Quotes by Taiwo Odukoya

The same things which disqualify you is what makes you a perfect candidate for Grace. God is always seeking avenues to display His strength through you. The weaker you are, the more evident His power becomes. Learn to rest in His ability. Let the supernatural be manifest in your life.

Life often throws up hard-hitting situations. But the truth is, God will never tempt us beyond our ability to bear. So, however dark the circumstances may be; however lonely you feel, know that you have the strength of God within you to pull through with joy. The writers of the epistles, no strangers to tribulation, urge us to rejoice through the good times, and through the bad.

Exposing yourself to consistent negative feedback will invariably attack your faith. Who are you listening to? What voices are you permitting to influence your thoughts? It is time to shut out every opinion that contradicts God's word concerning you. Stop engaging in careless social talk that does not edify. Words are powerful. Make sure the ones you listen to will add and not take away from you.
