The Genealogy of Jesus the Messiah
1 The record of the genealogy of Jesus the Messiah, the son (descendant) of David, the son (descendant) of Abraham:

2 Abraham was the father of Isaac, Isaac the father of Jacob, and Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers [who became the twelve tribes of Israel]. 3 Judah was the father of Perez and Zerah by Tamar, Perez was the father of Hezron, and Hezron the father of Ram. 4 Ram was the father of Aminadab, Aminadab the father of Nahshon, and Nahshon the father of Salmon. 5 Salmon was the father of Boaz by Rahab, Boaz was the father of Obed by Ruth, and Obed the father of Jesse. 6 Jesse was the father of David the king.

David was the father of Solomon by Bathsheba who had been the wife of Uriah. 7 Solomon was the father of Rehoboam, Rehoboam the father of Abijah, and Abijah the father of Asa. 8 Asa was the father of Jehoshaphat, Jehoshaphat the father of Joram, and Joram the father of Uzziah. 9 Uzziah was the father of Jotham, Jotham the father of Ahaz, and Ahaz the father of Hezekiah. 10 Hezekiah was the father of Manasseh, Manasseh the father of Amon, and Amon the father of Josiah. 11 Josiah became the father of Jeconiah [also called Coniah and Jehoiachin] and his brothers, at the time of the deportation (exile) to Babylon.

12 After the deportation to Babylon: Jeconiah became the father of Shealtiel, and Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel. 13 Zerubbabel was the father of Abihud, Abihud the father of Eliakim, and Eliakim the father of Azor. 14 Azor was the father of Zadok, Zadok the father of Achim, and Achim the father of Eliud. 15 Eliud was the father of Eleazar, Eleazar the father of Matthan, and Matthan the father of Jacob. 16 Jacob was the father of Joseph the husband of Mary, by whom Jesus was born, who is called the Messiah (Christ).

17 So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen; from David to the Babylonian deportation (exile), fourteen generations; and from the Babylonian deportation to the Messiah, fourteen generations.

Conception and Birth of Jesus
18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: when His mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child by [the power of] the Holy Spirit. 19 And Joseph her [promised] husband, being a just and righteous man and not wanting to expose her publicly to shame, planned to send her away and divorce her quietly. 20 But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, descendant of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife, for the Child who has been conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. 21 She will give birth to a Son, and you shall name Him Jesus (The Lord is salvation), for He will [l]save His people from their sins.” 22 All this happened in order to fulfill what the Lord had spoken through the prophet [Isaiah]: 23 “Behold, the virgin shall be with child and give birth to a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel”—which, when translated, means, “God with us.” 24 Then Joseph awoke from his sleep and did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him, and he took Mary [to his home] as his wife, 25 but he kept her a virgin until she had given birth to a Son [her firstborn child]; and he named Him Jesus (The Lord is salvation).

