Me sef am paying people to do my work, stress my brother but reach let me set you in the right path is it coding ?

Good afternoon boss.

I got through to the jobberman event link you posted today, and I must acknowledge that the different sessions held were really enlightening.

I waited eagerly for your session, but unfortunately, you weren't given enough time to really explain your slides.

Sir, will it possible to send the slides via mail to me? Please.

Thank you for your insightful posts here on Nairaland. God bless you.

You have a strong intercessory calling upon you.

You are an important end-time soldier for God's army in this last days.

Don't give up on your fasting and prayers. They are the most important tools in your arsenal. An intercessor is near useless without them.

Every minister has his/her own unique process to becoming the very person God has ordained him to be. This is yours; don't go ahead of God.

Selflessness and Compassion are the true hallmarks of an intercessor. It's the reason why they can pray for hours for others. Clearly, you have it else God wouldn't have given you this ministry.

Nevertheless, souls are tied to you fulfilling ministry. You must not disappoint them or God. Ask God to show you the ministry/church where you will be trained to becoming what He has envisioned you to be. Please, this is very important.

Intercessory ministry trives on purity. Others might sin and get away with it, but you won't because of the calling upon your life.

Build an intimate relationship with the Holy Spirit. It's clearly lacking in your story. It's the reason God keeps communicating with you via your dreams. It's a level you must surpass.

God bless you for sharing your story with us.

Please, continue.

the flex cable might be shaking or disconnected

Thanks.

I initially thought that I would have to fix/change the screen.

So, what will it cost to get the cable connected again, sir?

Good morning.

Please, I just woke this morning to try and use my laptop only to find the screen flickering after turning it on.

What could be wrong?

Tonnyray:
Thanks bro. I've been where you are so it just might be pretty easy drop my take on this. Permit me refer to my earlier quotes:

The difference is, in this case you're the one being sought out not the other way around. The resultant effect remains the same though: distraction from purpose. The answer to your questions will always reside in you. What exactly do YOU want? If sex (I very much doubt it from your tone) her rose petals are already dripping for you. You clearly stated you don't want to date. See bro, the biggest mistake we make is not wanting to hurt these females with the truth only for us to get burnt. And yes we most times always get burnt using this chivalrous format. The only way to win with women is to have a definite stand and be unflinching in your stand and resolve. You're lucky this is happening now on this scale where not much is at stake but trust me it is preparing you for bigger stages in life where a whole lot more will be at stake. Never let your dick control you in your dealings with them. Never let even your heart get the better of you in your dealings with them. And as you might already know concerning my inclinations, never go all out to hurt anyone either. But if by reason of your logical stance anyone gets her feelings hurt or ego bruised na her wahala be rat.

Lest I forget, on the matter of submission to authority, be very sure you are not insubordinate by nature. Very important. Very few things can mess you up in life faster than that. From the scenario you painted I am 95% sure those ladies just want every male around them pussywhipped into obeisance but it would be gross injustice to you if you got issues along this line and it's not quickly addressed. The best way to know however is to engage worthwhile male mentors and to check yourself if there's an established pattern of clashes with authority.
If there are any further questions or need for clarification I'm at your service bro.
One love.

Thank you sir for this awesome submission...

Truly, I like this girl and she won't be the first to come to me first as regards relationships. This has been the pattern all my life, including my friends — they always come to me first. This way, I get to choose if I want you or not. It's just that her's has been unusually aggressive.

After many trials and errors, I have finally found my purpose and it requires purity if I want to do well. It's just that this particular girl can be very strongly opinionated yet has a very low mental strength. She has contemplated suicide on few occasions, (and she isn't lying. I have been witness to such depressing times for her) from what she has told me. She cries easily and all of those annoying womanly stuff. She isn't tough and I fear what my rejection or eventual break-up will do to her.

She isn't stopping in her resolve to get me — it's been nine months already — and yet I know I will break the relationship if it ever gets to that 'cos I don't want sex, neither do I allow emotional bonds with people, generally, to last too long. You are right in saying that I should stand my ground; but what about the consequences?

I can't allow the one female leader in that church on my side now — at least until I get to turn things around with the rest — to turn against me now that my stance on being left alone is misunderstood for being rebellious.

About the other matter: no, I am not against authority. I understand hierarchy and how it works. It's just that they expect everyone to go in one direction at all times regardless of personality differences, and that won't work with me.

Perhaps, quotes of wisdom or how you have gone around situations like this, without losing self worth, will be greatly appreciated. These women are extremely important to expressing my gifts in that assembly.

Thanks.

Good morning folks. I am always in awe of the words of wisdom that men who have been in the field put out here near every single day — save for the few times distractions come in. You guys have been a blessing to many of us who just come in here to read — and if we're registered members — and click the "like" button.

I say a big thank you to everyone who has genuinely taken his time to teach men and boys true masculinity. Thank you so much.

Now, I don't usually bring my personal dealings to public, but in this case, I might have to compromise this one time.

As much as the red pill is amoral; I am someone that follows the path of Tonnyray, in that, I have a different perspective on the application of the redpill.

I have been soaking these pills since the inception of this thread, and while I didn't really have a platform to display what I knew, I had no idea that my mind was slowly being "renewed."

I am in my second year. In my first, I barely played around with girls, and generally avoided them. But not too long ago, I changed Church and started attending this student fellowship. I didn't like it at first, but I slowly grew my tolerance level and just did my thing. I noticed they had a lot of female leaders, and this was something that had never happened to me before, but I adapted quickly.

