Religion / 5 Ways To Be More Than A Sunday Christian by Chikexe: 8:53am On Jun 24, 2018
That temporary little change of plans changed everything, ourselves included. The mission field had slipped in under our feet. No longer could we talk about mission projects and ministry opportunities as a distant concept. No longer could we just go about our daily life unware. Christian living started to look less and less like Sunday morning attendance with a topping of Bible studies on plush couches.

Our home became a neighborhood center that year, one that now has kids sprawled across our front porch with hot Cheetos and sticky juice boxes. Bikes and candy wrappers and missing flip-flops tend to litter that front yard, the place where no grass dare grow for fear of being trampled.

And here, with a front yard for a sanctuary and a muddied porch for a pulpit, God began teaching us to live out our faith in the everyday.
Here, He’s been showing us how Christian living means integrating our daily life with divine purposes. It calls us to no longer compartmentalize the sacred and the secular, but to usher in God’s authority to the mundane and mess of our everydays.

It prompts us to believe that “being used by God” isn’t so much about what we do. No, thankfully, it’s about our identity in Jesus Christ and the degree to which we surrender our everything to His purposes – the car pool, the play dates, the front porches, our homes, our families, our schedules and everything in between.

Certainly, it’s common, even easy, to talk about God among pews and worship music. It’s acceptable to pray quietly. It’s natural to share our faith and quote Scripture with Bibles in our hands and stained glass at our backs.

Then Monday morning buzzes in with the 6:00am alarm, and the music and the prayers and the sermon notes start to fade slightly. How can a sacred mission be part of the mundane of Monday mornings? Where is a holy purpose in the dirt and the daily routine?

Here are 5 suggestions for finding and embracing the everyday divine, every single day:

1. Embrace your identity – Living with a divine mission isn’t just for the pastors or the missionaries. Instead, begin to accept your day job and your career as a means by which God can engage your world. Maybe you are a child of God who teaches or a Christian who does taxes for people or a Jesus-follower who is raising kids.

Your job description is a gateway to loving and blessing a unique blend of people, all close to God’s heart. Lay those work hours out before Him and see how He moves in your day.


2. Pray for people – It sounds simple but it requires your heart. When you are sitting at the park or wandering through the produce section or prepping for a meeting at work, spend time intentionally praying for the people in your path.

After all, of all the people in the world, those individuals are crossing paths with you today. Talk to God about that. What may be going on in their lives? How can you open your life to them? Pray for God to give you eyes to see them as He does.


3. Change your perspective on home – Our homes are the most natural extension of ourselves. May you see your home as a place of gathering and blessing, a resource that God can use to minister to others in the everyday of living.

Often in Western mindsets, our homes are seen only as our own and our private sanctuaries. While a place to rest is necessary at times, this mentality keeps ministry and living out our faith at arm’s length, rather than in the casual, common places of our daily life. Open your door. Don’t apologize for the mess – just welcome people and share the life God’s given you.

4. Practice empathy everyday – Life can be complex with daily headlines and news stories that make us want to scroll and stroll by rather than choosing to enter into someone’s pain.

But integrating our faith with our everyday means caring deeply about our present world and the people in it, letting reality settle in a bit and affect our prayers, our routine, our priorities. Be aware and care. May your prayers be fueled with God’s perspective and your heart be willing to weep over your Lazaruses.


5. Love people – I’ve come to understand in greater depths the cost of really loving someone while living here in this neighborhood. Relationships do not come with manuals or easy exits. They get unbelievably messy. But God loves relationships, and He created a beautifully mind-blowing relationship within His own person – the Trinity.

He routinely uses people to speak into my life, and He especially uses the black-eyed, band-aid-begging kids on this street to shape my heart. That’s divine, and it can happen everyday. So, share life with others in meaningful ways in the mundane as well as the special moments. Take risks and be vulnerable with those closest to you. Make new friends. Choose to make your richest investments of time, energy, attention, and resources into the eternal souls around you.

May your days be divine, filled with glimpse of His purpose and plans for your life. May He be near on this day and everyday.

Celebrities / Comedian Bovi Pens Long Heartfelt Message To Late Ras Kimono by Chikexe: 6:32pm On Jun 11, 2018
The comedian wrote

"Dear legend, thank you for the impact you made on earth. If you don’t mind, i have some messages I’d like you to deliver in the great beyond. Please tell Bob Marley that many of us are still trapped in mental slavery. And the atomic energy he said we shouldn’t fear for has been produced by many countries. But as you arrive at the gates of eternity, two of the worlds most erratic leaders will be meeting in Singapore to discuss denuclearization. Tell M.K.O. that finally, 25 years after he won the freest and fairest elections ever conducted in our country, he has finally been recognized and honored. Inform him that sadly though, we are not as unanimous in our choice of candidates like his time. We now choose based on several sentiments like, religion, tribe and region. Not just the masses but even the political class. Tell him unlike his time, two Muslims can’t run on the same ticket ; that’s for example. Also no matter how qualified a candidate is, if it is not his regions “turn”, we would rather go with another candidate. Tell him it is not gazetted. It’s just an unwritten code.
Please Ras Kimono, tell baba Fela that his music lives on and many have been inspired by his works. Sadly, tell him everything he complained about is still the same.
Tell Bola Ige that his murder case has been reopened alongside that of Dikibo. But tell funsho Williams and Alfred rewane that we don’t know when theirs will be reopened.
Tell Gani to please accept his posthumous honor. Also tell him that one of his protégés, Festus Keyamo is now a politician. But don’t tell him who his boss is o. He will simply not understand.
Tell Dora Akunliyi that another intelligent woman is putting us on the world map by propagating feminism. But while we are open to change, she’s preaching new methods that erode some of our cultural practices and cosmopolitan rituals.
Tell Awolowo, Ojukwu and Okadigbo that Buhari is president but before they react, quickly add that he was elected this time. But please don’t let Fela hear. He will simply not understand.
Finally on a personal note, tell my mother that Everything she said was true. She will understand"

Politics / Governor Ambode Declares June 12 As Public Holiday In Lagos State by Chikexe: 5:38am On Jun 10, 2018
Lagos State Government has declared Tuesday, June 12, 2018, as a public holiday in commemoration of the 25th anniversary of the annulled 1993 Presidential elections adjudged to be have won by the late Moshood Abiola.



Governor Akinwunmi Ambode, in a statement signed by the Secretary to the State Government, Tunji Bello on Saturday, said the significance of June 12, 1993 elections, seen as the freest and fairest in the history of Nigeria, would always be a reference point by the Lagos State Government.  Ambode also commended President Buhari’s recent declaration of June as the new Democracy Day.



This, he said, would forever ensure that Chief MKO Abiola and other martyrs of democracy who laid down their lives in the struggle to entrench good governance did not do so vain.

“We want to commend and applaud Mr President, Muhammadu Buhari for deeming it fit finally against all odds from all other past presidents that 25 years after, we are able to now celebrate our own Democracy Day and also declare that the real winner of 1993 June 12 Presidential election was actually our own MKO Abiola. No matter how long you try to hide history, history will always reveal itself with a true platform. So, we know that is one very important singular step as we go forward to build an enduring democracy,” he said.

The governor added that June 12 is not just a day to remember in Lagos State, it is a rallying point for those of in service to continuously strive to entrench true democracy and good governance which are the ideals of Chief MKO Abiola.
