HERE IS WHAT THE MOST HIGH GOD HAD SPOKEN, "BEFORE KINGDOMS AND NATIONS CHANGE, MEN MUST CHANGE" I MUST CHANGE, YOU MUST CHANGE, WE (THE PEOPLE, INCLUDING MEN OF GOD AND GOVERNMENT) MUST CHANGE AND THEN OUR NATION WILL CHANGE. PLEASE, PASS THIS MESSAGE ON TO OUR BELOVED BROTHERS AND SISTERS. GOD BLESS YOU ALL.

Student Interview at the Embassy of the United States of America


HINTS, TIPS AND PREPARATIONS

1. One thing I have found out about this visa issue over the years that matters most but it’s the secret of USA student visa but the embassy will never disclose it to the public but will rather want applicants to keep applying and paying fees so they can keep making money is AGE. Your age at the level of your studies really matters. For instance, how will an applicant at the age of 27years old convince the visa officer for genuine studies when your peers are already applying for master or even PhD. Except on rare luck cases, age matters when it comes to student visa. From experience, I will suggest you be between 19-22/23 for undergraduates. 24-27years old for masters etc.

2. As I give you questions and answers later, I will strictly advice you to be CREATIVE IN YOUR ANSWERS BECAUSE WHEN APPLICANTS GO TO THE EMBASSY GIVING SAME ANSWERS, THEN YAWHA DON GAS BE THAT O, LOL BUT ME DON DEY USA ALREADY SHA. PLEASE BE CREATIVE. MY ANSWERS ARE JUST TO GUIDE YOU AND SOMETIMES, YOU CAN ALSO FIND MY ANSWERS BEST FOR YOU CASE ALSO.

3. NEVER ATTEND ANY NON-IMMIGRANT VISA WITH UNSTAMPED INT’L PASSPORT EVEN AS A STUDENT APPLICANT. YOU MUST HAVE INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL EXPERIENCE. YOU CAN EASILY TRAVEL TO PLACES LIKE TOGO, REPUBLIC OF BENIN AND GHANA WITHIN THE ECOWAS STATES WITHOUT A VISA, JUST AN ENTRY STAMP NEEDED.

4. Pay SEVIS fee through relatives/friends in the states or online at www.fmjfee.com. This is compulsory for all students that will be going to the states for study. The payment receipt will be sent to you and should be taken to the embassy as part of the supporting documents.

5. Look straight into the eyes of the interviewing officer throughout when answering the questions because this shows sign of confidence. However, you are not to show over confidence.

6. Dress formally. If you are male, make sure to put on shirt that will enable you stork-in and look formal.

7. At the point of interview, make sure to salute the consular office first and not allow him/her salute you first.

8. At the interview section, make sure to listen very attentively. This is because the American English is twisted (queens English). You must hear what the officer ask you at once. This gives the impression that you, as a student can cope with lectures. Don’t allow the officer ask one question twice before you get what he/she is asking. So, you have to be extra-ordinarily attentive. However, you can ask the V/O to repeat him/her self where necessary.

9. Be formal at your answers. Straight to the point of the question asked and smile where necessary.

10. The interview takes very few minutes. The interviewing officer will want to rush you up but you have to pretend as if you are a slow talker in order to slow down the officer to answer the questions correctly and accurately.

11. Please, never let poverty show on you and never portray to the officer that you will not return after your studies if at all you might not return immediately after your studies.

12. Don’t give answer that will generate other questions. If you do, questions will be generated from the answers you provide.

13. Never let the officer see traveling ambition or anxiety on your face.

14. You must have taken int’l exams e.g. Toefl for undergraduate studies. SAT, Gmat, GRE for masters depending on your major. For undergraduate students, if your school doesn’t require toefl as prerequisite for admission, the embassy might demand it sometimes and this is mostly due to spoken English of some applicants. You cannot convince the Visa Officer on student visa if you can’t speak error free English. So, you can have toefl for undergraduate to be on a safer side. Same goes to SAT, Gmat or GRE for masters program, This is a must as it is a requirement for acceptance into U.S universities.

15. Your composition. You must compose yourself at the interview. No using of offensive language. You can simply answer questions you are not sure of by saying you do not have full idea on it. Be prepared as your interview can go out of planned content but you must ensure you don’t go out of context or frame of what student visa is all about.

16. Finally, when answering questions, please do not answer questions as if you ready-made answers. Even though you already know answers to most questions (As I will share with you later), you must try as much as possible to answer as if you are hearing the questions for the first time. Otherwise, your visa will be denied simply because you are giving ready-made answers.

