Racoon:
So you know this yet as a minister you couldn't counsel the president against borrowing from them & the forceful invitation of Chinese doctors to Nigeria?

do they know anything? Both president and all his subjects, including the so called APC leaders too. Bunch of thieves.

He thinks because he is the governor he can't be sued?

Demolishing Strongholds

‘The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds.’ 2 Corinthians 10:4 NIV

God called David ‘a man after My own heart.’ (Acts 13:22 NKJV) But David struggled with a weakness in his life. What was it? A lustful spirit that surfaced from time to time, and the people closest to him knew about it. When he grew old and his body cold, they brought a young girl to lie beside him in bed so he could ‘get warm.’ (1 Kings 1:1 NKJV) They figured if that didn’t get David’s circulation moving he had to be dying!

That’s a sad indictment. But there’s something even sadder going on here. David had passed on his weakness to his son Amnon, who’d ended up raping his sister. And although David was angry about it, he didn’t confront or punish him. After all, what could he say? Like father, like son?

Lust isn’t just a whim or a passing fancy, it’s a sin. And when it passes from one generation to the next it becomes a ‘stronghold’. Today psychologists refer to it as ‘a genetic predisposition’. Maybe somewhere in your family tree there’s a workaholic father, a mother who was emotionally unavailable, or a brother or sister who drank too much, and now you’re wrestling with the same issues. Don’t be discouraged! Paul says, ‘The weapons we fight with… have divine power to demolish strongholds.’

So before you run off to a divorce court or a rehab centre, name your stronghold, then pray, believing God to break its stranglehold on your life. Do it before it infects the next generation. Don’t pass it on—call on the power of the Cross and say, ‘This stops with me!’

Haba! How can that be?

Big lie.

School feeding or home feeding for the kids?

Is that why Igbos are omitted in the list? We are watching you closely and you will hear from us.

AUDIO! like CanadaorBust says

Exactly!
You can tell there is no sense of altruistic philanthropy here. Bill Gates gives away billions including his time without making noise

yes ooo, and yet no noise. But any little thing here. Instagram, facebook and other social media medium will be filled with pictures. If they want to do, they should do without making noise. All their noised about Otedola donate N1b, Dangote donate N10b, Adenuga donate N3b and others like that did not reach anyone. Except paper donations and self praises for themselves. God knows who truly is doing for the poor masses and they don't make noise.

We don't need all the pictures. Let them do whatever they think is necessary. There's no big deal sharing things for the poor. But here in Nigeria, they do it for political reasons.

God love a cheerful giver.

A New Beginning.

‘My unfailing love for you will not be shaken.’ Isaiah 54:10 NIV

After the divorce, her teenage daughter became increasingly rebellious. It culminated one night when the police called to ask her to come to the station and pick up her daughter, because she'd been arrested for drink driving.

Not a word was spoken between them until the next afternoon, when mum broke the tension by giving her daughter a little gift-wrapped box. Nonchalantly the girl opened it and found a small rock. Rolling her eyes she asked, ‘What’s this?’

Her mum said, ‘Here’s the card.’

She took the card from her mother's hand, and as she read it, her eyes filled with tears. Then she got up, walked across the room, and gave her mum a big hug. On the card was written these words: This rock is said to be more than two million years old—and that’s how long it will take before I give up on you!

Multiply that story a million times and you’ll get an idea of how much God loves you today! Listen, ‘“Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed, yet My unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor My covenant of peace be removed,” says the Lord who has compassion on you.’ (Isaiah 54:10 NIV)

Nothing you’ve ever done has shocked Him for He knew what He was getting when He called you. And He knows something else too—He knows what you can and will be when His grace has done its work in your life. That’s why He’ll never give up on you. Why don’t you come to Him now?

iamvictorbassey:
I honestly low-key want this COVID19 shìt to Fück Nigeria and Africa up (Me inclusive). Yes. I really do.


So that when we tell northerners that God doesn't take care of Children, they'll believe.

So that when I tell my friends that your prayers and tithes doesn't do shìt, they'll believe.

So that when you tell Nigerians something exists from the angle of a learned person, they'll believe and stop arguing.

So that when next we emphasize the need for health care budget being reasonable, legislators will agree.

