Lamasta:
I disagree with You Sis Analice on this one above. Have you read the book of Daniel chapt 10 where Daniels prayer was blocked by the Prince of Persia which is the Devil for 21 days? It took the intervention of Jesus(Michael) to overcome the Devil so that Daniels prayer can be answered.....Also Rev 12 vs 9 and 10 says more cos Satan can block our prayers as Christians cos everyday He always complains about us to God thats why in vs 10 Satan was cast out so that the prayers of the Saints can get to God.....Satan has powers to block prayers thats why as Christians we need to pray regularly and do WARFARE AGANIST ANY SATANIC MANIPULATION OF OUR PRAYER......Shalom

Brother of Christ

Daniel prayers was not blocked sir,

It was the answer to his prayers that was blocked..

Shalom

The more i read these thread the more i realise opportunities are everywhere make God help man see am...

Christian129.. I want to send you a pm..

There are lot of us who are searching for God where we cannot find him, A lot of us have abandoned the bible and begin to search for God in books.

I just felt compiled these morning to call our attention to these fact. it is good to read but anything you read outside the Bible that challenges some of the assertions or over expands beyond the imagination you need to watch it.

As young Christians who are growing the faith, its not all Christian books you read because there are some you read and you might take out of context and begin to act and believe wrongly.

In summary, Read and research for God but be careful as you do so. Just as it can make you better it can make not too good.

Shalom

I'm just catching up with some things I missed before I joined this forum. I'm amazed with some testimonies here. I just want to add something about tongues. Analice I believe your earlier stances that Satan and his agents cant understand tongues Is actually right. Here are some scriptures to buttress this
Paul writes :"The unspiritual man does not receive the gifts of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned" (1 Corinthians 2:14 RSV). This lack of understanding and discernment would apply all the more to Satan and his demons because they are the total description of carnality.
For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.
1 Corinthians 14:2 KJV
Praying in tongues is speaking mystery and that verses says specifically it's a prayer ONLY TO GOD. if Satan could hear what we are saying, I believe he could easily empower any demon filled man to understand and that verse becomes nullified because man can now hear it.
Now unto another dimension of tongues :
Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.
Romans 8:26‭-‬27 KJV
From that scripture it becomes evident that only "He that searcheth the heart : "GOD" can know what's in the mind of the Spirit when we groan. Satan can't know the mind of the Spirit. I believe the same way only the Spirit searches the deep things of God and we can only have access to them by the helps of the Spirit, (1 Cor 2:8-12) also only God can know the mind of the Spirit. That's why it's a mystery, an encrypted line to the Godhead. So ur earlier standpoint was right.

I pray for these brother, that you would not stray from these path, I pray that the lord would go before you be your shield and your blocker, he will be your guide, you would not fall, your not be defeated by the power and the call of God upon my life you would not be defeated, the lord give you power to oppress your oppressors, And reinforcement of the enemy against the fire of the most high God would silence them in the name of Jesus. God bless you bro.

Continue to enjoy God.

That is why we have the gift called discerning of spirits.

"But strong food belongs to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil." (Hebrews 5:14).

Good to know you are full of age.

The same bible says let who he believe he stands take heed less he falls.

Just an advice and an admonition

etidy:
thank you very much sir, you very right sir. warfare as led by the spirit of God is the way. what spurred me to write this is because i'm tired of people attributing every little thing to demons or one wicked witch from the village or one ancestral curse . you need to see how ignorant people are, there is this church just in the next compound of where i live. they spend 80% of the time fighting imaginary demons, strongmen from the village and ancestral curses(this may be the actual problem sometimes), no prayers for word increase, none for conviction and conversion of souls, little about holiness, little or no sound teaching on core biblical concepts such as faith, grace, the holy spirit and more, guess what the church has had little or no growth in 10 years. My advise to people is when you see a pastor or prophet and all he does is see visions,prophesy, bind and cast and gives little or no room for sound teaching, just run ,you are about to enter one chance be that. Heaven and earth will pass away, but God's word remains the sure thing.

loooooooooooool...

etidy:
You are absolutely right that we need to do warfare, in fact we fight and win battles everyday that we don't know of. I'M JUST WARNING AGAINST EXCESSES. we must be led by the Spirit of God always. The reality is there are three kind of churches and Christians today. we have on one extreme the buttie/21st century Christians who don't wanna do any warfare, they rather ignore the reality of demons and wickedness of the the world, they are the one's where the church has turned into a socializing and networking center . then on another extreme are people who ascribe every problems to demons, they are the ones who are always binding and casting, always seeing visions, these are Christians who never give room to sound doctrine, they never allow the word to dwell richly in them, they are in perennial fear of the devil. they warfare in the flesh. in both cases demon rule and ravage them. but there is a third group, who feed on the word, they are aware of their covenant rights. they know when to engage in warfare and when not to. they make spiritual diagnosis by the helps of the Holy spirit through the word or via the various gifts of the spirit and they apply the right scriptural prescription. this is the triumphant church and that's where God wants his people to be.

