I now understand that some people are addicted to suffering

paxonel:
Lies! Lies! Lies!

Rather,you should say if you don't believe in Christ you are unrighteous

You can't deny the place of Christ in getting people to be righteous

Romans 3:22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:

So what you are saying is that you can go on sinning, as long as you believe in Christ.

God sees our actions, nothing is hidden before Him. You can't hide from Him

Make up your mind to forgive, remove that bitterness and grudge against the person

Nothing that has spot or rinkle will make it to Heaven, be wise

Philippians 2:6-9

[6]Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
[7]But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
[8]And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.

Think about What Jesus did for you. Jesus was God the Son. The second person of the trinity. But because of you and me, He left His throne of glory and majesty to come to this stinking and sinful world.

He made Himself of no reputation, that is to say, He made Himself a nobody. He took upon Himself the form of a servant, and not only that, He was made in the likeness of men, which means, He became a human being.

Being a human being, He experienced what human beings experienced. He experienced hunger, thirst, cold, deprivation, at a point, He was homeless, He experienced criticisms and insults. infact He passed through a lot.

Not only that, He was obedient even to the death of the cross. He was betrayed, He was spat upon, He was flogged with stripes that had metal hooks, of which when He was flogged with that stripes, the hooks tore His flesh apart.

He was placed a crown of thorns on His head, what a mockery. At a point in time, He was tired. He had no strength to carry His cross to the place of His crucifixion. Another person carried His cross for Him.

His hands and His feet was pierced with 6 inches nails. He was hung on the cross like a criminal. Infact, He died a shameful death. When He was thirsty, instead of being given water, He was given vinegar. He did this because of His love for you.

At a point, He creid my Father, my Father, why have you forsaken me. God placed the sins of me and you upon His son, and God cannot behold sin, that was why He closed His eyes to Jesus death.

Take a minute and ponder on what Jesus did for you. The extent He went to save you from eternal condemnation. Will you reject Him, will you take what He did for you for granted.

Remember, we were all condemned to hell because of the sin of Adam. We were like men that had no hope. We were placed under the curse of eternal destruction, but Jesus, because of His love for us came and died an agonizing death for us.

Right now He is offering Salvation to you free of charge, you don't have to pay anything to accept that salvation. Jesus has paid everything for you. All you need to is to accept the priceless salvation which Jesus is offering to you.

Look at Jesus knocking at the door of your heart, He wants to enter, will you open the door, or will reject Him. Be wise and make the right choice.

Who is that person that have hurt you so badly, forgive that person and release him from the prison of your heart

I want to share briefly the word of God. The bible says in 1 Corinthians 6:9

''Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,''

What this scripture tells us is that no unrighteous man will inherit the kingdom of God. It goes on to list some of the sins that will disqualify us from inheriting the kingdom of God, such as fornication, idolaters, abusers of themselves with mankind. This includes Homosexual and lesbians.
We are told not to be deceived, that anyone who practice this sins shall not make heaven.

If you are sleeping with someone that is not your husband or wife, you are a fornicator.

If you are a worshipper of idols, graven images or regard anything in your heart above God, you are an idolater.

If you are sleeping with a married man or woman, you are an adulterer.

If you are a man, and you want to dress like a woman or transform yourself to a woman or behave like a woman, you are effeminate.

Homosexuals and lesbians are also included in this verse. Don't be deceived by anyone telling you that nothing is wrong with them. The Bible strictly condemns it. Anyone who practice all the things will no inherit the kingdom of God.

If you are committing sin, you are unrighteous. If you are a liar, thief, gossiper, backbiter, drunkard, smoker, gambler, witch, you are unrighteous and you will be rejected on the last day.

If you are an atheist, you don't believe in God, Jesus, Heaven, Hell, judgement day that is coming, you are unrighteous, you will not inherit the kingdom of God.

Search yourself, you know that secret sin you are committing. If you don't repent thoroughly from it, you will miss Heaven. Note this, if you miss Heaven, you cannot miss hell.

Wisdom demands that you repent thoroughly from your sins, remove every unrighteousness from your lives so that on the last day, you will inherit the kingdom of God, which is Heaven.

Read Matthew 6 vs 9-15.

I want to talk about unforgiveness. Many people have been hurt terribly by their fellow human beings, and because of that, they have vowed never to forgive that individual.

But Jesus admonishes us to forgive. Remember how you offended God, remember when you were deep in sin and in terrible wickedness against God. Remember the abortion, the murder, the betrayal, the hurt you did to others, yet Jesus Christ forgave you wholeheartedly.

