Thank you Lord for another week of mercy and favor!

psalm118:17 I shall not die, but i shall live and recount the deeds of the LORD.

As you continue doing the right thing;(trying as much as possible to avoid sins) keeping saying the above everyday, and you will never die before your time.
The dead can not praise or tell of his goodness,n as such, inasmuch as you are ready to always testify his good deeds/awesome works, he too will be more than ready to keep you alive... ''As you read, digest and believe this, i decree that untimely death shall never be your portion in Jesus' name- Amen''

over look whatever you face today, and just understand that being alive is worth celebrating every minute of the day!

A well read Bible makes a well fed soul.

The best thermometer of your spiritual temperature is the intensity of your prayer.

Prayer is the key, while constant meditation is the key holder.

Persistent prayer is a liberating force....pray your way out... If God has not been answering prayers, people wouldn't have continued praying.

I am a living testimony of the efficacy of PERSISTENT prayer.

Isaiah 59:1-2 see, the Lord's hand is not too short to save, nor his ear too dull to hear.2Rather, your iniquities have been barriers between you and your God, and your sins have hidden his face from you so that he does not hear.

THIS IS WHY YOU AS A FAITHFUL CHRISTIAN, SHOULD SOMETIMES PRAY/FAST FOR FORGIVENESS OF YOUR KNOWN/UNKNOWN SINS......

Hmm, flee 4rm another man's wife!

Romans 12:12
Rejoice in hope, be patient in suffering, persevere in prayer.

Philippians 4:6 Do not worry or (anxious)about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

James1:13-15 No one, when tempted, should say, 'i am being tempted by God'; for God can not be tempted by evil and he himself tempts no one. 14 But one is tempted by one's own desire, being lured and enticed by it; 15 then, when that desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin, and sin, when it is fully grown, gives birth to death!

2Corinthians10:3-5 Indeed, we live as human beings, but we do not wage war according to human standards;4 For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but they have divine power to destroy strong holds.We destroy argument.5 and every proud obstacle raised against the knowledge of God, and we take every thought captive to obey Christ.

2 Timothy4:7 I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith!


,,,,,,,,,,,,I don't think anyone has experienced obstacles, tough times, trials and tribulations more than myself, but the moment i was CONVINCED that JESUS IS LORD, i have been winning all my battles head on.... I, me and myself have really fought the good fight of faith too, lol
Praise master JESUS!

It is in 1John3:1[b]

John 3 v 1: How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know Him.[/b]

Praise master Jesus. Thank your my savior.

Thank you my savior for your steadfast love...

Only a fool will dispute/argue GOD's existence.....

Believing is seeing! Just believe, and don't dare reason how he operates....If you try that, then the devil will keep celebrating because you are probably off the right track...

Anyways, each to his own,,,,, I am glad that i am not caught in between.... I am quite convinced that my redeemer liveth. No circumstance can wave me. I have decided to follow Jesus, no going back till the end of time....

I am as steadfast as my maker. Thank you ALMIGHTY GOD, n may you have mercy on these so called atheists that are obviously driven n captured by agents of darkness.

Thank you Lord!

Thank you my LORD for another day of mercy, joy, favor, happiness and testimonies.............

Thank you for today my creator king!

Thank for today my creator king!

Thank you my savior for your mercy, favor and protection. You are worthy to be praised and honored .... Whenever joy is expressed, victory is assured and the enemy is discomfited. Halleluyaa!

At 51, i suppose you have understood love and life itself to an extent. However, LOVE can make anyone go foolish n remain stupid all d way, that is LOVE.
When in that pool of love, be it fake or real, just make sure u don't follow only ur heart, activate ur mind once in a while in order not to sow seed of regret n perpetual distress.

Age is no barrier, but sometimes shameful when the gap is in advance double-digits
what are your plans?
planning to have kids together or you just want a lover boy/soul mate? if the latter is d case, then be ready to SACRIFICE n stop digging further.
Take him to where ever you are if you have the means to to so n never envision the consequence,,, it is called ALL FOR LOVE.

Wish you all d best. LOVE IS SACRIFICE!

Thank you lord for giving me the grace to mark another year. O' lord i am grateful.

Thank you LORD for another day of joy.

