Stop lying if you want to go to heaven 😇

On paper, the most likely team to win the afcon is morroco...

If Nigeria wins it, it will be indeed a shocker.

Money doesn't solve depression.

With what Francis did to fury's face, I doubt if AJ's face will be without bruises after this match😁

However, AJ just has a slight advantage on experience.

Pastors are people (supposedly) who spend much time in God's presence....

You can't be in God's presence often and not be calm. So calm people are acquainted with pastors.

Navigate your anger in a more productive way....

Become a boxer or wrestler

No surprises... America produces porn like no other and watches porn like no other.

That's why America symbolises great babylon in book of revelations 18.

Can this old fool just shut up

Touch not my anointed.

He who God has blessed no man can curse.

To be God's spokesman takes a lot of courage...so many negative comments against God's servant.

Nevertheless, God will confirm the word of his servant. I believe things will be better.

While the decision to marry is a personal one, it's also the most important decision you can take as a human. it can either make you or marr you, then scarr you for life.

If the young lady trusts her father so much as to seeking his input before making the commitment, I don't think it's wrong. Like they say, if you are not sure, ask.

Lastly, fathers are not usually as intrusive as mothers in their children's relationships. if the husband can treat the girl so well in the marriage to earn her trust and love, she will transfer all the love and trust from her father to her husband, and the man will enjoy her thoroughly.

Hmmmm....

In the olden days of our parents, marriage was strictly by their choices not ours.

Calling her dad before consenting can be seen as being very respectful, but marriage is more deeper than this.

You have to be fully convinced in your spirit that the person you want to spend your life with is truly your life partner.

Too many mistakes people make in the choice of life partner is because they put their 5 senses ahead of spiritual discernment.

I have a chronic anger problem I've tried not to get angry and overlook things but this demonic spirit will just do his thing
Pls help me i really need tips from Nairaland family.don't know I may get help here . Thanks

Most likely you are a choleric temperament.

Cholerics are hot tempered people who are goal driven and have little patience for the weakness of others.

Due to their angry, bossy nature, people tend to avoid and dislike cholerics even their families!

For the choleric, their anger problems is simply a work of the flesh not an evil spirit.

Only the Holy Spirit can help you overcome the works of your anger driven nature.

Spend more time with God, reading His Word, praying and praising Him. His presence through the Holy Spirit will change you to be more loving, patient and calm.

1John.1.8 - If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
1John.1.9 - If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

Constant repentance is critical in our Christian journey and it is important we know this and act accordingly. Repentance is an act of humility before God, a way of depending on him to make us perfect as he is perfect Matt 5v48.

One common trick, the accuser of the brethren often uses against God's children is making us think immediate and constant repentance isn't important. Well, it is and you must learn to adopt a lifestyle of repentance no matter how "LITTLE" your sin was. Remember pride, unforgiveness, anger leading to offence amongst others are all wins.

Let us repent right now of those sins we might have committed knowingly and unknowingly, good thing you are not in the church auditorium where you are asked to come to the front so please despise your pride and shame and do this with all your heart.

Say the Prayer:

Father I acknowledge I have sinned, I confess all my sins, Be faithful and just to forgive in accordance with your word in Jesus name. Amen.

Unfortunately very few Christians understand what repentance is all about. That's why few enter into eternal life and many into eternal death.

What I do is to make a list of sins and browse through them asking God for mercy in any way I have sinned against Him.

For thou, LORD, wilt BLESS the righteous; with FAVOUR wilt thou compass him as with a shield.
— Psalms 5:12

Job 1
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
⁸ And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil?
⁹ Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought?

¹⁰ Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.



We all know the biblical story of Job.

Job was an upright man who feared God to the extent that he offered atonement sacrifices for all his children incase they cursed God in their hearts.

One day the devil in his usual custom, came before God with the angels of God.

God spoke highly of Job, commending his righteous lifestyle. The devil admitted to the supernatural increase and protection on Job's life because of God's favour on him.

In this verse 10, we see a clear revelation:

Satan always seeks a place against us in order to attack and steal our destinies/blessings:

Neither give place to the devil.
— Ephesians 4:27

The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
— John 10:10

The devil specializes in stealing destinies/blessings and cutting lives drastically short of God's expectations.

The devil stole the destinies of Adam and Eve (Luke 4: 5-7) and is still seeking more destinies to devour as a roaring lion (1 Peter 5:.

