PaChukwudi44:
so it took six whole months for the useless and powerless oracle to react? This is just a co-incidence.BTW where the affected priests the ones who burnt the shrine?

Don't mind them. I do not see any link of their death to the destruction of the said shrine, after all Rev. Fr. Emmanuel Obimma (Ebube Muonso), the spiritual director of Holy Ghost Adoration Ministry, Uke that carried out the destruction prayer is alive and strong. So why will the shrine go after these ones; in fact, who is the shrine sef to touch the Lord's anointed ?

Why always Ogun state. It's high time security operatives searched every nook and cranny of the state.

Pls what is MURIC? somebody help

Proffdada:
They're not protesting against the butchery by Fulani herdsmen
They're interested in moneybags
BTW who Mary help?

......At least they are protesting for something worth protesting for. Since you have identified butchery by Fulani herdsmen, oya carry placard and hit street for your own protest.
On who Mary help, leave am...... She helped and still help billions

Anigreat:
The Bible has stood the test of time and it is the most popular book in the world. No book has sold more copies than the Bible and it continues to change lost sinners into children of God. There are many amazing stories of God’s faithful people being saved from gut wrenching experiences. There are many stories of God’s people claiming victory in the midst of the odds stacked against them.

Here is a look at some inspirational characters from the Bible! because of the amazing faith they had in chaotic/life threatening circumstances.



MOSES, THE MAN OF PATIENCE
Moses had an extreme amount of patience with Israel as he led the hopeless generation through the wilderness for 40 years. They praised God one minute and then were complaining about God the next minute. We get bent out of shape over trivial nuances, but Moses even though distraught with Israel led them with great patience for 4 decades. True, he did miss the Promised Land because of his disobedience to God (Numbers 20:8-12), but I know I would not have lasted longer than 1 year with them.


ABRAHAM, THE MAN OF FAITH
Abraham and Sarah were without children and they were old. Abraham was 100 years old and Sarah was 90 years old when God promised Abraham a son. (Genesis 17:15-19) Can you imagine the relief when his son, Isaac, was finally was born? He thought his time was over for him and Sarah to conceive. So, imagine how amazing that must have been. With such a joyous occasion, God then put Abraham to the test to sacrifice Isaac. (Genesis 22:1-14) God wanted to see if Abraham loved him more than Isaac. What would you think in this instance? I would be brought to dread, thinking, “Why, Lord? I waited so long for my boy and now you want me to sacrifice him?" I don’t think I would have been able to follow through with it. Thankfully we know the end of the story and God did stop Abraham from killing Isaac, but Abraham was dying inside. He had no idea that God was going to stop the sacrifice. He was a real man of faith!

NOAH, THE MAN OF ENDURANCE
In Genesis chapter 6 God tells Noah of the flood that is coming to wipe out all of creation and that Noah needed to build an ark for his family, 2 of every kind of animal (male and female), 7 pairs of all clean animals and 7 pairs of the birds of the heavens. Here’s the thing, Noah was over 500 years old when he had to build the ark. His sons helped him build it, but some suggest that it took at least 55 years to build it! That is a LOT of work! In those 55 years, Noah and his sons still needed to get the necessities for each day too (food, water ect…) Noah had to have been extremely exhausted by the time the ark was finished. He endured a 55 year minimum project to save his family and creation from the flood. He is a man of endurance!


ELIJAH, THE BOLD
Elijah was the boldest of all of the prophets. When wickedness and false Idols of Baal were seen everywhere in the land, Elijah remained faithful to God. Elijah went to wicked King Ahab and said to him, “As the Lord, the God of Israel lives, before whom I stand, there shall be neither dew nor rain these years except at my word." (1 Kings 17:1) He was afraid of no king on earth. In 1 Kings 18:20-40, he defeats the prophets of Baal and has them all slaughtered at the brook Kishon. Elijah was not a man of fear, but he boldly did what God commanded in all circumstances.

DANIEL, THE MAN OF DEVOTION
Daniel is definitely one to model after. His faith and devotion to God was unwavering. He refused to defile himself with King Nebuchadnezzar’s food and wine, and requested only vegetables and water (Daniel 1:8-16). When the decree was issued that no one could pray to any god or man except to the king for 30 days, Daniel prayed consistently 3 times a day to the One true God, knowing that the punishment was getting thrown into a
den full of lions. And he was thrown into the den after being caught by the schemers. (Daniel 6:10-16) Daniel did not fear man or death. He was completely devoted to God.