As Jesus forgave you, you are also commanded by God to forgive those that have hurt you. No matter what they have done to us, maybe someone you did good to repaid you with evil, maybe someone you trusted wholeheartedly broke your heart, maybe someone cheated you and defrauded you, maybe someone you helped to become somebody in this life decided to turn against you, maybe someone ganged up against you in your place of work, accused you of what you didn't do, and it led to your sack. Maybe someone promised to marry you, and at the end of the day, he disappointed you and broke your heart, no matter what it is, Jesus commands us to forgive and let go.

I know it is not easy, remember that God for Christ sake forgave you when you broke His heart. All you need to do is to forgive, remove that grudge from your heart and leave everything to God.

Remember that unforgiveness can bring hindrance to prayers. Oh yes. You may have been praying for God to solve a particular situation for you, yet no answer. God decided to be silent because of that unforgiveness. Read Mark 11 vs 25.

Finally, remember that unforgiveness is a sin and it can take you to hell, because no iota or trace of sin will be allowed to enter Heaven. It is only those who live a holy life, a life without sin will be allowed to heaven.

What is that bitterness and hatred you are bearing in mind against that person that hurt you so badly. Remember that you are forgiving him for Christ sake and not for anything else.

So anything at all that will put a barrier between you and God and hinder God from answering you, just as unforgiveness, remove it far from you.

When next you are about to pray, search your heart. If there are people you have not forgiven, forgive them one by one before you continue with your prayers.

I plead with you. Forgive! Forgive!! Forgive!!!

Shalom.

Don't joke with this warning

How can you escape, if you neglect so great a salvation. It will be terrible. It was better you were not born

Mods, please push this post to front page so that people can read and be careful with their lives

Actually, I want to point out a few things concerning this message God gave me. I will not talk much because the message from the Lord was self explanatory.

Let me tell you the truth, I was not expecting this. If anyone tells me that God will one day open my mouth and speak through me, I won't believe it. Infact I doubted it. I thought it was impossible. But look at me, I happened to me on Wednesday.

I want you to think just a few things, do you know you will not live in this world forever, what is that thing you pursuing so much at the expense of your soul, and that has made you to forget your creator. Do you know that your soul is worth more than the whole world and you can give nothing in exchange for it.

Do you know that that money, education, certificate, marriage, job, connection, visa, etc that you are pursuing it all ends here and when you die, you are not taking anyone of them to the grave.

You will go with nothing and the only thing that counts is your relationship with Jesus.

Also, take note, your garment must be spotless, white as snow and it must be without wrinkle or blemish.

Please note that the day of the Lord will be a terrible day and a dreadful day, no one can withstand the anger of the Lord that will be poured out that day. Mercy will not be shown that day.

Please take time and think. Look at what you are suffering now, look at your condition, look at what you are passing through, you have known that this life is not easy. Is it after suffering hardship and terrible pains in this world, you still go to hell and suffer again for all eternity. My advise for you my brother and sister is to forget about that problem and think on how you can secure your soul. Ah! Do you know the value of your soul, think about this, use your brain.

Let me tell you the truth, the world is not getting better and is not going to get better because the world is being rolled like a mat and it remains a small portion of that mat for the world to be completely rolled up.

Lastly, don't let what Jesus did for you free of charge on the cross of Calvary to be in vain. many people are dead and have gone to eternity, thank God you are still alive, remember you will not be in this earth forever, also remember, death can come at anytime. I will die one day, you will die one day.

How old are you now, was is how old you were 10 years ago, you are nearing to grave everyday that comes by.

Finally, if your church you are attending is not preaching what I am preaching, run away from that church, they only care about your tithe and offering, they don't care about your soul.
Escape for your life.

First of all I want to thank the Lord for the genuine salvation He granted to me and for showing me mercy after years of sin and rebellion against Him.
The Lord gave me salvation on the month of February this year and it is seven months and counting, and I am still strong in the Lord.

I also want to thank God for baptizing me with the Holy Ghost on the 31st of May this year, ever since then, my life has never remained the same.

Normally every 4pm in the evening, I always seek the face of God for 2 or 3 hours which ends by 6 or 7 pm or thereabout.

But on Wednesday, 4th September, 2024, it was different. Something that I have never experienced before in my life happened.

I normally start with songs of praise. After I was through with praise, I entered into worship songs. As I was worshipping God, the presence of God came down mightily.

The presence was so much on me, insomuch that something I have never experienced happened.

