Don't be distracted

Image
READ GOD'S WORD SERIES 2 We have to be frugal in our spending patterns and also ensure that this does not distract us from God's purpose for us as mortals. Wealth and poverty come with problems attached. However, it is vital to keep our trust in God-and nothing else. Read Ecclesiastes 10-20 The Proclamation Adolf Hitler labelled the extermination of the Jews in Europe, 'the Final Solution'', while the military dictatorship in Argentina which embarked on an unprecedented killing of its citizens code named same ''The Process of National Reorganization''. The activities of bandits, insurgents, herdsmen, ritualists and other brand of criminals in Nigeria which have claimed thousands of lives are similar to the above mentioned. Between 1976 and 1983, millions of citizens lost their lives in Argentina. Death squads operating under secret circumstances and the cover of the state, murdered about 11,000 people, which is now described as ''The Disappe...

Seek God's Mercy, Grace and Wisdom

Image
All ability for service comes only from God. Let us ask God for mercy, grace and wisdom because we need HIS mercy, grace and wisdom in all we do. To overlook HIS mercy, grace and wisdom is to fail to live up to our spiritual potential. Take time aside, each day, to read HIS word and pray. A drop of God's wisdom is greater than an ocean of human intelligence. Read Matthew 7:7-11 READ GOD'S WORD                                          The Score Card of Those-in-Charge Most communities in Oyo state among other states in Nigeria have been overwhelmed by criminals, a significant number of whom are residents. These criminals take time to observe happenings in these communities from shops, beer parlors, hotels, and abandoned buildings in these communities after which they facilitate heinous and grievous crimes. In Molusi, Solanke, Oeygbami, Oshodi, Olorunsogo, Barracks, Aluko, Felele, and ...

Be Justified by HIS Grace

Image
 We are justified by HIS Grace because we believe in Jesus Christ. This also enables us to receive the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit. Let us exhibit the difference that emerges from trusting Jesus Christ as our Savior by submitting to Him this moment.  Read Titus 3:1-8 READ GOD'S WORD The Debatable Corruption Fight  At a point in Nigeria's history, former President, Dr.) Olusegun Obasanjo stated ''it is a matter for regret that most public servants tend to subdue their political discipline in the face of personal aggrandizement''. When Dr.) Obasanjo was in the saddle as President, he set up the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to rein in fraudsters, money launderers, corrupt government officials and several others. Perhaps, the EFCC, was to strengthen the activities of the Nigeria Police Force, while the Independent Corrupt Practices Commission (ICPC) was established to boost the work of the Code of Conduct Bureau.  ...

Wait on the Lord

When danger lurks nearby, we should not let our faith fail because God is always with us. Our God will use HIS words to take very good care of us. Psalm 27 Anarchy in the face of governance Nigerians have expressed visible worries over the activities of criminals operating in commercial motorcycles, vehicles with tinted glasses, vehicles with foreign plate numbers, and vehicles without number plates. They argue that most crimes in different parts of the country are committed through these motorcycles and vehicles and express surprise over the way the criminals beat the scrutiny of law enforcement agents along the road. Innocent citizens who reside in Lagos, Ibadan, Benin City, Port Harcourt, Warri, Onitsha, Aba, Kaduna, Kano, and Abuja, among others, have continued to recount their tales of woe to whoever cared to listen. Sadly, the law enforcement agents, saddled with the responsibility of ensuring law and order and the adherence to the road safety rules and regulations, have for long...

Education in Intensive is Care

Image
The state of primary and secondary school education across the states in Nigeria already in intensive care mode. Sadly, the private schools which ought to provide soothing balm for distraught parents and guardians, have worsened the rot. The convincing recruitment of teachers alone, cannot guarantee quality education, when requisite qualifications, state of mind, experience and skills are lacking. Indeed, learning is impossible in an environment characterized by dilapidated structures and absence of education resources. However, for the director, Career Development Center, University of Ibadan, Prof. Bayo Oluwole, the lack of professional development for teachers, inadequate infrastructure and overcrowded schools in Oyo state are clogs in the wheels of quality education.  Indeed, a visit to a number of schools in the state validates this argument. Really, trade unions have limitations and those in charge take advantage of these. Of worry is the focus of the leadership on road and a...

The Anti-Christ

Image
Time is precious and valuable to waste in the examination of beliefs of religious persuasions to know the extent of credibility. If such persuasions deny the humanity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His perfect life, His atoning death, His bodily resurrection or His personal return, then these persuasions are ''bad eggs'' and ought to be rejected. The truth about Jesus Christ is the test of all religions. What an individual who claims that he has a message from God to deliver, believes about the Lord, will determine if such a message is flawed. Read John 4:1-6                                                           Dispensation to worry about People in a number of states and the federation now watch with dismay and dwindling interests as the '' man-made mansters'' saddled with the responsibilities of governance exhibit the lack of know-how...

The Vine and the Branches

Image
We must realize the fact that to be successful, we need to rely completely on God, the creator of heaven and earth. Regardless of our independent lives which looks so good. It is not in doubt that the Lord wants us to use our talents to serve Him. For every one of us to serve Him effectively, we must rest completely on His spirit for our strength, wisdom and power.  Read John 15:1-8 Thou Shall not Kill In this dispensation, grief-stricken families have continued to mourn their loved ones uncontrollably, whose lives were cut short by the forces of darkness, in different parts of Nigeria. The situation is not abating as a result of the passive attitude by those in charge towards convincingly addressing the menace of violent crimes Surprisingly, the so-called leaders are obsessed with the thoughts of continuity in office, despite the glaring governance lapses as regards the safety of lives and property. Who are those to be held accountable for the unspecified number of human lives th...