Mounting of Fire, The lord's chosen, whosoever that stand against my progress in Jesus name die, die die. This is their prayers, is that what God said? You who pray die die to your so called enemy before you become agent of die die prayer warrior, suppose someone in the past pray die die to you when you have not become a chosen or MFM member would you be alive today to say die die to someone? The Bible says,  Romans 12: 12 to 15, Jesus they claim to follow said in Mt. 5:43 to 44. SO WHICH GOD DO YOU PRAY TO? YOU PEOPLE SHOULD REPENT AND STOP DECEIVING YOURSELVES.

GOD BLESS YOU. LOOK AT THE LIVES OF THOSE PRAYING SUCH PRAYERS, NOTHING HAD CHANGED IN THEIR LIVES. JESUS DID NOT INTRODUCE SUCH ORDER BUT RATHER, HE SAID BLESS THEM THAT CURSE YOU. THIS IS THE LEAVEN OF THE PHARISEES BEING INTRODUCED BY TRADITION OF MEN, PREACHED BY MEN OF GOD IN THE CHURCH OF JESUS AND MANY FOLLOW BLINDLY. GOD HAS NO PLEASURE IN THE DEATH OF A SINNER. BESIDES, OUR FIGHT IS NOT AGAINST FLESH AND BLOOD BUT SPIRITUAL WICKEDNESS IN HIGH PLACE. WE HAD ONCE BEEN SOMEONE'S ENEMY AND IF GOD HAD RAINED FIRE ON US THROUGH THEIR PRAYERS, HOW SHALL WE COME TO CHRIST TODAY. SUCH PRAYERS ARE NEVER ANSWERED BY GOD, JUST AN EXERCISE IN FUTILITY. OUR GENERATION IS TOO DEEP IN THE WORD OF GOD AND FULLNESS OF CHRIST TO CONTINUE IS THIS ROOTLESS DOCTRINES. GOD IS RAISING NEW BREEDS OF BELIEVERS AND WE ARE TRANSITING FROM TRADITIONS TO THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST.

@ Aryyor, dasparrow,

YOU HAVE REALLY SAID MY MIND IN THE LENS OF THE WORD OF GOD. WE HAVE A NEW TESTAMENT ORDER, BLESS YOUR ENEMIES, NOT CURSE.

@ Gadols

THE POSTER'S MOTIVE MIGHT BE WRONG FOR POSTING THIS (AS I PERCEIVE), EVEN THOUGH I HAVE NEVER SUPPORTED THE SLAP OF OYEDEPO ALSO. HOWEVER, YOU DON'T HAVE CURSE AND I SAY, WITHOUT MINCING WORDS, YOU NEED TO RE-ASSESS YOUR CHRISTIANITY. I GUESS YOU HAD LEARNT CURSING FROM TRADITIONS OF MEN (OYEDEPO) IF YOU ATTEND HIS CHURCH. IT IS NOT CHRIST'S NEW TESTAMENT ORDER. REMEMBER, ON MOUNT OF TRANSFIGURATION, THERE WAS ELIJAH (REPRESENTING PROPHET OF FIRE YOU ALWAYS QUOTE, MOSES REPRESENTING THE THE LAW AND JESUS, REPRESENTING FULLNESS OF GOD-HEAD BODILY) AND GOD SAID: THIS (JESUS CHRIST) IS MY BELOVED SON, HEAR YE HIM. OUR PERFECT EXAMPLE IS IN JESUS CHRIST NOT MAN OF GOD. HOWEVER, I WILL EMULATE A MAN OF GOD AS LONG AS HE EMULATES CHRIST.

GOD BLESS YOU

God is a God of season and dispensation. God stopped choosing for man after the event in Eden because Adam blamed it on God for choosing Eve for her. In this dispensation, it "Whosoever findeth a wife, findeth a good thing". If you are born again, fill with the Spirit of God, believe me, you don't need any pastor as someone said your pastor is your covering, that statement is heresy because God is our covering and God does that through His Spirit, please be not deceived out of anxiety or your eagerness for marriage, OK.

I will advice you to following this few steps and watch God do it for you.

1. Pray for God favour: A man that will love you and that you will love.
2. Be open minded: You man can come from where or how you least expected.
3. Look good, look attractive, be good to people you meet, attend religious functions depending on your religion and attend social functions also (not in hunger for husband anyway) but these can also be avenues God can show up for you.
4. The Spirit of God will confirm whoever comes your way and there will be natural flow. Don't follow your flesh at this time but allow the inner conviction through the Spirit of God.
5. Don't rush yourself or things: Allow time to unfold event between you and whoever you meet. You need time to get to know each other.