Immediately I found myself humming hymns like

'At the cross at the cross, where I first saw the light '

'Oh the Love that sought me, O that blood that brought me, O that grace that brought me to the fold, wondrous grace that brought me to the fold'
and another hymn which I can't remember now.
I was not the one singing it, it was coming out of my mouth freely, and with great force.

Then my mouth opened, and God spoke through me in a loud voice, everyone around me heard the voice because it was so loud and commanded me to give this message to the people He created. He spoke in my dialect Igbo, and I have to translate it to English, and I quote.

''I am the one who died on the cross of Calvary for the sins of men. I am the one who shed my blood for mankind, but look at the men I died for, they don't know me, look at the human beings I created, they don't know me.

Human beings have used their hands and have corrupted the world I created. Go and tell them that a terrible and a dreadful day is coming, a day that I will show no mercy, human beings that I created have abandoned me.

Look at the pastors I anointed to go and warn the people of a terrible day that is coming has left my message, they have gone after money and material things that does not last.

Look at the men I anointed right from their mother's womb to warn sinners, they have left me, and they have yielded to Satan my enemy, because of the money and wealth of this world that does not last. I know where I am waiting for them, their own punishment will be different.

Go and warn the people that a terrible day is coming and that now that they are alive, they have the opportunity to receive me. Look at my hands stretched out for them to receive me, because that day is coming in which I will show no mercy.

Chukwudi, go and warn them that a terrible and dreadful day is coming, this is the only message I want you to preach, don't add, don't subtract. Preach only what I have told you to preach.

I am sending you out to the world to go and warn the people which I have created.

Chukwudi you know I love you I know many things which I have done for you that I will not tell you, I want you to repay me back by going to preach this message which I have sent you, he who has an ear, let Him hear, this is what I want you to know, I am through with my message''

Immediately the message ended from my mouth, I felled to the ground. This is the message, let everyone use his tongue to count his teeth. This is thus said the Lord, I will not add, I will not subtract.

Have a blessed Sunday

Michael547:
In acts chapter 2:4, 11, Did the disciples not speak in different tongues by the Holy Spirit about God to people in their native tongues that they could understand, why are people not practicing that today?

Read 1 Corinthians 14:2
[2]For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.

When you speak in tongues, no man understands you, but you are speaking mysteries in the spirit.

When you speak in tongues, it is your spirit that is talking to God directly, your don't understand what you are speaking.

Michael547:
It's not about your story, it's about what the Bible says.
Do you believe that there a people who fake speaking in tongues? If yes, how can we differentiate the real one from the fake?

Read Acts 2 vs 38, you will discover that once you repent and your sins being remitted, you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost, which is the Holy Ghost baptism with the evidence of speaking in tongues.

You too can experience it. If you are truly born again and without sin in your life, go ahead in sincerity and with all your heart and ask God to baptize you with the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in tongues. He will give it to you, and you will experience it yourself.

That there fake does not mean there is no original

Please stop saying and arguing what you don't know about and what you never experienced.

I was once like you, I once said that speaking in tongues is scam and that It was not possible, until I experienced it myself

Greetings and peace be unto you from our Father who lives in heaven in Jesus name.

I want you to know that we have a God that see everybody. He is omnipotent. There is nothing hidden before Him. Darkness is light before Him.

As a result of that, He sees your actions, even your secret actions. Those things you do in secret, thinking that no one seeing you, I want you to know that God sees you with His all seeing eye.

He even hears your thoughts. Your thoughts are like loudspeaker to His ear. Any thought you entertain in your heart, whether good or bad, I want you to know that He hears it.

So my point is this: that sin you are committing in secret, and you think you no one is seeing because no one is around at the moment, I want you to know that God sees you.

What is that secret sin you are committing, that pornography you are watching with your phone or laptop in your room, and you think no one is seeing you, God is seeing you.

What about that masturbation you do secretly in your room, making love with yourself, handling your sex organ by yourself and deriving pleasure from it, and after committing it, you pretend nothing has happened and think no one saw it, let tell you that God saw it.

What about that sexual immorality you commit by sleeping with someone that is not your wife or husband, in the name of boyfriend and girlfriend relationship, and you think no one saw you, because you committed it secretly, let me tell you, God saw it.

Maybe you are a homosexual or a lesbian and you commit all those atrocities secretly, God is seeing you.

What about you, you are into drugs, you deal with hard drugs, you do it secretly, and think no one is seeing you.

Maybe you are a witch, in the secret of your room, you cast spells on people, destroy people's destinies, wreck homes, render people useless, that spell and incantations you do in the altar of your room using demonic powers, and you think no one is seeing you, God saw every thing you did in that room.