God bless you for your wonderful piece.

Is there any place where they will tell you to go to warfare and not equip you with the right weapons i.e the word, understanding and others.

You made some very strong and valid point in your write up.

But what i would tell you categorically is these:

Spiritual Warfare cannot be over done.

Now, For you to engage in effective spiritual warfare you need the basis, which is the been born again, Having a relationship with God among other things.

Spiritual Warfare is needed to subdue the flesh.

Spiritual Warfare is needed to live a holy life.

Can you explain what you mean by Spiritual Ignorance?

Sometimes when you praise the lord you are in Warfare..

I have seen cases where prayers have been made concerning a particular situation and nothing has Happened and the lord said start to do praise and worship. And immediately there was an instant answer, Does that mean there was not warfare, No. because it was praise and worship that provided does not mean warfare did not take place.

I just want you to know that to walk these christian journey to the very end requires Warfare, From the days of John the baptist the kingdom of God suffereth violence and the violent takes it by force, A man can be born again, Living right, Spirit filled and still be under oppression, A man can be born again spirit filled and the enemy can hijack the blessing of God for the life.

What Christ did for us on the cross of Calvary was to give us a ticket to sure victor,a ticket to heaven, Accepting him ensures that when your victory is secured and sure.

Shalom

Wouldn't mind the link boss

kaima2015:
My two cents.....to make high scores on the GRE (to ace it)....start with the Magoosh videos, watch all 280 plus videos to ""learn"" the tricks in the GRE...then move to the Nova Math Bible (if you dont have this you can use Manhattan) or Princeton and then use the Barron for the Verbal Section.....for the Analytical Section I also recommend an ebook authored by Mark Alan Stewart ""Answers to the Real Essay Questions of the GRE"".....the whole essays...it is a current book...and GRE will select an essay question from Essay Pool on their website......you can save time with this on test day....if you read the book from cover to cover

Good Luck

How can i get these book?

ponpon:
Create a new user sir

How do i do that boss??

analice107:
Correct oo. If you know how deep some people are into their GOs

I have a Muslim convert to Christian friend. This guy got converted by Jesus himself. A Yoruba guy. According to him nothing could have convinced him otherwise. And thank God he encountered Jesus directly, that's what kept him as a Christian till today. A particular GO picked him up at that young Christian age, and thoroughly used him.
He practically worshipped that Mummy and Daddy. Everything they said, was Yes. His time and finance, everything belonged to them. When he finally realized it, the guy was disillusioned. one thing alone kept him from returning to Islam; The encounter he had of Jesus.
Can you imagine a young christian being over taken by a GO? The GO took advantage of his nativity and used him to the point of breakage.

Jesus said to Peter, "Feed my Sheep" He didn't day Steal from or kill my Sheep.

Now, that is gross...

That why the Bible says something about some GO been rejected on the last day as workers of iniquity even though they did exploit in the name of Jesus.

A lot of GO have left the path and direction the lord but them when they started there ministry but niw the quest for power, fame ans and na me dai there has consumed some so much wome go diabolical.

That why even though I would say you should respect your GO but no man has God in his pocket, Just as your as your GO can call upon God we too can. Its just a matter of walking very close to God.

I have very deep respect for your madam, the way you write out your message usually wows, you always seem to have the right answer to every question. God bless you and continue to increase you.

I have attended an intercessory meeting and one of the ministers was calling prayer points and I just saw him in front of an alfa like he had don consultation there, I just shake my head, but we have a lot of them, I have been in a ministration and the pastor the lord said these and I hear I didn't tell him that one, he just added his own. What am I saying make all man hokd himself, Grow spiritually, every man can hear God, there is nothing a pastor would tell me now, that I don't already know, when he begin to say another thing I will correct and say daddy GO, Gid did not tell me that.

So, I don't believe its wrong to consult Daddy GO you should kniw they are human being therfore can say nonsense, but when you already have an idea, you would that daddy GO was just saying his own.

Shalom

It could be your user name are not well spelt, I don't think you should worry about it.

How's your weekend madam?

How do you guys cope woth boredom?

Mzflexydeeva:
Good morning you all & how are u enjoying the weekend
I though of the idea of a BBM or WhatsApp group but I don't know how you all will fel about it. We had a group b4 but it didn't last because of some misconceptions. The idea b4 the group isn't hook ups. It's just an avenue to meet new people, share ideas, know each other & also form a family. If in the process u meet some1 u like, no problem but don't think it's going to be a hook up arena. So if interested just quote this message by replying BBM or WHATSAPP..

