PoliticsHow Authentic Is Wealthfield Cooperative ? by SirToby(op): 2:26pm On May 07, 2018
Good afternoon friends. Please i need to know the authenticity of wealthfield multipurpose coorperative. They promised to give us grants for business two months after collecting the form but they later requested for 2,500 Naira for training fee which was not stated before. We paid the money but they have not gotten back to us as regards the grant. They called us last month to pick up our certificates but they were not really specific as regards the grants. I'm concerned because my Dad registered as a Manager and they were told to pay 50,000Naira but they later start demanding for other payments that wasn't stated initially. I'm thinking of advising my Dad to pull out, please i need your advise. Is Wealthfield a scam ?

Toby, i feel your fears. but as a christian its not wrong to relate it with your mistake as per sex it may actualy be God's way of telling you to keep your self safer and keep to promise. No amount of drugs would help as this is a connection of your very person and belief.

Well, axnciety or not, its all boiles to the fact that you are pscychologicaly troumatized having wronged your belief and fear damnation. Calm down he knows your weakness, God is not that cruel and He is sure to forgive you as you had sort forgiveness and promised not to fail again.

I would rather want to know what your nightmares look like. Can you just narate one or two to help me advice you?

Your nature may just need to be more cearful and live holier. God may have a special use for you in this life. You may be having a kind of spiritual attack from your act with the lady in question and even she may not know this. Sex is powerful and a good spiritual bond. If this be the case, I would advice you go for deliverance with a true man of God in so do narate the nature of your dreams to him/her, may be not in your very church to avoid many sad things, except if need be. but what's the deal, anything to for your future. do it o!

It shall be well, Calm your mind. it shall pass and I promise, God is still on your side. May be just watching at the moment. stand in faith and win. take care!
Just a normal nightmates, i suspect it maybe as a result of the malaria drugs i took coz it has happened to me before prior to the sex issues.
But the truth is I'm still disturbed, i have asked for forgiveness, i don't whether i should tell my parents that are my pastors about it or tell another pastor i'm closed to. Thanks.
will love to chat with you privately.

From the little I know one of the side effects of Malaria drugs Is that it makes one restless, it caused heavy breathing for me too. I actually think it's the malaria.

Then stop making Vows You can't keep to God, if you did it in an Ogun/sango shrine, I believe you will resist the urge and you will even overcome it Self,
If you strongly believe it's your vows to God, ask God to forgive you, confess to your parents if you feel the need to, Don't be scared of your parents Afterall you broke the vows You made to God without fear of him killing you. And then if you make a new vow keep to it.


About the malaria drugs, if it has finished in your system, you will stop feeling all you mentioned above. I was there last week and it was frustrating...
Alright sis.
Thanks for the advise.
i'm grateful.

UDUJ:
SirToby please don’t bring religion into this. God is not punishing you for any activity you feel you did cheesy

You suffer from Anxiety. Anxiety is a mental health disorder and affects over 60% of Nigerians but because of the way our society is designed we decide not to treat it cause of the supposed stigma attached to such. When people think of anxiety, they think of worrying and stress. They think of fears and a feeling as though something is going to go wrong. Anxiety is seen in thoughts and actions.

But anxiety has a tremendous physical component, and one of the key contributors to those physical sensations is long term stress. This Stress has a tremendous impact on your health, and one of the most common conditions is feeling ill.


The stress from anxiety can cause feelings of very genuine sickness. These feelings often mimic the way illnesses make you feel. Your stomach can feel like it's rumbling and you may even feel like you are having fever or malaria. Feeling sick may be a sign that you've fallen ill, but it can also be a clear sign of anxiety.

When we are stressed and the stress is a prolonged one (e.g. grief), it is physically very hard on the body to maintain this stress response for a prolonged period, so we have to find ways to take our body out of this stress response. Some of these ways are spending time with friends, counselling, medication, mindfulness, making sure we eat and sleep enough, massage, hypnosis etc. There are lots of different things that can help.

Anxiety can weaken your immune system, increasing the risk of suffering from mild illness.

