  The easiest way to succeed in life is through relationships
• 1:56
  and destiny connections. Unfortunately, it is also the
• 2:02
  easiest way to fail in life. The easiest way to succeed in
• 2:06
  life is through relationships and destiny connections.
• 2:10
  But the easiest way to fail to in life is through relationships
• 2:15
  and destiny connections or wrong connections.
• 2:21
  Are we learning so far Now we have several kinds of
• 2:24
  relationships. Please look up lend me your
• 2:26
  attention. Relationships are not linear.
• 2:29
  In terms of engagement. We have several kinds of
• 2:33
  relationships and at least for you, a few.
• 2:35
  For instance, we have family relationships.
• 2:38
  Hallelujah. For instance, we have we have
• 2:44
  professional relationships. So relationships, for instance,
• 2:47
  between a family relationships, siblings, loved ones both
• 2:52
  nuclear and extended and that the implication of those
• 2:55
  relationships can in ways both small and great affect your life
• 2:59
  and affect your destiny. We have professional
• 3:02
  relationships, many of course, your career people, business
• 3:05
  owners, you know top executives and you know employees in many
• 3:10
  regards. And you know that if you you can
• 3:13
  do well in terms of your family relationship and fail in your
• 3:17
  professional relationship and it can peg your life.
• 3:20
  Are we together can peg your life.
• 3:23
  We have professional relationships.
• 3:26
  We have love relationships from relationships to marriage to
• 3:31
  relationship with spouses, children, you know, love
• 3:35
  intimate relationships. We have mentor mentee
• 3:40
  relationships, for instance, such as one that is found in
• 3:44
  institutions, found in mentorship platforms.
• 3:48
  The purpose is simply connection for the purpose of transferring
• 3:52
  knowledge, transferring experience, and helping to grow,
• 3:55
  helping to evolve an individual from a weaker version to a more
• 3:59
  superior version. I'm listening for you.
• 4:01
  The kinds of relationships that we have.
• 4:03
  We have what we call community relationships, for instance.
• 4:07
  This represents the bond that is formed with people within your
• 4:12
  local area and your community. Everybody here lives within a
• 4:16
  neighborhood and in most neighborhoods, unfortunately, it
• 4:19
  is not so now because of westernization and urban life.
• 4:23
  What most of us know that growing up the average family
• 4:27
  had some neighbors and because of that level of relationship,
• 4:30
  everything was everybody's business.
• 4:32
  When you hear a loud cry, everybody comes out to say what
• 4:35
  is wrong. You still remember a neighbor
• 4:38
  can quickly spank a child from another house when they are
• 4:41
  going following bad friends and he says your mother is not
• 4:44
  around, but I'm your older mother.
• 4:45
  Go back home. You know, everybody becomes
• 4:47
  responsible for helping building someone during Salah.
• 4:51
  During Christmas, we have neighbors.
• 4:53
  It was almost an unwritten rule. I don't know if someone
• 4:56
  experienced that. They knock your house in the
• 4:58
  morning sometimes during Salah. You are happy waiting for your
• 5:01
  own portion, you know. And then during Christmas is the
• 5:04
  same thing. You find mothers, get up and
• 5:06
  they cook us. If they're going to serve the
• 5:08
  whole world and allocate you, you go and serve this one.
• 5:11
  Go and knock the door. Give this one.
• 5:13
  Even for neighbors that don't necessarily live in peace.
• 5:15
  They just know that we need one another.
• 5:19
  And for regions that have faced any kind of crisis, you know
• 5:21
  that working together becomes the key to remaining Hallelujah.
• 5:26
  If you insult people too much, a day of judgment is coming.
• 5:29
  The day you will need help. I remember one time when there
• 5:33
  was crisis, a man, very good man, he had to call all these
• 5:37
  rough boys. You know, these boys, you think
• 5:39
  that because they're the ones who don't have homes, they're
• 5:41
  the ones who fight. Nobody will push his child to go
• 5:45
  and fight, God forbid, during it, you know, religious crisis.
• 5:48
  And you gather the boys and just give them some money, even
• 5:51
  though you know what they'll do with it.
• 5:53
  That's your way of partnering with them so that they protect
• 5:55
  your house from damage and burns and all of those things.
• 5:59
  May God give us peace in the name of Jesus Christ.
• 6:03
  Community relationships you imagine?
• 6:06
  Do you know? I will not mention the name of
• 6:08
  the region, but I traveled one time to a region where I could
• 6:11
  not see any kind of connection. As far as neighborhood is
• 6:14
  concerned. Nobody's business is anybody's
• 6:17
  business. You don't know who your neighbor
• 6:19
  is. You greet someone passing, they
• 6:21
  don't answer you, they find it strange.
• 6:22
  Just live your life, do what you have to do, and return to your
• 6:26
  country when you're done. And I said, what sort of a life
• 6:28
  is this? And it's a subtle engineering is
• 6:32
  a corruption of our sociology because a time will come when,
• 6:36
  unfortunately, most people connect more to apps and their
• 6:39
  phones than they connect to men. You want to know how damaging
• 6:42
  this has become? I'm digressing for a reason.
• 6:45
  Go to the airport or go to any program where maybe they're
• 6:48
  about to do a sound check before they start.
• 6:50
  Almost everyone's head is down. What do you think they're doing?
• 6:53
  Good afternoon. OK, afternoon.
• 6:55
  They don't know who is speaking. Even it has, it has destroyed
• 7:00
  the attention span of people. They are not able to understand,
• 7:04
  to comprehend anything. Again, there's some apps
• 7:06
  somewhere, 20 apps. There are phones that have over
• 7:09
  100 apps and everybody, everyone trying to steal into your life
• 7:13
  and your time. Nothing wrong with them except
• 7:15
  that if they are not managed well, it can destroy this.
• 7:18
  And that's why many people, they don't know who to call when they
• 7:23
  are in trouble, because their whole investment has been on
• 7:26
  their phones, not their community, not relevant
• 7:29
  strategic people is someone learning tonight, praise the
• 7:32
  name of the Lord. So these among many others, we
• 7:35
  have these kinds of relationships and God expects
• 7:38
  that we excel in every one of these relationships because
• 7:41
  there are allocations to these relationships as far as the
• 7:46
  roles that they have to play in our life is concerned.
• 7:49
  One area of your relationships will go down and you'll be
• 7:52
  surprised how it would destroy almost every area of your life.
• 7:56
  I'm praying for someone already. By this wisdom in the name of
• 7:59
  Jesus, you will gain mastery over your relationships.
• 8:02
  You will gain mastery over your destiny.
• 8:05
  In Jesus mighty and marvelous name, we pray.