Holiness is one(1) of the *eternal nature/attribute* of God just like *free-will* is one(1) of the *earthly nature/attribute* of any human-being while still living in this mortal flesh. Righteousness entails *behaving holy*. When any human being *believes in Jesus Christ* as God and Lord of his/her life, he/she automatically becomes holy(having the Holiness attribute of God) in his whole being(spirit, soul and body), however our *free-will* is found in the soul which still gives any human being especially a believer the *choice of agreeing/believing* that he is already holy completely when *he/she 1st believed in Jesus Christ as God and Lord* or make the choice of agreeing/believing to do whatever his/her fleshly desires/temptations/circumstances is presenting/offering at that particular point in time. Believing in Jesus Christ as God and Lord *once defines our holiness forever* unless we later *reject Jesus Christ(Salvation)* then we loose this *holiness/eternal life forever* not minding the days/years we *previously believed in Jesus Christ*, this later rejection of Jesus Christ is possible(Hebrews 6:4ff, Luke 9:62) however living *by grace found only in Jesus Christ* makes it *impossible to loose salvation* (Hebrews 12:28KJV).
For a believers/Christian soul which still has *free-will* either to continually *behave holy/manifest righteousness* or *disagree with the prompting of grace*, he/she needs to *continually believe* that he/she is holy completely because he/she believes in Jesus Christ finished works on Calvary(by engaging in personal and general bible studies to learn more about the effects of grace and Jesus Christ finished works upon human beings on this earth as it pertains to all aspects of our spirit, soul and body with sound teachers as Jesus Christ instructed believers in John 8:31-32). Continual believing is done by communicating with Christ Jesus inside his/her mind *as a real being* as it concerns every desire/concern/engagements/imagination of your life and telling HIM(Jesus Christ) that *you believe that He has finished/perfected all that concerns your life and you trust HIM to manifest it at HIS own appointed time*(Hebrews 10:10-14, Gal.4:4, John 8:36, John 19:30). This communication is done by Grace(Jesus Christ; John 1:14,16) who *initiates this communication*, continues it, brings it to a fruitful deliberation and conclusion then influences/moves/enables us both to will and manifest his good pleasures(Phil.2:13). It is grace that *enables any human being to believe the gospel whether via direct preaching or voice of grace inside the heart of a man(every human being has this voice active till biological death), it is the same grace that enabled us to 1st believe the gospel for our salvation that also teaches us how to resist sin in this world/generation filled with *sinfulness*, it is the same grace that *teaches us how to resist worldly passions(sexual lust/deviances, greed, depression, unforgiveness, vengeance, depression, mundane-fear, anxieties, worries, loneliness, idolatry, occultism, over-eating/drinking, demonic-influences/attacks), it is the same grace that teaches us how to live holy lives in this earth while we are still alive not when we are dead, it is the same grace that teaches us how to live righteous lifestyle in this generation that seems to *applaud unrighteousness*, it is the same grace that teaches us how to live a self-controlled/loving, peaceful, patient, faithful, kind, generous, humble, joyful, truthful, fruitful, productive, prayerful lifestyle in each situation we find ourselves while we await the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ(Titus 2:11-14). As believers we need to continually remain on the throne of God's grace seeking mercy in order to have grace(that is agree with the working/effective function of grace manifesting inside our individual lives) so that we can continue serving God acceptably with holiness and Godly fear on this earth for the standard of Our God has not *reduced and will never reduce in the future. (Hebrews 4:16, Hebrews 12:28-29KJV, 2 Timothy 2:19, Hebrews 13:8 ). It is as often as we collaborate with *grace* working inside us by *believing we are holy inside Jesus Christ* then the Holy Spirit *continues to manifest righteousness in our soul and mortal bodies* thus "...we *believe* therefore we *can obey*..." (Romans 16:26), "for it is God *at work inside you* enabling you *both to will and manifest his good/righteous pleasures" (Phil.2:13), "He(the Holy Spirit) will also keep you *consistent/firm till the end of your life*, so that *you may be blameless/without-any-sin-unrighteousness* on the *day of our Lord Jesus Christ*. God who said He will *keep you consistent without sin/unrighteousness till the end of your life on this earth or till the day Jesus Christ will come again* is to be *trusted/faithful(trustworthy) by you *every tick of your time on this earth* because He is the being by whom you were *chosen/selected/called* into the fellowship(partakers of salvation/eternal life) of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord" (1 Cor.1:8-9).
Our Mother Mary *believed instantly she became pregnant with Jesus Christ* (John 1:14), "as many as did received him, who *believed in his name*, He gave *right/authority/power instantly* to become Sons/Children of God" (John 1:12). It is *believe* that makes the Holy Spirit to *manifest his righteousness/words/promises instantly* inside our lives/situations or other peoples lifestyle.
It is *grace* that *enables us to believe God's word/abilities/possibilities/miracles/interventions/righteousness* at every tick of our time on this earth.
It is seeking mercy even when we do not have any unrighteousness in our mortal flesh or even when we allowed our flesh to manifest sin/unrighteousness that makes us *connect* to the *effective realities of God's grace functioning inside us consistently.It is God's unconditional love towards mankind that releases this overflow of His mercy and grace inside every individual human being thus "it was while we were still sinners(whether having knowledge of sin released into human realm by Adam & Eve as well as agreeing with it as an individual/non-believer in the gospel or practicing sinful-living currently even though you have believed the gospel) that Christ Jesus died for us in order to prove/show/manifest his love for all human being" (Romans 5:8 )

Abbah Our Father, thank you for your love, mercy and grace as we continue to implore for more of its efficacy in our individual lives and as a body of believers/Christians in every tick of our time on this earth by the unlimited manifestation of your Holy Spirit inside us and on our behalf in Jesus Name. Amen.