Like I said, I did my thing. I flowed more with the guys more, spoke little with the females and just generally avoided trouble.

Until recently, when I heard from my group leader that people (the female leaders including the Branch Pastor) were complaining about me. I supposedly have issues with submitting to authority; poor response and the fact that my words were never said in the right tone.

Her accusations shocked me but I overlooked them at first, until I noticed that the female leaders I played and joked started changing their approach towards me. They became harsher and more often than not, we tend to clash these days.

I really don't like that because I know just how dramatic women can be, especially when they know they can seem to get their way with me. They want me to bend to their whims, obviously, but that's not my person. I am a very agreeable person and most time, very sacrificial so long it involves the church, but other than that...it has to be my way. No negotiations. They seem to hate that.

Now, there are reasons why I can't leave this church, but my first question is how to get around authoritative female leaders with less friction? This is very important.

My second question has to do with my cell leader who invited me to the church and has been on my neck ever since. I have never seen such an aggressive green light signaling before in my life. She would force herself to dance with me; defend me on numerous occasions, even to the displeasure of our leaders; use my personal items such as handkerchiefs and others things time won't let me mention.

The act that truly got was after a particular vigil, work was still ongoing in church, so there was limited space to lay down and sleep. Naturally, spaces were divided to boys and girls, yet she left her female end and moved over to my space, and laid next to me...

My residential Pastor refused vehemently and called her out. She was to move over, but she refused saying that she had a phobia with sleeping in the middle of people. All said and good, oya move over to the end of the female line, she said no. She started crying and saying that no one likes to hear her point of view.

It was a serious affair that early morning, as none of the two women wanted to bend to the other. It was until this girl took her bag and wanted to risk her life to return home in the dead of the night that she was finally allowed to do her thing.

I was told to face the other direction while she slept. I did, but later changed my body position as anyone would while sleeping. Only for me to realize not long after that she was slowly moving her butt to touch my body. Now this girl was attractive — tall with long legs, sizeable bust, thick lips, and a moderate ass, just the way I like my girls —, so I tried hard to control myself. But she wouldn't stop until her butt was firmly glued to my Johnson. How I didn't go beyond half-mast that day was a miracle. But this was the height of it and I intentionally withdrew from her for a long time as I didn't know what she saw in me.

I am a regular joe, fairly tall, a good writer and has the voice of a Light Tenor. That's it. Yet, this girl has been acting like she wants to get Will Smith.

I was at a her place two days ago for church discussion, but she quickly used that opportunity to start her shenanigans again. As much as I like her, I don't want to date anyone now, but I do not want to lose the usefulness that comes with having her obsessed with me. How do I go about this?

MJBOLT:

When Nicolette Shea posted on her Twitter account that she is top .03% on Onlyfans, the urge to continue to waste my time and resources chasing women and subscribing to pornographic content died instantly.

In that moment, I couldn't be more ashamed of myself.

The decision was sealed when she posted a photo of her with engineers on a site she owned through money from foolish simps who would prefer to throw away their money just to see a woman play with her body parts.

Me wey never buy car dey help somebody else buy property for US. My Mumu don do abeg!

.... Months ago, I watched a detailed video by Joseph Okechukwu, explaining how this present Pope will bring about the one world religion. He mentioned a few big pastors who were pentecostals and had reunited with the Catholic Church, claiming that they were now one.

Meanwhile, it wasn't long before then that the Pope had said that Islam and Christianity were one and that we served the same God. These Pentecostal pastors knew that, but they were all too excited that the Pope had invited them to sign the agreement or whatever, in the Vatican.

I literally watched Pastor Kenneth Copeland nearly jumping for Joy as he shared a live video stream he was having with the Pope with his congregation when he was invited. I couldn't be more disappointed when I saw someone I respected so much do this.

I mean, how could he? Couldn't he see what everyone saw? Couldn't he have asked the Holy Spirit before signing such an agreement? Was he still in tune with God if he could sign such an agreement?

I was disappointed but more worried because Kennett Copeland is well respected in America, especially among conservative America. He is not in Graham's level, but still very close and yet, he fell. Sort of, anyway.

Another famous Nigerian Preacher was mentioned but I will skip that.

My main crust is what I watched on Marcus Rogers's channel yesterday, concerning what Steve Harvey said. He reiterated what the Pope said and went further to call this Union, Chrislam

How disgusting?

He went ahead to say that We can serve God through different ways. Which is a lie from the pit of Hell! Jesus is the only way!

Seriously, things are happening and has been happening. It's just the speed that scares me.

Pastors are in on this and now Celebrities, who are supposedly Christians, carrying the same message too.

Lord have Mercy!

Let's be very vigilant and listen carefully now to what our Preachers say on the altar. The day any Preacher starts mentioning other ways to Heaven, that will be my last day in such an assembly.

Let's be sober and vigilant! Please oh!

And the LGBTQ call for protection is back with a bang in Baba's first day in office.

The speed in which prophecies are happening is scary these days.

And oh, as for the confusing prophecies of Trump winning the election or not. It's not confusing at all.

He actually won the election but his seat was stolen by someone else, which is a scary thought because God actually allowed this to happen.

No doubt we're in the end times and I won't be surprised with more insane legislations that will be coming in the next few months. These people mean business hence we shouldn't be too comfortable in Zion.

Let's keep praying and fellowshipping with His Spirit.

God be with us all.

