INVEST IN YOUR PRAYER LIFE

Posted on by Cïey Dada 🎨

Ladies and gentlemen I am Ciey Dada and this is my yet another growth piece on the art of writing. Hope you came open minded today because we about to right some ignorant common prayer aspect errors right here on shoutforjoy.art.blog .

Many at times our attitudes comes against God. Someone back me here because I am sure that we have all heard the saying that GOD ANSWERS PRAYERS //amen// and yes and certain the Lord does answer prayers but you ought to be obedient and have pure prayer motives and always present your prayer in supplication. Just as our homes are an extended dimension of us so is prayer an extension of our belief in Christ. We ought to remember that just as words without works is pointless and so exactly is ones faith without works. Without a source there is no river and so how do you expect there to be a flow in your belief if you do not pray – not only pray to bless your meal but pray to communicate with God ?

GOD IS A VERY LOVING GOD , VERY WONDERFUL AND MERCIFUL YET WHEN IT COMES TO RECOGNITION >>> GOD GETS FIRM TOO.

Prayer is what activates the armor of God . Prayer involves the recognition of our own needs. People who know they need to pray recognize they need God. People that do not pray do not recognize the need. Prayer involves sacrifice. Prayer involves surrendering. The word prayer has a sacrifice to it. Those who surrender to God are always helped by God . Another aspect of Christianity is that when you start taking care of others God takes care of you because that is being selfless. PRAYER IS A TANK AND JUST LIKE ANY OTHER TANK IT OUGHT TO BE REFILLED.

-( when you start taking care of others God takes care of you ) – I just want to focus on this line alone and say that it is a sad reality that many people have an understanding I will sit back not pray for myself on my own because someone else always does for me and as ignorant and disgusting and and and and discouraging as it is guys there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with someone else helping okay I repeat HELPING right and not PRAYING YOUR PRAYERS FOR YOU WHILST YOU CHILL and do all that is not worth the energy. Look we all make heaven on our own with help from the holy ghost spirit because that is our helper yet if you sitting doing nothing for that glory how do expect to make heaven your home ? I kidd you not you are not helping yourself at all not at all.

GOD SAYS : you are loved , you are chosen , you are redeemed , you are favoured , you are blessed , you are healed , you have a purpose and an amazing destiny.

Ladies and gentleman I am Ciey Dada this is my 5cents of input for the day. Remember you are a purpose so DO NOT ALLOW YOURSELF GET DEFEATED. I say if you willing God is willing , if you struggling God can help. Reach out so that you can grow , grow and grow if you have not yet started growing because growth is not easy yet it is worth it.

Pro-claim-ing. Whichever breakup of the word you go for has to have claim in it so we might as well say *claim*

Growth is not easy

Posted on by Cïey Dada 🎨

A very goooooooood morning everybody and welcome back to my growth page. So with today’s growth piece we going to be discussing the ways of growth.

First things first everybody we ought to understand that : “GROWTH IS NOT EASY” 🙃

With a few of us to earn an income at home we had to complete our given chore(s) as frequent as agreed upon. Perhaps you might think it’s not necessary but hey look at it this way … whilst you completing your duty you also earning an income and learning very essential skills [HELLO]. Guys look at this you need to be serious about what you doing *DON’T TELL YOURSELF THAT YOU TOO YOUNG TO DO SOMETHING AND OR ACCOMPLISH SOMETHING* because oh no boo boo , IF TIMOTHY AND SAMUEL TOO WERE YOUNG YET THEY MADE THINGS HAPPEN. If your personal dreams they don’t motivate you enough then oops check again. Open to a world of reality and possibilities awaiting you to go extra to achieve and rock them. Things happen better and greater if you’d actually show up for them.

Guys treasure whatsoever you’ve got with whomsoever you’ve got because this whole feel of * you never know what you’ve got until you’ve lost it* is not what you’d want to experience. Dreams are worth fighting for. Growth is worth fighting for. Peace is worth fighting for. Joy is worth fighting for. Your happiness is worth fighting for. If you look deep enough you’d realize that everything was already made available for you and all you got to do is go hard for them.

