Hello There! Welcome to Nemerulez' Blog

The success of whatever you want to achieve in life must come first from the inside of you. Once your victory is confirmed from within, it becomes apparent to all. Life's situation can be very overwhelming, but if you choose to see your victory in that tough situation, it won't be long before you start seeing physical results. Refuse to worry. Refuse to allow the situation drown you. Conquer! 

I was deceived many years ago by this belief, that when  you are seeking for a life partner, he or she should be the opposite of you, in that if the man is hot, the woman should be cold, or if the man is very outgoing, the woman should be meek and homely and vice versa.  This is a lie that people of low minds made us to believe. It was then in my cause of finding the truth, the real deal about marriage that the HOLY SPIRIT told me that, if I want to enjoy the rest of my life with my spouse, we both MUST be alike and have a lot of things in common. For example, am a strong believer of JESUS, and I grew up knowing what respect and good decorum is all about; it would be a disaster to settle with a man completely opposite of me- he does not believe strongly in JESUS and he was not well brought up; what kind of marriage will this opposite bring? The answer Is total disaster. I must tell you!  Do not be deceived by those lies we were told by people who want to get away wi...

"If you can see it, and you have the courage to speak it, it will happen".  There is no better way to get inspired than to see someone you know practically turn his/her dreams into reality using the power of imagination and spoken words. You need to know that there is power in spoken words.  When you have a thought that matches with what you want for your life, do not keep it to yourself; speak it! Speak it as though they are happening for real. Stop bottling your thoughts. Someone said that a closed mouth is a closed destiny. It is only a matter of time, then your dreams will become a reality; only if you speak it and don't waver!

Follow your dreams!

GOD does not need your help to help you. All you need to do is to admit that you need HIS help! 

Have you ever wondered why the same thing that you were happy and excited about, that seemed like an answered prayer, turned out to be "uninteresting" or "bad"? For example, the initial butterflies you both felt at the beginning of your relationship, and why all the sweet, rosy, lovey dovey suddenly became a tug of war?  I made a research, and  I got the following answers; It is because you stopped paying close attention to details to whatever you were committed to; be it your relationship, a new project etc. It is because you allowed your focus to slip from the wonderful plans you had when you made up your mind to commit to the task. It is because you forgot the very essence why you decided to commit to the task.  It is because you stopped believing in your good course.  It is because you stopped loving and trusting.  And to remedy the situation or not even be in such a situation at all, here is what I learnt you should do: Alw...

Stanbic IBTC presented a lasting gift, Educational trust fund to Olajumoke's children. Presentation was held yesterday at the Stanbic IBTC headquarters, Walter Carrington, Victoria Island, Lagos, Nigeria. The people that were present at the presentation were Ame Okwudi, Event and CSI Manager, TY Bello, Popular Nigerian Photographer/Musician,  Binta Max-Gbinijie, Chief Executive, Stanbic IBTC Trustees, Olajumoke/ her husband, Sunday Orisaguna and Angela Omodare, legal adviser.  Congratulations Olajumoke. May GOD continue to shine HIS light on you and your family. See pictures below:

When someone says something like, " manage  your expectations", what the person means is that you should lower your expectations. Has someone told you that before? Yes, I heard that a lot years ago when I was still single. I heard things like, "girl your expectations are too high, you need to lower them because the world does not revolve around you." Someone actually said that to me. Lol. But you know what? I refused to allow her to talk me down or change me or influence me to lower my expectations or affect me negatively. But did I get what I was expecting eventually? You bet I did; even when odds were against me! So you see, the best way to manage your expectations is to raise them; as long as you have the right motives.  Learn to believe in what you want and hold on to it, even in the face of opposition- false evidence appearing real!  No matter what others may say, learn to expect better. Learn to expect love.Learn to expect to live and enjoy the good ...

On receiving the "Album of the year" award, Taylor Swift made an acceptance speech that amazed the world. Read the excerpt: "I want to say to all the young women out there- there are going to be people along the way who are going to try to undercut your success or take credit for your accomplishments or fame".  Read more,  "If you just focus on the work, and you don't let people sidetrack you, someday, when you get where you're going, you'll look around and you'll know that it was you and the people who love you that put you there, and that will be the greatest feeling in the world." Contrary to what the world was expecting, following her arguments with Kanye West last week where he claims in his new song, Famous, "I made that bitch famous"; they thought that would be the golden opportunity for her to throw shades at Kanye West and tell the world "her own side of the story" or whatever, but instead,...

Can we talk, ladies? The same tall, slim, six packs guy you are killing yourself over for, today, may eventually not be your "spec" many years after.  What do you really call "my spec"? The physical looks? Truth be told, looks have made so many people make the worst mistakes of their lives. From experience, I will tell you that looks are very deceptive; things are not always as they seem. That is why you should pray about choosing the right person. Go for quality, not quantity! Those six packs will disappear. Trust me. I guess he is working out now, going to the gym every second to keep the charming physique; that is why you are tripping and playing second fiddle? Receiving all the insults? Watching him play around with other women, while you play the "good girl" who turns a blind eye to all the nonchalant and uncaring attitudes, misbehaviours, so that he can marry you because all your mates are getting married?  Ladies come on??? You need to...