The Illusion of the Suspension of Ruga and the Real Deal of Cattle Rearing in Nigeria

Chika J. B. Gabriel Okpalike

In serious discourses, words are not bandied arbitrarily; the legal and socio-political implications of words deployed in a communication are analyzed before those words are crafted. Apart from the other antiques deployed in the document emanating from the presidency for the suspension of Ruga which boarders on denials and escape clauses, more interest in the implications and consequences of ‘Suspension’ is here exercised. In the first paragraph of that document, it is written: “Mr President has directed the immediate suspension of the current unilateral implementation of the Ruga Model Settlement Program by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development as it is not in accordance with the designs approved by: a) the National Economic Council (NEC), b) the National Food Security Council (NFSC) and c) the Federal Executive Council (FEC),”

In the first place, if it was suspended, to suspend it means to postpone its implementation. In other words, the presidency had nothing against the Ruga program, it is not ready to dash it. The presidency is neither understanding nor buying into the popular narrative of the real deal about Ruga which is that it is roundly and squarely the Islamization and Fulanization of Nigeria. If the Ruga Settlement Program is not a done deal, the president could have used the phrase “immediate cessation”. “Immediate cancellation”, “immediate termination” and so forth. In the second place, the Ruga program was not suspended, it is the implementation of the Ruga not in tandem with the approved design that is suspended. In other words, those ones that are in accordance with the approved design is going on in various parts of the country as we speak, even in the states of the south – Ebonyi State is near completion.

The African Arabs known as the Fulani has very long memories; they do not give up on anything they set their minds on. The Islamic religion does not encourage free reasoning and dialogue. These two principal characters are what Nigeria is actually battling with. The politics of the world has been polarized by two civilizations, one bought into the Jewish (Isaac) narrative and the other bought into Arab (Ishmaelite) narrative. These two sons of Abraham are in a perpetual warfare that only the extinction of one may abate. The Jews expanded their frontiers with Christianity which bought their narrative wholesale. Europeanized Christianity aided this expansion into Asia and Africa. This war has been raging since Mohammed struck the cord of Arabian sensibilities. They, like the Christians, but in their turn through violence, population and politics have also expanded the frontiers of their civilization to Europe, Africa, Australia and Asia. In this age, they are well positioned to conquer the world. What we see in Nigeria, is the West African version of the same things going on in the Middle East, parts of Western and Eastern Europe. Nigerians should not go to sleep in the respite that they have succeeded to cow the presidency. They have just smartly removed the discussion from the public domain while the implementation is going on.

The other side of the complication is: Why are our politicians, especially from the Southeast extraction, not speaking up on this matter? It is the Igbo entrepreneurial spirit which is playing against the Igbo this time. We need a total turnaround on the way we think. Many Igbo politicians discovered rearing cow as both alternative to the Nigerian oil and a means of accessing the Nigerian political power which is clearly vested in the hands of the Fulani. We know that the real owners of these cows are somewhere in the comfort of their houses and are working through chains of agents. The herders in the field are merely farm workers who are trained enough to take instructions from their immediate bosses. The real owners of the cows are given account of his or her property managed by field experts whose duty it is to employ and manage the herders. These managers simply need money to begin their own chain, they are fine doing the agent’s job all their lives and given the feudalist mentality, they do not bargain for more. Many of our Igbo brothers, including former governors, governors, ministers, senators, house of Rep members and their aides are in the business of cattle rearing, providing funds to empowers these agents. Another way of saying that those we are hoping to speak for us are the real owners of the cows. Being in the business, they know that most of the herders are employed from outside Nigeria, but what does the Igbo care when the center of morality has been shattered? Therefore before Boko Haram Insurgence our kits and kin were already in the business of cattle rearing and well knew that their employees were illegal immigrants from Sudan, Chad and Mali. Many of them are into politics through their Fulani allies and sponsors. Through our own brothers these people are armed. The elites among the Fulani through whom these our brothers access power in turn hold our brothers in blackmail; give them more business and more power. When the sponsors of Boko Haram armed the Almajiris to disrupt Jonathan’s move to redefine and restructure Nigeria, they did not know that with the gun, the possibility of controlling them has been compromised. So also the lure of protecting their property has inadvertently empowered the herders through our own brothers who have also lost control of them. The Fulani elites are now using them as militia for their long term goals and our brothers are caught in between.