Ladies and gentlemen it’s Cïey Dada again on script and hope you’ll go hard for your growth because it is worth it since you are worth it. So remember to grow and glow always and maybe a little more at times 💋.

Different.

Greetings everybody it’s Cïey Dada again and I am back with yet another versatile virtual growth piece. There is absolutely no place on this earth that has everything exactly the same. Nope there is not. For even same company franchises differ perhaps in service depending on where they open for business.

Imagine a world where everyone looked a specific way and that is in accordance to but one thing , where we all dressed as one , spoke like one … just imagine that. The thought of a world like that is drooling and catchy yet we all know it’s impossible. For when God created us in His image He could easily have had chosen to create us all looking the same yet He did not and as for me I love that because I love variety , I love the knowledge, peace, exposure and chance upon chances of opportunities that come with being with and within difference and placed in different spaces.

Even with the disciples nobody looked the same and even though Jesus knew everyone , their names and their deeds nothing about them was exactly the same and this helped to differentiate them in their various roles that they played by Jesus’ side as His disciples. A great example of the beauty of differentiation would be identical twins , yes they identical because they look alike but beware that though those two might be physically identical because of their appearances and maybe height too yes and they match attires too at times if not always and this could probably worsen the chances of differentiating them correctly. Yet it is very rare too that you’d find their likes to be the same or their goals.

God made us all different to fulfill His joy and that of ourselves as we live on this earth. I for one only learnt something about myself back in 2020. This truth was made known to be by a friend that one side of my entire body parts as a collection in comparison to the other is of a larger piece and you could stare at me for hours maybe more or maybe less and if you spot on you could perhaps notice this slightly immediately. Funny story I loved me more becauseI didn’t care because after this one friend’s statement I heard it about 2 or 3 times again from other people. Look confidence is something of within. If you ace it on the inside it will eventually if not immediately show on your outside 🦋.

We were and we’re all perfectly, beautifully, powerfully and wonderfully made to suit God’s description, definition and placement of and for us. Stop fighting society and its people’s opinions about you – true it is bound to hurt you and at times disturb your peace and ease but you ought to remember the battle is the Lords’ and that too has its perks of beauty 🦋😊.

Ladies and gentlemen it is Cïey Dada behind the keyboard and I’m proud to have written the growth piece you had just read. Remember to grow here , grow there , grow then , grow today , grow tomorrow and grow and glow always 💋

Acceptance

Posted on by Cïey Dada 🎨

Good day ladies and gentlemen I am Cïey Dada back on script and we about to grow today because this piece has certain truths that has to be told. Maybe you need to tell it to yourself or someone has to tell it to you but then either way we about to grow everybody, so let’s get to it.

So I’ve titled today’s piece acceptance. In a simple dictionary meaning acceptance means: taking something that somebody offers you or asks you to have … well that definition was not what or made neither of the point or points I was trying to get to make here. The acceptance I’m talking about is when you get to the point of gratitude and have all your responses be like  “yes Lord , thank you Lord, your way lord , your word Lord” or the popular saying these days is “it is what it is” . Now with that being said I’m not encouraging the type of acceptance where you’d stick around to be taken advantage of. Sadly so in life at times when we put others first – when we altruistic then we taken advantage of.

The point I’m trying to make or type of acceptance I’m trying to explain is that when you come to a reality check and reflection enough to realize that “hey I’m actually getting wasted here” . Now once again when I say wasted I’m not speaking of drinking yourself beyond control to get away from your reality for as long as you’ll be under the influence. Guys  I’m talking about sticking around and getting wasted by people you know are purposefully wasting literally anything and everything you offering and this is because you around, available and reliable.