Any of the above

Hanan Hezron,

Bros you don late.....

As he fresh na him i don receive am

HananHezron:
Wow...so many strayed brethren ....it's even beginning to get worrisome.

Please what is going on? So many have wandered away

Please, tell us, what is it that made you say "I'm done with the Lord" my brother, my sister?

What happened? wuhappun? I mean, you didn't just wake up and decide to give up on your Saviour.

Is it discouragement, difficulties, temptations, ignorance, pressures , did people lie to you saying following Jesus was a mistake,
the lures of the world were much better?

Did you experience something that shocked your faith in the most painful way?

Or do you always have this feeling something is pulling you back when you want to walk with God and you find yourself starting over and over again?

Funny enough, we see most of these brethren seated in church every Sunday with their Bibles in their armpits (for the men) and headscarves tied right to their ears and eyebrows (ladies)
... and we just assume all is well with them...

Meanwhile, this thread depicts something totally different; A sorrowful reality; A reality the Church (maybe) knows nothing about....or chooses to ignore; In this era, where people are more interested in filling their pockets off gullible christians instead of filling the flock with the indiluted Truth;

so many wounded, weary,broken, harassed, distressed, erred brethren here...

So heartbreaking... now i really feel this Bible passage

Matthew 9:36

Seeing the people, He felt compassion for them, because they were distressed and dispirited like sheep without a shepherd.

Or is it me acting too dramatic?
Believe me, spend one week here , every single day, interacting with people on a daily basis, you will begin to feel certain things, you 'll even be able to feel the state of mind of the other person just by reading his/her post



Bros Charles, Temi, Anas, son of thunder,oyeludef and the others don't you think this issue should be discussed?

I'm happy to see all these "returnees", don't get me wrong, but on the other hand the amount of strayed flock is baffling...born-again flock for that matter, not people who are meeting God for the first time.

I don't even want to think of those who died in their backslidden state without having being given a chance to start afresh.

Please, brethren, continue share your stories and experiences

God's Hand is still stretched out to you....

Wow...speechless. Just speechless....

Mehn its not easy to forsake these sinful desires, the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak...

Just like tjayjosh as said.. alot of times underestimation is a major factor but another time feeling of wanting to explore.

A lot of times it very easy to write about how not to fall in to sins and the likes.. but Mehn realistically only God can help a man not fall.. Cos temptations would always come.

There is a place of God and a place of man. Alot of times, it could be looking so harmless and all of sudden something happens and it became harmful.

I just pray for grace everyday cos the am not any better than the people that fell, it just God grace that set us apart..

I remember baxk in the days in school, all my friends were top class bad guys, we use brainstorm on how to get girls, but somehow I can't explain I never got any, I was definitely not dulling it just never pulled through and things dai taya me quick quick.. So most times they were always abusing me, On my street, A guy saw me one day and told you walked with these for guy so amount of years and your life is still straight like these, he said my mum go and do Thanksgiving in church, was I careful am not sure, but things just never worked. These was even I even knew I had a gift or something and the thing dai vex me self a lot of times..

Once a friend, is going to be a negative influence something just happens and the relationships suffers a setback, no matter how hard I try to mend it, it just stops working, likewise if it is a lady and we have been friends and we dig each other and the likes, the moment I think of exploring other options with una, na bye bye be, the babe that was all over begins to vex for me. Chai he dai vex no be small but wetin man go do and then still we never even know say we go do God work.

All am saying, na grace man take dai live though we have been promised not to be tempted beyond our ability but the way and manna devil sets his trap now eh, no be here, very subtle, you no go even know its a temptation until we are deep in it and begins to drop hints that mehn, you have messed up, then you go too hard on yourself then before you know no more quiet time, no more Bible reading and the likes.

Every body has been there the only difference is some went dowon the road realised it was not what they wanted and found there way back, tpbut some never did, ao we would just continue to pray for favour and grace cos without it we can do nothing.

Sorry for the typos

Shalom

gift3d:
Offended? Noo far from it, I really appreciate your contribution, I've started constant prayers now but I noticed that I'm always scared of midnight prayers, don't know why

What the reason for been scared?

gift3d:
Thank you so much, as for returning the money, I discussed it with my mum and she said the same thing, so I plan on doing that immediately things get on track. Once again thank you so much

Well, Do you know what if you would not be ashamed, tell someone to give or borrow you the money and go the present president of the fellowship and let him pray for you.

If you can with stand it, Attend one their Sunday service and let the congregation pray for you.

But if you waiting till get into shape.. it might never to shape, cos by tye time it gets to shape you would have forgotten and a legal ground has been created for tue enemy to feed on
