I want somebody to teach me how I can use Psalm to fight spiritual battle.

which psalm is applicable to a particular spiritual battle in life.

Psalms are not incantation or a special extract for a specific purpose. I will like to inform you that only words of God can be use to fight Spiritual battles. While you are praying to God remind God of what He promise concerning your situations.

If you look at the Psalms you will see that they are examples of how to present your requests before God. Contrary to your thinking they are not they are not incantations.

Things to know.
An investment club is a group of people who pool their money to make investments. Usually, investment clubs are organized as partnerships and, after the members study different investments, the group decides to buy or sell based on a majority vote of the members. Club meetings may be educational and each member may actively participate in investment decisions.
Investment Clubs are run under the following simple rules, and can be modified in many ways: an Investment Club is a group of 12-15 people, usually organized as a legal partnership. The Club has officers, and each member is expected to participate by:
1. attending each monthly meeting;
2. making a minimum monthly contribution, usually N2,000 or so (but you could contribute more);
3. Researching and following the progress of a particular stock or family of stocks that the Club has bought or is considering for purchase.
The Club's portfolio is determined by the members; a designated member deals with the Club's broker to execute buy and sell orders; the value of each member's share is determined by his/her capital contributions to the Club and the total value of the Club's portfolio. There is a clear Club accounting guidelines and software that will help with the bookkeeping, and make it possible to keep track of partners who invest different amounts each month. An Investment Club depends on the involvement of all its members; remember, there are no silent partners in successful Clubs.
At the minimum monthly contribution level of N3, 000, almost anyone can participate in an Investment Club. The only requirements are a willingness to work and participate; and the ability to get along with the other members of the Club. As a legal partnership, you should approach the idea of a Club as going into business with fifteen people -- all fifteen have to be people you trust and people who will trust you in return.
It may also interest you to know that an Investment clubs usually do not have to register, or register the offer and sale of their own membership interests, with the SEC. But since each investment club is unique, each club should decide if it needs to register and comply with securities laws.
Since the Securities Act requires the registration of the offer and sale of most securities, the investment club must first decide if its membership interests are "securities." Generally, a membership interest is a security if it is an "investment contract."
Generally, a membership interest is an investment contract if members invest and expect to make a profit from the entrepreneurial and managerial efforts of others.
If every member in an investment club actively participates in deciding what investments to make, the membership interests in the club would probably not be considered securities. If the club has any passive members, it may be issuing securities.
Sometimes offers and sales of securities do not have to be registered because they are exempt under the law. For example, a non-public offering is exempt.
An investment club must register with the SEC as an investment company under the if all of the following three conditions apply:
1. the club invests in securities,

2. The club issues membership interests that are securities

3. The club is not able to rely on an exclusion from the definition of Investment Company.
For example, a "private investment company" may not need to register with the SEC. To qualify, an investment club
• must not make, nor propose to make, a public offering of its securities, and