Not everyone we picture ourselves together with will actually end up part of our lives . Allow that to sink in because it is a tough pill to swallow and I know so. We might say I don’t care infront of others but at times we cannot come to terms with reality from within. You know it is true as lighting ones mind is a very powerful weapon because at times we meet people and or situations and we already picture and project how everything will turn out and when it does we shatter.

Well that is why we are encouraged to love everyone on earth and yet trust absolutely NOBODY. Only God deserves our trust because He is not a man to lie and or fail us if only you’d avail yourself for Him.

So I wrote today’s post because I know at times if not every day and in every situation we choose to overlook the truth because it hurts us. Well then unfortunately sulking will help NOBODY because it hasn’t done so before and it certainly won’t start now.

My encouragement today is that we accept ourselves and our lives as is. Accept your family as is – not everyone was fortunate to be born in a family where money is a member of the family. Not everyone can live in the same societal status because we won’t know ourselves. Accept your standout points for what they are. Accept that you won’t be like everyone else. Accept that even as a family you won’t always be at peace and ease with one another yet they the exact same people you wouldn’t exchange in this world. Accept that not everyone will understand your logic , not even your own mother but then that’s why you are related and not exactly in the same body 😁.

Quick testimony on behalf of a friend : her dad left them because the mom had two daughters and he so badly wanted a son, that thing damaged the entire household’s relationship with the dad. I mean like it’s the male organism that actually determines the gender of a child but then that is the sad and disgusting reality of many of our African homes. So the dad left the family  and left the mom to single handedly care for the girls on her own. This caused the mother’s family to label her all sorts of common names along with the husband’s family too because she couldn’t save her marriage. My friend battled with so much insecurities growing up because at first they would force themselves to be in the dad’s life, or have him in their lives but it didn’t work until they were encouraged by who I cannot remember to prayer to God for acceptance and slowly but surely the void still had it’s effects but yoh we move and they moved for the better because they can now come to terms with reality and just be grateful to God because it is His will to be done and not theirs. I witnessed her grow and change for the better once she had accepted this prayer and actually did t just pray it no more for the sake of prayer but she changed for the better because she trusted God to fill this having a father figure in her life ambition for her and hey He did and does. I mean imagine knowing the area your parent lives in but you go there praying to not see him because it ends in on one insult or the other. We human you know and eventually we put our foot down and be like that’s it I’m done then that’s it.

Guys the world and the life we live on these grounds are nowhere compared to those we would love with Christ one day but it can be if you ensure every moment of yours is lived in peace , gratitude and acceptance towards what you cannot control.

Today I encourage you to pray to God to be able to remain going when nothing is working out for you, Tru dat that maybe you’ll loose some and have to start at the very beginning to build up again but what else would you do that go back to the source and often when you go check out your source you’d realize there is an innocent lack of acceptance there. Pray to God that you can do your best in all situations. Pray that you can accept reality without always asking why because then you’ll be able to hear God say “ENOUGH” as response to all you battle with , because” the battle is the Lords’* beloved.

Last but not least if you are in South Africa or just know about it then *Happy Youth Day*. I say celebrate your youth because with the blink of an eye it might all be over and with that being sad be wise how you celebrate 💋.

Ladies and gentlemen I’ve spoken quite a lot but hope that I’ve gotten a message across if not 02 on acceptance. It’s a very sensitive topic for many others and forgive me if I came across unsympathetic at all in any of my lines but then hey somebody has to be the bad guy in order for us all to genuinely and fully grow and keep at that feel(s) and ambiance.

Mistakes are correctable

Posted on by Cïey Dada 🎨

  • 2 Corinthians 12vs9-10 : ⁹”My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” I will all the more gladly boast of my weaknesses ,that the power of Christ may rest upon me.¹⁰For the sake of Christ,then I am content with the weaknesses ,insults ,hardships ,persecutions, and calamities for when I am weak then I am strong.

Hi there everyone. This is Cïey Dada and through my shout4joyarts blog site I’m back yet again with another art piece titled *mistakes are correctable*.

Mistake : something that you think or do that is wrong.

