Hello, people always say "Life is not fair" but I say "God makes life faithful for us". Today I am going to be talking on our star and how to make it shine brighter.

First off, STARS are created as Heavenly entities to shine. Every star was created to shine, we all have stars and we must dominate with them and use them well. Some have the star of playing football, others singing, producing music, dancing e.t.c. we all have different stars; please do not copy someone else's star and think it's the same as yours. The appearance of your star is what gives you an identity, that's why I always say that "I refuse to be the same and I refuse to be like others".

HOW TO MAKE YOUR STAR SHINE BRIGHTER THAN OTHERS

• The hotter the brighter: If you are not fired up, life will fire you.

Obadiah 1:18 says that the house of Ja'-cob shall be a fire and the house of Jo'-seph a flame. A flame is the end product of a fire, so therefore; the fire is hotter than the flame. You must be fired up to keep your star shinning because, your star puts you in a class of Glory. The hotness and brightness of your star puts you in a category.

Fire burns and orders it takes no permission, it authorizes and does not beg (Isaiah 14:13, Revelation 8:11).
Just imagine putting on your gas and warming your food, the fire from the gas does not beg the food to get hot, it burns it with authority; if care is not taken there would be no food left, so you have to burn and not beg.

• Stars stay on point: Do not move around from one place to another trying to do everything, stay in a place and be good in something. Stars don't move around except if they are on a mission.

• Don't give yourself to criticism: If you keep listening to what people say, you will live a confused life.

• Do not listen and watch news, make the news: Don't go about listening to other people successes hoping and wishing to be successful one day, try something new today and your success story will begin.

• Do not give yourself to manipulation: Manipulation will lead you to destruction, try not to get manipulated.

• Do not be offended: Always try not to take offense in everyone.

HOW TO INCREASE YOUR FIRE

• You must be addicted to the word of God:
  

Be a word habit and not a world habit (Hebrews 4:12, colossians 3:15, Acts 20:32). You must be filled up with the word of God, if there is no word there is no fire.

• Fasting and Prayer: Do not remember God when you have troubles and challenges, remember God always. Never live an emergency life, give yourself to prayer and fasting.

PRAYER POINT

• God grant me the grace to know my star and also to make it shine brighter over others.
• I will grow in your word Lord and not be an emergency Christian.
