@Yoga_Queen01 Are these things so? Can anyone truly buy their salvation with their own blood? I don't think so. Jesus says we should be ready. That's the most important thing. Don't plan to miss it. Matthew 25 gives us glimpse of what it'd be like for those who miss it, they're weren't let in.
Developers and designers would be here for many more decades & centuries to come. AI won't cut them off, AI would only empower them like it's empowering me today.
Do you want to learn how to make a living by leveraging new media?
FOLLOW!
To be the voice of validation someone needs to hear in order to learn some tech skills today. That's why.
Someone said there's no need to learn web development, graphic design, etc. in 2024 because AI is taking over.
It's not true.
Let's not even get to the massive value this adds to my young marriage, my mental health, my journey and sense of purpose, and my spiritual life.
Wny am I sharing these?
Anyways, back to my talk...my work allows me to
1. Live anywhere because I can work remotely
2. Thrive on the global economy because I can work for anyone from any part of the world
3. Have a side business (if I want) because I'm not tied to a 9–5 job
Deep down I knew that I would always have work to do regardless of the flyers. But you know, sometimes you have to do things to clear not your own doubts (if you know what I mean) 😎
Up until today being the first day of a new month, we haven't gotten a call or any client from Ilorin. Not ONE! But I've always had jobs to do by the mercies of God. Always!!!
Well, we printed some flyers to advertise my writing and website development business. My wife and I shared them together in the business areas of Ilorin. We did this even before our wedding (October 28), and have still been sharing whenever we can. The result?
@Naija_PR Web and graphics design if you know your onions. And also academic writing for students (Nigerians in diaspora and foreigners) if you know how to leverage tech.
Meanwhile, me and my guys would be teaching some of these things FREE to interested Nigerians. So watch out for that.
Before the cross, Jesus was an influencer. Do you know what that means? Besides the fact that people supported Him financially and He had a treasurer and fin. sec., He could also print money on demand—an ability that many have mastered today, believers and unbelievers alike.

A question was asked in church today that made me realize just how far believers are from making wealth.
The question:
How am I serving God faithfully and yet I don't have financial and material blessings?
What's wrong with the question? One might ask. Well, a lot.
I was even more surprised when someone's answer was like: Jesus suffered throughout His stay on earth, He was poor, etc 😭
Many believers would die poor and handover a heritage of poverty to their children.
Wealth doesn't come to meet you, you go out and GET wealth—that's what God empowers you to do.
Most people really think Jesus lived a poor life on earth. FYI, it was on the cross that He was made poor (cursed, sin, etc) for you and I.
Jesus Himself said the children of the world are wiser than God's children when it comes to getting and keeping wealth.
Many believers are sitting idle or with a work that don't have wealth or expansion capacity and are waiting for wealth to come meet them.
No matter how faithful you are to the Lord, it won't translate to material and financial wealth. Or else why do we have so many wealthy unbelievers? Wealth is a result, not a gift. A result of diligence with the right work, fruitfulness, partnerships, etc—not faithfulness to God.
The question and answer reveals misconceptions in the minds of believers about wealth creation and the supernatural life of Jesus. Let's begin with the question:
Christianity is not a ticket to wealth.