Time will fail me to mention other secret sins that people commit. I want you to know that on the day of judgement, all those secret sins that you committed will be displayed like a movie before you. You will be watching it on that day.

On that day, there will be no mercy, you will face the fierceness of the anger of God's judgement and no one can deliver you.

But there is a way out, I want you to search your life, what is that secret sin you are committing, I want you to confess it to God. Ask Him to show you mercy and forgive you. Repent with bitter tears. Because if you die in those secret sin, it will be too late for you to repent. Amend your ways now

Usmanovic95:
Broski, we are just surviving, we are not living. Every Nigeria should strive to make heaven by all means, it will be terrible going to hell when you die as a Nigerian in Nigeria, Double tragedy🤔🤔.

well spoken. If Nigeria is like this, one wonders how hell will look like

Everyday247:
Op your problem no be gambling, na lack of strategy. When you were punting, did you use your own strategy and predictions? Let's assume you used your's, did you change your strategy and learn from your mistakes?
I think what happened to you was that you were using the EXACT SAME STRATEGY for many years that's why you think you can't win. If you ever decide to return to punting try CHANGING YOUR STRATEGY.

The life I am living now, I am enjoying it. Even if I hear that someone won 10 million through gambling, it won't shake me a bit.

I can't be cracking my brain everyday strategizing and predicting outcomes that are determined by luck.

I can't be wasting my time everyday surfing the internet looking for the best prediction website that forecasts games.

I can't be surfing using my phone every minute of the day looking at livescores.

I can't bear the stress of standing for more than 8 hours a day going from one gambling house to another playing virtual sports betting.

Did I hear you say strategy? How can you be strategizing and developing new strategies on something that the outcome is unknown. Something that is determined by luck.

Hear this truth, no matter the kind of strategy you develop, you can never win this people. They are smarter.

Everyday247:
So Alabi took all your money, and you're just going to quit without a fight?
Don't let Alabi win, go and collect back your money 😈

This is a serious matter, we are not here for jokes. Please be guided.

Greatzeus:
I'm so glad to read this your testimony,i pray God will bring out all reading this that are held shackled by the yoke of gambling,that you will find your total freedom too.

Amen. Thank you very much bro. If I see people that are still addicted to gambling, my heart goes out for them. They are really suffering. They are going through hell.

The most disturbing part of it is that out of 100 people that are addicted to gambling, the total number of people that will actually be free from this addiction will not be up to 5. I am telling you the real truth, I am telling you what I have experienced.

How I wish they will gather here, because I am going to talk much about this gambling so that those that wants to be free can be totally free.

Mods, please push this post to front page so it can get a wider view. Thanks

Gambling is a very terrible addiction. It is something that I will not wish for my enemy. Infact, let me be blunt, gambling ruined my life.

I was addicted to this popular betting company in Nigeria, I will not mention its name, but many people already knows the name, especially in virtual football.

It was so bad. Gambling for more than 12 years is not a joke. I lost my education, money, relationship, friends, reputation, dignity, trust, respect, health, etc. as a result of this addiction.

I tried everything to be free, up to no avail, it was a serious battle. Repenting today and going back tomorrow. Once my money finish, I will vow never to go back to gambling again, I will even swear that God should take my life if I ever go back to gambling only to relapse as soon as money enters into my hands.

I thank God that I am finally free from this addiction. I stopped gambling finally on the month of February this year. Ever since then, I have not gambled. seven months have passed and still counting, I have not relapsed back, the urge to go back is not even there.

Let me tell you the truth, you cannot stop gambling by your own efforts and determination only. You need a supernatural power that only comes from Jesus to break that yoke from your life. Not only gambling but from other addictions you may be going through.

Jesus will not only break the yoke, He will sustain you so that you will not go back to this very terrible addiction again.

If you are free from gambling or you are still struggling with this addiction, I want you to gather here you are going to find this thread very interesting.

Praise God for delivering me from this addiction and at the same time baptizing me with the Holy Ghost.

Hallelujah!!!

1Sharon:
Like? The main side effect is pain, but that's common with most surgeries. She'll be back to herself in 2 weeks

Just do some research

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/umbilical-hernia-repair/&ved=2ahUKEwj38aj_mYaIAxXRVUEAHemOCZUQFnoECCEQAQ&usg=AOvVaw1FeRfgDSDJ9WdZpzPwQucy

I have gone through the link and it is educative. Another fear which she is having is can the doctor do the operation well. The doctor claims to perform different kind of operation. Can a single doctor perform different kind of surgeries, I thought he should specialize in one part of the body alone