• must not have more than 100 members
An announcement that a club is looking for new members might be considered a public offering, but this is determined on a case-by-case basis. An attorney with experience in securities law can help the club determine if its membership interests are securities, and if the club is making a public offering of those securities.
If the adviser is compensated for providing the advice regarding the club's investments, the adviser may need to register according to the Investment Advisers Act. Also, if one person selects investments for the club, that person may have to register as an investment adviser.
In general, a person who has N25 million or more in assets under management is required to register with the SEC under the Investment Advisers Act.
A person managing less than N25 million may be required to register under the securities laws of the state or states in which the adviser transacts business.
Both the Investment Advisers Act and many state laws do not require registration for advisers with a small number of clients
money back') of most Clubs will often be less than the capital contributions of its members during the first year or two. That is to say, investing in the stock market is a long-term proposition, and you may only see your contribution increase in value after the first year or so of a Club's operation.
You should expect to make a long-term commitment, and the partners usually decide to include a clause that addresses the early withdrawal of funds (other than in the case of unusual circumstances).
Most Club members also eventually begin their own individual portfolios, armed with the knowledge and skills they gain from belonging to the Club.
Warning:
Before you join an investment club, you should definitely take a look at your finances. If you have any free capital that is not used for bills, payments, and so on, you might consider investing. However, if you are in severe debt, you probably shouldn’t join an investment club, as the odds are you will lose money before you begin to gain any. Our best advice: do not invest beyond your means!
Some Mutual benefits In Investment Club.
Personal risk is low. Even though the money that your club has to invest can be quite large, your own personal contribution can be very minimal. This way you’re not risking a lot of your money while you learn how the stock market works. You can still make some great investments but your loss factor will be manageable for you. Keep in mind that when your club makes a profit, no matter how small, the amount must be distributed throughout the investment club membership.
More room for profit. Recent studies of investment clubs show that when a group of people make investment decisions after a series of discussions and debates, the potential for profit is greater than when individuals make their own decisions about where and how to invest their money.
Similar interests. Members of an investment club enjoy getting together on a regular basis to discuss the investment market and to learn more about a subject that greatly interests them.
Invest regularly. Investment clubs have the ability to invest in the stock market even when the market is dropping or is slow. Because the money in spread out among a group of members the room for huge personal loss doesn’t exist.
Reinvest. Since most members are part of an investment club for fun, and to learn more about the stock market, there will be more room for reinvesting the gains and dividends that are earned from successful investments. When you invest on your own you won’t be as willing to part with earned investment money and reinvest everything that you gain.
Spread out investments. When you’re investing with a group of people you can diversify your investments and not limit yourself to just one or two market choices.
For who?
Starting out. If you’ve always wanted to invest in the stock market but been reluctant to lose large sums of money because you don’t know what you’re going to do, then an investment club is great for you since you can be part of a large investment team.
Low investments. If you only have a small amount of money to invest each month, such as N3000 to N5,000, then an investment club is perfect for you. You can invest small amounts of money into the larger combined total of the entire club.
Investing education. If you’ve always wanted to learn more about investing in the stock market, but you keep putting your interest aside, an investment club is a great way to inspire you to attend meetings and learn more about how to invest.
Socializing. Getting together with a group of people with similar interests is an enjoyable way to learn about something that you’ve always wanted to be knowledgeable about.
Inspiration. When you can safely work with people with similar interests you’ll be inspired to take chances and learn as much as you can about investing.
Our goals are:
• To learn about investing in stocks
• To make a return on investments.
Objectives:
i. To make profit through stock marketing.
ii. To ensures safety of capital by divesting into money marketing.
iii. To sustain the club through investment in real Estate and involve in other Business ventures.
iv. Our investment horizon are in Short, Medium or long term.

Our Business Models
Esusu Strategic Investment Plan. (AESI)
This type of business model requires less paperwork and knowledge about taxes and other financial issues. Like Most investment clubs we will choose a general partnership as our choice of a business entity. A general partnership has nominal paperwork and costs associated with it because the taxes are passed to each partner’s tax returns. This type of business model will motivate members to accomplish what is needed to do to run an investment club with the least amount of tax influence. Investors (known as Partners) will contribute a specified amount each for start up investment. In addition to this,”Adako and “Esusu” strategies will be built in to improve and expand the investment of the club:
1. “Esusu” strategy: Is also a form of contribution that is made by a group of people. In this case a sum contributed at a particular time will be given to one person for use while others wait until the next contributions. This look like an interest free loan to members of the group.

Is it compulsory to go to church?
Is there any punishment for not going to church?
Cant someone be performing praises and worship in his house without even stepping any church.
Can a christian that doesnt go to church but does his prayer at home go to heaven?

Thank you.

I have not said it is compulsory but it is important to attend a Church (A bible beleiving church) there you will be able to learn more about Christ. Apart form that, going to Church will answer Christ request or Prayer as written in John 17:21. " That they all may be one".

There are no punishment for not joining a church. however, you may not enjoy some benefit ssociated with moving with fellow beleivers.

If you choose to worship at home fine but make sure you worship in truth and in Spirit.

