I have twitted more than two hundred thughts and insight on my account guobadia02. Recently,i posted a thought.'it is better to be a nobody in Haven than a king in Hell', because i use facebook as a secondary network all my tweets automatically appear on my wall. A beloved sister, Ann,saw the reflection on faceook and poised a question on my wall, 'he first one is the one sir is there a nobody in Heaven?'. well sit down and hold on to your chairs while we look in to scriptures concerning this question. Like i replied her, the word 'nobody' is an understatement, but that does not nullify the fact that there are rewards in heaven. Even though, we all will walk the streets paved with gold. HEAVEN:from the bible we got to know that there is three places rreferred to as heaven. The first which is visible to all is the 'Atmosphere' . you can see this reference in the book of Job35:5. The second place referred to as heaven is the stellar universe [high heave] s...

Recently, a good friend forwarded to me a litany, of complain or should i say beef that a gentle leveled against 'The Nigeria pastors'. I went through it all and sadly enough, the accusations does not hold any water, but just from a human point of under awareness of what the scriptures says about the work of the ministry. Here i shall carefully spell out the complain and address them in case you have entertained same or just to make you of knowledge and apologetic. I have since written a reply and forwarded it to all concerned, but never a word of acknowledgment have i received both from he who forwarded it to me or the originator. Firstly, he accuse the pastors of flying on jets planes instead of building factories. Well, that looks reasonable from a carnal point of view. In Nigeria we have over two denominations and some of these churches have as many as three hundred branches and the least of about 5 years has an average of one branch. Each of these branches have at least tw...

There is nothing absolutely wrong to dream of a goal we want to achieve under one month, year or even a decade. There is nothing wrong with inspirations, indeed, God said, 'occupy till i come'. Meaning keep yourself busy, innovative, improve and contribute to the world you are living. [Luke19:13] For me, i believe it is really a shame for any individual to leave the world without having contributed any thing in any wise. I earnestly believe that one of the first duty of man when he comes of age is to seek and inquire of the Lord the purpose of his being here on earth. When we fail to do this we stand the risk of being rudderless; drifting wherever circumstance and prevailing conditions takes us and that is dangerous and a blue print for failure. The bible says in the book of proverbs29:18, 'where there is no vision the people perish'. In the book of Genesis11 from verse one, we are confronted with a typical example of what looks right and wonderful, but before God, i...

RELATIONSHIP!from the onset God the father, desires a relationship with man even after the fall of man in the Garden of Eden.There and then in the Garden of Eden, he made provision for man's redemption which was to come in the future.[The seed of the woman] Invitations are given in the books of Isaiah and Mathew respectively.The prophet Isaiah cried out with a holy passion,'come now, and let us reason together,saith the lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow;though they be red like crimson they shall be as wool'. And Mathew echoed,'come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and i will give you rest'. God only starts blessings after a relationship has been established through his son, Jesus Christ.Many a time we hear men say, there is nothing you need that God can not give you because HE loves you'. True, God loves us, but without having a relationship with God via his son [Jesus Christ] there is no way he can be moved to...

The importance of being in a joyful state for every child of God can never be over emphasized.It is in a state of joyfulness that brings down the voice of God from the spiritual rim to your physical hearing. Joy must be in place before you can understand the things of the spirit.without Joy no revelation.[Isaiah12:3] If you are not a happy son of God you will not be a winning son of God. somebody once said, 'happiness is not found, it is created'[Deutoronomy28:47-48] it is compulsory to be happy, it is dangerous to be sad for sadness will brake your defenses. ye shall have a song, as in the night when a holy solemnity is kept; and gladness of heart , as when you go with a pipe to come in to the mountain of the lord, to the mighty one of Israel, and the lord shall cause his glorious voice to be heard..[Isaiah30:29:30] When will He cause his glorious voice to be heard? Only when you come to Him with a song and with gladness of heart!! if there is no gladness of heart, you bec...

Every now and then we revisit our old files, to see if there are some papers to be discarded after some many years in the case. So it was that i stumble on this wonderful creed i want to share with you. it was written with ink so i do not know for sure where i first saw it, but it once again appealed to me and i decided to share it and store it before doing away with the almost shredded sheet of paper. Here it is: Succeed at home first. Seek and merit divine help. Never compromise with honesty. Remember the people involved. Hear both side before judging. Obtain counsel of others. Defend those who are absent not condemn. Be sincere yet decisive. Develop one new proficiency a year. Plan tomorrows' work today. Hustle while you wait. Maintain a positive attitude. Keep a sense of humor. Be orderly in person and work. Do not fear mistakes, fear the absence of creative, constructive and corrective response to those mistakes. Facilitates the success of others. Listen twice as much as you s...

In honor to all mothers and that includes mine, i want to highlight some of the wonderful peculiarities to all mothers that have kept most men and women close to their mothers through all these years. ONE:the making of a child involves the father and mother, but the mothers , but the mother have the privilege of carrying the child before birth wherever she goes. TWO: It is the mother that can feed the child whatever she eats via the umbilical cord while still on the inside. THREE:The first voice and face that a baby recognize is that of her mother FOUR:The body heat that the baby needs is not really from her father, but her mother FIVE:It is the mother who is the first teacher that teaches the baby something. SIX: Some fathers still dares to disown a child, but can a mother dare that? SEVEN:It is the mother that generally molds the character of a child while the father plays the role No matter what you might have against her she is still your mother love her honor her adore her at leas...