So for the uncivilized action of one man, you term every Black Man an Ape?
How are you any different from him?

I want to talk about some of our beloved Christian artistes.

There was a time I got "bored" of some of the usual songs we tend to hear everyday and decided to look into more Christian Music genres. I found Christian Rap and Rock, and began listening to them.

It was cool at first, I mean the lyrics were really good and they flowed well; some were even gotten from scriptures too but I began to notice somethings about the singers. I noticed they wore earrings for the men, made their hair and all that, in short, there was hardly any difference between these rappers who sang for the church and those in the world.

How about the Christian Rock? Those ones looked exactly the same and moved and acted exactly as those worldly rockstars especially when performing live. The only difference between them was their lyrics, nothing else.

At first I ignored this and pushed my findings aside, but the more I understood "the intent of the heart", the more my spirit became restless. I eventually put these songs asides no matter how "good" they felt.

It wasn't so long ago some Christians started complaining of Christian singers copying the beats and structure of music of worldly singers, so it wasn't surprising when interviews were shown of some of these singers saying that they didn't see themselves as Christian Music Artistes or some of them beating around the bush when such questions were asked.

A few of these singers went as far as featuring some of these worldly stars in their songs and videos, and some now dress indecently while singing or ministering.

So, please, Brethren, we must learn to sieve the chaff from the wheat and separate pretenders from the real singers. A lot of Christian singers are in for the money and will do anything to get the approval of the world rather than actual Christians.

Be careful of the Christian songs you listen or choir ministration. If you are feeling the wrong heat inside of you, and your eyes measuring every curve and line in whoever is singing or minsitering, please you should retrace your steps and leave such gatherings as fast as you can.

Music is extremely powerful, very powerful that we shouldn't be careless about it.

May God bless His word.

Shout out to everyone waiting on the Lord in a fast in the days of this month. God will answer every one of our demands speedily. Amen.

God bless you, JourneytoEl for those Spirit-filled messages.

The wave of lust in the church these days is something else. And I mean in every church — doesn't matter if it's the old generation with their dress code or the new generation with their freedom of attire as long as it's decent — all are being attacked by this, simply because humans make up the church and not the building; therefore, as long as we have fleshly desires, no one is who isn't under the Anointing is safe from these machinations.

I remember back then when my Dad would force us to go one of those SU churches, especially their youth conference around summer, sometimes we would stay in the hostel available and Lord knows that I realized that there weren't much difference between them and those youths in the world.

What disgust me the most were their pretence and their ability to put up appearances when they were being watched or in the congregation. They were really good at it especially those in the senior years in secondary school and above.

Another instance was when we went for a particular job workshop sponsored by my place of work at the time. The event which was largely sponsored by top members of the church made it possible for the event to take place in the sizeable church building. So I was expecting a good representation of God's image there, but I was disappointed.

The ushers who were workers in the church, mostly females, dressed well, looked good, but it was one of those attires that flattered to deceive. All of their physical assets poured into their suits, it was impossible not to notice them. Definitely, I would have become a member of that church if I lived close to the place but that is not the right way to attract people to the church.

They were restless, always had a reason to move about, it was impossible not to notice them. And it's the same thing with where I currently worship, not in the same frequency and number as far as service units goes, but for normal members; forget it. Concentrating when dancing can be really tough so I usually look away or close my eyes.

I don't believe for a second they don't know what they're doing. They look themselves in the mirror before leaving home but have no problems arousing lustful thoughts in unguarded minds because they want to feel good doing so.

It wasn't as bad as this before but now, people have forgotten how to be ashamed and what is the result of this? Certain churches are now known for the distractions caused by some of their members than for the word of God being preached there.

You ask many youths today, they tell you that if you need a girl, go to certain churches and boasts are being made by many guys of conquering some of these SU girls.

People are no longer ashamed of sharing some of the abominable practises they carried out right in the presence of God. Married or single, it doesn't matter. Shame has left a lot of Christians today and when these things are pointed out, they resort to the scripture that God looks at the heart and not the outward appearance of man.

But what about intent, which is what manifests in the actions that we undertake? They usually have no answers to that.

Things are happening and it's actually becoming easier to lose a new convert in the church than outside in the world.

But there's hope for those who truly fear their God. We should be mindful of the vices of the devil (I have mentioned how to go about this scenario in one of my earlier posts here).

We must fear God and be mindful of our intentions before doing anything. It's a must.

God bless us all.

Lol. They are trying to silence every big conservative account and demonizing other platforms that they are moving into.

Google just removed Parler app from their play store and I am sure Apple will follow too. Youtube hides channels from view and has been doing that for a while now. I expect Marcus Rogers's account and others like him to be suspended on YouTube soon.

Meanwhile tyrannical rulers like Ayatollah's account is untouched. My Twitter home page rarely gets updated anymore, and people are losing followers like crazy.

The control is coming and it will only get worse. They will fully come for Christians soon. The only person that tried to check them has been forcefully pushed out.

I won't be surprised if this forum follows as well. The hate for us is real.

We all should be careful because if you don't already know, we're being monitored. Careful what you post online please, especially your personal info.

As long as God lives, we will find a way around this.

God bless us all.

blinking001:
Jesus reigns and God the father remains supreme.
Btw how can a young man be this contented having an Evening Newspaper as his girl? Things are indeed happening in this Naija. Please stop this display of stupidity already.

Honestly, the thing is becoming rampant. Men are throwing their dignity to the mud. Such a shame.

