Since yesterday I just dey smile like say tomorrow no dey reading everyone post. Am so happy. Baba God I thank you.

itstpia1:
when boko haram tells you they are coming, you hang around in the name of forgiving them when they did not forgive you?







must everyone follow your own narrow definition of love, forgiveness and understanding or risk being judged by you?





i just did.






then who is your sermon meant for?

No I didn't say that. That is life. You survive but after surviving must you leave in hatred? What if you end up unknowingly fall in love with a boko haram child?

2- No it is not a must that everyone that everyone must follow my narrow definition of love, forgiveness and understanding and nobody stand any risk of being judge. But we should remember that verse in our Lord's prayer which goes like this " forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us.

itstpia1:
yes we do.


what you are advocating is people should pretend there is no problem even when you give no solution to the actual one.







reread your first post and explain how you are not judgmental.








you have already demonstrated your view is subjective and biased, but if anyone is having such, they shouldnt need to be constantly reminded its an anti-christian attitude.

Common sense will tell them that even before they reference a bible.

1- when you let people in action or action determine your life, chances of ending up with a story that touches the heart are very high. Because I was treated bad mean must in turn treat them bad?

2- I never ask that people should pretend that there is no problem but admit and work on it, as per solution that I don't have but I do know they need to start with love, understanding and forgiveness.

3- I don't see how that is judgmental but am very open and willing to learn how? So expansiate more.

4- Not all of us are Christian and not all Christian go to church to listen to preaching

itstpia1:
when you have, for example, someone who believes holding on to hate is the only way they can survive, you will judge the object of the hatred for staying away? If the person doing the hating does not know holding onto grudges is counterproductive, then why not preach at that instead of flying to meet the hated?

Now go over my post and you will see that my post is simply for those who think hatred is the only way to survive, holding on to grudges.

But do I blame them for thinking that way? No I don't and am not going to judge them either but to point out to them what it might lead them to.

And am i condemning those that pushed them to that stage? The answer is no

Why? Because they too are pretending to be what they are not, in most cases pretending to be Mr or Mrs perfect.

itstpia1:
when your helping hand was needed, you were nowhere to be found.



now you want to reopen old wounds and still withhold as much as possible the healing people need from whatever hurts and destruction they have experienced up till your sudden display of magnanimity or is it conscience.

you are judging the people you say you try to help, when you insist on tagging them as unforgiving without allowing for the fact that maybe you are the one who wants them to stay in an unforgiving atmosphere surrounded by hate. Can you guarantee everything will be lovey dovey once they take your advice and jettison themselves once more?


if people insist on holding on to unforgiveness for whatever reason, the most you can do is advise them without judging the objects of their hate as the guilty party simply because they do not clone your own personality.

when you have, for example, someone who believes holding on to hate is the only way they can survive, you will judge the object of the hatred for staying away? If the person doing the hating does not know holding onto grudges is counterproductive, then why not preach at that instead of flying to meet the hated?

Hmmm,

Please my post is not about judging or not. As stated earlier a helping hand to those who need it. My intention is to point out that we don't need to let people action or in action determine our life, our happiness and peace of mind. God did not create life to be difficult for us, so why make life difficult for ourselves.

My post is simply saying as one of the point am trying to pass is that "don't hold on to grudges no matter how painful and hurt you are because it will be counterproductive though some situation demand keeping your distance but not hate and contempt.

itstpia1:
dont judge people until you have walked in their shoes @ poster.



there'd be less boko haram if we all "kiyesara".

Bro/sis, am very sorry if it look like am judging someone or judging others. My post is not to judge but to give a helping hand.

There was a time in my life that i made a resolution never to help anyone and trust because of what me and my entire family went through and because of that i made up my mind to owe no one apology if I don't and if somehow i extend a helping hand going against my resolution then they should know it because of God.