DAVID, THE MAN AFTER GOD'S OWN HEART
David is known as the man after God’s own heart because of his passion for justice and for his bravery. He wanted to always do things the right way. When the Philistines came with Goliath to challenge Israel, David was the only one willing to fight. (1 Samuel chapter 17) David was scrawny while Goliath towered over all at 9 ft 9 in. He was massive. God delivered Goliath into the hands of tiny David. When David had every right to kill Saul, he let him live. (1 Samuel chapter 24) In the midst of chaos, David always went to God to seek His guidance and help. “Deliver me from sinking in the mire; let me be delivered from my enemies and from the deep waters. Let not the flood sweep over me, or the deep swallow me up, or the pit close its mouth over me. Answer me, O Lord, for Your steadfast love is good; according to Your abundant mercy, turn to me." (Psalm 69:14-16) David was solid and just. He sought out God daily for guidance and help.

JOB, THE MAN OF PERSEVERANCE
Job is probably my favorite character of the Bible. He persevered through some of the most dreadful circumstances. He lost all of his children, cattle, and servants at the same time! (Job 1:13-19) He persevered by worshipping the Lord! (Job 1:20-21) This probably would not be the first thing on my mind if my children were taken from me. Then he was struck with loathsome sores all over. (Job 2:7) He persevered by justly rebuking his wife for her blasphemy and by declaring that God is sovereign whether we receive good or bad. (Job 2:9-10) Then his 3 friends taunt him for what seems like an eternity and he still holds fast through it all. He was very strong and persevered through extremely difficult times. Through his faithfulness, God restored him much more than what he had before.

Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, The Underdogs
This is one of the greatest underdog stories of the Bible, in my opinion. These three men refused to worship the golden idol set up by King Nebuchadnezzar, knowing that they would be thrown into a blazing hot furnace. The furnace was so hot that the guards that threw them in it died! They were faithful to God and God delivered them from the furnace. They were joined by what looked like a “Son of the gods" who protected them through it all. (Daniel chapter 3) We can all be inspired that even in the most dire of circumstances, God can do anything!

PAUL, THE MAN AGAINST ALL ODDS
Paul, formerly known as Saul, was a huge persecutor of Christians. He constantly threw them in jail or had them killed. Who would have ever thought that God would choose him to be one of the most influential writers of the Bible! He wrote 13 books of the New Testament! When Paul became a Christian, he did remarkable things for the kingdom. He was a church planter and mentor to Timothy. Honestly, there is someone in your life right now that you probably think has no chance to come to Christ. But, God is in the miracle business. If Saul can be converted, anyone can!

JESUS CHRIST, THE SACRIFICIAL LAMB
There is no one more inspiring then Jesus from the Bible. He came to us for a reason, to take our sin upon Himself in order that we could be blameless in God’s eyes. And if that isn’t enough, He was completely sinless! He did not commit one single sin ever. Now He is definitely someone inspiring! He experienced all of the temptations we do. He was tempted in every way and He came out a champion! He laid down His life for us and that, my friends, is the greatest act of love anyone can do. "Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends." (John 15:13) Let us strive to be more like Jesus every day!


CONCLUSION
This is a fraction of the many inspiring characters from the Bible. Others include: Jacob, Joseph, Esther, Joshua, Gideon, Peter, Solomon etc… I encourage you to take some time to reflect on some of the characters that have influenced you and model yourself after them. May God continue to bless you as you live a life worthy of the calling!

