Ignorance Is Infectious Check Your Basket

Let us be honest. Ignorance is not just a personal weakness like forgetting where you kept your charger or calling someone three times before remembering you put your phone on silent. No. Ignorance can actually grow legs, pack a small Ghana Must Go bag, and relocate from one generation to the next if nobody stops it.


The Bible already warned us.

Hosea 4 verse 6 says, My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.

Not harassed, not troubled, not mildly inconvenienced. Destroyed. Full finish. That is how powerful ignorance is.


And the funny part is this: you can be transferring ignorance without even knowing you own it. Family traditions do not need a meeting before they continue. One person carries nonsense, the next person collects it like inheritance. It is like passing a basket around. If your basket is full of error, guess what everybody after you will receive Very simple. More error.


Just imagine this scene for a moment.

You walk into a family function. Everybody is holding a basket. You open yours expecting wisdom and truth, only to find coconut heads behavior in the form of half baked ideas, recycled foolishness, and expired beliefs from 1962 still causing trouble. Next thing, you start handing it out to your children and grandchildren like party souvenirs.


This is why Proverbs 4 verse 7 says, Wisdom is the principal thing, therefore get wisdom. And with all your getting, get understanding.

Scripture did not say get vibes.

Scripture did not say get assumptions.

Scripture did not say get what Aunty Ngozi said on Facebook.

It said get understanding.


Because what you carry in your heart is exactly what you pass on.

If you store foolishness, foolishness graduates with distinction and moves into the next generation.

If you store truth, wisdom, and the counsel of God, then that is what becomes your family legacy.


So before you drag that basket into your future, pause.

Check it.

Remove the nonsense.

Add scripture.

Add truth.

Add wisdom.

Add sense.

And ask God to help you break every cycle you did not intentionally create but somehow inherited.


Your family deserves more than recycled ignorance disguised as culture.

Your children deserve truth, not confusion.

And generations after you will thank you for cleaning your basket.

    Truly refreshing. I hope this message gets across to more people. It's deeply saddening when ignorant people have an opportunity to spread information, just because they're older than most or they're well to do. Fools grow old too, fools have money too. Let's not take ignorant words and apply it in our lives.
    This is a hugely important information 💯
    I'm refreshed to have read it.

You Are Far More Important Than You Think

If God ever revealed how important you truly are, the weight of that truth would overwhelm you. Many of us live far below the identity heaven has spoken over us. We see our flaws, our fears, and our failures. God sees purpose, strength, and calling. The truth is that most people do not believe they matter as much as they actually do. If God sat you down and unfolded the full picture of who you are in His eyes, the revelation would come as a shock. It would be greater than anything you have ever imagined because His perspective is not limited by what you see in the mirror. Consider Gideon in Judges 6. He was hiding from his enemies, convinced he was the weakest in his family and the least among his people. Yet God approached him with a completely different identity and called him a mighty man of valor. Gideon could not reconcile what God said with what he believed about himself, because divine identity always reaches beyond human insecurity. This is what happens when God speaks. H...

The One Hundred Year Hotel Stay

Life on earth is basically a one hundred year hotel stay. If you are fortunate, you might land the penthouse suite with fresh towels, working air conditioning, and room service that actually arrives before you give up. But no matter how fancy your room is, checkout time is guaranteed. Everyone eventually gets that polite knock on the door. Eternity is something entirely different. There is no checkout. There is no expiration date. There is no reminder card under the door saying you must be out by eleven in the morning. Compared to eternity, even a full century of good living is a single grain of rice in a very large sack. Temporary life can be pleasant, yes, but it is not the main event. Eternal life with God is the real treasure, the investment that never depreciates, the experience that does not end. So do not exchange eternity for temporary treats that vanish faster than a plate of roadside snacks. Choose the feast that lasts forever.

1000 Ways to Die… and You Control Exactly Zero of Them

By -

Let’s be honest, life is  wild.  There are literally a thousand ways to die.  and most of them you’ll never see coming. You could choke on a peanut, trip over your own shoelace, get hit by a runaway wheelbarrow, or, heaven forbid,get knocked out by a falling coconut. And yet, we walk around pretending we’re the ones in control. We cross-check expiration dates, drink detox smoothies, avoid carbs like they’re demons, and still  bam!  life reminds us that control is just a nice illusion. You can’t plan everything. You can’t predict everything. You can’t even sneeze in public without people looking at you like you triggered the apocalypse.   But here’s the funny part: God  can He’s the One who knows exactly how long you’ll live , not coconuts, not peanuts, not gravity, and certainly not your shoelaces. When the Bible says, “He has numbered your days,” it means that no accident, allergy, or clumsy moment can end your life before ...