GOD HELP YOU FIND FAVOUR IN JESUS NAME.

Can you tell me how Jesus operates with witches?

Because obviously you have never read Exodus 22 verse 18. So explain that girl's statement when juxtaposed with that verse of the bible.

Help me understand the "baffling irony"!

@ Stagger

It will interest you that Jesus never dealt with witches in His days because He was such an anointed and terrifying being that witches cant come near him, if at all they ever exist during His days but we have examples of demons come and speak to Jesus through people, even Peter (Just as that girl was speaking to Oyedepo under witch influence). If witchcraft spirit had spoken through that young girl that was slapped just as devil/demons/witch(es) spoke through Peter and some people under demonic influence in the days of Jesus, my brother please face reality and the gospel truth, JESUS NEVER SLAPPED ANY OF THEM BUT RATHER REBUKED THE DEMONS/EVIL SPIRITS AND DELIVERED THEM. THIS SIMPLE TRUTH YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND IF TRULY YOU ARE FOLLOWING CHRIST AND NOT MAN. YOU DON'T HAVE TO KEEP DEFENDING THE BISHOP FOR SLAPPING THAT GIRL IN AN ACT OF DELIVERANCE AS YOU DON'T NEED TO BE BORN AGAIN OR SPEAK IN TONGUES IN ORDER TO SPEAK THE TRUTH. I CAN UNDERSTAND IF THE BISHOP HAVE OVER-REACTED AS TO ERR IS HUMAN.

You referred to Ex. 22:18. God is God and cannot change or repent but God is a God of season. Yes, God said: suffer not a witch to live.(Old testament, If you quote that to justify Oyedepo's action, then Oyedepo should have killed the girl to fulfil that verse,ok. Because it says, suffer not a witch to live).

Also, Jesus said He had not come to destroy the law and the prophets but to fulfill them meaning the Law was His type/shadow, everything in the law/prophets was pointing to him as the real thing to come. If not we will still be killing goat like they did under the law. Jesus instituted the New testament (The new ways of doing the old things) by His perfect blood and the season of law was fulfilled, ended and needed no more. So Jesus summed up the law and prophets in One: LOVE. Love your enemies Jesus said, pray for them that persecute you and in doing this, you will proof you are followers of Christ. Paul confirming the words of Jesus said, Our fight is not against physical beings but against spiritual wickedness in high place, rulers of darkness etc.

THIS IS THE NEW TESTAMENT ORDER. WITHOUT MINCING WORDS, PEOPLE THAT PRAYS IN THE CHURCH TODAY THAT THEIR HUMAN/PHYSICAL ENEMIES SHOULD DIE, CURSING OR CALLING HOLY GHOST FIRE ON THEIR PHYSICAL ENEMIES ARE CERTAINLY NOT BIBLE STUDENT AND ARE NOT CHRIST-LIKE BUT JUST BLIND FOLLOWERS. A LOT IS WRONG IN THE CHURCH TODAY AND THROUGH THE LENS OF THE WORD OF GOD, I FOUND OUT IT'S ALL TRADITIONS OF MEN, ESPECIALLY OUR SPIRITUAL LEADERS AND WE HAVE TO BE VERY CAREFUL LESS WE FOLLOW AFTER THESE UNSCRIPTURAL TRADITIONS AS IT IS ALREADY SPREADING IN THE CHURCH AND PEOPLE JUST FOLLOW THINKING IT IS NORMAL OR RIGHT.

God bless you richly.

Nigerian voted him into power or PDP rigged him into power and Nigerians accepted. And now, the man said we have to live with bomb blasting. What an horrible and unbriddled leadership statement! I tell you friends, a silent revolution has already started and it's just a matter of time.

Such women learnt flirting from Eve cos she flirt with the devil and brought problems to womanity,lol

[quote author=Negro_Ntns link=topic=831456.msg9834546#msg9834546 date=1324853363]You know what, Bluetooth, I didnt look at it that way but you are correct. What these people call church are in fact cults where the members are hypnotized against their own willpower to act. . . . . they are servants of the pastor, and not of GOD. Same bs that Bishop Eddie Long used to hoodwink his congregation for support when it was clearly evident he abused young boys sexually.[/quote]The church itself is NOT a cult my brother but anyone or group of people who uses church to carry out occultic practices as such is prophesied by Christ Himself then, it is our responsibilities to cry out for righteouness sake.

