A luta continua (in English: the struggle continues), was the rallying cry during Mozambiques's war for independence, by the FRELIMO movement leader, Samora Machel, who later became the first president of an independent Mozambique in 1975. The phrase, which has been very dominant in Nigeria also from year to year has now become an house hold word, especially amongst youths and I used to be in the clique of those who also believes "the struggle continues" until I found my way out and my I chose not to be a struggler nor hustler. However, my struggles did not end just at the point of going out of the shores of Nigeria to experience a different culture beyond the continent of Africa, my struggles ended prior to the time, and I am willing to share with you how I ended mine and I believe if you apply these two principles, your struggles are definitely soon to end this new year.
Firstly; Trust the Lord completely and don't ever trust yourself. Take note of the word completely; not half way nor with an iota of doubt but completely. If you want favor with both God and man, wherever you go this year, and a good reputation for good sense of judgment in all you do all through the year, then, this is the way to go.
Secondly, in everything you do, put God first. The key word I want you to note in this second principle is the word "everything". Don't God first only in the difficult things; don't put Him first only in the hard moments; don't put in first only in time of recession, but in everything. Even in those things that seems too easy to solve or handled, you have to put Him first. By doing this, He also would direct you and crown EVERYTHING with success.
It's a new year, be careful what you profess; words either kill you or make you alive.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