The Fulani never forgot that their ancestor, Usman Dan Fodio, had set his mind on the conquest of the vast valleys of the Middle Belt extending to the Atlantic Ocean when he met with the British forces already doing business and protecting the south. They never forgot that Nigeria is a negotiated territory between the British and Usman Dan Fodio’s established Sokoto Caliphate. In so many ways they never forgot that the independence of Nigeria heralded their moment of finishing up the program of Usman Dan Fodio. The most benign Fulani knows this, including Shehu Shagari and Musa Yar’Adua. What we are witnessing is the difference in the style of Muhammadu Buhari; the purpose and intent of Fulani government in Nigeria has always been the same. We have had the likes of Buhari in Ahmadu Bello and Murtala Mohammed, while Tafawa Balewa, Shehu Shagari and Yar’Adua are of a class, but all pursued one agenda. I know that an Igbo freethinker might doubt this. Note well: They do not forget.

The only obstacle on the way of the Fulani is Ndiigbo personified in the man called Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu. His interpretation of the Nigerian history and projections of the Nigerian destiny overwhelmed the caliphate and dazzled he monarchy of Britain. Ojukwu’s move is a historical breach of contract and they fought it with any kind of ammunition the world could afford or invent at that time, caring nothing even about women and children. Today the Fulani see the Igbo as believers in Ojukwu’s creed. Regrettably, very many of us have reneged on that creed and our enemies know the easiest way of penetrating our entrails. The amorphous formation of the Igbo population at home and in diaspora is also a huge hindrance but the attachment of the Igbo to their homeland is a clue as to how to hurt them the most. In doing business with us, they are still doing the war while we are poised to make the money.

In our business with them we, unlike them forgot. We forgot that our homeland is the reason of our being. We forgot that those who aid our business are our sworn-enemies. We forgot that our heroes shed their blood to protect this land and our children died in the struggle. We forgot that as long as we are in Nigeria, the way it is constituted, we remain their slaves. We forgot that we have never been slaves to anyone and that we always went back in every attempt made to enslave us.

Because we forgot, our politicians meddle with them, doing business and making money in their minds, while they, within the same bargain gun for territorial expansion and domination. Our politicians get garbed in their robe for the lure of connection and increased capital; they initiate them as weak links to the coveted south. Our politicians robe them with our prestigious garments and caps adorning them with our hard-earned titles because they think that word is bond, but they take these on knowing that they are their armour and shield from Ojukwu-bucket, all because we forgot.

Usman Dan Fodio failed to conquer our ancestors with the swift horse, but his descendants are conquering us with the mulish cow. Very shameful for the descendants of the elephants (Enyimba). We are dealing with a complex situation and need to make a difference between the business of rearing cows and the battle for the occupation of a land and the domination of a people. For the Fulani one is the means and the other is the end; for us we lost sight of one or forgot, thinking the other as the end. Many have advocated for the Igbo going into cattle business without knowing they are already doing it wrongly and with the wrong guys. Some advocated for jettisoning beef, the possibility of which is there to be seen in the present arrangement. Mine is: press the reset button of your mind and souls, O Igbo compatriots, that thy attitude towards these imminent threats to our lives may change, not just about Ruga, but about anything Nigeria. Even in your Ụmụnna politics shun everything that give them access including APC or the ordinary chant of its faithfuls.