Feeling ill is something that often causes concern. Some people feel so sick that they vomit or experience profound nausea that keeps them away from their activities. Some people experience more than just nausea as well. They may experience other symptoms that are similar to catching a fever, malaria or flu. They may feel like their organss are swollen, or their tongue is dry. They may feel lightheaded. They may even cough or experience severe stomach discomfort, like indigestion.

When anxiety is causing these symptoms, they're not dangerous. Anxiety is simply your body's misfiring of the body's natural fight or flight response, and the way your body reacts is designed to make sure that you know you're supposed to be fearful.
The problem isn't the signals themselves, the problem is that you're experiencing them all the time, often when it is inconvenient. People feel these symptoms for different reasons:

Situational anxiety is actually natural. It's inconvenient, but it's natural. Back in school, if you felt severe illness before a big test, it's because you genuinely feared that test. While tests shouldn't provide that fear, the reaction is not unexpected.

But on the other hand, the one you should fear and what I think you have is Feelings of chronic illness from anxiety which is even more problematic, because when your anxiety won't go away, the feeling of being ill won't go away either. It becomes something that makes you feel worse about your health, saps your energy, and can ruin each and every day (all symptoms you are feeling now).

My recommendation: go to the clinic and see a trained therapist. He will prescribe some good anti-depressants. You will be okay. smiley
Thanks brother.
i will act accordingly.
sincerely appreciate.
i need your prayers also.
Thanks.

Greatzeus:
Sir,we are biological beings and spiritual beings,as long as we are humans we will have the cause to fall into different sickness,or bodily injury or pain etc. You need to treat yourself,and stop believing the lie of the devil that God is punishing you because of sex,its a lie. There are many who also do such immoral things,but they dont fall sick after,does it mean they should keep doing it huh No
If you want to be good,be good,not cause you are afraid of hell or judgement. If you want to serve God,serve God not because he will punish you if you dont,but because
" You were created to praise him,worship his majesty and give glory to his name"....Buchi
Thanks brother. i sincerely appreciate.
just remember me in your prayers, i need a good sleep. Thanks.

If you are idle, try get busy. When you done with work, see movies, listen to music, chat, come on Nairaland

Then it could be nutritional deficiency. So take lots of fruits like orange, banana, pineapple, berries, nuts, vegetables and most important milk or yoghurt before you sleep.

Then write out all your worries, promise yourself not to think about them and discard it.

You can also visit the pharmacy for some antidepressants recommended by a pharmacist. Also use the opportunity to check your blood pressure. If your blood pressure is normal then you are fine

Just calm down okay. You will be fine.
Thanks a lot. This advise is golden. i sincerely appreciate.

hehhehehehehehehehe grin grin grin grin

hahahahahahahahahaha ROFL...... LMAO.... IGNORANCE is a DISEASE.

Bro go and check yourself first in the HOSPITAL..... be sure u have not contracted something since 2015 BUT your problem is that YOU ARE A PASTOR'S CHILD and not necessarily a CHRISTIAN.... because it is VERY CLEAR you do not KNOW GOD or HOW HE SEES YOU...

HMMMMM So You think GOD IS LIKE YOUR EARTHLY FATHER abi? that HE has time to be REMEMBERING YOUR SINS AND PUNISHING U FOR THEM.... lol... MAYBE YOU FORGET THAT JESUS WAS PUNISHED FOR YOUR SINS.... so relax o....

GOD IS NOT PUNISHING U for sleeping with any lady... IN FACT HE LOVES YOU and WANTS you to take HIS OFFER OF A FREE GIFT CALLED RIGHTEOUSNESS and HE IS THE ONE WHO VOWED TO GIVE YOU POWER OVER SINCE AND THE POWER COMES FROM KNOWLEDGE... "They shall KNOW the TRUTH and the TRUTH shall MAKE THEM FREE"

IN THE OLD TESTAMENT GOD COULD HAVE KILLED YOU WHEN U WERE ON TOP OF THE WOMAN BUT NOT IN THE NEW TESTAMENT O.... His Blood washes you daily per second. THIS IS WHY THE GOSPEL IS CALLED GOOD NEWS.... how can it be GOOD NEWS IF WE ARE STILL AFRAID like in the OLD TESTAMENT DAYS, remember to US He is now our FATHER but to the OLD TESTAMENT FOLKS WHO LIVE BY THE LAW He was just their GOD.... SO the treatment is different.