This is good reflection. God bless you

With permission from my Bishop, Most Rev. Charles Hammawa of Jalingo Diocese, I Rev. Fr. Emmanuel Atsue (the Rector) want to announce and inform Nigerians and the international community that our diocesan Sacred Heart Minor Seminary was attacked in the early hours of this morning 28/05/2018 at about 12:30am by sophisticated armed Fulani Herdsmen (at least we heard their conversation). They shot sporadically at the Rector's residence, broke window glasses in the process, (litered live bullets were collected by police) windscreen of one of the vehicles belonging to one of the priests, they shot and injured one of the priests Rev. Fr. Cornelius kobah on the leg, beat up Fr. Stephen Bakari. From their conversation we were able to understand that their grievances against us is that the security men in the Seminary have been challenging their decision to graze right inside the Seminary: around the classes, football field, laundry etc. They said even inside the church if they see grass their cows will graze. Normalcy has temporarily been restored thanks to the prompt response from the Nigerian Police, Army, Civil Defense and local vigilantee. All our students are complete, none is missing. Two of them who were showing them the way to the Father's house suffered injuries from the sticks of the herdsmen. I had a meeting with the officials of the Parents Teachers Association PTA and the bishop has equally approved one week break for the seminarians to enable them manage trauma for a while and to show themselves to their parents that they were safe. For now this is the situation. Let us continue to pray for and work for peace in Nigeria.

be consoling yourself with long epistle...Better extend hand of fellowship to know whether baba will give u 2023 presidency

I am more interested in seeing things work in Nigeria like in other developed countries than your 2023 presidency. What we have currently is far below the expectations of any sane person who has been to other countries where things work well. Thank you

zoba88:
This is not a Christmas tree.They are Buharists doing all they can to welcome their leader to Jigawa State.

One word for them

Let's stop deceiving ourselves with this all these pictures of crowd coming to welcome the president or any other person. It is not a sign that the person is doing well esp in African setting. Many of them came for different reasons; some came to catch a glimpse of him, some came to watch display of activities, some came because they are jobless, some came because they were rented, some came because they love him etc
After-all, crowd gather when a criminal is caught? Does it means the crowd is in solidarity with the criminal? People gather for different purposes abeg. Spare us all this crowd this, crowd that. Lets talk about pressing issues that needs 21st century ideas on how to tackle them.

buhariguy:
The young Igbo president will come in 2023.

He said 2019 ogbeni. Don't get it twisted

If it took him six months to appoint them, it might take him one year to reshuffle. That's why he is afraid of reshuffle.

Again? God please save your people

ifyain:
Buhari till 2023. I thought the igbos were on the wrong side of history for not voting the blood sucking vampire.

Exactly what I told my colleague today. Like they foresaw all these

No regard to human life again. Too bad

Euouae:
And you forgot to mention the State Governor. What is he doing? Re the killings in Port-Harcourt curtailed by Buhari? The Gang wars in Lagos and Calabar. The Governor and security institutions should take first blame and responsibility. But its all attached to the President no. The Governor doesnt even come into the picture of the massacres happening there. Can you imagine if such happened in Lagos? Ambode would have been roasted by the Media.

Take Ikorodu Baddoo as a case study. Did you see how the state security outfits mobilized. Thats how it should be.

So who is the GCFR of the country? The last I checked, there is no state policing in place yet. 98% of the blame goes to the President because he has all the power to curb the situation but he chose to do next to nothing

Purewatermeji:
Even though i condemn the killings of innocent people. Where is the evidence that these killings are perpetuated by Fulanis All these lies and media attacks on the Fulani ethnic group will never affect Buhari's chances in 2019. These media attacks are sponsored by the enemies of patriotic Nigerians who are currently enjoying the good works of president Buhari. The whole world knows the Fulanis are peaceful and hardworking people. The killers are cattle rustlers who found their way into Nigeria after the fall of Ghaddafi in Libya. Buhari must complete his second term so igbos can be president in 2023

So they paid you to be posting this same rubbish on all thread about Fulani herdsmen killings. Where is your conscience

Euouae:
Enough is Enough!

This strategy of undermining the tribe and administration of His Excellence, President Mohammadu Buhari (GCFR) cannot hold. Just when he became the President, Every atrocity has been attributed to his tribe suddenly like other regions just started cohabiting with herdsmen.

Politicians just making statements with human life's and only the gullible will not believe this are cheap scores to tarnish the reputation and excellence of His Excellence, President Mohammadu Buhari (GCFR).


They just still be saddened that Buhari will win in 2019 and perpetrators of evil shall be brought down. Its just a matter of time.


Fulani herdsmen just suddenly get attributed to every killings, robbery, rape and all sought of ills.