In my mind, the thing is not even doing well enough. Too slow for my liking.

I want the remaining Africans who'll survive, understanding the concept of cause and effect. Understanding that we pay too much attention to non priorities like religion, ethnicity, hairstyle, greetings, dressing, tattoo, choice of food, choice of dress sense, etc. While neglecting essentials.

Covid here is too slow.

Disclaimer: Don't bother quoting me, I don't reply. I post my opinion, you post yours.

it can Bleep you up alone if that's what you wished for. Leave God out from the way we reason or leave in Africa. God knows about it already.

And Plandemic Sir

What’s Your Dream? What’s Your Plan?

Sat, 9 May 2020

‘The plan seemed good to Pharaoh and to all his officials.’ Genesis 41:37 NIV

God gave Joseph a dream that one day he’d be in a high-profile leadership position. But when he finally arrived at Pharaoh’s palace, he didn’t walk in and announce, ‘God told me I was to be the boss round here!’ No, he had to work for it! There was about to be a worldwide famine and Joseph gave Pharaoh a plan not only to survive it, but to prosper because of it.

Notice what Pharaoh said about Joseph: ‘Can we find anyone like this man, one in whom is the spirit of God?’ (Genesis 41:38 NIV) So what’s your dream? And what’s your plan? Your dream and your talent are important, but long-term success won’t happen without a plan.

The Bible says, ‘A gift opens the way and ushers the giver into the presence of the great.’ (Proverbs 18:16 KJV) Your talent may bring you to the attention of key people, but you’ll have to be able to answer the question ‘What’s your plan?’ A plan takes your dreams and talents and maximises them by bringing structure to the concept. It involves being committed to a budget; it means constantly working on specific goals and details.

Joseph gave Pharaoh a specific plan with a time line: seven years. He told him, ‘This food should be held in reserve for the country, to be used during the seven years of famine.’ (Genesis 41:36 NIV) So here’s what you need to do: write down your plan, which includes specific actions and deadlines to fulfil it. Will God bless your plan? Yes, but you must have the right plan in place before He can bless it.

BeeBeeOoh:
I'm afraid to say that this COVID-19 stuff in Nigeria is beginning to look like a scam. Because, I've lived more than 3 decades in this very country and I've come to realize that NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE IN NIGERIA.



Firstly, USA, UK, Italy, Germany, France etc that has better hospitals than us doesn't discharge COVID-19 patients the way Nigeria does. I mean, what drugs do our doctors use on the infected patients that made them recover from the virus?? Why can't they make the drugs known to all of us. Our Health Minister Need To Tell Us Something We Don't Know

Secondly, why is that the result of the infected people per day always come after 9:30pm or mostly mid night's?

Thirdly, Anambra index case was a lie because I know the man that was reported to have been infected with the virus very well, the man was never infected in the first place it was just hoax and people swallowed it hook, line and sinker. God help us



I'm just a concerned Nigerian think out loud

sir, have you heard the word scamdemic before?

Can nairaland.com stop telling us this is dead and that is dead please. Tell us more of good news.

Rejoice, You Are In The Will Of God

Fri, 8 May 2020

‘I delight to do Your will, O my God.’ Psalm 40:8 NKJV

There’s no joy in life that compares to knowing you’re in the centre of God’s will. Not fame, not riches, not pleasure. Nothing compares to knowing you have the smile of His approval on what you’re doing each day.

Will doing God’s will always be easy? No! It’s enjoyable, but it’s not always easy. Indeed, the size of your God-given assignment in life determines the level of attack against you. But your joy comes from knowing that God is strengthening you to do—by the power of His Spirit—what you could never do on your own. So in that sense, Satan’s attack is confirmation that you’re truly in God’s will!

Paul writes: ‘I have worked much harder, been in prison more frequently, been flogged more severely, and been exposed to death again and again. Five times I received from the Jews the forty lashes minus one. Three times I was beaten with rods, once I was pelted with stones, three times I was shipwrecked, I spent a night and a day in the open sea, I have been constantly on the move. I have been in danger from rivers, in danger from bandits, in danger from my fellow Jews, in danger from Gentiles; in danger in the city, in danger in the country, in danger at sea; and in danger from false believers. I have… often gone without sleep… known hunger and thirst… I have been cold and naked. Besides everything else, I face daily the pressure of my concern for all the churches. Who is weak, and I do not feel weak?’ (2 Corinthians 11:23–29 NKJV)

So rejoice—you are in the will of God!

