Christ Brings Progress To All Fri, 29 Jun 2018 ‘Righteousness exalts a nation.’ Proverbs 14:34 NKJV The well-known atheist Madalyn Murray O’Hair once said, ‘Nothing good has ever come from Christianity. And if Christianity hasn’t, in fact, done good and produced good we must reject it.’ Even Christ Himself said, ‘You shall know them by their fruits.’ (Matthew 7:16 NKJV) But with every word of Christ that’s been preached, lives have been transformed and incredible good done for society. Take science, for example. As one expert pointed out, science could never have originated in any other culture. It couldn’t possibly have originated in the Muslim culture because of its belief in fatalism, which absolutely prevents any concept of scientific progress. Nor could it have originated among the Buddhists, or the Hindus of Asia, because of their belief that the physical world is an illusion and that our separation from the divine is merely imagination. Only through Christianity could science have come to be! Think about those who have gone into the slums to rescue the derelict, like the Salvation Army, the City Mission, and the YMCA. Christians have given themselves to such people as these. Today with the removal of Scripture from much of our culture, we’re seeing decay and corruption set in. So what’s the answer? Jesus said, ‘You are the salt of the earth.’ (Matthew 5:13 NKJV) So get your saltshaker out and start spreading the life-changing truth of God’s Word! Jesus also said, ‘You are the light of the world.’ (Matthew 5:14 NKJV) There’s not enough darkness in the whole world to extinguish the light of one small candle. So let your light shine. |
[quote author= post=68917105]WHAT A BLACK THURSDAY. Thanking God no life was lost this time[/quote]It was indeed a black Thursday. This country needs a lot prayers for protection. |
I actually thought that Femi Adeshina is wiser than Lai Mohammed nii oooo. I can't believe them making comparison to the past administration. |
Very annoying game. When they have the chances, they messed it up. They didn't play like they played against Poland. Whatever they were thinking, it's all over now. |
Zceesneh:.....and have you see what the mentality of a draw has cost them now? ......they aren't playing to expectations today. |
Senegal are playing as if they are charmed. Meanwhile, they need to win the match to qualify I think. |
What’s Your Ox-Goad? Thu, 28 Jun 2018 ‘Shamgar… struck down six hundred Philistines with an ox-goad. He too saved Israel.’ Judges 3:31 NIV Because the Israelites disobeyed God, they ended up enslaved to the Philistines who ruled them by fear and intimidation. But Shamgar refused to be intimidated. He decided to disrupt the status quo, and he did it with an ox-goad—a long stick used by farmers to prod animals. He refused to let what he could not do keep him from doing what he could. After all, you plus God equals a majority. And if God is for you, who can be against you? (See Romans 8:31.) So Shamgar grabbed his ox-goad and charged six hundred Philistine soldiers. The enemy probably chuckled at his makeshift weaponry until he started wielding it. Then the look in his eyes struck fear into their hearts. Courage doesn’t wait until the situation favours you, or the plan is perfectly formed, or the tide of opinion turns. Courage only waits for one thing: a green light from God. And when God gives the go, it’s full steam ahead, no questions asked. It’s about attacking the problem with whatever ox-goad God has given you. It’s an all-out assault on the forces of darkness, by deciding to become ‘salt and light’ where God has placed you. It’s more than pointing out the problems, it’s committing yourself to be part of the solution. It’s more than just having a heart for Christ, it’s deciding to take action and become His hands and feet. Instead of sitting on the side-lines because you believe others are more qualified, it’s using what God gave you and asking Him to bless it. As the songwriter said, ‘Little is much, when God is in it.’ |
Just leave them alone oooo. ....., let them be, for peace to reign. "Awon elemi esu". |
.....he has tried his best. |

............how does this make sense? |