Church is not part of Criteria for Heaven seeking. But it is must be noted that if truelly you beleive in Christ you will obey His words. "Do not forsake the gathering of other beleivers.

Finally, i will like you to read the Act of Apostle and learn the original ways of life of early beleivers. I am sure you will get the clear understanding of why you must go to church.

Go to Church it is a good thought!

You can aspire to be sinless. Your aspiration willwin youthe gift of Rieghousness in Christ Jesus. And Finally, Brethren you will be saved.

was opportuned to visit united states sometimes ago and my experience on sundays was always appaulling and pathetic.i had to walk for hours before i got a church and again surprisingly,the church was filled up by old folks.asked some people that claimed christianity:they said it's not compulsory.that the doctrine of going to church on sundays is not biblical

Logged

First and foremost get this fact: American standard is not the acceptable Spiritual standard for God.

The Bible says, "Do not forsake the gathering of other believers" Church is one of those gathering.

Going to the Temple on the sabbath was compulsory for the Isrealite and form the Life of Jesus, He attend temple service regularly.

A Christian must walk in His step. Go to Church it is a good thought.

I gave my life to the Lord a short while ago and I started going to this small,African church.I was met by this young man at a store and he gave me a flyer to come to church.I said o.k not knowing that my life was about to change.

I went to the church and right after service the pastor cut off all conversations to come and meet me.I was trying to leave pretty fast because I wasn't use to the church environment. He asked me if I want to go to the movies with him and his wife.I said o.k.That's how it all started.

He started calling me everyday,I told him my life story and all my problems.He started to pick me up and just talk to me about my life. One day he asked me to go swimming with him and after saying no a few times he insisted that I go so I did.We went alone.He played with me then he started bring me closer and closer to his body.Next thing I know is I could feel his hard privates against my butt! I didn't say anything because he acted like he didn't notice it himself.

Over the next month he became like a boyfriend only without sex and kissing and touching.He was always in my business. He told me that I should marry my boyfriend of four years or move out on my own so I decided to move out.

He started coming to my apartment everyday and he started to "play" with me.he would touch me everywhere and I wouldn't touch him back.I started to have feelings for him,he had just gotten married a couple of months before and he told me that if he knew me that he would have married me.I was blown away that a man of God like me.I began to see him as my boyfriend in a way. I didn't date anyone or allow guys to even approach me.

After a few months,I thought he would never try to kiss or have sex with me I just thought he like to be close to me.So one day he told me to come to his job and sit with him.He use to always tell me to come and sit with him at night because he didn't want me to feel lonely or start thinking about a boyfriend.So I was use to going to see him and nothing happening. This time was different.

There was a guy at my job who like me a lot and he was sending me poetry all of the time.This time he sent it while I was with me pastor.I read the text and smiled and my pastor was like what is that that is making you smile.He grabbed the phone and read the text.He was quite for a minute then he said,why are you doing this?I was like doing what?he was like tallking to men.I was like,well I'm single and I can't stay single.He got very quite.Then he drove to a quite location and then he KISSED ME! I didn't kiss him back,then I did kiss him back and I couldn't believe he was kissing me.I thought that it could never happen because he has be alone with me in my apartment and slept on my bed and never done it before.

He didn't kiss me again for months,but we stayed close.I told a friend and she asked him about it,he got so mad at me that he stopped visiting me for a while.Recently I was at his house as usual and out of no where he kissed me again!!!I wasn't expecting it almost ten months since the last time. I don't want to have feelings for him but I do.He laid me down and began to unbutton my clothes.

In my mind I was like this is so wrong,but my body was so hot for him that I didn't know what to do!He began to stick his finger inside me and since he had kept me from guys and I had feelings for him I stayed away from guys,it had been a long time since I had been touched,let alone fingered.I came and I feel asleep.I love him but I don't want to.He has just been so good to me since he brought Jesus into my life. He is a young man in his late to mid twenties.I don't know how to totally stop,we have not had sex,but I wonder if it's wrong what has happend.I love my church and I don't want to give people the wrong impression so this is s secret I will take to the grave,who is wrong me?Him?Or both of us?I forgot to say that he has become someone of a spiritual father to me and ever since I have known him my life has changed dramatically,he says that I am connected to his anointing and I believe it.I have never lived so good. what do you think?