[b]Africans complain of discrimination in Mumbai, IndiaSambo Davis and his wife Sheeba Rani Sheeba Rani has been ostracised by many friends and relatives for marrying Nigerian Sambo Davis
Africans staying in and around India's commercial capital, Mumbai (Bombay), complain of indiscriminate racism and constant police harassment, reports the BBC's Zubair Ahmed.

Nigerian Sambo Davis is married to an Indian woman and lives in Mumbai.

All his documents are valid, but he was arrested by the police recently on suspicion of being a drug dealer.

He and 30 other black Africans were detained for hours before they were let off with an apology.

But the following day, Mr Davis said that he was shocked to read in local newspapers that they were "arrested for drug peddling".

"The police treat us Africans like dogs," he says.

Mr Davis claims he often faces discrimination when he goes to restaurants or when he tries to rent an apartment in gated middle-class communities.

Nigerian cafe owner in Mumbai

But he is nevertheless one of the lucky ones. He found a decent flat to rent, thanks to his Indian wife.

But his fellow countrymen, he says, still face discrimination: "When they go to rent flats in a normal building they are told - 'you are a black man, you are Nigerian, and you are not wanted'. This is racism."

'Hide and seek'

There is no official data on how many Africans live in Mumbai, but since India's economic progress gathered momentum in recent years, many have come to work in and around the city. Unofficial estimates put their numbers at more than 5,000.

Most of them are engaged in exporting garments to Nigeria and other African countries.

Many others are students, enrolled in the region's prestigious educational institutions.

But there are also hundreds of Africans, mostly Nigerians, who live as illegal immigrants in India. They have either "lost" their passports or their visas have "expired".

Every day, these people play hide-and-seek with the police - if they are caught, they are sent to jail.

Ikeorah Junior from Lagos runs a cafe for Africans in a crowded market on Mumbai's Mohammed Ali Road.

"I don't understand why they [police] have to go from house to house to arrest the people who don't have their papers. If they don't have papers, then deport them, don't put them in jail," he says.

Ahmed Javed, who is in charge of maintaining law and order in the state of Maharashtra, says it is not that simple: "In most cases they have no passports. So, unless their nationalities are determined, they cannot be deported."

Dozens of Africans have taken up residence on Mira Road, a dusty, nondescript town just outside Mumbai.

One "illegal immigrant" there asked me for money, claiming he had not eaten for two days.

He looked worried and told me that he had been approached by drug dealers to work for them.

"I have been here for three years - my visa expired a long time ago. I want to go back home. Please help me, brother," he tells me.

In this neighbourhood, Negro or kaalia (black in Hindi) are the two words indiscriminately used to describe all black people.

"We call them Negro because they are black. They look frightening," says one woman.

"They don't find homes to rent in Mumbai, they only stay in Mira Road. Why? Because of the way they behave. They sell drugs and indulge in other illegal activities. They cannot be trusted," a local man commented, seemingly unaware of the offensive nature of his words.

'Embarrassed and ashamed'

Against such a backdrop of pronounced prejudice, Sheeba Rani married Sambo Davis four years ago and the couple have two children.

Mrs Davis says her parents are enlightened Christians and they blessed them because they thought the marriage was God's wish.

But, she says, she has been ostracised by many friends, relatives and society since her marriage.

Mrs Davis is "embarrassed and ashamed" by the behaviour of the Indian people towards black Africans.

"When I used to go to a mall or if I walked with him, I always wanted him to hold my hand. But when people saw me with him, they thought I was from a bad family or even a prostitute."

Earlier, she did not understand why black people were being looked down upon, but now she says she does.

"Because our society is obsessed with white skin. If I had married a white man, I would have gained more friends and society's approval too."

Mr Davis believes that the discrimination is solely "because I am a black man".

"It's because I am from Africa, I am a Nigerian. I think Indians see us as inferior."

Yet despite the discrimination they face, nearly all Africans the BBC interviewed said they had a soft spot for their adopted country.

They say the relations between India and Africa are "rock solid". Many argued that Indians and Africans are brothers.

"We look after Indians in our countries. They have become rich there. All we want here is for Indians to understand we are not drug dealers. We are not violent. We are just like them."
