THE SLINGSHOT THEORY

Maximizing obscurity

Hello once again !

I hope this mail meets you well. I believe you are thriving . If you read my last mail to you, I am sure you learnt a thing or two. If not, I think you should really go and check it out.

In my last mail, I wrote about a life principle tagged “ The Scoreboard Principle”. In this mail I will be sharing another wisdom concept to aid the execution of your God-given assignment and help you attain the height God has ordained for you. In this mail I will be sharing a philosophy termed “ The Slingshot Theory “

The concept of the Slingshot theory revolves around the idea that many times to go far, there will be a drawing back at certain periods. It draws its inference from the object referred to as the Slingshot or also popularly referred to as the Catapult. This item could be used in a game, to hunt or any other thing. I believe you already fully well know what I am referring to.

So this concept is built on the foundation of the mechanics by which this instrument operates. Such that when you are about to be launched into a season of great things, there would have to be a backside preparation and it can as well be inferred that the more the challenges you encounter the farther God is taking you.

I strongly believe this is a very profound truth and can serve as an encouragement to anyone going through a tough time. That God reserves his strongest battles for his toughest soldiers and like David, when God is taking you to the palace, he will first take you to the backside of the desert where you will fight the Lion and the bear and where you will learn the skills necessary for shepherding and leading people.

This is expedient first because there is a level of capacity required of you for where God is taking you and while we thank God for the opportunity to learn from the lives of others through reading books, attending conferences and seminars and listening to the stories of other people, there is still a level of capacity that can only be built in the secret. It is often said that the champions are not made on the stage rather there is an unseen labour and effort that goes on behind the scenes of any great man’s life.

As thus, before David can stand before Goliath, he must have first killed the Lion and the bear.

What if the reason you are going through all that you might seemingly be going through is because it is a needed resume to face your Goliath that will later be your announcement as a national hero ? What if the seemingly oblivion you are currently in and it seems like the spot light is not on you is God’s way of calling you apart and to himself to prepare you for what he has in store for you? What if the different trials you are currently facing are working something in you that will be needed for the nations God is taking you.

So while you are anticipating your announcement and waiting to blow, maximize the time you have now when it seems like no one knows you in building yourself. This is because when your annunciation actually comes you will largely have to run on the energy of the capacity you had built in secret.

You must always bear in mind that you do not prepare for battle on the day of battle and nobody is built for the stage on the stage. Embrace your wilderness experience ! Don’t waste your trials ! Don’t waste your Pain ! And remember to STAY LIMITLESS !!!
