So you are a fellow Nigerian and all you are speaking over this country is them curse words, God is watching you via havens wifi oo. Anyway, I remember the words of a Nigerian during one of the strike actions in one of the Nigerian Hospitals- he said ‘As long as I am concerned, this nation is gone’ Ah! that sounded like he was placing a spell or something. That was of course not his intentions. But then I realised that sometimes we are limited in the things that we allow ourselves to do ‘ for’ the nation if the thoughts we have towards her and the words we speak over her are very much on the negative side. I’m not denying the fact that Nigeria is in a state that’s not encouraging at all but then the least we can do I believe is to do some reshaping by the words we speak. Before I continue, let me share a little poem I penned down some time ago: You are a product of what You hear, see, and do So also, She’s a product of what she Hears, sees and does Nigeria.  ...

Often times God will require us to step down from certain things we engage ourselves in so that we can step up to what he has for us in the present(moment). Saul of Tarsus lived a certain kind of life where he persecuted Christians and one day Jesus had to stop him. It’s interesting that he actually went to get a letter of permission to continue his work against Christians in Damascus. I will tag this one of the minor things he stepped up to. His major goal was to persecuted the Christians. As God would have it, Jesus appeared to him and it’s interesting that he did not just recognize that Jesus was Lord even before Jesus introduced himself but they (Jesus and Saul) also has a conversation. This points to the fact that it doesn’t matter how distant you have been from God, he can speak to you and you can speak back to him. In Act.9:6, Saul asked Jesus ‘…Lord, what wilt thou have me do?’   Saul was ready to sign up for what Jesus would have him do. At some point as he an...

Often times we are busy with one thing or the other and sometimes feel less accomplished(fulfilled).   I (beg to say) that sometimes it’s because there are somethings that we have taken up responsibility for that we really shouldn’t. Somethings that are not exactly as important as what we were really made for. Some of the time we actually know these things that we aren’t meant to be living in at the moment. They are not necessarily ‘bad’ or negative in the real sense but definitely would slow you down from progressing in your course. If you don’t step down from them, they’ll keep you from stepping up to the life you are meant to live. The life that brings fullness and satisfaction. I believe that God desires for us to live full lives, however there are decisions we have to make and stick to in order to experience the fullness of life God has for us. The children of Eli in the bible had several things they were involved with but in the midst of all these they failed in doi...

So,get a place of worship to serve God; God's go...
