30 Lessons I picked From War Room

30 Lessons I picked From War Room (2015 Movie)

I was finally able to get hold of the movie I had very much anticipated. I decided to extract some lessons from it and make it into a blog post for you. War Room is a movie that every single lady should watch, keep, make reference to every now and then and share with other people.
Every scene has a take home message; every character has some attribute we can learn from. Lessons I personally picked from this movie may be an eye opener for you; they may also spur you into getting this movie for yourself and others around you.

1. “Victories don’t come by accident.” We map out deliberate prayer strategies to win spiritual battles.

2. There is usually a stray woman lurking around your husband; pray for him.

3. Marital conflict disturbs children psychologically. Parents need to be sensitive to the needs of their children emotionally.

4. As a wife, you should always consult your husband before making major family decisions. Even though Tony was unfair to Elizabeth, she should have talked to him before transferring money from the joint account.

5. We all need friends on whose shoulders we can cry on. You should have just this one friend you can confide in.

6. Quality friendship is something to invest in. Tony’s friend was a very good friend; he was really concerned about Tony.

7. Unhappy couples transfer a lot of aggression to people around them.

8. Older women have big responsibilities, including grooming younger women.

9. The Lord knows the future from the beginning. He gave the Williams family only one son because that was probably what she could cope with.

10. We should pray for strategies and opportunities to witness to people.

11. Personal evangelism involves spiritual sensitivity, seize moments and don’t waste time when you are supposed to speak to someone about Christ or at least start a conversation.

12. You can’t serve the Lord in a lukewarm fashion. You can either be hot or cold. God wants us to be hot.

13. Our prayer lives are battle grounds. Investing time in prayer will help us fight wars that we ordinarily can’t physically.

14. “Every couple has some friction now and then.” Backgrounds, personalities and temperaments are not same.

15. Continually quarreling with your husband will get you nowhere. Turn to the Lord instead and fight your battles in prayers.

16. There is always some extra time to pray. Plan your day to include prayer time. Elizabeth assumed she didn’t have much time to pray but guess what? She found out later that she did.

17. Children always wish they are in peaceful homes. Danielle wished she had Jennifer’s kind of parents.

18. An unhappy marriage can affect other areas of living. Peaceful homes are a breeding ground for success in other areas.

19. Too much focus on quarrelling will waste your time and energy. Even your children may never get the attention they need because you are busy channeling energy somewhere else.

20. Complaining isn’t the way out, turning to God is the way out.

21. Quality bible study helps to raise prayer points according to God’s will.

22. Let the Lord handle situations you cannot handle. It takes the stressing and the worrying away.

23. To have a fabulous prayer time with the Lord, put aside every form of distraction: smart phones for example.

24. Watch out so that your career does not replace devotion to your family. It is so easy to be caught up.

25. Never be ashamed of Jesus. He is always present in times of need. Ms.Clara boldly used the name of Jesus to stop the street thief and asked that the police document that she did so.

26. No matter how much you try to conceal it, a disastrous marriage affects other relationships.

27. “Submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee.”

28. Your joy does not come from things around you. For a Christian, your joy comes from the Lord.

29. Children watch you and walk in your footsteps. Danielle learned to have a prayer list just like her mom had.

30. Your attitude as a woman is enough to soften your husband's heart.

Thought And Purpose

          Until thought is linked with purpose there is no intelligent accomplishment. With the majority the bark of thought is allowed to "drift" upon the ocean of life. Aimlessness is a vice, and such drifting must not continue for him who would steer clear of catastrophe and destruction.         They who have no central purpose in their life fall an easy prey to petty worries, fears, troubles, and self-pityings, all of which are indications of weakness, which lead, just as surely as deliberately planned sins (though by a diff route), to failure, unhappyness, and loss, for weakness cannot persist in a power-evolving universe.         A man should conceive of a legitimate purpose in his heart, and set out to accomplish it. He should make this purpose the centralizing point of his thoughts. It may take the form of a spiritual ideal, or it may be a worldly object, ...

It was my EYEs

There was a blind girl who hated herself because she was blind. She hated everyone, except her loving boyfriend. He was always there for her. She told her boyfriend, 'If I could only see the world, I will marry you.' One day, someone donated a pair of eyes to her. When the bandages came off, she was able to see everything, including her boyfriend. He asked her,’ Now that you can see the world, will you marry me?' The girl looked at her boyfriend and saw that he was blind. The sight of his closed eyelids shocked her. She hadn't expected that. The thought of looking at them the rest of her life led her to refuse to marry him. Her boyfriend left her in tears and days later wrote a note to her saying: 'Take good care of your eyes, my dear, for before they were yours, they were mine.' This is how the human brain often works when our status changes. Only a very few remember what life was like before, and who was always by their side in the most painful situat...

The 50 New Rules of Work

The 50 New Rules of Work You are not just paid to work. You are paid to be uncomfortable – and to pursue projects that scare you. Take care of your relationships and the money will take care of itself. Lead you first. You can’t help others reach for their highest potential until you’re in the process of reaching for yours. To double your income, triple your rate of learning. While victims condemn change, leaders grow inspired by change. Small daily improvements over time create stunning results. Surround yourself with people courageous enough to speak truthfully about what’s best for your organization and the customers you serve. Don’t fall in love with your press releases. Every moment in front of a customer is a moment of truth (to either show you live by the values you profess – or you don’t). Copying what your competition is doing just leads to being second best. Become obsessed with the user experience such that every touchpoint ...