Your story look real because so many of this has happened before. If your stories were not fictions. I like to ask you to confess this to God and also reporet this incident to a Senior Pastor in your Church. And if this Church is own by one man i.e the Pastor in question, I will advice you stop attending that Church and Pray over the situation that God may deliver you from Such eveil people. There are two things that may be coming your way, 1 the "Pastor" is into some occultic programming and He is seen you for a use. Please run for your dear life.

The other aspect to this is that, the Pastor has made you stumble and Jesus said it is better to tie on hios neck big stone and throw him in to the ocean.
We shall be praying with you, God will reease youfromthis bondage. However, I will suggest for now avoid the so call Pastor and to be under a safe hand of Jesus Christ, visit a pastor of Bible beleiving Church and narrate this incident.

Do not cover your own sin!

yeah mammy water is for real. when i was in ogbe primary school effurun, warri. the creature called mamaid came out one hot afternoon to dry her skin by the side of the river, that was the first time i saw her, so beautiful. they are for real and exist as u and me. ok

Today I received a vist from a family friend.
She invited me to her church, I refused.
Her daughter was taken to that same church to be delivered because according to her pastor, her grandmama give am winch chop.
Now that family friend is of the opinion that I am possessed since my mother is always complaining about me.

How credible is that pastor?
Do these demons exist for real?

PS: I am atheist and I refused because I don't believe in such things, but then I want to hear your views about this issue.

You have your Choice of where to worship and you will be accountable to God if by worshiping in a wrong place lead you to Hell.

Credibility of a Pastor depends on your own Spiritual Credibility.

Demon are the angels that moved with the Devil(Satan) during his rebelious act to God in heaven. Demon truely exist. They are the invisible forces behind all bad things in this world. Beware! Demons are everywhere only those in Christ Jesus is above them.

This thread has been so interesting, many people were trying to express their point of view and at the end everyone giving their piece of mind.

In all honesty, I will like us to leave every benefit of doubt to the Glory of God the Almighty. I have tried to search through the Bible yet to find where it was specifically written that Trousers, Wrapper, Wrobe are meant for a particular Sex. God made cover of Goat Skin for adam and Eve. Not sure if Trousers or short for a particular Sex. Every Opinion we would espress on clothing for Male and Female may not bring any result.

That being as it may, I want to state here with all emphasis that some Fashion were prohibited by God, Men using earings, and wearing of Tatoo by both sexes.

I need an honest and unbaise opinion on the above subject. If making refference to the bible please make it clear and if it is your own personal view, be specific.
Thanks and God bless as you make your Contributions.

i have stopped paying my tithe to my church, just lately i decided to separate my tithe and buy things for widows and orphans around me. Not because i am suspecting anyone, i just feel more comfortable with it . . . do you think it is a good one?

To be Obedient is better than sacrifice. God did not say bring all tithes to Widows or Orphan. He said Bring all tithe to my house,

So giving your tithes to other place may put you in the position as a disobedient Child to God. And since you are not the pwner of your tithe I think you have no control over it. Tithe belong to God.

Pay it on the right instruction and then you can proof God.

THIS ARGUEMENT FEATURED  DURING A SUNDAY SCHOOL IN A CHURCH WHEN THE TEACHER SAID JESUS SAID NOBODY WILL ENTER THE KINGDOM OF GOD BUT THROUGH HIM.ONE OLD MAN STOOD ANGRILY AND ASKED HIM(THE TEACHER) IF HIS FORE FATHER(THE TEACHER) KNEW CHRIST B4 THEY DIED?AND THAT DOES IT MEAN THAT AN HERBALIST WHO DID NOT EVIL RECORD BUT FEARED GOD WILL GO HELL ALSO ?PLEASE CONTIBUTE YOUR OWN IDEA.

through Adam, Sin came into the world.  Because God is Merciful He send His only Son to serve as the remision for Sin.  Meaning After Christ no one can get to the Father in heaven.