Anyways, this kind of thing always end in tears.

Mynd44, Dominique, OAM4J your help is needed here. Several monikers are busy derailing this thread. A clean up is highly needed.

... Well, my point in this exchange that has consumed a few pages here is that no matter how we hear from God or what He shows us, we should always learn not to force any word of knowledge or vision on anyone or any group of people. No one likes to be forced to accept anything no matter how truthful or even life-saving it might turn out to be.

Be like the prophets of old; speak what God has sent you to say and leave the people to accept or reject the prophecies or warnings. If God could do that to the Israelites, then we shouldn't have a problem doing that. This is because God gave us freewill and He respects that.

Now about the topic:

Everyone's Christian Life is different, which is why the word of God says that we should work out our own Salvation with Fear and Trembling.

I used to worship football a few years back. All I could think of was returning home to watch my favorite team play and since my team usually played on Sundays since they were now competing in the lower tier of European football, I always wanted to be home before 1:30pm.

Since church was in another state( Ota), whenever there was traffic, I would become restless and most times, angry. Should we lose as my team tends to do, I would be so depressed, I would even lose appetite. When we win, I felt like on top of the world. I was worshipping this game and I didn't know.

When I realized how thing has consumed my thoughts, I knew I had to do something. Breaking away from this was one of the most difficult thing I had ever broken away from. Masturbation was far more easier. I am not bluffing here.

Whenever I come online, I see mentions from fellow fans, and if you go to such threads on this forum, you will see people who are far worse than I was then. Go to Reddit and you will see people in severe bondage under this spirit. And the sad thing is that even pastors are not left out.

This is one of the reasons I had to put away my other moniker for now. Football worship is something else but I broke away from it by His Grace because it was an idol in my life.

I was also obsessed with checking out my face every time I looked into a mirror. I always found a reason to check out how handsome I was, how irresistible how I was and how many stares I would get that day. Lol. I was obsessed with my own beauty. And of course, I would be on the lookout on who seem to look at me more than usual, especially when in church. Whatever was being preached that day passed me by, until I was truly saved, read a few books and realized my mistakes.

Now for others, it might not be football but basketball or cricket or American football which is like a tradition over there or baseball. Even desiring fellowship with your fellow guys all of the time can be an idol as well. So, this idol thing is peculiar to each person and they can be more than one in a person's life.

I have been to most churches in my short time on Earth and except God specifically tells me that I should stay in some of these churches with man-made doctrines, I won't. What I witnessed there no be here; most folks there have become so focused on outward appearance that their hearts are no in no way different from people that they condemn. Most not all please.

I don't support immorality but if your heart is truly sanctified and you seek the word of knowledge, noticing what is competing with God in your life shouldn't be hard. For me now, I am still struggling with my phone as an idol but I am working on it.

So once again, what is an idol is peculiar to each person so one vision doesn't cut it for all. I mean what about women who are completely SU but have other idols in their lives?

Anyways, I believe that word of knowledge should be for us to check what might be an idol in our lives as we end the year. That word wasn't a mistake. It might not be earrings or jewelleries or braiding of hair but something else we might not even be conscious of, hence the instructions to pray.

Please, Please, and Please, let's learn to leave ego aside and let the word of God prevail. This thread is for our edification so Brother Noble, if you have something about sports to tell us, please do and care less about what people say. A prophet doesn't care for validation or people's acceptance as he will report to God and not to men. Please, carry out the assignment God has given you with Fear and Trembling.

I appreciate everyone who has contributed to this, Changeinchrist and others. God bless us all.

Merry Christmas to everyone.

JourneytoEL:
the bible says don't be ignorant of the devices of the enemy. That ignorance is what has cost the church today to be lukewarm and leading many believers to hell. it isn't every book i read, i only read those by tested and trusted Christians. The book i mentioned is a deliverance manual. I don't read demonic books like book of moses, encyclopedia of demons bla bla bla. that is the kind of knowledge the verse is referring to. To each his own. It is the devil's ultimate plan to make Christians ignorant, that is why occultists operate in secret societies. The average Christian will keep saying why do i need knowledge on warfare while these occultists spend their time pulling down the church leaders through projected lust, greed, malice and gossip. You are free to remain ignorant, but whenever you wake up please stick solely to Christian literature not demonic inspired books.

My sister. Please, it's fine. I understand the need to reply certain funny remarks here but you know they are mainly said out of ignorance. Nothing more.

This same argument destroyed another thread started by a man of God — EnthronedbyGod. Supposed Christians felt Baba was dwelling on the side of the kingdom of Darkness too much, when he should be "edifying" them and the ironic part of it all was a lot of such folks were commenters in this same thread.

That particular fact was what hurt me even more.

The books I have read concerning how the devil operates is part of the revelation I have received that has made me understand the near repeated process whereby I always nearly fall back into sin, after repentance. It was like a cycle until I understood the How.

There's the why of things, the way out, and the "How." Most Christians don't know the "How" of the vices of the devil and that's why he has been very successful in tainting Christianity today.

The world is turning upside down, souls are being lost and the church is getting polluted by the day.

Just a while ago, I heard that Biden intends to or will pick a transgender as secretary of Education. I'm not sure people know what that means as it was well known that before Biden "supposedly" won the election, these LGBTQ folks demanded that Christian colleges should be stripped of their accreditation. Having one of them in such a position is catastrophe of Epic proportions as people are so easily Influenced, it will only take a while before such legislations for folks like them pick up in this part of the world.