YOUR SLEEPLESS NIGHTS are simply BECAUSE OF FEAR.... you are afraid and also there is HEAVY GUILT o on your heart simply because you feel you can not be forgiven until something BAD HAPPENS TO U.... like a punishment then u will feel justified to be punished for your sins.... BROTHER KINDLY STOP WASTING THE OXYGEN YOU ARE BREATHING..... you and JESUS can not be punished for your sins na, that would make his sacrifice on the cross USELESS.

Pardon me if I seem to write for so long but I was once in DEEPER LIFE and had issues worse than yours and guilt and condemnation made me almost commit suicide but for the fear of hell... it was HOPELESS till I heard a BALANCED GOSPEL ON GRACE.... AND I WAS DELIVERED FROM THE BONDAGE OF FEAR AND CONDEMNATION.

PLS if you want to sleep, take VITAMIN C and ensure your day was very BUSY and you got under the SUN for vitamin D then KEEP ALL ELECTRONIC GADGETS AWAY FROM U UNLESS YOU ARE PLAYING WORSHIP SONGS ON LOW VOLUME IN YOUR ROOM.... STUDY & PRAY WITH Romans 8:1, Psalm 127:2, 1 John 1:9 AND BELIEVE IT.

then most importantly.... STOP LISTENING TO MESSAGES ON CONDEMNATION... START LISTENING TO BALANCED GOSPEL OF GRACE... if you need guidance on how and where to get free materials that will bring you into the TRUTH OF THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST... then PM ME.
Thanks my brother. may God bless you for your advice. i was relieved to some extent after reading through. My heart has been so heavy since morning, doubting whether God has forgiven me. i know i have committed one of the grievious sins in the Bible and i also failed to fulfil my vow. i have just been feeling guilty. The part of your message that Hit me most is: "God would have killed me when I was on top of the woman". Now i know he's a merciful God. How to just clear my mind is what i'm after, i have been trying since morning but it has not been easy. Even my bed looks scared to me, the thought of not being able to sleep before attempting to sleep also haunt me. Thanks brother. someone said trammadol 50mg cures anxiety, how true is that please...

Good evening friends. It all started with malaria two weeks ago and i used Lonart, i was relieved for some period and i started feeling feverish again. I ran a test and it confirmed Malaria is still positive, and the doctor prescribed P alaxin, i used it but i started feeling restless and uncomfortable since saturday, i have not been Sleeping well, even in my short sleep i have nightmares. i started using Piriton two days ago but i have not been feeling alright, my mind is so heavy and my heart beats so fast, i can't just sleep. I have tried to calm myself down and my friends also have spoken to me but it has not
been working and i just don't know what to do.

IN ADDITION: I'm a pastor's child and similar thing happened to me last year, i was so sick that i could not sleep for days, i remember i prayed and promised God never to have any intercourse with any woman till i marry if i can be healed and start having a good sleep. But the fact remains i'm not a wayward child and the last time I had sex prior to that prayer was 2015.

But two weeks ago, i was tempted and i could not resist the urge and i had sex with a lady but the sickness has already began prior to the sex but it has not Metamorphosized to sleeplessness and restlessness. I have asked God for forgiveness and i sincerely promise him never to do such again and i'm ready to stand by it this time. I knelt on the alter after Sunday service to make the vow.


But i'm scared maybe God is punishing me for breaking my vow with him the first time and he wants me to confess to my parents that are pastors. Please i need reasonable advise, i'm so scared to sleep whenever i wants to, my eyes are so red as i'm typing now due to lack of sleep. And which medicine can i talk or what can i do to put my mind at rest. Thanks Friends.