To provide my view on your main concern, Those fore fathers who knew not Christ even though they have no evil record which I doubt may not be excuse from the Judgement of God.  Going by the aforemention Sin inherited from Adam.

It is always good for you that you are alive to seek God when He may be found.

Are Muslim(Imale) Speak in Tongue too?

hi guys, thanx 4 your contributions. i'll keep u updated as the seminar is not yet over. @ the course of the seminar so many people see kissing as a mere greeting, while others see it as a sin and should be avoided.

bible students in the house, can we search the scripture to back up our argument, as the bible is our constitution as xtians and anything outside it is considered null and void.

You will never see in the Bible issue of Kissing before Marriage but Sex before Marriage is a S--- I----N

Tell them in your confference to becareful that they may not home with wrong impresion. Kiss if you want to Kiss provided you are not going to move beyound that.

I want to bring your attention to the fact that God knows you before you were born. So definitely God knows if you are going to be good or otherwise, he also knows if you are going to make Heaven or make Hell. Don't you think that's unfair. Send your opinions.

Yes God knows your end from the begining. Remember you also have a choice to make on your ending well or not God is not unfair.

yes!!! its so big. and grows fast. NO JOKE

just hearing about that name and church may be ,

Fellows, please find attached an article on BIBLE ACCOUNTS THAT SUGGEST REINCARNATION. Wishing you a joyful reading!

Why not come up with your own opinion instead of quoting people.

The fastest growing church in the world today is THE LORD'S CHOSEN CHARISMATIC REVIVAL MOVEMENT founded by God through his servant, PASTOR LAZARUS MUOKA.

Your Church?

A WOMAN SHOULD NOT WEAR ANYTHING THAT PERTAINS TO A MAN, NOR SHALL A MAN PUT ON A WOMAN'S GARMENT,FOR ALL WHO DO SO ARE AN ABOMINATION UNTO GOD ALMIGHTY"

e.g

Who is the most popular church founder?

Question like this may make people "To thy tent O Istreal!"

Uganda pastor denies miracle scam
A Uganda-based preacher has denied charges he tried to import an electric shock machine to make people believe he could pass on the Holy Spirit.

"This is a toy. It was sent for my daughters' birthday," Ghanaian Kojo Nana Obiri-Yeboah told the BBC.

The machine was seized at Entebbe airport and police are investigating.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/6294666.stm

The machine is meant to be used by magicians, as indicated on the manufacturer's website:

Quote
Have a volunteer touch any part of your body, and watch them receive a pleasant electric static shock that will amaze them!

*With a touch of your finger, make a fluorescent light bulb glow on and off under your command!

*Charge a spoon, keys or coins and watch as it shocks a volunteer! They will believe you have supernatural powers!

*You can also have a telekinesis effect by making confetti jump up and down on a table!

*You can transfer the electric static shock to your audience with free hands! No jacket, shirt, or any jewelry!

The pleasant static shock from Electric Touch will make audiences excited and they will remember you for the rest of their lives. Perform it anywhere on a moment's notice.

Some have speculated that ''anointed' evangelists like Benny Hinn rely on devices like this.
That may explain why they can easily make people fall down but cannot cure simple AIDS.

Discuss.

This is great in that it sharpens our decerning Skills! Good job man

I want to tell you that those who do not give time to study the Word of God will fall Cheaply in the hand of these fake Pastors. One big lesson here for us all is to study our Bible. It is our Compas and detector.

Shallom!

Some time ago, i spoke with a relative of mine who used to campaign to people in Nigeria about the existence of the "spirits of poverty" and their activities in people's lives, he used to recommend them to pray and "cast" out these "demons" from their families.

Your friend was partially right in that He acknowledge a Spirit behind Poverty. But in the way to cast the Spirit, I will only want to put few things right.

First and foremost, "Devourer" is the Spirit of Poverty = Malachi 3 vs 5-12

Secondly the only known way out of it is "Obdience" to the Commandment of God. Then Prayers could then be applied. The first must come first.

