Not again!  When will the Nigerian Police stop all this senseless killing of her citizens? How do you expect the people to honour/respect this police again? The only thing they bring around you is fear. Fear of you been shot by one silly and senseless man that wear a black uniform. I think, it's time that this happy killer police should be giving a public trial. Things can't continue like this now. Who do we know that is next from this MIB (men in black)? |

| Nairaland General › Today's Word: Seeing Your Work As God’s Will (2) by Btruth(op): 7:34am On Oct 28, 2015 |
Wednesday October 28 “Do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus.” Col 3:17 NIV Seeing your work as God’s will (2) Research shows that the best moments of our lives don’t come from leisure or pleasure. They come when you’re immersed in a significant task that’s challenging, yet matches up well to your highest abilities. In those moments, you’re so caught up in an activity that time somehow seems to be altered; your attention is fully focused without your having to work at it. You’re deeply aware, without being self-conscious; you’re being stretched and challenged, but without a sense of stress or worry. You have a sense of engagement or oneness with what you are doing. This condition is called “flow,” because people experiencing it often use the metaphor of feeling swept up by something outside themselves. Studies have been done over the past thirty years with hundreds of thousands of subjects, to explore this phenomenon of flow. Ironically, you experience it more in your work than you do in your leisure time. In fact, your flow is at its lowest ebb when you’ve nothing to do. Sitting around doesn’t produce flow. This picture of flow is actually a description of what the exercise of dominion was intended to look like. God says in Genesis that we’re to “rule” over the earth, or exercise “dominion” (Ge 1:26, 28). We often think of these words in terms of “dominating” or “bossing around.” But the true idea behind them is that you’re to invest your abilities to create value on the earth, to plant and build and write and organize and heal and invent ways that bless people and cause God’s kingdom on earth to flourish. |

| Nairaland General › Today's Word: Seeing Your Work As God’s Will (1). by Btruth(op): 7:11am On Oct 27, 2015 |
Tuesday October 27 “I must work the works of him that sent me.” Jn 9:4 Seeing your work as God’s will (1) You’ll experience a new level of fulfillment when you begin to see what you do for a living as an important part of God’s will for your life. Jesus preached and healed, but He saw it all as “work” given to Him by His Father. You must too. Instead of seeing church as a place where you meet with God on Sunday morning, see it as a place where you’re fed and strengthened so that you can carry the presence of God with you into the workplace. “Whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him” (Col 3:17 NIV). Notice two words here: (1) “Word.” That covers skills of communication and information. (2) “Deed.” That covers skills such as creativity and building. Whatever you do, you’re supposed to do it with a thankful heart, as though the Lord were your boss—because He is. When you work with that attitude, you come alive. One person comes alive when they pick up a musical instrument, another when they lead a team, another when they counsel someone who’s hurting, and another when they’re looking at a financial spreadsheet. When each of us is doing what God designed and called us to do, the world around us is enriched. All skill is God-given, and we’re invited to live in conscious interaction with the Holy Spirit as we work, so that we can develop the skills He gives us. Work is a form of love. We cannot be fully human without creating value. |

| Nairaland General › Today's Word: Stop Putting Yourself Down.... by Btruth(op): 6:49am On Oct 26, 2015 |
Monday October 26 “Jesus asked him…‘What is thy name?’” Lk 8:30 Stop putting yourself down Remember the man in Scripture who was possessed by demons? “Jesus asked him…‘What is thy name?’ And he said, ‘Legion’: because many devils were entered into him.” (A legion in the Roman army comprised some six thousand troops.) “Legion” wasn’t this man’s real name; it was merely a label. But he’d battled his problem so long that he accepted the label, and defined himself by his experience. Perhaps you’ve labeled yourself “fat,” because you’ve battled weight for so long with no apparent victory in sight. Or you define yourself as a “victim,” because you were abused or taken advantage of by others. Maybe you see yourself as a “failure,” because you’re divorced, or your kids have gone off the tracks. If so, it’s time to lose the negative labels and start seeing yourself the way God sees you. Jesus set this tormented man free, gave him back his self-worth, and restored him to his family. And He wants to do the same for you! Satan will take you from one extreme to the other. He’ll make you either boastful or bashful; make you think you’re “hot stuff,” or convince you that you’re worthless. Don’t buy it! Self-deprecation is often disguised as humility, when in reality it’s a rejection of God’s Word, which assures you that you “can do all things through Christ who strengthens [you]” (Php 4:13 NKJV). What others call you doesn’t matter; what you call yourself does! The bottom line is: “God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things, at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work” (2Co 9:8 NIV). |