But as usual, most Christians don't see this. Very few receive revelations from God and if they have read some of these books, they would have since known the plans of the devil. But no, they will argue that all they need is in the Bible, which is true.

The Bible empowers us, edifies us and gives credence to what the devil is currently planning but the details of his plans are not there. Hence, why God gives these revelations to certain people to warn us of what's coming ahead of time.

These warnings could be from prophets, every day Christians like us, or people whom God has personally rescued from working for the Devil, in a bid to expose him.

But a lot of Christians are spiritually blind and deaf and most especially, they love to react — to defend, rather than attack first. This strategy has caused a lot of damage and will continue to if the church keep on refusing to recognize the deliverance section of the church.

It is wisdom to know what your enemy is planning ahead of time, rather than try to react to him on the day of battle after he must have done his homework.

"My people are destroyed for lack of Knowledge."

So please sister, don't get drawn to endless banter, lest we might continue the works of those agents of Darkness who have gone quiet now.

God bless you.

Hello folks.

My dell inspiron laptop toggle keys (all the keys above the keyboard layout) will just turn on at the same time and the keyboard will start Typing on its own.

Sometimes, the screen will freeze and I will have to start the system all over again.

I know my battery is bad and needs to be changed but I don't think this is the cause as I know folks with similar battery condition and their laptop don't behave that way.

I'd like to know what could be behind and the possible fix. Thanks.

ojaysam25:

Done.....Thank you sir... I don't know what is wrong with my mail I try responding but could'nt though I saw yours...i will pray those prayer tonight and definitely attend Shiloh as I have nothing to lose. When I sort my mail there is something I would love to discuss with you privately....thank you very much sir....

I am glad you got the prayers and I'm happy that you intend to attend Shiloh as well.

The moment we decide to follow Christ, it's becomes war between our flesh and the spirit for dominance. This is a battle that will last till we leave this world so long we are still for Christ.

Hence, we must be determined to win everytime via His help and not our strength.

I will be expecting your message after you've solved your mail issues. God bless you

ojaysam25:
Yes o.thank you sir.

Sent!
You can edit my mail as well as yours too.

ojaysam25:

I don't know...I try sending the mail severally but it is not working...

That's odd.

If you have another email address, try using that to send the message then.

Or you can drop your mail and I will do the sending.

The Devil is a liar.

ojaysam25:

How on earth did I miss This....very insightfull thank you sir....I use to think I am alone on this, especially been uncomfortable around women...I mostly patronize brothels and runs girls....but always feel uncomfortable with normal girls....I have never been in a normal relationship before....or had a feeling for a girl all I was interested in is sex...thank you bro, my eyes of understanding is now open thanks to this thread...I mostly visited the sport section on NL I don't know how I got here. it is not easy but I have been chaste for more than two months now...
I sent you a pm sir...thank you.

Exactly bro, it took me years before I could be in any reasonable relationship and I used my two hands to destroy the last I was in. After a while, the woman started to irritate me, I didn't want to see her again, didn't want to be with her.

It's funny how something we trivialize (Masturbation) can control so much of our lives.

I didn't see your PM even if Nairaland notified that you sent one.



The moment you have done so, let me know so that I can clean my mail off.

You're welcome Sir.

Hello Children of Light, How is it going?

I am so glad that we all made it to the Last Month of a year that has been so plagued with death that it's difficult to find anyone who hasn't mourn for someone close or on behalf of a friend who lost someone to the cold hands of death.

The good news is that we are here today and it's by His Grace alone. Nothing else.

When my ex died this year, I didn't believe it. I thought it was just an expensive joke when I was notified. But it wasn't.

How could someone who had brothers in high places, one of whom has a big ministry in Abuja died from what killed her? She was staying with her elder sister and I can tell you that her sister's husband was loaded.

She was classy, distinguished and a level above everyone at where we both worked. Her diction was impeccable. When she speaks, it's as if she was teaching you how to do communicate; she was very intimidating and had the height to go with her attitude.

Yet she died from complications of a fibroid surgery after weeks of undergoing it. She never told me she had it all through our time together, but yet her influence and family wealth couldn't save her from the clutches of death. The news was devastating to me.

Yesterday, My mum was also in similar mood when she was notified that the landlord of her business centre had gone to be with the Lord. Mehn, she is still crying as she can't comprehend how someone with many assets could join the Lord from an unknown sickness.

But he did.

So my exhortation to us all is that we must use our time on this earth judiciously while we still can. We must bring glory to God in everything we do and act we carry out. The world must see God in us. And the only way to effectively carry this out is by coming to understand that we are the bride of Christ and as such, that love between a couple connected together with Love must show in our lives.

We must come to an understanding that we love God so much that we don't want to hurt him by sinning. We don't want to nail Jesus to the cross all over again when we return to our vomit.

My Bishop will often say that the work of Christ is his heartbeat. He breathes and lives Christ. Baba didn't care if his wife heard him or not; he spoke his mind. Then I wasn't comfortable with that statement as I thought he was embarrassing his wife but now I know that nothing compares to being in perfect harmony with the King of Kings.

Matthew 6:33 sums this all up. Seeking the Kingdom of God comes above every other thing. Nothing, absolutely nothing, must come before our love with Him just as absolutely nothing can come between us and His love. Love is an action; let's prove our Love and devotion to Him with our works.

Finally, Romans 6:1 says that we can't continue in sin that His Grace will abound. It's not possible. It's not luck that you are still alive despite being in sin, it's by His Grace and once He withdraws that. It's Game over.

