Sometimes, I tend to believe that the village people syndrome is real. An associate professor of law already, goes back to pursue a master's degree in the same university and all she could do was to malpractice. Oh!

CelebritiesRe: One Genuine Encounter With GOD Is Worth More Than A Lifetime Of Struggles Pt2 by dumahi(m): 2:56pm On Nov 12, 2024
Genesis 26:1-4, 12-14, 16 KJV
[1] And there was a famine in the land, beside the first famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went unto Abimelech king of the Philistines unto Gerar. [2] And the LORD appeared unto him, and said, Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell thee of: [3] sojourn in this land, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seed, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I sware unto Abraham thy father; [4] and I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;
[12] Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold: and the LORD blessed him. [13] And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great: [14] for he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store of servants: and the Philistines envied him.
Godspowerpro, thanks for sharing. You said that encounter must come from penetration which makes it sound like we are the ones who are to EARN this encounter by our persistence. Should it be the result of our hardwork or the result of God's grace?

I know that there are Bible verses that seem to support both sides:
1. It's the result of our persistence (hard work). Example, "work out your salvation in fear and trembling" and "faith without work is dead".
2. It's the result of God's grace. "For we are saved by grace through faith. And this, not of ourselves lest anyone should boast".

Now, I just quoted the encounter between God and the patriarch Isaac. As you rightly said, the encounter led to great instant positive changes in the life of the patriarch. BUT, you can see that Isaac didn't do any kind of PENETRATION before the encounter happened. Instead, it was a case of what GRACE should be. And yet, that was in the Old Testament!

How come we need to do so much penetration in this era of grace before we encounter God's presence? Personally, I've done the penetration many times but got nothing near what Isaac is reported to have experienced (above) back in the days.

So, any clue for me?

Everyone should support the #CallATerroristATerrorist Campaign. Search it on X and know about it. A research found that the way the media reports terrorism in Nigeria is making terrorists more powerful. Now that we are the media, everyone needs to know this.

You re obviously stuck with a certain ideology. And hey... Before you try to play mind games. Just know that we don't care !!!.

THAT SEA ROUTE IS VITAL TO RUSSIA JUST LIKE THE SUEZ CANEL IS VITAL TO EUROPE!!!!!.

OR LET EUROPE AND US ABANDONED THE SUEZ CANEL AND USE SOUTH AFRICA WATER WAYS TRADE ROUTE.

If you don't get this then your education should be question questioned

And before you mention education again try cross check yourself. I'm sure people like you re those who voted Tinubu into power and every little thing you come out to play Nigeria youth this Nigeria youth that.
Just where you're trying to say that someone's education should be questioned, you committed such a big blunder! It's either out of ignorance or the gods are disgracing you. If you are wise, you know what to do. Otherwise, keep fooling around.

PoliticsRe: Peter Obi Under Fire By Men Of God Over Church Vigil Statement by dumahi(m):
I'm a Peter Obi supporter till tomorrow. But, tbh, he messed up in that statement. The singling out was the problem. And, it probably reveals why Obi lost the 2023 election despite the strong human support he got. He may have downplayed the Divine aspect.

kedeojo:
Having try so hard to use the church to get presidency that failed because the core Northerner Muslim voted against him, he now want to pacify them for vote in 2027, so he needed to castigate the church he ran to and even attend various programs and he even with his famous Christian take back your country slogan. Obi is definitely a decisive and a clown. He will never be president of Nigeria. Why did he not tell those churches during campaigns of turn night prayers to night shift. He is just a Conny criminal. He has nothing to offer. If Tinubu didn't rejig the economy, I will gladly support and vote for Atiku.
Even in your deepest privacy, you know that Obi will rule Nigeria better than 98% of everyone who has shown or is showing interest in occupying Aso Rock. But, you Nigerians are legendary at rejecting good things so that you can enjoy complaining against the bad things. It looks like a curse actually. No quarrels though cos I don't have that time.

PoliticsRe: Tinubu Will Win 2027 Election – APC by dumahi(m): 6:06pm On Nov 10, 2024
casualobserver:
It’s not rigging. Obi will insist on running because he knows the window of opportunity for a southern president is shutting. Atiku will insist on running because he knows age is not on his side and this is his last opportunity.

They will split the opposition votes like they did in 2023 and their supporters will insist like they did in 2023 that it was rigging, INEC and judiciary conspiracy.
Do you actually think you hit the mark here?

Tyranny and arrogance seem written in the genetic makeup of many Nigerians. No wonder we keep having leaders that reflect these negative values. I'm surprised that this long line of Nigerian young people are not able to see this tech acquisition and the media razzmatazz that goes with in terms of Russia's faceoff with Ukraine and NATO. Yet, instead of asking nicely to be detailed, they are here laying curses on themselves while exposing their ignorance before the public. Nauseating.
