twosquare:Ecclesiastes is a very profound book. You have to know the context around which it was written to appreciate it and not use it to your own destruction. What you've said is the truth and I have not said any thing contrary. I simply said the primary thing is to know God and how he speaks to you. Then He will deliver you from every unforseen disaster either by averting it from coming near you, or granting you the strength needed to go through and overcome the disaster as Job experienced this test as we all do maybe not to the same degree. Life is too evil and unpredictable to be ignorant of God deprive yourself of His Guidance, Protection and Fatherhood. |
whytediamond:Learning to hear God for yourself. The first thing is to acknowledge that Life is both Natural and Spiritual. The Spiritual being what controls/determines the outcomes of the natural/physical. Once you understand this, you will seek to understand the Spiritual. Some go to dark powers. Some go to various religions. I encountered the LORD of the Spirit in Jesus Christ. And by His Holy spirit and Word, I am being led through life. This is the heritage of all who give their lives to Jesus Christ, put their Trust in Him and accept Him as their LORD and Savior. God's Grace multiplied to you and us all. |
BOSSkesh:There was a generation when while collar jobs were truly the saving grace. Today the reverse is almost the case. This is why God's counsel is needed for the season. |
Kobojunkie:Truth is the "common sense" that works for A may not work for B because of their different God designed dispositions/personalities/destinies. This is why you must know how to hear God for yourself. |
oluwaseyi0:You've spoken very well, except for your premise. You really can't make the best decisions/judgment without God. |
Racoon:Some times wisdom can only be revealed, it cannot be explained. When Tinubu was campaigning for Buhari, He was campaigning for APC and sincerely believed Buhari meant well and would perform well. Unfortunately Buhari simply used his platform and severed his relationship with Tinubu. It is not news that Buhari and Emefiele did everything within thier power to frustrate Tinubu from winning this election. Tinubu is not APC. APC is a political party formed from the coalition of ACN, CPC and ANPP. Political interests bring people together. APC was a necessity because of the excesses of PDP. Some of those who joined forces with Tinubu to form APC were aggrieved former members of PDP and other parties. This is not an effort to decriminalise Tinubu. He is certainly not a perfect man. Some of his evils are all over the news. However he is politically correct for Nigeria. He has always fought the good fight for democracy and the good of the West and by extension, Nigeria as well. God does not look for perfect men, He simply looks for people who align with His Will. A perfect person may just be pursuing an agenda or personal ambition that is against God's will. This is where God is Greater than us all. Saul before he became Paul was religiously perfect, yet He was working against God's agenda/will until Jesus encountered Him and revealed to him that He was persecuting Him. Hmm. Besides, no one is perfect. If God were to expose the weaknesses/sins of anyone of us, who can stand? David asked God to search his heart, he was shocked when his lust for Bathsheba caused him to both commit adultery and even murder her husband. Tinubu by God's grace, seems to be in alignment with God's will not only for Nigeria but for Africa as well. We really should be cooperating with Him. It is amazing that it is mostly Christians who should know God's will that are persecuting Tinubu simply because they are blinded by religion. Because APC flagged a Muslim-Muslim ticket. Yet, Tinubu is not a religious man as he identifies with both Islam and Christianity and maybe also traditional religion. But God knows his heart. It is however not surprising that Igbos are also attacking Tinubu because Peter Obi is their will. However some times we must realise that our own seemingly perfect will may not be God's will. Nigeria is facing so many hardships presently because Tinubu is not plastering the problems of Nigeria but going to the root-cause of the heart of the problems. If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do? Until any President is able to sanitze the mechanisms/systems of corruption that has eaten deep into Nigeria and Nigerians, his administration will like wise fail. So far, what we are seeing is the True Picture of Nigeria that has been plastered for so long, being uncovered. By God's Grace, when President Tinubu finally appoints His ministers and gives them the right portfolios, he will put round pegs in round holes and square pegs in square holes. Then we will begin to see results that will benefit well meaning Nigerians and all who genuinely wish Nigeria well in Jesus name. Amen |
iSense247:This is why Peter Obi lost and may continue to lose. His own people are his downfall. He may truly be genuine but he has been idolised. God hates idolatry In every way, shape or form. Also, he may look the part and yet God sees His heart. Had Peter Obi won the election, will igbos not have become more trabalistic than ever? Even at his loss, Nigeria has never been this tribally polarized online and offline, how much more if he had won? Igbos are blessed, truly. It's the pride, lack of honor for others and idolatry (mammon and graven images) that's the undoing. |
YourBestWriter:The Only mistake a person can make is listen to the voice of everyone except the voice of God. Some parents did all what you listed here and it still failed. As long as no one knows tomorrow, any thing can happen at any time and disrupt ones perfectly drafted and charted plan for their family. Man truly is lost without God. Prov.19.20 - Listen to counsel and receive instruction, That you may be wise in your latter days. -- null Prov.19.21 - There are many plans in a man's heart, Nevertheless the LORD's counsel--that will stand. |