I know what hurt is, I know how betrayal feel, I also know how it felt for people to make use of you to score " I am a good person point" and also I know how suffocating it is trying to please everyone to prove you are useful, good and a perfect person. Infact I know how a lot of pain feel including that of trying to be Mr or mrs perfect to score a point, to make sure you never go back to where you are coming from and to also make sure no one reject you.

Today, I thank God for the gift of His son lord Jesus. Today I smile and just try to be myself and ask Jesus to intervene. Keeping to yourself because you see yourself perfect and able and so you need no one to prevent stories that touches the heart is not good because you will still end up with story that touches the heart.

Many people are at the level where they are, far from what they desired and filled with frustrations, hatred and contempt for others until they realised they are just like others no matter the differences, the sooner they realised they too have faults to be work on just like others around them the better for them and everybody.

No matter how bad some people are to us, takes advantages of us in the past, we still need them and accept them. Show them genuine love, forgiveness, care and kindness because in them are lessons, tips and support to make us whole and perfect at the end.

Many relationship or marriage are not working simply because one partner feel more superior, feel more perfect than their partner and that on itself is imperfection. Many marriage or relationship are not working because one partner feel he or she has all the answer and also some partner are living what they are not because they want to be perfect in the eyes of their partner and the sooner they realised their mistake that they are imperfect, people with faults to be work on the better for the marriage or relationship.

Who are we? and how well do you think you know yourself and how worthy you think you are to think you are perfect without a blemish or should i say fault?

The sooner you know that you are not perfect, though wonderfully made by the Almighty God the better and quicker the chance of ending up as a better and a whole person with the crown of perfect resting comfortably on your head.

When you look down on people thinking you are perfect and they are not, the truth is you are the one that is not perfect.

When you do all things by yourself, when you try to please other just because you want them to see you are perfect or good, the truth is you are far away from being perfect.

When you think you are perfect and don't need some people in your life because you feel they will delay or drag you back, then you are not perfect.

Are you a husband or a wife, boyfriend or a girlfriend that sees perfection in yourself but imperfection in your spouse or partner, the truth is you are the one who is imperfect.

You need to realise that you are just a person with a load of faults and the sooner you realised that you need others to become who you want to be, to help build and nurture and clear out Gray edges around each other, the better and quicker your chance.

Don't let hate filled you, don't let discrimination and contempt be part of you. Open up your heart to others but you must be careful here, love them that hate and discriminate against no one.

For God Our Heavenly Father and Creator so love the world that He gave His only begotten Son as a ransom for our redemption that whose so ever believeth in His Son shall have eternal life. He didn't look down on us, He did not hate us but hate our sinful actions, He did not discriminate against us or show us contempt but instead He show us love, care and understanding.

Lord Jesus with His perfection life, a life without fault, a great and mighty person that He Is, embraced us and gave up His Life as a ransom for us. He commanded us to love God and love our neighbours as we love ourselves. If you love God, then you will love your neighbours. If you don't love your neighbours how can you love God.

Out of love comes perfection.

Millicent N Egede.

@blessedbeads, barywhyte, kcprince and to all those whose brother and cousin are going for deliverance i will like us to go there with faith in God that you will go and come back happy and new person in Christ, giving no room to doubt.

Note that the devil is not going to rest knowing fully well that at CCT God is the one in control not any man or one yeye gods that have eyes but can not see or mouth but can not talk. The devil is going to come up with some trick to prevent you from going or even make you to begin to doubt but note that He that you are going to seek His face is far far greater and powerful than the devil and has also make you greater than the devil if not for sin who born devil to come dey torment us.

And don't forget that God is a faithful God who never fail or changes His word. He has commanded us to come unto Him and He will give us rest and God honour His words above His name.

So this coming Saturday go with faith and with full confidence in God words. Go there and seek God face but not any man or woman because God is the only one who can attend to your need no matter how big, serious or impossible to solve it may look to you.

After deliverance, don't waver hold on tight to God, even if the storm gather or it seem nothing is happening because after iron has gone through the furnace one must allow it to cool first to form a solid shape. Learn from peter who after walking some steps on water began to sink because he was afraid of the gathering of the storm and allowed doubt to sink in.