Truth is heavy; only a few carry it. Jesus established the church to occupy spiritual and terrestial territories, dismantle evil devices and practices, pronouce Christ's Lordship and earnestly prepare for the Lord's coming. I have observed closely the present day practices of Christ's church from lens of the word of God and found out that the religious leaders have only established traditions of men and many church goers cannot just see anything other than the traditions they met when they came to the church thinking those traditions are right as it has become a common practice. But I tell you friends, a silent revolution has already started.

The zeal of the Lord consumed my heart after watching this video. This is the end time and people looking for quick miracle after being warned by Christ will definitely see anything and call it real. ZOMBIES in the church. There is nothing like anointing to make money or get money anointing. People are manipulated out of their own greed for wealth and quick money as it is obvious they don't read their bibles. Whatever their preachers present to them is acceptable, becomes a practice and when people who check through the bible to see if these things are real in new testament church practices, people say we are the ones that r wrong. BEWARE OF LEAVEN OF THE PHARISEES, JESUS WARNED. MANY THINGS THAT THESE PREACHERS PREACH ARE MAINLY TRADITIONS OF MEN IN THEIR GREED.

Those of us in Winners have already received the focus and the Word for the year 2012. At the end of the day, it is left for everyone to pray unto God to personalise the prophecies and work out his or her own salvation with fear and trembling.

Meaning that ultimately, every man's destiny is in his own hands and it is left for you to decide how you want your 2012 to be.

You are right bro, even when prophetic words are given, some people will still not receive or partake of it, because of doubt, unbelieve and their wrong attitudes.

Change is not an option in God's word brother. It's either we change and our nation change or we don't change and continue the way we are. God is not going to change us by force. It starts with me, you and your household, to the society and then to our nation.

if they obey and serve me (God), they will spend their days in prosperity and their days in pleasure. This is the word of God.

I heard in the past that no one knows them except he who sit on the presidency sit. I heard even the VP doesn't know except the President of the nation. And it is true the operate like cult. The president only knows them after swearing ceremony. I don't really know how true this is but if it is true or there is an element of truth in this information, then I think it will be wise if Nigerians to ask the past presidents who are still alive to speak out after all, death is sure even though it will cost them their lives. God help Nigeria

I DON'T WAIT FOR MAN OF GOD FOR DIRECTIONS AS A BELIEVER, I GO TO GOD IN PRAYERS AND WAIT FOR GOD TO SPEAK TO ME. GOD HAD SPOKEN TO ME AND SAME WORD FOR MY NATION.

Ride on baba Fash,, please tax those religious organisation well (Churches, mosques, shrines e.t.c), they are profit making organisations, they don't do no charity work, the pastors feed fat on the money and keep brainwashing the members that if they don't pay it, there shall be no prosperity, they even slap them on top their money, lol. As a matter of fact aside from the property tax, collect like 2.5% of the 10% tithe they claim to collect on behalf of God that they use by themselves. Aside from you politicians, they are the ones scamming the gullible public. As per the 5% from rent, good move! BUT LET US SEE WHAT YOU ARE USING THE TAX FOR O.
Common guys, how can pastors have fleet of cars and private jets when church members wallow in abject poverty?

GOD BLESS FASHOLA O. I AM A CHRISTIAN, BORN AGAIN AND READ MY BIBLE, ALLOWING HOLY SPIRIT TO LEAD ME. I SAID IT IN THE PAST, THAT IF I BECOME A GOVERNOR OR PRESIDENT, GOD WILLING, I WILL TAX CHURCHES THAT HAS GONE AWAY FROM THE MISSIONS CHRIST GAVE US AND COMMANDED US TO DO INTO ESTABLISHING BUSINESS CENTERS, ESTABLISHING INSTITUTIONS THAT EVEN 95% OF THEIR MEMBERS CANNOT AFFORD. CHRIST NEVER TOLD HIS DISCIPLES WHEN DEPARTING TO GO ESTABLISH INSTITUTIONS, IT'S MAN'S IDEA WITH WHATEVER MOTIVES THAT IS BEST KNOWN TO THEM. THE CHURCHES HAVE EVEN LEFT THE PROBLEMS OF THE NATION ALONE TO THE GOVERNMENT WITH LITTLE OR NO CONTRIBUTIONS FROM THE CHURCHES THAT SPRINGS UP DAILY. I AM NOT AGAINST CHURCHES BUT WHEN THEY HAVE GONE OUTSIDE OF WHAT CHRIST HAD CALLED US TO DO INTO MAN'S IDEA OF ESTABLISHING BUSINESS CENTERS AND INSTITUTIONS WHILE IT IS FEW THAT BENEFITS FROM SUCH, THEN IT WILL MAKE SENSE TO TAX THEM AND USE THESE TAXES FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AS THE CHURCHES HAVE FAILED TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE NATION'S DEVELOPMENT. NOW, WE SHOULD BEGIN TO SEE PASTORS PRACTICE WHAT THEY ALSO PREACH, IF AT ALL THEY WILL BE FAITHFUL TO THE GOD THEY SERVE AND THE BIBLE THEY READ/PREACH. LET THEM START TO GIVE TO CAESER WHAT BELONGS TO CAESER AND TO GOD WHAT BELONGS TO GOD.