;DShallom1

I (God) will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee (moses), and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him."

Deuteronomy 18:18

Truelly you love to talk

It's a common phenomenon that most muslim guys prefer to date xtian gals these days. As a result most brothers have lost their fate. Most say that they can't find suitable muslim sista to date. I believe because of the hip culture that xtianity embraced, I slam is looking old-school to them.

Brothers in  the house what can we do to change this situation as the future of islam lies in the coherence of her family.

I so much hope you are not calling for a Jihad?

Thanks

dafidixone good answer
In Islam women should not wear clothes that show their bodies . There is no classification as to what they can wear, whether gown or skirt

Sorry I have not answer anything I only make suggestions that may bring reasonable opinion devoid of argument.

I appreciate your concern

Thanks

They are totally different! Will Jesus figth Jihad?

god says that females should not wear males' wears.so i want to know as younger ones do not wear any other thing aside men's wear.

For anyone to be able to attempt your question I think you have to list all Items you clasified for men only Trousers are of different different types if you put on some trousers dog will say you are And don't forget to put issue of Culcure into consideration when you are making these lists. Fro example some culture in England Men wear Skirt. Do not forget to classify who weras Gown Male or Female?

He who asserts must prove

i was busy and couldn't go into detail at the time i posted that. But all the same i would like to know if your a member of cherubim and seraphim, if your one don't find any of my post offensive as that is not my intention to offend anyone but to throw light because i knew that wthout God's mighty hand i would stll be on that fold tll date.

Yes, it very true that today every one sees his/her denomination as the best. But one thing for sure is that if you don't know the history of your father you don't know where you come from.

personally i see reasons in what ever thing or opinion hold by another person but must make reach on every of them that i don't really know much about.

I was a member of cherubim and seraphim and did defend it any where untill i was convicted by holy spirit when i read 2 chapters of the Bible[mark7:6-8 and matt7:13-14,21-23] there i started asking question about the teaching of the church and wasn't getting any satisfactory answer then i decided seaching theBible to see wether there is any man's tradition and customs the church is upholding there in the Bible i discovered most of the practice and teachings of the church is contrary to the Bible.

If you re member of cherubim and seraphim you wll agree wth me that the church stll perform ritual sacrifices which christ abolished on the cross whn he said it finished[ceremonial law or law of sacrifice was abolished on the cross by christ who is the type while the antitype was the shadow of things to come{christ}].

What of Micheal and cherubim anniversaries? That is another form of idol worship.
Micheal anniversary which took place every either 15th of May every years how ist been conducted?

On the anniversary ceremony which is a very important day to the chich is a day the shurch seek for power to move forther. On the ceremony there wll be 4 elders mounted at the 4cardinal points of the church representing east, west, north and south and the most elder among them wll face east{sun} and wll shout 'THE STAR' 7times and the congregation wll be responding 'THE MORNING STAR'.
Read the Bible very well to know who is the refers as the the morning star.
Read Ez815-16 you wll know what that anniversary of micheal which you faced the SUN to seek for power what it means.

take your time to study the bible as that is the only way you can find truth about church you see yourself today.

remember the most dangerous falsehold is that falsehold mingled wth truth.
It let for every one to note that as satan never give 100% lie, but truth mixed wth lies.
There is nothing like 99% truth. truth is 100%. 100 divide by 100 =1{truth]

I got to know about this church in a place Ifako Agege There was a river Called "Pele" then, I learnt it was the founding origing of C&S Even that that was where Orimolade was Burried.

There is something I noticed about this particular White garment "gathering" to get more spiritual you must be solid or knowledgable in "Isegun Ibible" Knowing the use of "eyin ibile" "Osedudu" and Combine it with some other occultic practices "Red Candle" Saint Paris Prfume e.t.c.

I do not claim I have good knowledge of this, but I have so many friends who are into this they have there on Gathering today. I can give you some addresses if you like to get them for you to go and study their doctring Viz-avis the Christ and Biblical Doctrine.

Do now be deceived not everyone that call me Lord will enter the Kindom