So no matter what don't let your faith to be replace with doubt because my God, JEHOVAH ELOHIM is ABLE

Am happy that the elders are showing face and making this thread more lively and vibrant but please make una no forget to share una testimonies because it will go a long way in encouraging others to hold on steadfastly to Jesus and bring those who haven't seek Jesus to Him.

Hello op,

Being born again is not about learning to keep some religious rules. It is about being born of the Word and of the Spirit.

An unregenerated soul is carnal in nature and essence and such a fellow live to fulfill and pursue the lusts of the flesh which is totally at variance to the will of God and the life of the Spirit. Such fellow finds it difficult to live without the lustful desires and addictions. He/she live as slave to these lifestyle! Romans 7: 16-25. The irony of this canal state of a man is that though he finds it difficult to do without these things, deep down within him, he hate to do them but he lacks the power to free himself.

Now, no one can be born again merely by willing it. You must first realize that you are a sinner in need of the SAVIOUR just like the prodigal son. This realization must be followed by a genuine repentance I.e. a godly sorrow for evil done and a genuine desire to do away with the yoke of sin. It is after these that The Spirit comes in and cleanse and heal your dirty and broken heart. He makes you a new creature and gives you the power to go and sin no more!

Consequently, those lifestyles and addictions you thought you could not do without become repugnant to you. Living a life of holiness within and without in this sinful world becomes easy for you through the help of the Holy Spirit.

My dear brother all you need to do is open up for Jesus and He will do the rest! If He could safe I terrible person like me, then, He can safe anyone! 'Behold I stand at the door and knock....' He wants to dine with u

Ops, he has said it all.

It is not by might or power but by the spirit. Make a conscious effort of repentance of your sins and ask God for the grace to live a righteous and holy life. It is through the grace of God that you will be able to overcome.

I love hip hop music, though i don't do clubbing, drink (occasionally) or smoke but I love and think about sex almost every minute of the day to the extent that it almost become a daily routine and whenever am unable to have sex i result to masturbation. I have slept with different prostitute, have runs girls number save on my phone, romance and slept with people wife ( one unknowingly at first but in the course of the deed while on top of her I got to know) and I started masturbation at the age of 14 or 15 but thank God all na history.

God will not force you to because He is looking for genuine repentance. Take up that big step and genuinely confess your sin before Him and accept Jesus as your as your personal Lord and saviour and continually praying to God for mercy and the grace to live a life that glorify him, my brother believe me you will see changes, things that you like that are repulsive to God will begin to become repulsive to you, you will see that you will begin to loose interest in those things that are against your relationship with God. After repentance and accepting Jesus as your Lord and saviour take a conscious stops to stop those things and where it become too difficult for you to let go do nothing but run to God to intervene.

In my own case i began to loose interest in hip hop music because I found the lyrics so repulsive because they do not glorify God but promoting immorality, pride, vain words, rebellion against God's word. those ladies some of them begin to smell like rotten fish and delete their number and stay away from some of them. Sex become non issue and masturbation that on countless time I have tried to stop just stop like that. In the past if I stop sex and masturbation for an extended period of time, I will see myself having sex in the dream and most cases i woke up with the strong irresistible urge to have sex putting all my effort to nought, in fact i felt like someone possess with the spirit of sexual immorality.

So bro, don't sweat it, take that step to do what you are ask to do and surrender everything totally to God.

Abacha unfortunately a bad leader with some laudable programme to steer this country forward.

And please nobody should compare TAN to YEAA. YEAA stand for what they believe so also TAN and TAN is not asking us to make Jonathan life president but to allow him go second tenure. TAN is not brandishing AK 47 or kashinakov and compelling political parties to adopt GEJ as sole candidate of all the political parties.

TAN is not threatening neither are they denying the news media of freedom. Infact this GEJ administration has done a lot in making information available or more accessible through FOI bill at the federal level something which the state governors have all refused to do and some of them are campaigning to be president and vice president.