Please, if you are still indulging in one secret sin or you do yours openly, please turn to Christ before His Grace is withdrawn. He is the one saving you from the cold hands of Death, once He leaves you to your lust, you're time on earth is on a countdown. Nothing can save you when Death comes, only the Man who has defeated death and made an open shame of principalities and powers, can save you.

Come to Jesus today and receive life, even more abundantly.

God bless us all.

Happy New Month to everyone once again.

Anas09:

The Pastor knows him, but he doesn't know we prayed for him. because, this present pastor was just newly posted to our branch then.
But, I will go to him and let him know we prayed for him so that he will take him more seriously

God bless you brother.

Yeah, that's true. I keep forgetting that they reshuffle pastoral appointments in our church a lot.

Since he got saved because of the prayer of church members and you have witnesses to confirm that, the pastor will certainly take it up.

He needs a place to lay his head for the moment; shelter is often underrated.

It could be a single room apartment; paid for six months at first, if such is allowed in your state though.

And then the conversation of attending WOFBI classes can come up so that he is well grounded in the faith and then the church. This is so important.

Hopefully, in the coming weeks as the light of God changes him completely from the inside, getting to know his past and reconciling him with his family will get easier.

God bless you.

This is a beautiful testimony, Anas09.

Thank God you finally took action but I guess God was just looking for the person willing to take the first step to praying for that man's sanity.

A lot of times, God is just waiting to see who will just be willing and the moment you made yourself available, you saw that a few others quickly followed in that direction.

A willing soul is all that's needed.

Perhaps, God was also waiting for the right moment to do what He wanted to do. If you remember the story of Paul and the girl in Acts 16: 16 - 18 who was possessed with a spirit of divination, who was following him around. We can see that Paul noticed her from the first day and clearly knew what she was doing but didn't do anything about her, until the right time before he finally took action. This was after many days.

My God! There's So much to learn from this testimony.

God bless you for becoming that willing vessel for Master's use and for bringing an end to the mockery of the church. Who knows the number of souls that could have been lost because of those sayings.

Praise God for ending that guy's misery and please kindly get the Pastor and elders involved in order to see if peace can be made between this guy and his family.

Glory to God!

Wow...wonderful testimony... After the ordeal of my brother which I wrote about here....I became afraid and I told myself I wouldn't involved myself in sex ever again till marriage....so I thought to myself that it is better to masturbate than sleep around with any random girls who might end up messing me up.
Thereafter I took masturbation to a whole new level, I masturbated thrice or more a day until I stumbled upon this Thread few months back. Then I realise I have been running from pillar to post.
since then, it has been battle I have manage to stay clean for more than two months now...tho any small erotic image I mistakenly lean my eyes on through out that day It is battle on.
I have my own share of dog dream and snake dream since then...I even see myself battling pornography and sex in the dream sometimes I win sometimes I lose even during fasting and prayer...
I attend mountain of fire a church my dead father who never went to church advice me to attend in the dream....I will make sure I attend ODM program as God is every where....thank you sir

Bro. The bolded is the exact thing we read here on this forum everyday. Masturbation is better than fornication. But those we were deep in it and finally came out through the help of God know that it is terrible as Fornication.

People don't talk about the psychological effect of it as they're only blind to the instant sexual gratification they get after indulging in the act.

But I tell you that the thing messes someone up really bad. Because I have a high libido, mine was just as terrible as yours; sometimes, I did it thrice a day or up to five times if I could. The physical exertion that follows was something askin to working all day as a labourer. I will sleep for hours on end and still don't feel alright when I wake up.

Because the spirit involved is a very jealous spirit, my interactions with the opposite sex was abysmal. Everytime, I was in the presence of a woman, I always want to leave and should I actually like that particular woman, I found it hard to express myself. I comforted myself that I was an introvert but deep inside, I knew something was wrong.

My masturbation journey started with woman with big behind, and then it moved to the color of their skin, to that of their eyes, height, total sexuality, and many more over the years. Bro, by the time I was delivered, you won't believe what I was masturbating to as normal things didn't excite me anymore.

Jesus; I was gone, really gone.

Anyways, this were my steps to victory:

Firstly, go to YouTube if you have data, search for Joseph Okechukwu, and browse through his channels and listen to every video he has on masturbation. Ignore his videos on politics for now, you can return to it later. I say this so that you can understand why you are masturbating so much and why the novelty in selecting what triggers what you are doing. This will make you understand the end game of Satan.

2. Work on your Instagram and youtube feeds by choosing the option of "do not recommend this channel" for youtube and "do not want to see content like this" for instagram. It will take time but the more you do it for every content you don't want to see anymore and the more you search for Christian stuffs on both mediums, the faster the process of cleaning your feeds.

Bear in mind that your friends on Instagram might be complacent in you seeing nasty pics on Instagram as they might be following such accounts so you might be on the lookout for that as well. In all of these, I am assuming you actually need these social media accounts.

3. Be careful of the videos you watch especially those comedy skits that seem harmless. Mr. Macaroni is just bodily glorification in my opinion.
Also, be careful of the movies you watch, even Nigerian ones are getting out of hand these days.

4. Join the group I posted on a few days ago and visit the site posted here by one of us. It will give you access to some of the best Christian Literatures available right now. I like the Telegram group particularly because should someone request for a book, you can easily Google the book and check the synopsis to see if you like to read the book as well. Or you can start by getting books of famous Preachers you know.

