Always be grateful

Image
 Let us learn to thank God always because He gives us strength when we are weak. As we surrender ourselves to the Lord and remember that He is working in everything to accomplish our ultimate good, we can thank Him even when we are pierced by ''thorns''. We lessen the pain of suffering when we learn the lesson of gratitude.  Read 2 Corinthians 12:1-10. Subverting the Resolve of the People Millions of Nigerians are complaining of hunger and poverty which has taken root nationwide. The insecurity in the land has disabled the proactiveness of farmers in different parts of the country, while political office holders have been overwhelmed by their pecuniary and self-centered interests.  State actors insist that about an unspecified number of farmers have benefited from the agricultural subsidy of the government, but the prohibitive cost of food items punctures this claim.

The Teachings of Jesus Christ




Jesus Christ taught about God through stories and parables.

From the teachings of Jesus, we learn all that God requires from us.

The expectation is that, having understood the teachings of Jesus, we will do what is right and proper all the time.

The Local Scene

The leadership choice was founded and established on the foundation of indiscipline, lawlessness, and criminality.

This is the major reason why decision-making from expected quarters has become not only a national embarrassment but also a stain on the reputation of an acclaimed role model in Africa.

The citizenry, a significant number still hope to be literate, have no other option but to replicate the absurd at every level of government presence.

Ordinarily, a faulty education results in impediments in governance, regardless of challenges that persist in the face of identified solutions.

The destructive effects of a faulty education are everywhere for discerning minds to observe.

Indeed, the increasing number of illiterates and the surge in kidnappings are all fallout and true reflections of a faulty education and the choice of leadership.

Ceaseless Prayers

Image
 Let us pray ceaselessly for God to open the eyes of those who have political power and have become committed to unjust economic policies and deep social injustices.  Amos 8:4-14 Hear this, O ye that swallow up the needy, even to make the poor of the land to fail, 5 Saying, When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell corn? and the sabbath, that we may set forth wheat, making the ephah small, and the shekel great, and falsifying the balances by deceit? 6 That we may buy the poor for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes;  yea , and sell the refuse of the wheat? 7 The LORD hath sworn by the excellency of Jacob, Surely I will never forget any of their works. 8 Shall not the land tremble for this, and every one mourn that dwelleth therein? and it shall rise up wholly as a flood; and it shall be cast out and drowned, as  by  the flood of Egypt. 9 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord GOD, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I wi...
