INTRODUCTION
Holy Spirit you
are my best teacher, so there is no pressure on me to teach, I speak, but you
teach, so it is now your time of manifestation!
Whenever our
time does not correspond with God’s time, then we should host patience. In
God’s dealings with you; two things you should pray for are: Never to be ahead
of his time; and never to be behind his time.
Patience is not
laziness, as some think.
It implies not
getting the right thing in a wrong way or in the wrong time.
By phrase;
patience is waiting for my hot meal to gets cool to avoid mouth disaster.
Go with me into
the college of thought and think: if your destiny can be tied down by human
factors. If it could then many great men would have not been heard about.
Battles are won by listening to godly
advice and making a lot of plans. (Proverbs 24:6)
How sure you are
that success is certain? But still success is real.
Dear readers, it
pays a price to get a prize.
Life is full of
stories about men who gave up on their dreams of success due to one obstacle or
another;
Life doesn’t
often give us all we want. Life is like a movie, you are the actor and you must
always come out tops; young people are the principal forces of their lives
regardless of their background.
Today you should
keep your hopes high but don’t bank on anything yet.
Life is all about exchange (trade by barter) where a man with experience
and a wealthy man meet together for exchange, the man with experience will get
wealth while the man with wealth will acquire experience.
No man was born
‘on top’ but all men were born to be on top.
No man is great
until he dare to, and no man succeeded without a dream of success. You are
never great but until you find something special than you; and wish to dedicate
yourself on its behalf. You are never a Christian but until you paid up that
price called ‘FAITH’. Great people are ordinary people with an extra ordinary
amount of determination. There’s no doubt on a fact that, the plan made
yesterday was the product of this book; and the plan makes today will determine
tomorrow’s stories. The price for success is not much but the courage to dare
is the main cost of the prize. Success is certain! But to those who are ever ready
to liberate and activate the enthusiasm power within them. There is a force
called power within every mankind. You were born with thousand of this power,
but it won’t work until you liberate and activate it, then shall you see the
marvelous result at the end of the process.
This book is to
create influence by educating the readers on the qualities and essential
ingredients for a good success. Allow the ideas presented in this book bring
the most best out of your life; and again do not use your present situation as
a pointer to your future stories. Be bold of the greater things.
You are somebody
even if the people around you see you as no body. This book proofs the
assurance of success because you have been destined to succeed. And it could
likewise helps you negotiate and nurture your own personal dreams.

Chapter One
DREAM A DREAM.
One night Joseph had a dream.
(Genesis 37:5a)
When I use the
word “dream” the reference is not those shadowing images that flicker through
our minds when we are asleep. No; the dreams I’m saying about are the
indistinct hopes, the far-off vision, the faint stirrings of the imagination
that come when we are in the earliest stages of planning something worthwhile.
Every one of us has a dream that we hope to see become a reality either with
positive or negative impact. To be successful you must first have a dream. And
dreams know not boundaries of age, or race, or nationality. If you dream
something long enough and hard enough, a door seems to open and through that
door come mighty forces called “Enthusiasm power” that will guide and support
you in your efforts to make the dream come true.
If your heart is
conducive for the dream seed, and you nurtured it as expected, it will grow in
to reality, but if not nurture it will die without being fulfilled.
I assured you
that! “Great people are ordinary people with an extra ordinary amount of
determination,” no matter the dream in your heart today; hold on, hang on it,
because whatever dream God has put in your heart, do become a reality. Note!
Delay is never denial so hold on. And again, do not be intimidated by the
opposition and the possibility of failure, but keep your eyes on the rewards of
fulfilling your dreams. Because if there is no trials there won’t be a
testimony “Crown.” It’s a matter of time before a seed becomes a tree;
before a child becomes a man. Before a rookie become a guru. It’s all matter of
time consistence builds a continuous practice through time. Persistence
nourishes your consistent efforts against time. Patience carries you safely to
desired end in time. A seed might appear dead and forever buried. A dream might
seem ridiculous and absurd. A vision might look vague and wearied
But a forest
does start as a seed. A great harvest is always initiated by a dream. A mighty
accomplishment was once a time vision, wrapped up in an ordinary man’s womb –
the mind. All these successfully withstood the test of time. Everything is
wrapped up within time; the past, present, and future.
A moment, a
period, forever, and eternity is all a matter of time.
Keep the dream
on, keep the struggle hot, do not give up the fight for success; because in no
time that dream will come real and you will be celebrated in its time.
“A person who
risks nothing does nothing, has nothing and is nothing. Only a person who risks
is free.”