Wake-up! Its another Boko-Haram in disguise. Paid groups wrecking havocs

You guys don't have shame. OK, let's even assume that they are paid groups wrecking Havocs as you alleged, what drastic measures has your god in Aso rock taken to curb the situation? Is he even aware of happenings around the nation. The country is in a sorry state now. Save us this trash

Purewatermeji:

So those herdsmen arrested recently with guns and weapons are also from Libya? Fear God

Biety:
Stupid US has no moral ground to talk about human rights when it is commiting the biggest crime in the world today.
No evil is greater than destablising a sovereign country by trying to impeach an elected president and sponsoring different terror groups.
No evil is greater than attacking the army of a country who are trying to flush out sponsored terrorists from their country.
These are deeds of US in syria and other middle east countries today.
The evil being commited in Nigeria today is nothing when compared to the ones satanic US and its evil allies are commiting all over the world.
US doesn't really care about you, all she is after is her interests.

You call US 'stupid'.....If they are stupid as you alleged, why are you people running to them for aid and arms?

Antoeni:
Buhari as an honest man who does not prevaricate has only given a voice to a glaringly challenge which others know but too afraid to mouth it because of political expediency.

If he is an honest man, why didn't he speak to Commonwealth business forum how his lazy son crashed a power bike and how he was flown abroad free

Princeofnigeria:

buhariguy:
because idiotic pigs of Biafra terrorist group are illiterate, they don't know how government function,
It seems everything this brilliant president does is alien to PDP and idiotic pigs of Biafra.

Presidency responded to Ambode's tweet to set the record straight, and you are here shouting Biafra. You need to grow up and reason like an adult for once

paxonel:
if you are inspired, may be you should start relocate to the north and start preaching christianity to the face of boko haram, let's see what will happen

Maybe you need to pick up a dictionary and find out what it means for someone to be 'inspired'

sweetgala:
Stop claiming you are inspired that is a lie, it is just another issue of using someone else's suffering for a ethno religious /political point.

You don't care about her neither does than den of foxes called CAN who have never done anything reasonable to promote the teachings of Christ in Nigeria

I salute her courage it is indeed noble however she must be willing to bear the cross without pity if she remains true to her cause and dies her reward is with her maker

Respect my opinion. If I am inspired by her faith, its my decision. What inspires me may not be what inspires you. We are different individuals and operate at different levels of faith.

paxonel:
Op, there are other ways Leah sharibu would have done it and set herself free from captivity and still remain a christian which would have been wiser than her inspiring christians who are observing the situation at the expense of her freedom and liberty.

Denying Islam in the presence of her captors who want her to change her faith to Islam for her freedom is not necessary.
The decision will never inspire christians in anyway, Though they can pretend to be inspired

I guess because she is still a child, she cannot think of any other way, so she remains in captivity(hopefully, God may touch her captors to release her)

An adult christian is not expected to be childish like that

Are you a Christian? I doubt anyway. Leave the girl to her God. She inspired me and a whole lot Christians

buhariguy:
No ransom was paid,

If you listen to Nicolas on this morning on nta,
He said the dapchi girl's were returned base on the outstanding agreement of the ongoing negotiation before.

Which the boko haram wanted to breached.

NTA kwa? Lol

So NTA is your news channel. No wonder

plessis:
We need to do something about the desperation of the average igboman.

We cannot continue to lose more sons for the sake of building mansions in the village.

Its tiring. Skull mining too. In fact, skull mining is worse

GavelSlam:

I hate hypocrites.

For years there have been cases of ballot snatching, in fact killings at polling booths would not be major news as it has been recorded several. The question is, why hasn't it ever pricked the conscience of Charly boy?

Ogbeni face front. At least he is protesting underage voting which is a serious electoral offence. Why not start your own protest of other electoral offences you mentioned?

Threebear:
Nwanna abu mu Nwafo igbo ka gi.

What is this one saying. Did I ask you your tribe. I don't understand Igbo abeg

Threebear:
When you realize 500k is some people's recharge card money and 500k is also the reason one igbo man put otapiapia in his brother's land
This life nawa.

....And also the reason your brother in Ogun state skull mine for ordinary 50k