success1smyn:I'm still rebooting from the shock. Because e off me. To even go as far as listing her CV without any regard to their respective families and careers. I am simply waiting patiently watching how this pans out. And these are all Christians and Muslims o. Or should I say church and mosque goers. |
MT:With all due respect, your opinion/experience or not, a lie is a lie. And he gave you facts and truths. Hence your opinion/experience was a lie. You should be glad he delivered you from an age-long false opinion. You should thank him and apologise for misleading the public. Apologise to professional movie critics. Apologise to the movie producers and cast. Apologise to the Yoruba community. And Apologise to NL. False opinions is what's destroying this information/social media generation. |
Samantha124:He go join prison choir. This is a clear case of the complexity and dual or multi-personality disorder of the human being. On the one hand he is a rational person who tries to be responsible for his family. But on the other hand, in his elements, he's an irresponsible and dangerous person perhaps influenced by substance abuse and or ego tripping. This really balls down to the Will of man. Who/What is in control of the will of the man? |
Tyktoker:It's to provoke intelligent responses. |
TemplarLandry:My sentiments exactly. All it takes is self-discipline. Unfortunately most don't have it. And some of us are growing in it. |
MrBrownJay1:You have contradicted yourself simply by the use of the phrase "solely be blamed". Sexual engagement involves and should be blamed on the parties involved except for r*pe cases, in which there are exceptions. |
rightopdeep:Book recommendation: Making the Best of Your Critical Years (for Teenagers) by Tope Oni Very important for teenagers. Thank God later. |
FreeStuffsNG:Deep retorts. ![]() |

Fake News On Social Media. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala speaks after meeting with President Tinubu Yesterday: “I keep receiving toxic calls and messages regarding my meeting with the president yesterday, and from those I hold in very high esteem. Honestly, I am shocked at the contents of the messages and the tone of the callers. Has Nigeria sunk this low? A visit I made for the good of our dear nation is what they are using to threaten my life and family! You don’t recognize someone as your president yet begging him to save you from the hands of killers in your region. I am bringing investors to Nigeria using the president’s commendable policies as bait. Is that too difficult to understand? President Tinubu’s reforms might be harsh now but they would birth a new and prosperous nation. I have lost count of presidents, respected Institutions, and investors that have called to congratulate me on Nigeria eventually having a focused leader since the reforms were rolled out. At least, six multi-national manufacturing giants are coming with me by December later this year to see how their firms can have factories here. It’s all part of my contributions to the progress of Nigeria. I am not a politician. I only desire the best for my dear country. It informed my visit to President Tinubu. The world has accepted him as our president, like it or not. May God heal us” – Ngozi Okonjo Iweala Fake News Debunked https://www.google.com/amp/s/punchng.com/statement-of-threats-after-my-visit-to-tinubu-false-says-okonjo-iweala/%3famp |
PureFace1:John.14.27 - Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. That's the Peace I'm referring to. And happiness is different from Joy. Only God gives you these. The subject of death is one that remains a mystery. Some times, the righteous are taken away to save them from an impending evil and imminent wrath of God. Some times people mistake evil people for righteous people. But by their fruits you'll know them. Believers should rejoice when righteous people die. Sinners should be very afraid when people that are considered/confirmed righteous should die. Isa.57.1-3 The righteous perishes, And no man takes it to heart; Merciful men are taken away, While no one considers That the righteous is taken away from evil. He shall enter into peace; They shall rest in their beds, Each one walking in his uprightness. "But come here, You sons of the sorceress, You offspring of the adulterer and the harlot! Isa.57.19-21 "I create the fruit of the lips: Peace, peace to him who is far off and to him who is near," Says the LORD, "And I will heal him." But the wicked are like the troubled sea, When it cannot rest, Whose waters cast up mire and dirt. "There is no peace," Says my God, "for the wicked." |
PureFace1:Tell me, when last did you experience Peace and Joy? |
PureFace1:You raised very good questions. I pray God reveals the answers to you the easy way and not the hard way. |
Helpfromabove1:The caption is misleading. They were not stepped down. They are still undergoing security process. It will be resolved tomorrow. |
labake1:God Almighty. Fear God and every other fear disappears. We are a generation that has been taught to only Love God and not fear God which is why most are nursing one phobia or another. I was battling all sorts of fear viz fear of failure, fear of success, fear of dying, fear of nightmares, fear of powers of darkness, fear of sickness esp terminal diseases, fear of not getting married to a good wife, and especially fear of the unknown which often led to depression and anxiety. I cant explain how it all disappeared. All I can say is God is good. |