5. Try and fast at lease once a week. Apart from it's physical uses, it will help you get used to that lifestyle and will uplift you, spiritually.

6. Try and pray between midnight and 3 in the morning. Cultivate the habit of defining your day before the devil does it for you.

7. Since you have high libido like myself, the devil will attack you in various ways. If you keep casting down evil imaginations and everything that is contrary to God's words, especially sexual thoughts, he will calm down for a while. But the day you meet a woman who is sexually attractive and ticks all the boxes, that is the day you will hate yourself. All of the suppressed urges will be unleashed and it will take the Grace of God to overcome that day.

I have failed this test a few times, and the only reason I didn't do it recently was because the lady in question didn't want to at that moment. This was a few months back anyways.

So whenever the urges come especially when you see something that your flesh likes, cast the evil thoughts out that will come in almost immediately, just to keep your vessel clean. But the urges are still there, so what you do is reduce the rate they come.

Take a book and read, something you love reading that will take your mind off sex at the moment. For me, I love reading Epic Fantasy novels. Take a walk at that moment, do something physically exhausting, like exercise; play games, or watch a movie (just be careful of the types Sha). When you do this regularly, slowly, you will learn to turn that sexual energy to something useful rather than suppressing it.

These are just temporary solutions for now, the permanent one will be getting married but that is a very delicate issue as well. I am specifically referring to folks with high libido here please.

Finally, I will send some of the prayer points I have used that has helped overcome those nightmares. And I will also send a PDF containing personal intercessory prayer points for you to strengthen your spirit man. This PDF comes with Bible verses so as you pray, you get to remind God of His promises and of course, you get to memorise them as well.

Kindly send me a PM Sir, and I will send them to your mail before Monday by the Grace of God.

I am confident that You will overcome just as I did.

God bless you.

ojaysam25:

it is not easy ...the body will always be at conflict with our spirit While we are on earth. it is almost impossible not to give in to things of the flesh. this battle is really the toughest. Battle against yourself...I know if I win this battle powers, principalities, demons would be child's play.

You're right bro, it's not easy at all.

If someone had told me that a day would come that I would conceive the thought of sleeping with call girls, however premium they were, I would have laughed at the talk. But a few months ago, I was at that stage.

I moved from porn to masturbation and then fornication; it was a gradual step that took years to bear fruit. Fornication came so late because I once vowed not to have real sex until marriage but two years ago, all of my resolve melted and I broke my vows with gusto.

The devil was very patient with me until I got to that stage and the moment I did, I became insatiable. I wanted it everytime; it was like something got loosed in me.

But I got into youtube one day, and this guy's video on what Masturbation was all about came up, I listened to it and then other videos in his channel about it and what he said in one changed my perspective of what Masturbation was really about.

He said that that sex was impossible without two coming together and in that case masturbation was sex since there was ejaculation, and that it was actually sex with an evil spirit. Mehn, I had never been so scared in my life before. I was deeply troubled that day.

The good thing was after that day, I found it difficult to masturbate anymore; it disgusted me to no end that I might have had kids with devilish spirits in the spirit realm.

After that decision and subsequent reading on the subject, the urge stopped completely but I was still addicted to porn and erotic images; instagram and reddit fueled that part of me. So on few occasions after dwelling on these things but never carrying out these urges, I will get attacked by dogs in my dreams or on other occasions, see myself laying with someone but I would wake up before releasing anything.

I mentioned this on this thread a few times, and didn't really get a solution to my problems. This thing was affecting my spiritual life as I couldn't pray anymore as I always felt dirty and ashamed in God's presence.

So I mentioned my issues to a man of God on this forum, he gave me a long list of prayers and asked that I fasted for 21 days. I did for most of the days until the day I stepped back into sin in a testimony I already posted here.

During those days of fasting, my dreams were free of dogs and sexual intimacies until I fell again, and everything became worse.

But I pulled through and returned to the fold and this time, I have stopped going back to porn, took my time to clear my instagram explore page and removed myself from a lot of groups on social media and all that.

I have been on the word since then, praying and fasting when I can and spending most of my free time on this thread or reading books that edify my life and I have noticed that I don't get the urges I used to get before, I also find it hard to remember certain names I had tattooed to my memory in my sinful days.

And guess what, I haven't masturbated since February this year and don't feel the urge to ever again.

I still have my weakness and I know it now; the worst part of it is that there's a woman (one of my ex) who's my weakness personified. Anytime I see her, boy it's game over as I can't seem to control myself around her, so I have wisely stayed away from her even if she keeps wondering why.

I have noticed that everytime I fast and pray, my spirit gets stronger; I feel bolder and more confident in my walk with Christ.

Next month and January are two months where a lot of churches Carry out programs where we are advised to fast and pray for days unend. For my Church, Shiloh is around the corner and I intend to fast all through, but the big one is actually the 21 days prayer and fasting in January of next year.

It's something you shouldn't miss at all. If your church doesn't do it, attend that of ODM (our daily manna). I tell you that if you undergo this, with the atmosphere of that period charged with the anointing of God, your spiritual life will never remain the same again and there will definitely be an improvement in you taming your flesh.

Sorry about the long post, but I thought to share my experience with you so that you can have it at the back of your mind that someone who has masturbated to so many things I am too ashamed to state now, and did this for more than nine years is completely free today.

You can do it as well. You can dominate your flesh too and keep your temple and vessel clean and ready for the Master's use.