We all wake up every morning with the aim to get things right for the day yet that alone is our biggest mistake because by now we should all know that mistakes are part of our lives and yessir whether we like it or not *we plan but God decides*. Mistakes are what help us grow and yes we can find people to blame but then again God always knows best and at times you not stupid no! , it’s not that you not good enough no! , it’s not that God doesn’t love you no more nope! it’s not and most defs is it not that the devil just has it bad for you,no! .*It is just life* at times (take a deep sigh after reading that line). We all have made and are yet to make so many more mistakes. At times it’s repeated , worse than that of the other or maybe you honestly *did not know it was not what you were thinking it was* 😩. At times we make mistakes because we act out of anger but the major one here is when you acting on emotions. Ouch oh no ! Now that one that begins with an *E* and ends with a *N* if singular or maybe a *S* if plural is the most terrible of it all. Wait lemme and not let me tell you that these mistakes that gets us so much of that bad or awkward reactions from people actually builds us up for the better

There is an African proverb that reads something along the lines of : you have got to let the child burn so that the next time they will know to not even want to warm their hands there.

Moral of this proverb is simply that at times one just has to be allowed to burn or get hurt by whatsoever they choosing to do so that next time they’ll know better.

There is yet another African proverb that reads : what an elder sees whilst sitting a child cannot see even when on top of the highest tree.

That one I’m sure it’s pretty self explanatory but if not then let me tell you that it simply means elders can foresee the outcome of so many things that no matter how intelligent or well equiped the young think they are with their ways yet still it is nothing.

Wisdom : knowing and understanding a lot about many things and able to make sensible decisions.
Some people think that the old age brings *wisdom* 💣
Wisdom is something sincere and found within everyone yet not everyone has developed it or even learnt how to use it and maintain it.

Remember this “What gets measured gets accomplished” .

Today I want you to stand infront of not any random mirror but one that you stand infront of when you feel you are most confident and most well dressed and tell yourself that with everything I do I’ll do it wholeheartedly because I’ve got – “a strong mind. strong bones. strong voice. strong energy. strong mind. strong bones. strong voice. strong heart”.

Ladies and gentlemen I am Cïey Dada and that was my piece for the day. Guys the world is ending and we got to stop letting our mistakes define us and rather focus on the bigger picture which is the building of the kingdom of Christ. The bible speaks of the happenings of the end times and we are seeing a few of those already. So get your heart right with Christ because sin, denial and delusions have it’s salary of death and trust me the pleasures of the world is not worth you denying yourself to be a participant of the grace , love and mercy of our God. Now that is it from me for the day, don’t forget to keep growing , growing and growing ✨💃

Consider yourself blessed ✨

Growing up or just living with an essential and primary void makes it easy for one to go searching for means of filling up this void in all the wrong places and directions.

Ladies and gentlemen I am Cïey Dada on the art of writing again and today I want us to talk. So let’s throw out all our toys and have fun whilst and as we talk and grow from what we learn. So here we go as as we put the good in the good with the good ones and we put the bad in the past and now we alright , yeah 🌻.

Imagine growing up with either or neither of your parents present in your life. Well if you have been fortunate to have both your parents with you then you most defs cannot begin to imagine the pain. Another example would be if you never had to experience going to bed on an empty stomach and or having to go to school on a rainy day under the rain on an empty stomach and probably on an empty stomach throughout the school hours all because you want to get educated and various other students are either stuck at home doing nothing or working piece jobs to be able to either feed their family or fend for their family and also save up to pay for their school fees because they have nobody to fund their studies further than their secondary education. If you had never thought of any of this then maybe now is the time you start weighing your blessings against your issues because as humans we tend to pay all our attention to our issues and forget our blessings. So many children are battling diseases after illnesses because of lack of vital and necessary vitamins and nutrients because of the lack of proper meals and yet we complain when we cannot get the materialistic things we want when we want them and just because we want them and actually do not need them.

