The book "Why No Result !" deals with the problem of man and the
road that leads to it. It examines the different ways the divine
mandate of some destinies was destroyed by the destroyer through
the power of choice. Choice is one great ingredient of creation
that God bequeathed to man because it is elemental to His purpose
for man to dominate. This is not without some restraints because
whenever God gives an instruction, He speaks of a will or a
purpose. Many have lost contact with their destinies because of the
particular companionship of distraction which they voyaged into.
This book explores the different ways through which a great destiny
could lose contact with the results-oriented destiny listed for the
great one but find so missing. It is a self-examining prospect
which seeks to recoil you into the very life that was made up for
you on the cross of Calvary. It deals with the great questions of
destiny: where are you? With whom are you? Are you hid in the
provision? Have you surrendered to the enemy? Are you dead or
alive? Where is your command? A sincere self-examination would put
your life in a perspective of rerouting to God's path of
fulfillment. Detrimental companionship is the genesis of the
problem of mankind from time. Where you are can determine what and
how your life would be. God wants you to be where He has prepared
for you. He does all for you to be in the place of destiny. He did
for Adam by creating a garden of fellowship for him and his wife.
When Adam failed, God drove the first family from the place. God
desires that you and I should get to that place of destiny and that
is the reason He has not quitted preparing a good place for you
because He craves your fellowship. It is in fellowship that you can
get the attention of God and this is the ring that the devil does
not want you to be. You must thrive to do all you can to access
this because if you do, you would so find the RESULT. The result
would not come except you take up a fellowship and exert your
command which the last chapter deals with. When you have redeemed
your destiny by rerouting, the demand of the destiny will place the
command in your life. At this point, you would have found your feet
on the victory glide. You will be able to deal with all forms of
taskmasters which have bogged down your destiny because of a
restored fellowship with God. This book brings to the fore the
indefatigable and all-knowing God who is unlimited in all He does.
He created all things for His purpose, and He works all things to
suit His will if only the man defers to Him in all things. No
condition is difficult to sort out by God if only the victim has
sorted his or herself with God.
Marriage was God's idea. He decided that man and woman should be
"one flesh". Furthermore, the Bible says "God is love ".
Unfortunately, many couples never learned to love each other. A
feeling, passion or some other influence brought them together, but
they never learned how to study or explore each other, or discover
what makes them happy. When you do not know another person it is
impossible to love them because you do not know what pleases or
annoys them, their dreams and struggles, or how they think. In such
ignorance, you will make many mistakes in your relationship and so
cause many problems. These problems will cause you to withdraw,
even though you are married and were in love at one time. If you
have been wondering: Do I still love my husband/wife Did I marry
the wrong person Why is my partner so cold to me Why do we love
each other but can't stay together? How can I make sure my marriage
lasts? How can I live with a person who is so difficult? Why do our
problems go away, but then come back worse than before? Is my
marriage always going to be about hardships, or will I find
happiness one day? Cheer up! You will learn how to love
intelligently and how to be happy with your spouse, even if he (or
she) acts like King Kong.