Tissaia:
Coronavirus is a scam

When 2 communities don eat belleful. This is the result. Imagine, all the death is not a result of coronavirus oooo, but bad bellevirus.

They were even given a face mask and implemented social distancing.

Nigerian police know how to package you very well when they want to fvck you up!

Retrain Your Mind

Thu, 7 May 2020

‘For as he thinks in his heart, so is he.’ Proverbs 23:7 NKJV

The thought patterns you establish put you on autopilot. That means when specific situations arise, you’re pre-programmed to respond in a certain way. Sometimes that’s a good thing, like automatically distancing yourself from danger. Other times, you need to interrupt your autopilot function and stop your mind from going in the wrong direction.

For example, maybe you’ve spent years dreading Christmas celebrations with extended family. This year you can choose to think, ‘It’s not my favourite activity, but I’m going to look for something good in each of my relatives.’ Or maybe you’ve developed a habit of complaining and feeling overwhelmed each month when the bills arrive. Instead you can choose to think, ‘I’m going to pay as much as possible on these, and little by little I’ll get out of debt.’ Or maybe you don’t like your job, your boss, or the people you work with. If so, you have a choice. You can be negative and critical, or say, ‘I’m glad I’ve got a job; many people don’t. I’m going to do my best every day, and believe God to give me favour with my boss. My work environment may not be ideal, but I’ll do my part to make it pleasant for myself and those around me. I’d like a raise, so I’ll work hard to earn it.’

Instead of reacting to the first thoughts that cross your mind, retrain your mind, one thought at a time, to think differently. It takes a little work, but when you think God’s thoughts, He becomes your partner in accomplishing whatever you need to accomplish.

Thats cuz the people who developed the virus and have the cure won’t be making any money.

Don’t be surprise if an unknown illness hit Madagascar or war starts there suddenly.

hummm......you are right. Like watching out for Gates.

Could this truly be a case of coronavirus or something else?

2016v2017:
Don't mind the political organization called WHO. Africa is the world's last hope for survival. Africa is blessed in all fields of life

yes oooo...... Lol

WHO or no WHO, that herbal medicine from Madagascar has come to stay. To hell with WHO. How come anything from Africa is not good for them?

Do What Pleases God

Wed, 6 May 2020

‘Do what is right.’ Psalm 4:5 NCV

Day after day Potiphar’s wife tried to seduce Joseph, but he said no. He gave her no time, no attention, no chitchat, and no reason for hope. ‘He did not heed her, to lie with her or to be with her.’ (Genesis 39:10 NKJV) In today’s framework: when she called, he didn’t answer the phone; when she texted, he didn’t text back; when she showed up, he ‘fled and ran outside.’ (Genesis 39:12 NKJV)

In a culture that uses phrases like ‘consenting adults’ and ‘sexual rights’, we forget how immorality destroys the lives of people who aren’t in the bedroom. Max Lucado writes: ‘Years ago a friend gave me this counsel: “Make a list of all the lives you would affect by your sexual immorality.” I did. Every so often I reread it. “My wife Denalyn. My three daughters. My son-in-law. My yet-to-be-born granddaughter. Every person who has ever read one of my books or heard one of my sermons. My publishing team. Our church staff.” The list reminds me: One act of carnality is a poor exchange for a lifetime of lost legacy.’

Joseph’s primary reason for saying no to Potiphar’s wife was—God. ‘How… can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?’ (Genesis 39:9 NKJV)

The lesson we learn from Joseph is surprisingly simple: do what pleases God.

When a friend offers you a joint of marijuana: do what pleases God.

When your mates show you a way to cheat: do what pleases God.

When the temptation to watch pornography is great: do what pleases God.

‘How can I please God?’ you ask. ‘Do what is right as a sacrifice to the Lord and trust the Lord.’

Why can't we be drinking agbo (herbs) as suggested from Madagascar?

Let them work on Lai himself first.