For over 10days, the news of Cows and Fulani has been all over the net.

I have not heard any Islamic person, come out to condemn the derogatory comments from the RUGA leader...
Tomorrow, you will preach to me that Islam religion is for peace.

I'm still waiting for Mr President to call for the arrest of that man and declare that group a terrorist group, same way he did to IPOB who moved about without even catapult or plank.

War or violence has never been the solution to peace, statements used by the RUGA LEADER is enough to incite violence which has started gradually in the minds of the people.

This is the time to act fast Mr.President.
No part of this nation will or can condone violence or butchering of her people anymore.

RUGA CANNOT STAND IN THIS 21ST CENTURY. ADDRESS THE PROBLEM OF THIS NATION AS THE COMMANDER IN CHIEF OF THE FEDERATION.

Nigeria is bigger than any single individual.
The history of the Fulani herdsmen, (a.k.a terror group) in recent times has been too violent for any community or group of persons to agree for a cohabitation.

You can't see fire and put your hands into it.
They naturally do not value their lives and they want to take the lives of those who has PLANS and run to fulfil their plans peacefully.

Let all the ELDERS OF THE NORTH, summon their rich son's and daughters who occupy virtually all the positions of power in the economy to pull together funds and build a standard static ranching system without roaming about people's backyards and farmlands and cutting off heads of farmers and raping their wives.

Stop disturbing us with this talk about RUGA.
Let the energy this government is putting in RUGA be put into POWER-ELECTRICITY,
ROAD SYSTEM, RIGHT ECONOMIC POLICIES that will cause a dynamic change and economic transformation in our nation.

Finally, I repeat, the RUGA LEADER must be arrested and equal justice be meted out same way it was done on IPOB Leader and group

The Visit of the Magi
1 Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king (Herod the Great), magi (wise men) from the east came to Jerusalem, asking, 2 “Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the east and have come to worship Him.” 3 When Herod the king heard this, he was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him. 4 So he called together all the chief priests and scribes of the people and [anxiously] asked them where the Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed) was to be born. 5 They replied to him, “In Bethlehem of Judea, for this is what has been written by the prophet [Micah]:
6
‘And you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah,
are not in any way least among the leaders of Judah;
For from you shall come a Ruler
Who will shepherd My people Israel.’”
7 Then Herod secretly sent for the magi and learned from them the [exact] time the star [had first] appeared. 8 Then he sent them to Bethlehem, saying, “Go and search carefully for the Child; and when you have found Him, report to me, so that I too may come and worship Him.” 9 After hearing the king, they went their way; and behold, the star, which they had seen in the east, went on before them [continually leading the way] until it came and stood over the place where the young Child was. 10 When they saw the star, they rejoiced exceedingly with great joy. 11 And after entering the house, they saw the Child with Mary His mother; and they fell down and worshiped Him. Then, after opening their treasure chests, they presented to Him gifts [fit for a king, gifts] of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. 12 And having been warned [by God] in a dream not to go back to Herod, the magi left for their own country by another way.
The Flight to Egypt
13 Now when they had gone, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, “Get up! Take the Child and His mother and flee to Egypt, and remain there until I tell you; for Herod intends to search for the Child in order to destroy Him.”
14 So Joseph got up and took the Child and His mother while it was still night, and left for Egypt. 15 He remained there until the death of Herod. This was to fulfill what the Lord had spoken by the prophet [Hosea]: “Out of Egypt I called My Son.”
Herod Slaughters the Babies
16 Then Herod, when he realized that he had been tricked by the magi, was extremely angry, and he sent [soldiers] and put to death all the male children in Bethlehem and in all that area who were two years old and under, according to the date which he had learned from the magi. 17 Then what had been spoken through Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled:
18
“A voice was heard in Ramah,
Weeping and great mourning,
Rachel weeping for her children;
She refused to be comforted,
Because they were no more.”
19 But when Herod died, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, and said, 20 “Get up! Take the Child and His mother, and go to the land of Israel; for those who sought the Child’s life are dead.” 21 Then Joseph got up, and took the Child and His mother, and came into the land of Israel. 22 But when he heard that Archelaus was ruling over Judea in place of his father Herod [the Great], he was afraid to go there. Then being warned by God in a dream, he left for the region of Galilee, 23 and went and settled in a city called Nazareth. This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophets: “He shall be called a Nazarene.”

