The Most Important Thing

Tue, 21 Apr 2020

‘There is only one thing worth being concerned about.’ Luke 10:42 NLT

Here are two enemies that threaten your spiritual life:

(1) Boredom. Missionary and educator Frank Laubach said, ‘If you’re weary of some sleepy form of devotion, probably God is as weary of it as you are.’ Walking with God is the most rewarding life possible. ‘In Your presence is fullness of joy; at Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.’ (Psalm 16:11 NKJV)

(2) Busyness. Jesus told Martha, ‘You are worried and upset over all these details! There is only one thing worth being concerned about. Mary has discovered it.’ (Luke 10:41–42 NLT) And what was Mary doing? Sitting at Jesus’ feet listening to Him! Martha loved Jesus and she couldn’t do enough for Him. But she was so busy serving Him that she didn’t know how to relax and enjoy being with Him.

Maybe like Martha, you think that unless you do the job yourself, it won’t get done properly. And you may be right. But God will never ask you to do anything that takes His place in your life. He wants to be your top priority. Sometimes we approach God with a list of requests the length of our arm because we’re more interested in His presents than His presence. David said, ‘The one thing I ask of the Lord—the thing I seek most—is to live in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, delighting in the Lord’s perfections and meditating in His Temple.’ (Psalm 27:4 NLT)

Can you imagine having ‘one thing’ at the top of your agenda at all times: needing and desiring to spend time with God? Think how that could revolutionise your life.

Could anyone that has received any cash transfer please signal to us so that we can know if the government is truthful.

I can't trust this government at all.

Today ‘Be Ready’

Mon, 20 Apr 2020

‘I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him Who infuses inner strength into me.’ Philippians 4:13 AMPC

The Bible says, ‘Don’t brag about tomorrow, since you don’t know what the day will bring.’ (Proverbs 27:1 NLT) The truth is, when you wake up every morning you have no idea what will happen to you that day. You hope for a trouble-free day where your expectations and desires will be fulfilled—but you know from experience this isn’t always the case. We live in a real world with real problems. Your enemy the devil is real, and he works in every possible way to bring discouragement, fear, and failure.

Knowing this, the psalmist wrote: ‘If you make the Lord your refuge… no evil will conquer you; no plague will come near your home. For He will order His angels to protect you wherever you go… The Lord says, “I will rescue those who love Me. I will protect those who trust in My name. When they call on Me, I will answer; I will be with them in trouble. I will rescue and honour them. I will reward them with a long life and give them My salvation.”’ (Psalm 91:9–16 NLT)

No matter what comes your way, you must trust that when it arrives God will give you the grace to handle it. Remember, Satan loves to attack those who are in line for God’s blessing. That’s why Paul wrote, ‘I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him Who infuses inner strength into me.’ Inner strength is better than outer strength. Why? Because as long as you remain strong inwardly, you can handle anything that comes against you outwardly and keep moving forward. So today—be ready.

........so, that makes you 80+ too.

Look For Good Counsellors

Sun, 19 Apr 2020

‘In the multitude of counsellors there is safety.’ Proverbs 11:14 NKJV

To succeed in life, you need wise and competent people around you, informed people with a proven track record who can assist you. But be advised: the best people with the most knowledge will challenge, stretch, and confront your previously held viewpoints. That doesn’t mean you should avoid them. On the contrary—that’s exactly why you need them! You must get over your fear of people who are smarter, more talented, and more experienced than you are, and learn from them instead. What stops many of us from approaching competent people is that we feel ignorant when we’re around them. It’s ok to be ignorant—but it’s not ok to stay that way! Don’t keep running back to familiar, mediocre interactions with people who don’t challenge you to grow.

The more you move into new arenas in life, the more you need ‘the multitude of counsellors’ who will push you to be more than you are, even if it’s uncomfortable at first. Go where they are, listen to what they say, and evaluate their opinions. If you’re going to build yourself up spiritually, emotionally, and financially, you must go outside your comfort zone. If you don’t, you won’t have the information you need to move beyond the familiar and attain your future goals. Only those who are willing to be stretched achieve their dreams. And remember, the people you need most are usually busy people. Generally speaking, they won’t reach for you, so you must reach for them. And be prepared; some of them may turn you down, while others, recognising your hunger for wisdom and knowledge, will respond and help you to succeed.

This one wey all him direct oga s usually die.... Hmmmmm.

Cocolatti:
While Abba Kyari was the public face of the Cabal, Babagana Kingibe is one of the strong pillars of the Buhari Cabal operating behind the scenes. He has what it takes to take the place of Kyari due to his experience in government, or the Cabal may settle for a fresh face who is loyal to them. Anyway, it's now game on. Anything can happen

like someone said, corona is anxiously waiting too.

Saying The Right Thing

Sat, 18 Apr 2020

‘The word is near you.’ Romans 10:8 NIV

If you’re not careful, it’s easy to speak words of doubt that contradict what God says in His Word. Paul writes of the word that saves, ‘“The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,” that is, the message concerning faith that we proclaim.’ So, speak God’s Word over your situation and watch Him go to work on your behalf, setting things right for you.

