Wisdom Diary on Thanksgiving

Introduction

Wisdom Diary is a collection of powerful, faith-building, success-motivating and

life-transforming quotes from Dr. David O. Oyedepo.

These quotes, as you meditate on them (along with the corresponding scriptures),
will fortify and encourage you to rise up to a more meaningful and productive
Christian life.

They are words you will never forget! They are words you go to bed with, and
you wake up full of electric ideas that will make a shining star out of you.

They are words brewed in a hot pot of a heart full of insights and revelations,
with spiritual understanding that has been proved in 27 years of adventurous
Christian living, and 15 years of committed ministry.

They are not words of an academic mind, No! They are words of a mind that is
breathing with the intensity of the life of God, contacted through a diligent study
life.