"Now do not be distressed or angry with yourselves because you sold me here, *for God sent me ahead of you* to *save life and preserve our family(human race)*"
(Genesis 45:5 amp)

No matter what is *currently facing you as trials, emotional pains, trauma, shock, sickness, disease, financial-lack, unemployment, betrayals, blackmail, threats, intimidations, marital -challenges, depression, sinful-living, addictions, temptations e.t.c*
tell yourself inside your mind/heart and with your mouth *consistently* thus
"I believe that Jesus Christ is working my present situation for HIS GLORIOUS MANIFESTATIONS at His own time and method. Amen."

Mmadu juo gi
Kedu k'imere ma odimma ma odinjo
Zaa ya si ;
"Jesus Christ na-adirim ndu"

if any person(including your mind/conscience) asks you;
how are you
answer;
I am blossoming inside the grace of Jesus Christ
or
I am blessed by Jesus Christ.

"We *believe and we speak* therefore with the same eye of faith I *believe therefore have I spoken* (2 Cor.4:13)

How do you know that you believe ?
by *speaking to Jesus Christ inside your heart/mind/brain every tick of time that is passing on this earth*
and
by *speaking about the benefits of Jesus Christ finished works on Calvary to yourself and every human being that comes into contact with you* on daily bases in your compound, families, siblings, streets, schools, office-complex, cafeteria, cars, taxi, keke-Maria, molue, Danfo-bus, market, business-meetings, health-centers, prison, hospitals, hostels, rendezvous, fellowship/Church e.t.c

How long are we going to be *believing and speaking*?
Until Jesus Christ comes again in glory or calls us home to biological-death having preached the gospel to the whole human creation
(Matthew 24:14)

Thank You Jesus Christ; My Confidence!!!

Battling with sexual-thoughts:
if you are a virgin or not,
immoral thoughts will still be coming into ur mind but if you choose to be thinking and desiring to commit sexual sin in your mind or you are enjoying the sexual-thoughts then you have already committed the sin (Matt.5:27-28)
however do not condemn yourself or allow your conscience condemn you above God's love(Romans 5:8, 1 John 3:20)

what you need to be doing is fill your mind with the Holy Spirit and you will not desire/dwell in those immoral thoughts when they come to your mind(Galatians 5:16)
The way to get filled with the Holy is by calling the name of Jesus Christ, Holy Spirit and Abbah Father in your mind/heart/brain and mouth *regularly* and telling Him to use His mercy and grace to help you take care of your present situations of life, satisfy all your desires and reveal Himself more to you.
The word of God contained in the holy bible fills us with the Holy Spirit whenever we study it to *learn more about Jesus Christ as our God and Lord* (John 8:31-32)
everyday you can study and meditate upon 1-verse or 1-chapter and ask the Holy Spirit to give you grace of understanding, believe and manifestation of His word(John 17:17)

you can start with John chapter-1 today, pray with it then next day study John chapter-2, the next day chapter 3 and so...on while seeking to know Jesus Christ *more and more*

one of the prayer I make about sexual-purity whether I remember my sex-urge or someone else's message, dressing, video, music, conversations e.t.c arouses such mindset(sexual-curiosity) is;
Thank You Jesus Christ because you have *already filled me with your sexual-urge satisfaction*. Amen.
or
Holy Spirit fill me with your sexual-urge satisfaction in Jesus Name. Amen.
or
Father fill me and this person with sexual-urge satisfaction in Jesus Name. Amen.
or
Father release your mercy and grace to satisfy our sexual-urge in Jesus Name. Amen.
or
I will keep *decreeing* the name of Jesus repeatedly until such thoughts goes away from my mind
or
I will keep *reciting Hail Mary, full of grace...* as often as possible until such thoughts goes away from my mind.

