Declaration: In the name of Jesus, I’m victorious.
I decree and I declare, from today I win only.
I go forward ever, backward never.
The lines are fallen for me in pleasant places.
The anointing of The Spirit is upon my head.
I receive wisdom from above. I know what to do.
The fire of God is burning on my life, in the name of Jesus.
I am light. I am salt. I am light. I am salt.
The hand of God is upon me. The grace of God is upon my life.
Therefore I go forward.
I make progress.
I go forward. No going back. No retrogression. No delay. Harvest of answers, in the name of Jesus.

A standard Rolex has about 200 moving parts. The Patek Philippe on Jay-Z's wrist at the Met Gala has 1,580. Patek spent 8 years designing it. Then over 100,000 hours building the first one. About 11 straight years of someone working 24 hours a day, no breaks.
It's called the Grandmaster Chime, the most complicated wristwatch Patek has ever made. The inner mechanism alone has 1,366 parts. It fits in a circle smaller than an Oreo cookie. The outer case adds another 214 parts, and the case alone took four years to design.
In watchmaking, a "complication" is just any function beyond telling you the time. Most watches in the "grand complication" category have 5 to 7. This one has 20. When it launched, no wristwatch in history had combined that many. It tracks the phase of the moon, accurate to one day's drift over 122 years. It also has five different ways to chime: one that automatically rings the hours and quarters, one that rings only the quarters, one you press a button to hear the current time, one that rings whatever alarm time you set, and one that chimes today's date on demand. The last two had never existed in any watch before. Both were invented by Patek's own president, Thierry Stern, a trained watchmaker himself.
The chiming makes this watch nearly impossible to copy. Inside each one are tiny coiled steel wires called gongs. A single watchmaker shapes and tunes each gong by hand, testing every note with their own ears. Just putting one chime mechanism together takes 200 to 300 hours. Then the watch goes into a soundproof chamber where the chime gets recorded and compared against decades of past Patek chimes. Only then is it brought to Thierry Stern. He listens. If he doesn't like the sound, the watch goes back. Sometimes more than once. A rejected watch can take 500 hours of rebuilding before he approves it.
This watch holds four power springs in total. One is dedicated to the chimes alone, separate from the spring driving the time. Inside the mechanism is a ball bearing 7.2mm wide. It holds seven steel balls, each 0.3mm across, smaller than grains of fine sand. They handle 1,700 gram-millimetres of twisting force from the chime springs without slipping. The case has 11 holes drilled through it for buttons and pushers, and somehow none of them ruin the chamber that lets the chimes ring out clearly. The case itself flips around to show either of its two different dials.
Fewer than five workshops on the planet can build something at this level. Patek Philippe is the one all the others measure themselves against.
Jay-Z's version lists at $6.5 million. The unique steel version sold for $31 million at Christie's in 2019. It still holds the record for the most expensive watch ever sold at auction.
Dear Lord,
Today, I’ve been strong so long I don’t even know how to ask for the right kind of help. People see me holding it together, they don’t see what it takes to be me mentally. Guard my mind from breaking in isolation. Send the right people—not just anybody, the ones who don’t switch up. Don’t let what I carry start changing who I am. In Jesus’ name, Amen🙏🏽

Zimbabwean illegal foreigner Sam Chabalala faked his way to success in South Africa.
Durban July is not just a horse racing event. It is a playground for the rich and famous.
But when Sam Chabalala's 72-car convoy of supercars rolled into Durban from Mpumalanga in 2019, photos started trending on social media, and it also drew the attention of the security force - the Hawks.
The Hawks' investigation opened a can of worms - Chabalala wasn't what he claimed to be; a South African, but a Zimbabwean who had fraudulently acquired his citizenship. His birth record could not be found at the clinic where he was born. Sam Chabalala was actually Gilbert Tachiona from Zimbabwe it was discovered.
The world started crumbling down on him and he faked his suicide and vanished from the face of the earth.
Following a lengthy investigation, Chabalala was arrested on 6 September 2019. Then what followed was his manager being shot on 12 September 2019, just after he gave the Hawks a sworn affidavit relating to an investigation about his boss.
Nkosinathi Ngcongo (30) was shot in the head and chest. The 26-year-old man accused of killing Nkosinathi was once Chabalala's bodyguard.
On 16 September 2019, Chabalala was granted R200,000 bail. He was facing corruption, bribery, and fraud charges. He was arrested yet again in February 2020 for trying to bribe an official to release his impounded car. He paid the official a R120,000 bribe.
On 26 February 2020, Chabalala was granted R500,000 bail yet again despite efforts by the State to block it.
The matter was postponed to 13 March, but he did not turn up for court. He then went to leave a note for his wife saying he planned to kill himself. In his note to his wife, Lerato Legodi, he said he was scared that he was going to be killed. He sent the same note to some of his employees at Sam Holdings. "I know, my wife, you wish to bury my body (sic), but I hope you will be able to find the remaining (sic) of me as I am going to throw myself into the crocodile river or game after Pongola as you go to Lwulwuwe( Hluhluwe) N2. I have hiked to come here," said the suicide note
Sam Chabalala has never been seen since that day in March 2020.
Chabalala had built an empire called Sam Holdings which was a logistics and haulage company based in Mpumalanga employing hundreds of illegal foreigners. The SA government and creditors are in the process of repossessing the company's assets. And Sam remains missing without a trace. Some are saying he is still alive with a new South African identity and is picking up the pieces again to the top.