God bless you.

CharlyG1:


I love your maturity dadrenaline.

I remember i rebuked one or two people in the past about "Rebecca Brown" but i didn't even know it was you.

Thank you for your honesty. And I'm glad God gave you a personal revelation of that book, and i'm glad you benefitted from it.

You're welcome back. I guess I was harsh at certain times in the past. Though that anger was/is needed to come up against opposition stemmed from satanic deceits & manipulations. But in the times where my anger has been unnecessary, i am sorry. I see how i could have pushed you away and made matters worse.
But i thank God for guiding you through His Spirit to see clearly that which you could not see.


Keep doing the Lord's will and keep standing up for Jesus.

God bless you

Good morning Sir.

Perhaps your words were harsh but they were the truth as I was speaking out of fear then.

It could have gone either ways and yes, I was in the world for a time after then, but I'm saved now and completely for Jesus now and forever.

You have been a blessing to many here and like everyone else, I'd to commend you for that.

I pray that God's Anointing over your head will be like the Waters that couldn't be passed over in Jesus name, Amen.

God bless you too Sir.

Anas09:

What was your moniker? I need to know you. I don't hide who I am

Lol. Now, you want to know me after the pointless things you just posted a while ago.

I don't know you beyond this forum but you fight for Christ and strive to win souls for him in your own weird way. Everyone is different with different approach to the same thing, but some scenarios don't require much distinction to solve or maneuver through them.

My main moniker is irrelevant. I have my reasons why I don't use it often and that's because I will start getting unwanted mentions to continue a few works of mine here.

We work for Jesus and doing His bidding according to His perfect will is all that matters.

I am not "attacking" you because of issues past, as I don't keep malice but I feel I should mention how you have dragged yourself with filth on this thread.

It's not my business how you act outside but in this place where young Christians come in for exhortation, your behavior when you're angry might seem like something they should emulate and that wouldn't be right.

Like it or not, you're quite popular in this particular section but that won't stop me from calling you out if your behavior will rub off the wrong way on other Christians.

I like you Anas and I don't want any unnecessary back and forth with you except for exhortation of the brethren here, but correction is something you must learn to accept and I won't stop dishing it out, if and when you err.

jubianose:
I've been going through my thought of this great woman of God. Indeed her reward will be great in Heaven.
I thank God that I came across her book. "He came to set the captives free". This book is life changing and expository. She died this year June 23. What a Warrior? What a Soldier of Christ. Brave and fearless.. She dared Satan in the face and the foolish one was thoroughly defeated". As I write this things tears filled my eyes. And that's remind me of what the Holy Spirit said in scriptures in Rev 14:13...

"Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth,.... and they works do follow them"

March on great Soldier of the Lord your works do follow you. Your books is a great blessing to generation now and generation to come. Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints... Psalm 116:15.
REBECCA BROWN.

Mehn, this year has really been a strange year. One of my favorite authors died as well as this year and I just got to know sometime last week.

I don't know how to react to death, the first time I've ever cried about someone's death was when my ex suddenly died from a fibroid surgery complication around January this year.

But this one stings my heart no doubt. Her book was eye opening to me; it was revolutionary.

Well God knows best and this is the very reason why our ways must be right with God here on earth as He can call us home at anytime.

Why now? I ask. That was the same question I asked concerning Myles Munroe when he left this world with his wife. But God's ways and thoughts are not like ours.

Regardless, I'm really saddened by this news.

RIP Rebecca Brown.

jubianose:


Ignoring her post does not change anything, nor add or remove from her.

This thread is for the glory of God alone.

God is perfect but he created imperfect beings, - that's why the Bible talks about perfecting the saints. If the saints are perfect there is no need of the Holy Spirit engaging in perfecting (continuous process) them.

So my dear do not say that concerning Anas09. You can ignore her post albeit internally within yourself, but coming publicly here to say such is pride as well. You are one of the wise people on this thread that I like their post that is why I'm replying you tho.

Don't think that God is glorified when all that is happening here is "praise the Lord" "glory glory hallelujah". That is not how God is glorified. God is glorified in both in good and hard times alike, in both in sin and in righteousness. In both in Light and in darkness as well. For He is the Lord of ALL THINGS.

So Anas09 coming against them with such words is fine, after all they have been blaspheming the name of our Lord here and everyone kept quiet. Mind you most of us that use such harsh words, could not actually use those words outside of writing. And that is a FACT. So sometimes you have to give this satanic people a dose of their on medicine.

Udo....

Perhaps, I shouldn't have posted that but that's the only way I can show my displeasure of her behavior as even people like Charles can't even get to her when she is in that mode.

I see that she has apologized so I take those words back. But I will still be watching while also praying for her.

What's bad is bad, and what's wrong is wrong, regardless of whether she is our own or not. Using the words of the children of Darkness to try to counter them is not wisdom. We have authority in Christ and that is what we should use not use foul words because we're trying to be counter their behavior.

My Bishop will say that, "The Kingdom of Darkness understands only the language of power and not our fluency in whatever language we speak."

That power she has displayed and so has others. As for me, that's the end of discussion on that matter; using uncouth words against your own or others is uncalled for and that must be pointed out regardless of who is involved.

I don't want to drag this any further. I believe the exhortation on this subject is enough; she has apologized and it has been accepted. I will continue to watch as we're ought to concerning our own and issue out corrections regardless of who is involved.

If err, I expect the same loving, correctional treatment as well.