By His mercy and grace, Jesus Christ has kept me without sexual intimacy, romancing, kissing or caressing any woman/man or any sexual-deviances for the past 22 years from the age of 11 whether in public or in private while btw the ages of 7-11; I was involved in pornography and fornication. Jesus Christ delivered me by His mercy and grace, He is still sustaining me and will keep upholding me till eternity (Hebrews 13:8 "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever" )

if you *believe in Jesus Christ*, you will experience/see His Glory *over* sin, emotions, wealth, demonic manipulations, human souls(evangelization) as Jesus declared in John 11:40 even much more than it happened in my life.

Just declare...
Jesus Christ I believe in You as my God and Lord!!!
His Holy Spirit will *take-over His whole transformation inside and around your life*

Great Grace Brethren!!!

I once had to do ministry in a place for just about four months.
Sincerely, I didn't want to go.
My son was just about nine months old, and the journey was about seven hours by road and the road was terrible.
I already had about three meetings I had planned to attend in the south west during those months that I'd have to cancel should I undertake that journey.
It would cost me a lot of money that I could divert into something else.
And just four months? I wouldn't be able to do much. So what's the essence?
Well, I was convinced I was supposed to go even though I didn't know why. I went there nonetheless.
And O'boy, had I not gone, I would have struggled with the regret for the rest of my life.
Apparently, God wanted me there for just ONE PERSON, who had been a pastor there. The Lord had told him that He was sending a pastor to him and that I won't stay long there. I did meet him. A very sincere and loving Man of God, but who needed brushing up.
How glad I am that I obeyed!
I did what I had to do there, and when my time I was up, I moved with my family to our next place of assignment.
It wasn't for nothing.
I am awed at the lengths God would go to orchestrate things just because of one man. There are times when we are that "one man", and there are times when we are the ones God will have to inconvenience to reach out to that "one man". Whatever category we fall into, we must make the most of the situation.
If you are in the former, learn to maximize the supernatural relationships placed in your life, because they may not always be as around and available as they are today. Make the most of it and receive the supply of the Spirit placed in them by God for you. Don't dull. God doesn't put people in our lives accidentally. It's purposeful and intentional, and it's for our benefit. We must recognise and maximize such relationships.
And if you are in the latter, never ever let comfort get in the way of God's instructions to you. I often say to our folks, if God trusts a man, He will often discomfort him. I believe that to be true. There are times when God will interrupt our plans and inconvenience us to get a job done. No matter what it costs, we must get that job done. Never despise God's "one man". Don't trivialise it. Don't handle it with levity. One man can take a city!
Always remember that we aren't here to be comfortable and revel in luxury, we are here to do His work and to get it done at any cost. We must give it all it takes. You may have few men you are discipling in one corner, but treat the assignment with honor and reverence. One of those men may be very instrumental in God's work in the next generation.
God uses men for men.
Either we are in the first category of men or the second or even both, we must do what we ought with all we've got.
It's a blessed day.

*GSA DAILY DEVOTIONAL*
*DATE: Monday, July 15, 2019*
*TOPIC : Walking in the Newness of Life*
*TEXT : Romans 6 : 4*
*Therefore we are buried with Him by baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.*

To walk in the newness of life as a child of God is to have dominion over sin, self and satan.
As Christ Jesus died and resurrected so also we as Christians are expected to die to sin and rise to a new life in Christ Jesus.

To have dominion over sin is to be dead to sin and the works of the flesh. It's to yield every member of our body to be an instrument of righteousness unto God.

How do we then have dominion over sin, self and satan in this adulterated world?
The grace of God through our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ and our strong determination are very essential in having total domain over the triple s.

Brethren, the flesh will keep on coming at us to dominate, but with the grace of God and strong determination total dominion is certain.

I pray that God shall help us to have total and perfect dominion over sin, self and satan in Jesus mighty name, amen.

Reflection : Romans 6 : 12
*Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.*

Do have a glorious week.