Deporting 29,000 immigrants back to Nigeria will cost close to, if not above £30m. David Cameron will have it tough getting approval for wasting tax payers money on programme like that. Besides, the conservative party has no good business plan for the country, and I'm not surprised that they concentrate all their efforts frustrating the foreigners. I remember the time of Labour under Tony Blair, the UK economy was so buoyant that as a student or even on a visiting visa, you still got to pick some work to do. But, look at it today, where or what position is UK among the countries of Europe? I think their government should concentrate on revamping the economy than chasing the immigrant. 1 Like |

| Nairaland General › Today's Word: Honesty On Three Levels. by Btruth(op): 5:46am On Oct 25, 2015 |
Sunday October 25 “Each of you must…speak truthfully to his neighbor.” Eph 4:25 NIV Honesty on three levels Telling the truth sounds simple, but it takes commitment on three levels: (1) Verbally. When you’re found out in a lie, it undermines the confidence others have in you. For example, when a husband or wife denies blowing the family budget, or covers up a drinking problem, inevitably there’s trouble. But when each knows that the other “will hold to the truth in love,” the relationship becomes stronger and more likely to weather the storm (See Eph 4:15). (2) Behaviorally. “Unless you are honest in small matters, you won’t be in large ones. If you cheat even a little, you won’t be honest with greater responsibilities” (Lk 16:10 TLB). Cheryl Richardson says, “Integrity is the key to living an authentic life.” You become known as a person of integrity by keeping your word. So when you make a commitment, follow through—even when it costs you, and even when you get a better offer. (3) In actuality. Why is telling the truth such a big deal? Because every relationship in your life is based on trust. When you don’t deal truthfully: (a) You end up losing your influence and the respect of others. (b) You live in fear of being found out, which makes you insecure and forces you to live on two levels: public perception and private struggle. (c) You have to worry about what you’ve said, and to whom. (d) You get to where you can’t trust or believe others because “as you live your life, you judge your neighbor.” (e) You make yourself feel better by rationalizing, “Everybody lies.” The trouble with that line of thinking is—you can’t trust them either! |

| Nairaland General › Today's Word: Don't Be Afraid, God Is With You. by Btruth(op): 5:36am On Oct 24, 2015 |
Saturday October 24 “l am your shield, your very great reward.” Ge 15:1 NIV Don’t be afraid, God is with you When God sends you into a new situation, or asks you to do something you’ve never done before, you’ll experience uncertainty and fear, and have a lot of questions. God knows that; that’s why the promise He gives you is always equal to the project He gives you. Imagine selling your house, packing up your belongings, putting your family in the car, and heading down the road without having a clue where you’re going. Sound crazy? That’s what God asked Abraham to do. But He told him, “Do not be afraid…I am your shield, your very great reward.” The word “shield” means God will protect you, and the word “reward” means He will provide everything you need. Does that mean you won’t experience fear? No, it means you must trust Him in spite of your fears! Dr. Bernard Vittone says: “As we age we lose the ability to distinguish between the negative anxiety associated with work, stress, and tension, and the positive type that’s a natural and exciting part of trying something new. As a result we become more fearful and avoid anxiety-producing situations. When that happens, the desire for safety keeps us stuck in neutral. Trying to avoid risk is like trying to avoid living; without a goal to strive for you stop growing altogether.” If Abraham had refused to obey God because he feared the unknown and the untried, he’d have missed his “very great reward.” So press through your fear today and claim the blessing God has promised you on the other side of it. Don’t be afraid; God is with you! |

| Nairaland General › Today's Word: Don't Boast! by Btruth(op): 6:07am On Oct 23, 2015 |
Friday October 23 “Because God was so gracious, so very generous, here I am.” 1Co 15:10 TM Don’t boast If you’ve been blessed with success, read these words from Paul and take them to heart: “Because God was so gracious, so very generous, here I am.” Every good thing you have right now, plus every good thing you’ll enjoy in the future, comes from God. Try never to forget that! You say, “Wait a minute, I worked hard for this. Don’t I deserve a little credit?” Yes, you do; the Bible says, “Give honor and respect to all those to whom it is due” (Ro 13:7 TLB). But praise by its very nature can be intoxicating. The human body is a remarkable piece of chemistry; pat a man or woman on the back—and their head starts to swell! Someone said praise is like perfume; if you consume it, it’ll kill you! That’s why Paul gives us this timely reminder: “Isn’t everything you have and everything you are sheer gifts from God? So what’s the point of all this comparing and competing?” (1Co 4:7 TM). One day King Nebuchadnezzar’s head got too big for his hat, and he boasted, “Look at this great city of Babylon! By my own mighty power, I have built” (Da 4:30 NLT). But God interrupted his proud moment and stripped him of his kingdom, and he ended up losing his mind and living like a wild beast. Only when he repented and acknowledged that God was the ruler over everything, did God restore his sanity and his kingdom. Corrected, humbled, and enlightened, he knelt down and prayed, “I, Nebuchadnezzar, raised my eyes toward heaven, and my sanity was restored” (v. 34 NIV). Boasting is a form of insanity—don’t do it! |