Faithfulness, Not Prominence Wed, 27 Jun 2018 ‘Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks [for the privilege].’ Colossians 3:17 NKJV When it comes to serving God, and others, set your heart on being faithful instead of trying to be prominent. The Bible says, ‘Promotion and power come… only from God’ (Psalm 75:6 TLB), so don’t try to promote yourself. Few things in life are worse than being in a slot to which you were never called and are ill-equipped to fill. Josh McDowell, who has spoken to millions of university students worldwide and authored scores of books, began his lifetime of service to Christ in a humble fashion. His first assignment at the headquarters of Campus Crusade for Christ was cleaning the main entryway floor. He wasn’t meeting with ministry leaders; he was busy scrubbing up the dirt from their shoes. Josh’s introduction to ministry was equivalent to the guy in the Old Testament who carried the tent pegs when they moved the tabernacle from place to place. Not exactly a high-profile position! Without a proper perspective on motivation for ministry, it’s easy to get our feathers ruffled when we’re given an assignment we feel is beneath us. So how do we stay motivated about serving God? By remembering the promise that one day we’ll reap what we sow (see Galatians 6:7). God has promised that at the judgment seat of Christ He’ll reward our faithful service. So if He has called you to serve Him by serving others, keep your heart focused on faithfulness—not pride of place. Live by this Scripture: ‘Whatever you do or say, do it as a representative of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks [for the privilege].’ (Colossians 3:17 NLT) |
Meanwhile, Iceland vs Croatia is now 1: 1 |
IamPlato:Haba!.... this is too much ooooo. |
Very inspirational. |
Well spoken & worth sharing. ...... Nigeria is really been damaged. Tinubu & I have been scammed, because I voted for this failed government. I can tolerate the challenges in the economy, but continous killing of innocent Nigerians is totally hitting below the belt. |
SergiusOgun2019:I wish you all success in your political ambition. But the way politics & politicians just dey anger me for this country now ehn? ...... .....it is well. |
As it is now, it will be very unwise to travel around those zone for business both in private or public transport. Nigeria is seriously in problem. It's indeed a chaotic situation in this country and yet our leaders have no vision. The Bible says "my people die because they lack wisdom". We don't need to be told that this Buhari administration lack no wisdom & direction to lead this country. All that's be happening in the middle belt and the latest happening at Jos is a case of ethnic cleansing and genocide. God will punish everyone involved in this killing with bitter revenge no matter how strong their position is in this country. *** I am deeply saddened. |
The Rewards of Friendship (2) Tue, 26 Jun 2018 ‘You find families for those who are lonely.’ Psalm 68:6 CEV A woman, recently divorced, moved to a town where she knew nobody. When she finally got up the nerve to visit a church, she prayed, ‘Lord, let me fit in. Surround me with friends.’ The Bible says, ‘A man who has friends must… be friendly.’ (Proverbs 18:24 NKJV) So she asked two ladies if she could sit with them, and they ended up going out to lunch together. Turns out, all three women lived alone and were feeling isolated. So they started a Bible study group and named it G.A.L.S.: God’s Amazing Love Sustains. Ruth Senter said, ‘When you’re truly joined in spirit… you work for the good of each other,’ and years later this little ‘family’ is going strong, sharing their ups and downs, praying, and looking out for each other. Thomas Blackaby observed: ‘One of the good things God does is provide godly friends. This is one of His ways of giving us encouragement, support, advice, and companionship. Paul couldn’t have physically survived many of his trials and persecutions without companions (see 2 Corinthians 7:6–7). It’s sad when God’s people don’t spend time developing friendships, and instead go off on their own in ministry… no wonder they often burn out… or come home disillusioned or bitter because they didn’t have the support and encouragement their ministry demanded… Thank God for those He’s chosen to be encouragers and supporters. Who are you being a friend to right now? Who has God put on your heart to strengthen and walk alongside? Ask Him to help you be a faithful friend… that together you can rejoice in what He does through your combined efforts.’ |
SergiusOgun2019:we are loosing is an understatement. Sanity is lost completely in this country. Haven't you heard of the newest way Almighty SARS are using to extort money from students? or raping of ladies in the name of following yahoo boys? One can't believe that police are truly functional in this country again. it is well. |
That is outrageous. I'm not in support of this at all. It's completely fraud. |
Did anyone notice the name of the robber to be Ibrahim? Please fear the north as quoted by Obasanjo then......lol. |
Why is this president always confusing himself all the time gan self? Will it not be better for him to resign than complicating things for himself all the time? |
Will Nigeria ever be the same again O Lord? |