@ Poster, to answer your question in my understanding of the biblical issues

1. People are easily moved by their eyes, we tend to measure success by wealth not minding the source of the wealth. Man looks on the outside but God looks on the inside.

2. It's easier for people these days to listen to their preachers (messengers) rather than listen to God and Holy Spirit by reading and studying the bible.

3. I was formerly a member of Rccg in my polytechnic days and members of winners' chapel after my school days. Until I decided to stay with the Holy Spirit by myself, study the bible, allow the Holy Spirit to give me understanding/revelations and I do not allow myself to be moved by miracles (even though I believe in miracles yet with cautions from the bible still.), jets and wealth of any man of God because godliness with contentment is a great gain. Hence, I rather pay attention to the lifestyle of a man of God, teachings and practice in the body of Christ and confirm with the bible teachings.

4. My personal conviction (from the biblical view. You don’t have to share my view but I speak the bible truth anyway) led me away from winners’ chapel, Oyedepo church as we do not have anything such as practices of mantles, handkerchiefs, drinking anointing oil and feet washing is not doctrines of Christ. Is it recorded in the bible? Yes. The fact that it is recorded in the bible does not make it a practice and if the fact that it is recorded in the bible makes it right, then the Celestial churches will be right taking people to beach/river for bath, giving people special soap and doing some sort of rituals, then the Catholics will be right praying to Holy Mary/her image etc.

5. On issue of universities they established that is unaffordable to 95% of their members paying tithes, offerings and special donation and yet, only these greater percentage of their members cannot afford tuitions except for the rich or super rich. This is injustice as establishing a university by churches is unbiblical and not part of the missions given by Christ to His disciples.

@Sagamite,

Me think say this "cretin" of a tin don finish for oyedepo slap session, i no know say some people still dey call for am,lol n cant stop laughing.

Godliness with contentment is a GREAT GAIN. God help us that, some Nigerians stop destroying our reputation abroad while some are trying to rebuild the already destroyed reputation.

Yes, fatherhood and motherhood is more than just exercising joystick n enjoying it.

i feel the passion of tunde bakare n if i am to be in nigeria, i will join the movement. we need revolution in nigeria n some people will rise for such revolution.

@ mac73, TenKobo, maclatunji, tavon and musKeeto GOD BLESS YOU. It's going to take God for innocent followers of oyedepo, who sees the outside but not the things under to be set free. I pray God himself decree from heaven: LOOSE THEM AND LET MY PEOPLE GO.

@ stagger
AM STILL WAITING FOR YOU TO EMAIL ME, I REALLY NEED TO TALK TO YOU.GOSHEN360@YAHOO.CO.UK. THANKS

stagger:
Your posts show you to be more decent than many others here, so here is my answer for you.

First, it is not compulsory that everyone must be in Winners. At the end of the day, choose a church you are most comfortable with and practise your Christianity there, because on that day, no one will ask you which church you belong.

In the university, I made fun of the oil and the mantle, but when I saw its use in the bible and applied it scripturally, it has worked wonders for me and my family.

These are not things taught of men. They are things taught by God in the bible. Some things are done out of belief.
The bible clearly said that judgment must start in the church before it goes outside of it. So rather than join this multitude of tongue waggers, respect your own inner judgement.

If Bishop Oyedepo is guilty in God's eyes, God Himself is the one who will execute the judgement. You have seen what is happening to many American priests. God is not a fool! He knows everyone and will execute judgement on whom he deems fit.

"I will show compassion on whom I will show compassion", God says.

Leave all this people and stay out of their pathway because they are bringing curses on themselves.

Someone very close to me was almost hacked to death physically by a 13 year old house help we had in 1980; a self-confessed witch, who was asked to get a blood sacrifice by her coven.

She walked free because according to the judge, she was too young to be sent to prison. For me, it is personal. Anyone who confesses to be a witch, be it a 3year old or 6 year old, has given himself or herself over to the devil and they are capable of the most horrendous evil acts.

I have seen things I cannot say here; things perpetrated by these witches when I worked in law enforcement. These self-confessed witches do not deserve to live.