Do not be afraid to ask questions! If you do not ask questions, how would you get answers? 

WHEN GOD remembers you, HE makes a public show of it, to the glory of HIS name. Go Olajumoke....I am very happy for you. Keep soaring, ain't nothing stopping you! 

She's so camera friendly. You all will agree with me that she was destined to be a model. Poverty is a curse! For anyone who has a dream, GOD will make it happen for you. If you believe, type Amen! Makeup/Photo Credit: Christine Signatures

Payporte officially signs Olajumoke as the face of their 2016 campaign. I learnt that this contract is long term. Congratulations Olajumoke! May GOD see you through this path. I am overjoyed! GOD is GOD; not a man! See picture after cut:

Whenever there is a deep, heartfelt passion, you do not have to look far to find somebody who will try to kill it. Even well-intentioned people within your church can be quick to tell you why you should not move in a direction that fits your passion.  Many prefer the comfort of isolated and non-threatening environments to the challenging opportunities of stepping into an arena where, though it may be uncomfortable, you could make a significant difference.  What you are doing might not look satisfying to people, but as long as it is your passion and you believe in your course, remain in the line of your purpose; and do not lose focus!  Most times, greatness is usually overlooked, because of its insignificance at that time (small beginning)! Also, be careful who you share your plans with; because your plans might look impossible to the person and all you will get  is a trailer loads of discouragement instead of that one push that you need! The economy in ...

To someone out there who is praying and trusting GOD for a breakthrough, watch this video. When GOD says it's your time, HE makes everything, I mean everything to work in your favour! Hold on to GOD and be inspired.  http://edition.cnn.com/2016/02/12/africa/jumoke-model-ty-bello-feat/index.html?sr=cnnitw

I could not have forgotten to send you all my love today. Been unwell all day. Still had to make out time to tell you I care. Hope you know that love is a second, minute, hour, and an everyday day thing. Let's express it because GOD commands us to. You all are amazing! Happy Valentines Day......... 

The story of Olajumoke is likened to the sculpture where the psalmist said, that GOD brought him from the miry clay and set his feet upon the rock!  You can call her story luck or opportunity or preparation, whatever, but I will still continue to see someone who was helpless, but suddenly received a divine help from GOD. Trust me, there are a lot of people who are more prepared than Olajumoke, more skilled, more qualified, yet they are no where. So if you sit there and attribute this story as opportunity meeting with preparation, then you do not know what GOD is capable of doing.  Have you not heard that GOD uses the foolish things of this world to confound the wise? Or have you not heard that GOD does not need you to be qualified before HE uses you to make a name for HIMSELF? Well, enough said already.  Let me thrill you will some pictures of Olajumoke being given a family luxury apartment by Sujimoto,  and also certificate of scholarship to further an...

Where there is no vision or clarity of purpose, there will be total confusion. Do not ignorantly go with the flow, just to see what happens. Do not live your life like that. You are special.  Whatever you set out to do, clearly give it a definition. A lot of us were victims of not defining what we really wanted in the past. We allowed others to define for us, and you know what? The outcome isn't ever a sweet one when you allow someone else to define your purpose, trust me.  You are the one looking for something and you know exactly what you want. So, if what is in front of you isn't what you want or does not match the "name" of what you are looking for, do not accept anything less! As long as you know what you want, you will never get confused, no matter how well an offer is packaged!  It is a very wonderful thing, when you are living the life you'd desired to live, just because you knew what you wanted and you went all the way to achieve it- with the ...

A very short piece, but fully loaded. Read below: When you put GOD first, you live by HIS scripturally prescribed standards for you. You do not compare your marriage to others or permit external unscriptural forces to influence and control your relationship. Your marriage is regulated by scriptural values and principles. When you put GOD first, you will enjoy HIS peace and comfort all your life's journey.

Never compare your children with others. No child is the same, even the ones from the same womb. Never panic  when your child is unwell. A mothers approach especially towards the affairs of her children, play a big role in the way a child responds to a situation, which would affect the child's life, positively or negatively. If your child(ren) always sees you cry at every given unwelcoming situation, it will affect their emotion as they grow. You will/ might end up raising moody and unhappy children. Never ignore your instinct; it is very powerful. Never always be too forward to assist your child in some "do it yourself" activities, even if they give you the "i can't do it" expression. Always encourage your child to learn to do some basic things herself, like feeding herself, tieing her shoe lace, carrying her school bag, setting her table for breakfast or lunch or dinner, reading her story books, doing her homework etc. This will help your chi...

