeds. If you dwell well on them, they will germinate.
I so much love these AFFIRMATIONS by our host @Bunmi_Sobowale Dwell on these!
A big thank you to @Bunmi_Sobowale and @KickAgainstRape for this great initiative-ABUSE AND RAPE TALK
50)Do have a wonderful weekend. I celebrate you all. We are all Survivors in this world. Let's not lose sight of this!
