“God…will not forget your work and the love you have shown.”  Heb 6:10 NIV

God values what you do

Satan will try to convince you that you don’t count for much in God’s kingdom because you don’t have a high-profile gift like preaching, teaching, or leading in public. Nothing could be further from the truth: “God…will not forget your work and the love you have shown…as you…helped his people.” God sees you working behind the scenes day in and day out, caring for aging loved ones, raising your children, encouraging others, and contributing where you can. Will Rogers said, “We can’t all be heroes. Somebody has to sit on the curb and clap as they go by.” So when you think you’re too small to do big things, try doing small things with a big heart of love. You never know what you can do until you try! James Sizoo said: “Glamour isn’t greatness, applause isn’t fame, and prominence isn’t eminence. The man of the hour isn’t apt to be the man of the ages. A stone may sparkle but that doesn’t make it a diamond. People may have money but that doesn’t make them a success. It’s the seemingly unimportant people who determine the course of history. The greatest forces in the universe are never spectacular. Summer showers do more good than hurricanes, but they don’t get a lot of publicity. The world would soon die but for the fidelity, loyalty, creativity, and commitment of those whose names are unhonored and unsung.” Today God values what you do. “Don’t get discouraged and give up, for [you] will reap a harvest of blessing at the appropriate time” (See Gal 6:9).

Thank God for the journey mercy. Finally, we won the cup for the 5th time. Thank you Lord.

Eaglet are really hungry for more goals now. I love that spirit. I can see 3rd goal coming soon.

Phame:
We have the most honest and transparent gov't ever in our history in place right now.

A bi? All we need is an honest government. If there's a problem, they should let us know. And I'm glad that is what the NNPC Boss has been telling us. Let face it, what would have happened if that fisherman party has gone back in?

Nice shot there!

This malians are too rough

Very rough! But, they will hear wen soon.

Tonight naa war.

Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.

Isaiah 26:3

Wonderful Father! How much I love you.

The Lord is for us.

Well i want Biafra to go. Let them go into their neverland country . But as of now , the constituent parts of the so-called Biafra are not yet defined ! But that is not my business . All Igbos must be ready to leave the South-west and the North once the agreements are signed in Geneva .

that is the main problem. Will they all be ready to leave the SW, N and the middle belt to go back to their region? Moreso, they need to define their region for us all to see.

[quote author=Btruth post=39796043]I think I'm in support of the Igbo to go and form their country. Enough of the agitation, so that we remaining Nigeria can move on.

I think I'm in support of the Igbo to go and form their country. Enough of the agitation, so that we remaining Nigeria can move on. If there's anything that we don't want in stopping building us (true Nigeria) up as strong nation is distraction. I wish them goodluck, all my Ibo friends, I wish you all goodluck. Though I will miss you guys, but we will always pay each other a visit or we will meet for overseas.

Happy Sunday to Nigeria and Biafra.

Duru1:
There was no conduct of primaries by APC in Imo State yet the Muhammadu Buhari's tribunal upheld the election of Okorocha. In fact, the report reaching us had indicated that Okorocha's son in-law was named not nominated as APC candidate Imo State. Nigeria is a joke and it seems worse everyday.

If that is right, then this verdict in Taraba is good for the PDP in Imo to make their argument. Don't you think so?

“Is anyone among you afflicted (ill-treated, suffering evil)? He should pray.”  Jas 5:13 AMP

Pray about it

It’s amazing how long we put up with things before we decide to pray about them. The hymn writer says, “O what peace we often forfeit; O what needless pain we bear. All because we do not carry everything to God in prayer.” We complain to our friends. We wonder why God doesn’t do something. We wrestle with the situation in our minds, yet we fail to take advantage of the simplest solution there is—prayer. Charles Spurgeon wrote, “The desire to commune with God is intensified by the failure of all other sources of consolation.” We’re all guilty of treating prayer as a last-ditch effort. When you say things like, “Nothing else is working. Maybe I should pray about it,” do you realize what that says about you? That you really don’t understand or believe in the power of prayer as you should. You’re carrying burdens you don’t need to carry, and life is harder than it has to be because you don’t realize how powerful prayer is. If you did, you’d pray about everything—not as a last resort but as a first response. The Bible says, “Is anyone among you afflicted (ill-treated, suffering evil)? He should pray.” When you’ve a problem: pray. When someone hurts you: pray. When you’re sick: pray. When you feel like giving up: pray. When someone you love is suffering: pray. When you’re discouraged: pray. When you don’t know what to do: pray. Jesus, who prayed early in the morning and late at night, said, “Whatever things you ask for when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them” (Mk 11:24 NKJV). So pray about it.

Can you imagine, 900 bags of 50kg of cements? That was 45 tonnes plus the truck on that goddam bridge! What is the problem with us in this country? It's obvious that those heavy duty trucks are responsible for all the damages done to our roads. Federal govt. need to do something in controlling the weight of those trucks and their loads. What happened to all the weighbridges all over the country?

