See your Doctor. You have no cause for alarm, but see your Doctor for explanations. Do not bring to social media issues your Doctor can easily explain. First degree AV block is not a physical block, it's merely a harmless conduction delay. Dont panic. Cheers Daphilly: |
Prayer is one of the most powerful privileges given to believers. It is the channel through which we communicate with God, express our needs, offer thanksgiving, and seek guidance. Yet, prayer is not always answered immediately. At times, answers seem delayed, and discouragement may set in. This is why persistence in prayer is essential. The Bible repeatedly teaches that believers must pray continually, faithfully, and without losing heart. One of the clearest teachings on persistence in prayer comes from Gospel of Luke 18:1, which says, “Men ought always to pray and not faint.” Jesus illustrates this principle through the parable of the persistent widow who continually appeals to an unjust judge for justice. Though the judge neither feared God nor respected people, he eventually granted her request because of her constant persistence (Luke 18:1– . Jesus used this example to show that if even an unjust judge responds to persistence, how much more will a loving and righteous God respond to His children who cry out to Him day and night. Her story reminds believers that persistence is closely tied to faith. When we continue praying despite silence or delay, we demonstrate that we trust God’s power and timing.The prophet Elijah also modeled persistent prayer. In First Book of Kings 18:41–45, Elijah prayed for rain after a long drought. He sent his servant seven times to look for a cloud. Six times there was nothing. Yet Elijah did not stop praying. On the seventh time, a small cloud appeared, and soon heavy rain followed. This account teaches that answers may come gradually, and believers must remain steadfast even when there is no immediate sign of change. Persistence in prayer is also emphasized in 1Thessalonians 5:17, which instructs believers to “pray without ceasing.” This may not necessarily mean praying every second of the day, but living in continual dependence on God. Likewise, Apostle Paul encourages believers in Epistle to the Romans 12:12 to be “patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer.” Persistent prayer strengthens faith, builds endurance, and aligns our hearts with God’s will. Persistence does not change God’s character, but it often changes us—shaping our desires, deepening our faith, and preparing us to receive His answers. Therefore persistence in prayer is a vital discipline in the life of every believer. Scripture teaches that God honors steadfast faith. Delays are not denials, and silence is not abandonment. As believers continue to pray with faith and perseverance, they grow spiritually and experience the faithfulness of God. |
Well said. Accurate. The Nigerian Church has contributed more to national development over the last 150 years than any other religion. An unbiased assessment of the impact of mission schools and hospitals is simple evidence. This is a balanced perspective. OnuChuks: |
[b]Ps 77 vs 8 Is his lovingkindness clean gone for ever? Doth his promise fail for evermore? 9 Hath God forgotten to be gracious? Hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? [Selah 10 And I said, This is my infirmity; But I will remember the years of the right hand of the Most High. 11 I will make mention of the deeds of Jehovah; For I will remember thy wonders of old. Thank you very much for being an encouragement to your friend. The Psalmist also felt so at some point.... God bless you abundantly Merry100: |
MartinCorridon:MartinCorridon.... While you tax Churches, remember to tax mosques too. Collections are taken there...and the Imams also feed fat on the sweat of their followers. Both religions take financial collections in one form or the other, not only the Church. |
Get into a fully accredited school. Go for it. It's worth every effort. Also remember Medicine is an Internationally mobile degree. Go for it, but get into an accredited school to prevent future delays and disappointment. I wish you all the best! |
How much is it to buy one? |

Or Bokoboys simply left a few camps for our NA to feel like they got a conquest?.... sad! |