One of the great people I know said that, the greater the difference in the energy level that exists between two people, the lesser the chances that they will enjoy a healthy and compatible relationship together; and they will have so much to complain about unless they are ready to go all the way to make sacrifices, which is what marriage is all about anyway. As much as a lot of people, including me were not even aware of this fact while considering choosing a life partner, this saying happens to be true, though a few of us got lucky. That is why they say that knowledge is power and if you are single, ensure you consider this factor very well before choosing a life partner. For example, if you are the party hard, fun and out going type, choose a partner who loves as much fun, but must not necessarily have exact same energy, because no two people has the same energy level. As humans, we all tend to operate on certain energy levels. This energy level will influence and determine...

Jumoke, accidentally walking into her destiny in the line of duty - hawking her Agege bread on the street of Lagos, Nigeria.  Olajumoke, the Agege bread seller who came to light "accidentally" when TY Bello, one of Nigeria's ingenious photographers captured her unknowingly as she passed by with her loads of bread on her head, during a photo session with Tinie Tempah, an American Artist. Her news is all over the media and people are excited and happy for her. This is a story of "From grass to grace." Olajumoke, is a 27 years old mother of two, who came to Lagos with her little girl for greener pastures, while her husband stayed back with their 4 year old child. A lot of people have attributed her story to luck, but you see, I call it "remembrance". GOD remembered her good work!  All along, this young woman had struggled to sell her Agege bread,  and could only make gain of  300-500 naira per day, no one noticed her efforts- most people m...

Most times, I feel excited and excellently smart, while sometimes I feel like I am just there whiling away time. And this is how basically everyone sees it. As long as you are not out there making some cash yet, you are a loser. You know what am talking about?  Okay, If you find yourself in such situation and you have no one to share your thoughts with or even understand what you are going through at the moment, look at yourself in the mirror and tell yourself, "everything is going to be fine." You are not alone in this; a lot of people go through some stuff sometimes you know. Encourage yourself, and remind yourself those times you'd "pull down mountains" with your bare hands.  Hey, those things we call mistakes most times actually are blessings in disguise, do you agree? Yes, tell yourself that. Everything is going to be fine. Do the best you can with what you have. You are not everybody; you are you. If writing gives you joy, go ahead and continue t...

Someone once said that, being filthy rich will not automatically make anyone happy, but the process of acquiring it will bring more happiness than the wealth itself. I agree.  To me, the main purpose of acquiring wealth in the first place, is to provide value to others. If you are living your life's purpose, if your heart is in the right place, money will never have anything to do with your levels of happiness. Too many rich people out there, yet they are very lonely, they are not happy in spite of their riches. They indulge in so many negative activities in search of happiness. But no, the truth is you can never find happiness in those places. You can only find happiness when you look within yourself to discover your true purpose aside from the riches. Only then can the two, riches and happiness synchronise.  The point is, no amount of money will really make you happy. It is about finding your purpose. Yet, In addition, NEVER is poverty a thing to consider- it does ...

Sometimes, misunderstanding arises even in the very best of relationships. Oh yes, it does.  Someone once said that, if there are no misunderstanding in your relationship, you should get suspicious that something is very wrong. When you are learning each other, there is every tendency that arguments would occur, may be as a result if experiences, personalities or even background differences. But whichever it is, the willingness to admit, face and discuss issues that cause misunderstandings, which lead to emotional stress in your relationship is a vital key to a successful relationship.  A lot of couples hide their feelings and emotions because they want to avoid misunderstanding or quarell with their partners. They harbour all kinds of emotional hurt and pretend that everything is okay. With every passing time, these little unexpressed negative emotions become deep rooted problems, which eventually lead to an implosion (violent outburst from the inside)- that is ...

Money plays quite a significant role in life and relationships, but successful relationships are not built primarily on money. When money is available, needs are met with ease, it will also help you to pursue and fulfil your dreams with ease. Money is a big advantage to your abilities, skills and expertise. With money in your hands, you are able to fully express and utilise GOD'S gifts and talents. Money gives you access to places, people and sometimes projects that guarantee your future. Without money, some doors may be closed on you and your dream may just keep struggling to find expression. You may be confined to a particular place or social class because of lack of financial freedom.  However, having said all these about money, I will like to say that money in itself does not determine the success or failure of a relationship. If all the EXTREMELY IMPORTANT factors are not in place in your relationship, but you have lots of money to meet your material and physical need...

Happy New Month Friends!!!! I am grateful to GOD for HIS faithfulness thus far. I  am so excited about this February , honestly. I hope you are too. Hope is powerful, never lose it! So here is something inspiring I will love to share with you, and I hope you get inspired by it, even as we welcome the new month of February. Oh it's leap year, you know that? And we are having 29 days in this month. So you have all the days to achieve greatness. Let's do this! The things I have learnt over the years and I am still learning; Let your past go- mistakes, regrets, things you could have done right but you did not, and so on. The truth is, your past can never affect your future unless you let it. Whatever happened in your past that seemed unpleasant, could be a blessing in disguise. You learnt better. But you cannot learn better if you are still holding on to your past. So let it go! You can never please everybody, so stop trying too hard. No matter how good, caring, ...
