THIS MONTH OF AUGUST

No month rolls out with similar events, talks, situations and circumstances in the same seconds, and minutes, and the hours, that leads up to the 24 hours, which makes up a day. The day may have the same day, like Friday or a Saturday, but it is not possible to implant or fix the conversation of yesterday in it. It comes with its own events and happenings and personal experience for us all. By this time yesterday, some of us were eating while some were visiting a loved one. some were being carried in stretchers into operating theatre while others were giving toasts. while many of us , indeed man would have loved to know how his day will begin and end , but that knowledge belongs to the , omnipotent one, Jehovah God. yet, that does not mean man do not try everyday to pry into their future life, "their tomorrow" . The irony for the Christians who practice this is it weakens their faith. Consulting anything, to tell you, about tomorrow is forbidden by God; the bible tells us in the book of Romans 1:17, For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.[kjv] The bible is not silent about the threat to the lives of believers in this world , but in it all, it assures us of victory over all these entities of darkness, the rulers of the evil world, prince of persia, demonic forces and fowls spirits, and evil spirits masquerading, as angels of light. Read 1 John 5:4 ,For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.Therefore, this month of August is another time, to declare in faith, and with your "spiritual big mouth', and say," that greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world". This month august, the lord shall augment all that concerns you, increase your supply, extent, and make you live in abundance. Welcome to the month of augmentation.

Grit as a virtue of the believer

  There are those who think anything with the slightest sign of grit and hardness   is not for them.  Those who think it should not be for you as a believer; for Christ died for us, taking our suffering and nailing them all to the cross. In today’s believers’ world, this kind of mind set should be resisted and cast out of our lives. Just like life itself does not rely on the soft side of our planet to succeed, but also its rage, for survival, so too do us humans need tough times and happier days too. Any message that tells the believers to be patient, endure and overlook ill will and let go of revenge is the best message ever told. Sad enough, some believers see that as encouraging the devil and giving place to the enemy to operative in our lives. Persecution, is seen as the devil at work and we engage in physical fight if need be .Patience, persecutions, long sufferings, oppression in some cases, maltreatment in others, campaign of calumny, and many other vice are p...

PASTOR BASHING ON SOCIAL MEDIA

 Man Quits Church As Pastor Tells Congregation To Contribute Money For Wife. Omooba Adeleye, has joined the crew. It is no news that social media dome is a hangout for lies, malice and exaggerations in negativity against the pastor. He just fired a good one at pastor[s] using[imaginary?] one as a scapegoat. Why not? If social media attacks kills- pastors ,evangelists and other workers in the "vineyard", especially the ones in Nigeria, would have all been cut down by hails of bullets from critics like Adeleye. Should anyone bother? No, of course, after all, one way to get attention, one way to attack clergymen is to go on social media, post a story that sound outrageous and can not be verified; one that would leave us with our mouth hanging, such as the above handle from X. It is a no brainer to bastardize and portray one religious sect in bad light, in a pluralistic society like ours on social media . Many indulge in this campaign of calumny because any bad news agains...

BIRTHDAYS CELEBRATIONS

  Genesis 40:20 And it came to pass the third day, which was Pharaoh's birthday, that he made a feast unto all his servants: and he lifted up the head of the chief butler and of the chief baker among his servants. Matthew 14:6 But when Herod's birthday was kept; the daughter of Herodias danced before them and pleased Herod. The bible recorded birthday celebration in two different books in the bible and sadly enough the two ended in the death of a person. Some Christian denominations believe these deaths are too much to be called a coincidence and therefore, think there is a spirit associated with the celebration, which is not godly and so believers should shun birthdays. And most importantly, they say, Jesus never asked his birthday to be celebrated, but commanded his disciples and followers to observe the lord supper see 1 Corinthians 11:25, After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood : this do ye, as...