Life is an irony existence that can and will humble us when it deems fit to do so irrespective of who you are and what you are to inherit. Poverty is a reality for many yes and there is not much that they can do about their reality yes , yet poverty is also a thing of the mind . If you trap your mindset , thinking , efforts and words then the results of all your doings will have poverty as a result.

Muslims in Palestine have bigger problems than the delay of the wants you can hold on for. # PRAYFORPALESTINE. and that is it from me for today , hope you grow if you had not yet began to grow.

Mind you to not do you wrong 😩

Posted on by Cïey Dada 🎨

Hey guys how do we do with the world fighting the virus , India fighting a worse fight against the virus , Muslims facing death at all times of the day in Palestine and Israel having it’s own battle.

So today I just wanna throw random thoughts out there about one thing and another or maybe even more.

You know guys I seriously think we take the essential things we got for granted way too often. Take for example the freedom of expression our generation has.

Anyways back to the talk of the day : You know it is as easy as drinking water for one to get locked inn on to their own problems. Often at times things go from bad to worse and other times they work for the better. Problems will and they already come and go as is and yet as people we stay. We still grow , storm , form, perform and we move. The irony in life is how we have no control over time and the happenings of life and also as humans we are quick to judge a situation and often before it is hardly halfway through. I know this because I am human with faults too and I have on numerous occasions done the mishap mentioned in the previous sentence. I suppose what helps with coming to terms with whatsoever we face in life is just to just allow ourselves *PROCESS* !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! things at times. There are certain issues where nothing seems relevant to solve it yet with the processing of things and when you allow yourself time to come to terms with the issues it saves us from the trap of believing you healed yet you all rolled up in denial emotions.

Life will break us at times and leave us damaged too at times yet we need to remember you that we owe it to ourselves as individuals and Jesus who spares your life day after day to fight to recover and be victorious.

Ladies and gentlemen I am Cïey Dada whom is behind this yet another art of writing piece and I say when you remember how fortunate you are to be able to say your prayers today remember to pray for India , Palestine and Israel too 🙏🌻

IS IT OR ARE THEY WORTH IT ?

Posted on by Cïey Dada 🎨

Ladies and gentlemen I am Cïey Dada and I come in spirits of growth as I pass on my greetings followed by today’s art piece.

You know as juniors to our seniors and situations they had faced before us we still got a lot to learn and grow and with. In a typical case a junior could have underwent more than their senior because life does not hand to us and/or carry us with the same hand. Some are just blessed and there is no two ways around or about it whilst others have had to live with from the hand to mouth situations from a tender age.

A very infamous yet relatable to many meme reads “life forced me to grow beyond my age”,and I choose to believe that the statement is self explanatory as is * (yet if it ain’t let me know and I’d gladly simplify it😃)*.So today I ask is it truly worth it ?

Is living in comparison worth it ? Is living in complexity worth it ? Is body shaming yourself worth it ? Is even the thought of bleaching yourself worth it ?

Look as it is being alive in these last and critical times are already rough yet a huge blessing and all you can dwell on is what you think you are *owed* .Like really why hurt and cause yourself all that harm ? Your body ain’t no meat that you got to slit to throughly be spiced for you to slit it so you could bleed your pain away. Your body is not a baby nor an elder checking on something for you to force the throw up of your food so that you do not gain any weight to keep a perfect figure. Your body is not a stained item that you got to bleach to remove the stain and brighten. NOPE !, your body is part of the diginity since your spirit cannot be seen but be heard alone. Your body is a reflection of Christ’s thought and thoughts of you. Your body is a part of Christ himself that you fill. Your body was created along with your spirit to bring an addition to the service(s) for Christ. So therefore we ought to allow and keep our body aligned and reflected to the greatness we have within.

Ladies and gentlemen that was my piece for us to begin the week with. It is bound to be a productive and grow filled week if you’ll dig very deep from within and allow and embrace the impact of growth on yourself and others so we can all grow, grow, grow and grow 🌻