Battlefield2:He should pray for salvation first. He has been delivered from the bondage of being stuck in a slave job. Note, not all bankers are in bondage depending on the contract. Once he sorts the spiritual aspect out, he should do a job that can help him build a skillset that he will be able to start on his own and establish himself. He will need to be patient and endure. At leastt give himself 3 to 4 years to become an expert in his chosen field while also building himself in Christ. Life really is not so hard when we take fear, shame and vanity/pride away and accept God's timing and process. Jesus Christ gives you rest from your hard labour and his own labour is relatively much easier. Matt.11.28-30 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light." |

successmatters:All in a bid to get sensational captions, they spread lies. I'm so glad Eniola Badmus set an example. And I hope more celebrities follow suit. While I don't support Aisha Yesufu's reply, thr bigger blame is on the mother-in-law who slapped some one else's adult daughter simply because she married her son. Instead of returning the slap there are better ways of addressing such issue. She should simoly not say a word and wait for the husband to come or call him on the phone to report the issue to him. She should let the son handle his mom. His response would determine her next course of action. This is why marriage is not only between a man and a woman but the man's family and the woman's family. Please we should pray to marry into good homes. If not, we should be prepared for spiritual warfare. Only God can help this kind of wrongs. Because if the foundation is destroyed, what can the righteous do? God help repair our marriages. I'm so excited by the ongoing powerful move of God in breaking ancestral and generational curses in marriages. Please this is the best time to pray for your homes and join church programs with the intention to encounter Christ for yourself and cry for His help over your self and your family. |
Danisaint112:I simply chose to dignify you with a reply because you carry the name Saint in your moniker-deceptive as it may be, I'll give you the benefit of doubt regardless. Tinubu and in fact every Nigerian politician is corrupt. You and I may like wise be corrupt if elected too. That said, my point is we can't find a Saint in the present condition of Nigeria to be elected democratically into office. At best, we will work with what we have. My major point for replying you is simple- please do not mistake foreigners as your allies/friends. The problem of Nigeria is not only Nigerians but Foreigners especially the West: UK and US especially. Nigeria was conquered and enslaved by them. Our 1960 independence was merely a paper transaction. Nigeria has remained under our colonial masters while being ruled by their stooges. Call it a conspiracy theory if you will, but it is what it is. Libya was prosperous under Ghadaffi because he fought against Western powers. What did they do? They eventually found a way to demonize him and riled up a faction of his citizens against him. That's how they were able to murder him. Libya has been thrown into turmoil since. Africa, including West Africa has remained mostly 3rd World because the West has kept it so. If you're a believer, pray for Nigeria. Her enemies are not only internal but more external. They simply use the internal enemies to achieve their agenda of keeping us down using the greatest weapon ever- Divide, Conquer and Rule. Igbos are not fighting a wrong fight concerning Biafra. Igbos are simply going about it the wrong way. And fighting the wrong enemy while calling on their true enemies to save them. It makes Igbos become offensive to non-igbos. When Igbos finally align with the rest of Nigeria, we will easily be liberated. We will then be able to decide if Nigeria stays as an entity or there's a need to restructure or secede. Pray for Nigeria, pray for the East/Igbo. Only God can deliver us cos our enemies are greater than we are in experience, weapons, number, etc But if God is on our side, who can be against us? |
Oyindamolah:Seconded. I'll just add that this may also be an opportunity to learn AFS. If not for the current job, but for the next. He should be humble to learn as much from those he can learn and understudy from in that company. Know how to chew the meat and throw away the bone. His integrity is commendable but he has to apply wisdom cos corruption has eaten deep into every nook and cranny of Nigeria's system and swallows people with integrity if care isn't taken. So He should be as wise as a serpent while being as gentle as a dove. |
talented321:Where does one even begin to speak on a matter as this? 1. May her soul rest in peace. But this is only possible if she had a chance to repent before she died. 2. Why was she at her Ex-lovers apartment? 3. The poor child by God's grace will receive the Grace to turn to God who is the Father to the Fatherless and Mother to the Motherless. 4. I pray the Ex-lover receives speedy judgment in Jesus name. Or finds salvation in the prison after paying for his wickedness, as God wills. This world is evil, especially in this last days. Please Satan knows his time is short and he is roaming around like a raging lion seeking whom to devour. His prey is anyone who does not know who they are in Christ; 1. The unsaved who have not even come into the knowledge of Christ. 2. Church-goers are still seeing Christianity as a religion. 3. Believers who have accepted Christ as their Savior but not as their LORD. They are busy enjoying the dividends of sin not knowing the Spirit in them is a jealous Spirit. God help us all. |
jackcanfield:IGanduje utters lies effortlessly. God will certainly vindicate Maryam Shetty. I hope she doesn't dignify the liar with any reply. His come-uppance meter is getting full already. |
Odin13:Anambra and Edo are same if not worse. Go figure. |