So if you must insist on placing TAN and YEAA on the same plane then it won't be out of place to list out the conditions and factors at play then and now so that people can be properly informed.

One thing about YEAA is that bad as it is, it help in the opening of eyes of the niger delta youth to see our backward and degraded their region is because going to abuja was an eye opener infact according to gist some of them even think abuja is outside Nigeria calling it London until they were told that abuja is pure and pure Nigeria. When they ask " how come this place is so different from their region they were told it was the oil money from niger delta that is funding abuja and from there millitancy activities.

Brother, prices of garri is reducing at jet speed. For example, a modul of garri was 350 as of june 2013. But i can tell u that i bought that same modul for 150 two days ago, thats 100+ percent reduction. I believe we are getting there gradually.

Sister enjoy it while it last oh because in no distance future garri go become gold mine abi na scarce commodity because cassava farmers don dey wise up now little by little oh plus the entrepreneurs who are positioning to benefit from the cassava chip deal between Nigeria and china.

Things are happening although in slow motion

Sincere9gerian:
You should have known by now that the criticisms of APC attack dogs is automatic and has never been based on facts

Please let stop this apc and pdp things. Am tired of hearing and seeing it and is slowing and steadily destroying this country. Sometime patiently enlightening them goes a long way

I still don't understand some people stance on the issue. If Christian are the light of the world, what stop us from contesting for elective position or seeking to be a politician.

All we need to is to continue to constantly pray for the grace and strength of the Lord God so as not to fall to the evil manipulation of the enemy.

Politics in Nigeria today is dirty and bloody because good men who has the fear of God in them are staying away from politics. If what we claimed is true that " we know the God we serve" then why are we scared of going to politics.

adedayourt:
So what is the effect of the saved amount on the economy??

Less naira chasing the dollar

More job opportunities for those who are willing to get their dirty.

Another avenue for foreign and local investor to invest in and make more money and contributing to the boosting of the economy that's if they have a honest person managing the investment.

More revenue ( if corruption is checked ) for the fg, state govt, and local govt by way of tax and charges invented by the authorities and revenue collectors

Increased in the financial powers of the farmers

Bro the thing plenty come get multiplier effect join am but settlement here and there and unwise or wasteful spending no go let us see the benefit.

Habeyy:
kudos. to u bro....u are quite. brainy

Bro thanks for the compliment but this things required no brain at all to know. The thing they stare at us korokoro but apc verses pdp no dey make us see again and i tell you if care is not taken this pdp vs apc thing will destroy Nigeria if we don't repent and allow and encourage truth to reign.

Akainzo:
What I find implausible in your post is the notion that the Ministry of Agriculture will provide the necessary enablemen for local production of rice, yet allow them get away with not labelling it as "Made in Nigeria"!

SON and other agencies will definitely cone after them us this was so. Of what use is the government going to be boasting of such achievements if beneficiaries don't label appropriately?

Bro I feel and understand you but this money need to make their money back and most of this money are bank loan so no blame them blame the Nigerian man and woman that refuses to accept and acknowledged anything made in naija as being good or at par with foreign ones.

And if you still don't believe me let me ask you this question " how many company in other sector of the company has son and fg ban or sanction for not labelling their product made in Naija"? If you have the means and the chance take a tour to many of this manufacturing companies and see how many of them is labelling made in naija. Cabelmetal their product is adjudged to be the best in the world in term of standard and quality but how many Nigerian are wiring their house with cabelmetal wire?

Sorry to those expecting cheap food stuff. You can not sow coco yam and expect to reap potatoes.

Once upon a time this rice were wasting away in the storehouse of the farmers because we were complaining of them having stones, not pretty and polished as imported ones and this make this farmers to sell at ridiculous cheap price thereby incurring debt and remaining in poverty.

Well for your information, like Jonathan or not, the wise and truthful farmers like him and not ashamed about him because of what his administration has done in agriculture. I agree the money they claimed to have spent seems not to correlate with what is on ground ( don't forget the Nigeria factors ) but i won't comment further until indisputable fact are presented before me.