Unfortunately, from time immemorial, the destinies of millions, even billions of people has been manipulated by the devil and his agents:

Ecclesiastes 10
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
⁵ There is AN EVIL which I have seen under the sun, as an error which proceedeth from the ruler:
⁶ Folly is set in great dignity, and the rich sit in low place.
⁷ I have seen servants upon horses, and princes walking as servants upon the earth.


So many people who were divinely destined by God to be rich and great leaders are poor and operating as nobodies.


What is God's destiny for man?

And God BLESSED them, and God said unto them, Be FRUITFUL, and MULTIPLY, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have DOMINION over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
— Genesis 1:28

God's destiny for man:

✔️Fruitfulness
✔️Multiplication
✔️Dominion

and it His blessing or favour that manifests these three attributes in our lives.

It doesn't matter your calling, profession or career, (teacher, pastor, baker, doctor, singer, artist, cook, etc.) God expects you to be continually fruitful, multipled and dominant by His favour.

I strongly believe that the year 2024 is a going to be a very significant year for the destinies of so many of God's people. So many glorious destinies that have been long buried will be ressurected in 2024.

However for this to happen, we must realign ourselves back to God's favour.

In 2024, we must seek God's favour earnestly by pleasing Him greatly. The key to God's favour is pleasing Him well:

Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, AND FOR THY PLEASURE they are and were created.
— Revelation 4:11

It's only the favour of God that can enable us fulfill our destinies on earth and protect us from the vicious onslaught of the devil these last days.

If you are favoured of God, the enemy cannot touch you. (Psalms 105:15) Even in evil times and famines where majority are suffering, God's favour will exempt you. (Psalms 37:19)

However sin breaks the hedge of God's favoured protection and the serpents will bite. (Ecclesiastes 10:

If there was a time we needed to praise God more than ever before, it's in the year 2024!

Praise pleases God greatly and manifests His favour in unusual dimensions!

Psalms 69
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
³⁰ I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.

³¹ This also shall please the LORD better than an ox or bullock that hath horns and hoofs.

The joy of the Lord is your strength! (Nehemiah 8:10)

As we make God joyful by praising Him, we will benefit greatly from his favour in 2024!

The love of money is the root of all evils.

The love ❤️ of God is the only solution to the love of money.

Besides, all good things, money included, comes from Him.

ChiomaMee:
Yea, what exactly is the essence of marriage Is marriage a purpose we must fulfill Is it all about having kids??

If I don't get married, does it mean I've defiled God's law?? Does it mean I've not completely fulfilled purpose??

Marriage is God's idea not ours.

Infact Adam was on his own minding his own business when God gave him a wife.

You haven't sinned if you choose to remain single, Infact the apostle Paul recommend single life because of the troubles of marriage 😁

Marriage is indeed a necessity (sex, children, partnership, companionship, etc. ) but it isn't compulsory.

You can live a very fulfilling life without marriage, but if you haven't met the right person, please don't stress it.

However, as a single you must be sexual pure. God hates any form pre marital sex. That's why many marry, even to wrong people, because they can't cope with celibacy.

Truly, according to King Solomon, life is vanity upon vanity.

What really is the meaning of life?

Enjoyment?

Pleasures?

Money?

Life is all about fulfilling your destiny and purpose on earth.

And above all, pleasing your maker above all things.

They are now extinct due to the internet and social media.

Even birthday cards are outdated.

When you see two father Christmas fighting, you know say water don pass gari.

I don't blame him.

Man utd has been so inconsistent.

Young man your papa na your papa, Chris Okotie is not your father and will never be I bet you will regret your foolishness very soon.

Unfortunately beauty is skin deep.

Marriage is deeper than just beauty but character is what determines it.

That's the mystery of life...

We don't always become what we preferred to be but what destiny has charted for us.

Unfortunately, some people here will not appreciate the spiritual blessings of reading the bible because they hardly read it.

Them go explain taya. The African Catholics are doing damage control because they know Africans are not receptive to homosexuality.

True 👍

Pastor Adeboye no doubt is the most revered minister of the gospel in Nigeria today....

If sitting on a royal chair could be so controversial.

Mfm and deeper life church don't celebrate Christmas because they believe December 25 is rooted in paganism.

However it's no controversy that Jesus was born on a certain date, though unknown.

If the angels celebrated the birth of Jesus openly to the shepherds, how much more we?

Warning:

If you want to over drink, take water or carbonated drinks.

Overdrinking alcohol to impress others, leads to an early unexpected grave.