Chapter Two
EXTRACTION OF DREAM (DREAMING PROCESS)
We humans make plans, but the LORD has the
final word; we may think we know what is right, but the LORD is the judge of
our motives.
We make our own plans, but the LORD decides
where we will go. (Proverbs 16:1, 2, 9.)
We may make a lot of plans, but the LORD
will do what he has decided. (Proverbs 19: 21).
“Human mind is a
fountain of mix up thoughts and imagination of good and evil.”
Just like a seed
that goes through the process of growth to become a tree and bear fruits, and a
woman that waits nine months to hold her baby in her arms, so also your dream
can not happen or come to pass instantly but has to go through a process. As an
author of this publication; there’s one happening that has never stops amazing
me on the current subject of discussion a “dream”. Though there are several dreamers
among us, but many of them lack knowledge to explain how it works.
I mean some
people do not for real identify their personal life’s dream (they are
gamblers).
By neglecting their
dreams and to either steal, or borrow another person’s dream. Such attitude
could either originate from a contaminated mind envying the achievement of
other persons, it often happened to envious and greedy people.
SCHOLARS AS BEST SUITED EXAMPLE: What
could be the probability of all one thousand students in twenty different
schools and colleges of a nation become either medical doctors, lawyers,
professors, accountants or writers as common ambition of every opportune
students in colleges?
Scholars are
good at gambling because they always wish and desire to be in a field of
majority, and with the above sense of mentality we have launched a competitive
ground for ourselves and the grandchildren to come. It is an acceptable fact
that only few were called to be, but today many have been by the influence of
desire and ambition, so this has disclosed a very clear truth why we lack the
genuine and qualified specialists in different fields of career and profession.
The questions you
should ask yourself are that I developed an ambition or desired to be is it a
divine call for me to be? What effect or contribution will that make on my
destiny?
Is that the
purpose of God for me? Or
I gambling wish
to be?
I was once a
victim of wrong ambition and dream; during my secondary school days, my
prioritized ambition and desire was to become a medical doctor, and the whole
thoughts behind this ambition was the believe that medical doctors tend to be
the richest people in the world, so as far as I dreamt to be rich in life
therefore I ought to be a medical specialist. This was a wrong and destructive
ambition. Even as I am not in a medical field, I am fulfilled, I am today a
teacher of God’s word, destiny empower, founder of Destiny Empowerment Global
Ministries, a writer and the copyright owner of this publication.
NOTE: Whenever you have a dream thoroughly
examine it first, then work toward it, but if such dream resulted from
selfishness, envious, greediness attitudes, and personal benefit instead of
general benefit; such a dream is vague and destructive.
I have a jump
out secondary school mate with no intention to continue his education, but day
after day he always come to me to announce “Sanjo (my dialect name) I wants to
join the police force work.”
People may be pure in their own eyes, but the LORD examines their
motives.
Whenever he
finished making his ambition known to me, the next action was to ask “Monday
(his name) what impression gear up your interest to join police force work?”
His regular
replies was “because I won chop for road,” the above reply expressed unhidden
truth that he want to be collecting bribes as all people known it to be the
common way of earning by the police men.
But do not
forget the first chapter of this book: Dream ‘a’ dream, and the next stage
after a dreaming process is the extraction of a dream. Why I called that a
dream extraction process? It is because the thought of all men are often
indefinite, human thoughts are often accompanied with some source or elements
of impurities.
The fastest and
easiest means of reaching the top ‘Becoming great’ is complying with the facts
above.
Take a little
study of the word “EXTRACTION” as
you do that you will get to realize that the word extraction as used in this
book means getting, deriving, determining, finding, and taking out the best out
of the mixed up thoughts or complicated matters, as the case may be during and
after your dreaming process.. Imagine if the refinery industries could be more
committed at practicing ‘extraction’ Akin to ‘refining’ which was their major
goal and objective in serving the nations (for the reason of making some useful
substances available for our own personal and general use; and such products
are petrol, gas, kerosene, coal, steel etc.) Then think of how much more of its
application to your daily dreaming process. When gold is melted, impurities
float to the top and can be skimmed off. Steel is tempered or strengthen by
heating it in fire. In the same way is the extraction of dream in our dreaming
process refine and strengthen our faith, believe and the possibility of
fulfilling those dreams. It is real that you have gotten temporal comfort base,
but that shouldn’t be your best place, don’t quit trying because you are never
a loser until you quit trying.
Your dream
neither weak nor sick, but you the dreamer do, so the solution are those ideas
you have just acquired from this chapter.

Confess
positively. Be rich in positive attitudes and be poor in negative attitudes.
