A Point of Duty

Image
Join me in Gumroad /> Let us make it a point of duty to guide people to Jesus Christ. Only through Him can those with broken bodies, broken dreams, broken homes and broken hearts come to wholeness of life. Read Mark 2:1-12 No Positive Impact Life is full of predators, while most communities are at the mercy of the forces of darkness. These criminals move freely because the government at all levels, the law enforcement and security agencies are complicit. Indeed, indiscipline, lawlessness, all forms of crimes, criminality and evil which are the creation of the cronies, protégés, well-wishers, supporters and admirers of political office holders which haves failed to positively impact on the lives of distraught citizens, are the legacies the leadership are about to leave behind.   IS Claims Nigeria Village Attack That Killed Dozens, Christians Among Those At Risk Hundreds Convicted In Nigeria Terror Trial Amid Fresh Attacks (Worthy News In-Depth)

Dividends of Democracy— proposed London News Briefing Wasteful—Federal Workers

Federal workers in Nigeria have described the decision of the federal government to showcase its achievements in the last 24 months in Great Britain during this period when millions of Nigerians are complaining of hunger and poverty as insensitive and embarrassing. The workers made this known through the National Coordinator of the Federal Workersm (FWF), Comrade Andrew Emelieze. ''The ministers appointed by the present political leadership in Nigeria are in the process of rolling out the achievements of those in charge in London, while millions of Nigerians are busy contending with hunger, economic hardships, and poverty. This overseas trip is at what cost to taxpayers? It is wasteful. This is very insensitive, callous, and embarrassing. The wind of greed and covetousness has overwhelmed those in the present administration and has become not only a burden but also a liability to millions of Nigerians. Comrade Emelieze stated. The Local Scene It is surprising that the powers that be can give consent to the recruitment of 130,000 forest guards for the states in Nigeria. This may undermine the genuine efforts by the law enforcement and security structure to curtail violent crimes. Taxpayers' money was expended to train, retrain, and equip the security operatives for purposes that does not include sabotage. This initiative and the proposed security summit by the legislature speak volumes about the frame of mind of those in leadership positions. The sugesstion is that political officeholders are desperate to compensate their well-wishers, admirers, and hangers-on.

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...

The Message

Image
 When Jesus Christ was about to conclude His sermon on the Mount, He told a story about two personalities who built houses, one on a rock and the other on sand. His aim was for His listeners to realize that those who heard His message and went away without putting it to practice were foolish. Jesus Christ expects us to take action on His message. Do we always practice the sermons we have heard? A sermon is not complete until it is put to practice. Read Matthew 7:24-29 Desperation to Cling to Transient Power  Those-in-Charge do not respect the people’s views, rather the leaders impose their self-driven agenda on the people. They take from the poor to enrich themselves. This is not the promise they made. Of great worry, is the naked fact that they are now very desperate to cling to transient power.