The word ‘confession’ is related to the Greek word homologia, which means ‘to come into agreement with, or say the same thing’. That means you must come into agreement with God’s Word and learn to say what He says, no matter how bad things look at the time. If it’s not what God is saying, it’s counterproductive. But if it is, your words become powerful weapons.

The Bible says, ‘How forcible are right words!’ (Job 6:25 KJV) This word ‘forcible’ comes from the Hebrew word marats which means ‘to press’. Just like a king’s signet ring pressed his seal of authority onto a document, your confession of faith seals the matter before God. Jesus said: ‘Assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, “Be removed and be cast into the sea,” and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says. Therefore… whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.’ (Mark 11:23–24 NKJV)

Don’t just speak to God about your mountain—speak to your mountain using God’s Word! When you make God’s Word your word, your mountain will begin to move.

I'm happy for you bro. The Lord will make all permanent for you in Jesus name. Keep praising the LORD.

You’re ‘Connected’

‘If anyone does sin, we have an advocate.’ 1 John 2:1 NLT

The moon and stars you can see on a clear night are mere drops in the vast sea of the universe. Our sun is one of more than 100 billion stars that make up the Milky Way galaxy. And there may be as many as 100 billion other galaxies—billions of which may have hundreds of millions of planets like ours. The Hubble Space Telescope relays images of galaxies as far away as thirteen billion light years—that’s thirteen billion times nine trillion kilometres! And all this was created because God proclaimed: ‘Let there be’ (see Genesis 1). But here’s something even more amazing: the One who created it all loves you and cares about every detail of your life. When you are weak, He is strong. When you blow it, He forgives you.

The Bible says, ‘If anyone does sin, we have an advocate who pleads our case before the Father. He is Jesus Christ, the One who is truly righteous. He Himself is the sacrifice that atones for our sins.’ (1 John 2:1–2 NLT) God’s grace is truly amazing, and you don’t have to do anything to deserve it. Because God is your Father, you can call home anytime and find a welcome. You’re ‘connected’ to the One who ‘understands our weaknesses, for He faced all of the same testings we do, yet He did not sin. So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive His mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most.’ (Hebrews 4:15–16 NLT) You’re connected to unending mercy and grace—how awesome is that?

Why now? Even if it was a biscuits he should have feed on it. People should not wait till when they have their usual solid food to eat. Please take even biscuits or pap of N50 to hold body. This is really sad if truly he died of hunger. God will surely save us from this famine.

Ah!

This is world is full of shit. Full of pretenders and hatred.

Keep Learning

Thu, 16 Apr 2020

‘A wise person is hungry for knowledge.’ Proverbs 15:14 NLT

It’s been said that we forget more than 80 per cent of what we learn in school and college. That raises the question, ‘Why bother? Is education really worth what we invest in it?’ It is. There are many valid reasons for learning, even if forgetting will take its usual toll. Here are five of the most important ones:

(1) The most important function of the learning process is the self-discipline and control that it fosters. Good students learn to follow directions, carry out assignments, and channel their mental faculties towards a constructive end. These are skills you’ll need in order to succeed in life.

(2) Even if the facts and concepts can’t be recalled, you know they exist and where to find them. So you can retrieve the information when you need it later on.

(3) Old learning makes new learning easier. Each mental exercise gives you more associative clues with which to link future ideas and concepts, and you are changed for having been through the process of learning.

(4) Your brain is like the programming in your computer. You don’t really forget anything that is within the reach of your memory. The information is still stored in your brain and will return to consciousness when properly stimulated.

(5) You are shaped by the influence of the people who teach you. The Bible says, ‘The heart of him who has understanding seeks knowledge.’ (Proverbs 15:14 NKJV) Perhaps you wish that an easier process for shaping the human mind could be found, rather than the slow, painful experience of education. But until a ‘learning pill’ is developed, the old-fashioned approach will have to do.

Do You Have A Plan For Your Life?

Wed, 15 Apr 2020

‘Good planning and hard work lead to prosperity.’ Proverbs 21:5 NLT

Without a plan for your life, life just ‘happens’ to you. Some of us plan our lives one day at a time. We wake up, make our to-do list, and dive into action. Some of us even plan our lives one week at a time. We review the calendar for the week, check our appointments, review our goals, and then get to work.

Leadership expert John Maxwell writes: ‘At the beginning of every month, I spend a half day working on my calendar for the next forty days. Forty days works for me rather than just thirty. That way, I get a jump on the next month and don’t get surprised. I begin by reviewing my travel schedule and planning activities with my family. Then I review what projects, lessons, and other objectives I want to accomplish during those five to six weeks. Then I start blocking out days and times for thinking, writing, working, meeting with people, etc. I set times to do fun things such as seeing a show, watching a ball game, or playing golf. I also set aside small blocks of time to compensate for the unexpected. By the time I’m done, I can tell you nearly everything I’ll be doing, almost hour by hour, during the coming weeks. This is one of the reasons I have been able to accomplish so much.’

The thought of planning forty days at a time may overwhelm you, so start by planning your day. Then aim for a week, a month, a year, etc. And if you consult God, ‘He will show you which path to take.’ (Proverbs 3:6 NLT)