I only hope Fayose remember that the whole nation knows how he got to that government house. Does he want someone to play his tape with Obanikoro and others on how they plan his rigging to the state house?

How soon he forgot. Anyway, sooner or later, your case will be re-visited too. #Ole!

Different strokes for different folks. I'm happy for you though, while I remember those triplets that I read their story this afternoon in my prayers. Their mother passed on after 3 hours they were born. It is well.

As a loyal fan of Chelsea FC, I must confess that for the first time, I'm really really frustrated with the result of today's match. Must we continue to blame the coach/manager for the poor performances of the players? Or, are the players not dedicated to the game like before now. The way things are going, I'm really afraid for the Blue team. But, as the saying goes, it's not over until it's over. Up Blues!

dallydd:
please my current passport will expire by 2018 but i want to change my surname and one other name to make it tally with my certificate .how is this possible and how much . please i will appreciate all ideas house

I really think you need to get to Ikeja passport office to know that. Most likely that you will have an "OBSERVATION" stamped on your passport for the correction. It had happens to me before in the early 90s.

Omg!

"Oluwa, ma fi ikan gba ikan lowo waa oooo"

RIP to the sweet mother. Lord will see your offspring through life in Jesus name.

PRYCE:
I didn't say the election was credible but that the eligibility of one of the respondents wasn't contained in the petitioners application... and courts work on the contents of an application right?

......we can't know more than the court, lawyers and the presiding judge now? can we?

To God be the glory for making this possible when least we expected it. It's nice for us to see our first female becoming a governor in Nigeria. Another good history for APC.

Hello Wike, relax don't trouble yourself. You were giving the opportunity for a re_run, OK? But, you better go and started preparing yourself well for Mr. Peterside Dakuku or else, you will use that government house to make history that you've been there once before.

Hallelujah! Thank you Jesus for the sweet victory.

“This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”  Mt 3:17 NKJV

Step into the water

When Jesus was baptized, “the heavens were opened to Him…And suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, ‘This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased’” (vv. 16-17 NKJV). That day when Jesus stepped into the River Jordan, He was stepping into the fullness of God’s purpose for His life. Those waters were teeming with the sins of mankind. John had baptized multitudes of converts there; their sins figuratively passing from them into the sea of God’s forgetfulness, just like the waters of the River Jordan end up in the Dead Sea. Maybe you’re appalled at the idea of Jesus wading into sin. But He was doing it to fulfill the purpose of God—redemption for you. Jesus was exactly where God wanted Him to be, doing exactly what God wanted Him to do. That’s why His Father announced, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” There’s a lesson here for you. Doing God’s will sometimes means stepping into messy situations and troubled waters. But when you obey God and do what He says, you won’t have to speak up for yourself or fight for yourself. God will command whatever forces are involved to yield to you, honor you, listen to you, and even bless you. You won’t have to flounder around for the right answer, or wonder if something is right for you. God will give you the ability and resources you need because you’re where He wants you to be, doing what He wants you to do. So the word for you today is “step into the water.”

Will giving them Biafra solve this issue? How many Ibo are really ready for this drum of separation? I think they need to put it into referendum. All we want for us and them is peace. If they really want to go, so be it. Let them be gone.

"Won nki bi somi me'ja".

Wetin Nigeria no go import self? ..... naa wa oooo.

First time that I will observe the wife of the President and the vice-President getting along very well in this country. The 2 of them thus like each other though.

“Matthew got up and followed him.”  Mt 9:9 NIV

Don’t let fear stop you (2)

Collecting taxes for the Romans was a lucrative job. But for a Jew like Matthew it meant betraying your own people. As a result he was despised and excluded from religious worship. But that didn’t stop Jesus from calling him to be a disciple. And when He did, Matthew didn’t hesitate; he “got up and followed him.” Sheila Schuller Coleman points out: “Where everyone else saw a pariah, Jesus saw a promise…where everyone else saw a traitor, Jesus saw a loyal follower. Where everyone saw a loser, Jesus saw a champion of the faith…It matters not who we are…our education…our pedigree…our connections…or our history…Jesus has a plan…and He needs every one of us to fulfill our God-given, divine purpose.” It’s natural to be apprehensive when you’re facing change and uncertainty, but God says, “Take courage!…Don’t be afraid” (Mt 14:27 NIV). One Bible teacher writes: “God knows it involves a challenging stretch…He knows our abilities and resources aren’t what strengthen us for the journey (See Php 4:13). When we fear we can’t do the things God calls us to do…that He won’t protect and provide…we embrace the lie that our circumstances are bigger than God, and our faith gets placed on the altar of our own perceptions. If you’re like me you often fear what’s behind the curtain of God’s call, and—frustratingly—He won’t let me peek…He keeps the curtain of our future drawn so we’ll learn to live by faith and not by sight, so we’ll become certain of what we hope for, and become sure of God even when we can’t see how He’s working in our current circumstances.”