This administration took a bold step though costly and i ate ofada rice without stone but people were complaining of the time it takes to cook ofada and other local rice. People were denigration this rice because they were produced locally but thank God that come to the rescue of the farmers, this rice that we look down upon are now being sought after in the international market. So put yourself in the shoe of the local rice producers or farmers and ask yourself this question " between international and local market which is more profitable, which one will increase my financial power" don't forget this farmers have family and needs.

I will also like to advice us to brace up for more price hike in food stuff. If you don't know ordinary ugu " pumpkin vegetable " is the export market. People are now coming to add value to this food. You see people setting up processing and packaging company for garri, yam flour, beans flour ( no need to wash beans and grind to paste before you can make moi moi or akara ) e.t.c you doubt me? Then visit all the supermarket and some shop in your locality.

And for those of us eating rice thinking and feeling on top of the world that we are eating imported rice, for your information that rice you are eating the probability of it being made in naija is 70 percent to hundred. Stallion, mama gold, flour mill to mention but a few are investing heavily in this sector and have started churning out product to the market but being wise investors just like other investors in other segment of the economy, they dare not label their product made in naija. Except flour mill and their rice good.

@blessedbeads thank you.

MrMann1:
Na wa o, is it bad to enjoy the fruit of one's labour, or has she been lying with the news she post on her blog.

Bro, if what the ops posted is true then Linda herself is the cause of her own problem.

Tomorrow service start by 8:30am and between 9:30 / 10am then one on one counselling take place immediately after.

I will like to share this with everyone of us as we look forward to our all round bfp. Something i learnt from the messages i have been consuming.

After prayer come the waiting time and this waiting time is one of the most crucial most of receiving our total breakthrough and restoration. It is this time that if care is not taken all our prayer will become .... ( I reject it by the power in the blood of Jesus in Jesus name)

This is the period we must never let our faith in God to be shaken by the problems of this world and manipulation of the devil. Many people have missed their blessing due to their inability to resist the devil and stay connected to God.

Devil knows what he stand to lose if he should allow you to receive answer to your prayers. When you pray God hear you and immediately answer you back, so know that God is not a wicked God.

Our Lord Jesus Christ who is our Shepherd, our Role Model, our Redeemer as powerful and mighty as He is, He was tested by the devil after He had fast for forty days and forty night. Devil know the implication and the damages Jesus will pose to Him after fasting Forty days and forty night and to God be the glory he was defeated by the spoken word.

So whenever you feel tempted to go back to the past, that urge and craving for that ungodly things or act, whenever doubt want to come in stand your ground and speak the word into your situation and ask God for His grace and strength to bear it through.

So don't give the devil the chance to deny you, your blessing

Is the president really that bad as it being portray by the media and the opposition?

My fellow Nigerian, not all we see or hear are the truth, some are half truth and half lie while some are complete lie in and out of it.

I know some of you would want to say there is no smoke without a fire and no matter the rumour there must be an iota of truth.

But have we sat down to think through, about the rumours we are hearing whether there is a iota of truth in them? And if there is, is the truth the real deal or a manufactured one?

Have we ever sat down to see if the smoke we are seeing is actually caused by a fire? Or the smoke we are seeing is really a smoke? Or the person whom we are being made to believe is responsible for the fire is actually responsible for it or not ?

Reading this some of you may attack me, call me names no problem but do me a favour by searching out the truth before forming an opinion.

2015 is already upon us. Let be wise, do the right things and see Nigeria prosper and soar like an eagle. Don't blame anybody and don't blame God if things should go south in 2015 but blame yourself for not being vigilant and diligent to search out and know the truth.

Believe me 2020 is short way from now but we can achieve more than 60 years before then. As a nation we are destined to be great and a nation of light to the world but it will be a pity if we loose this chance to put things back on track.

May God have mercy on us all and intervene in the affairs of this country in Jesus name.

You are all bless .
